Story
Meet Bruce — the boy who’s been waiting for someone to see the gentle heart behind those big, hopeful eyes.Bruce is a 3 year old, 50 pound American Staffordshire Terrier with a story that tugs at you in all the right ways. He was found wandering as a stray, and although he tried his best to be brave, the shelter environment was overwhelming for him. The stress took a toll — he lost weight, shut down a bit, and quietly waited for life to get better.And then it did.Thanks to Sammy’s Hope, Bruce was welcomed into a loving foster home where he could finally exhale. In just a short time, he has blossomed into the dog he was always meant to be. He’s relaxed, curious about the world, and so affectionate it’s impossible not to fall for him. His appetite is back, he sleeps soundly through the night in his crate without a peep, and he’s rediscovered the simple joy of playing with his toys.Bruce is friendly, eager to please, and knows his basic commands. He’s also extremely food motivated — treats are his love language — which makes training fun and rewarding. His foster family describes him as a sweetheart who just wants to be near his people and soak up the comfort he missed for so long.Bruce isn’t just looking for a home. He’s looking for his home — the one where he can continue to feel safe, cherished, and part of something real and lasting. If you’re searching for a loyal companion with a tender spirit and a heart ready to bond deeply, Bruce is waiting.If you are interested in meeting Bruce, please complete an Interest Form. An adoption counselor will contact you to schedule an appointment.March 14, 2026, 8:09 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  Spade is a gorgeous Boxer Pittie mix who needs a new home without other dogs.  Spade is about 1.5 years old. He is a friendly, happy, wiggly-butt with people and plays with the other 3 dogs in his current home when outside.  He meets some new dogs on a leash very well, but can be reactive to others.  He is housebroken and good in the car, and loves his squeaky toys!  Spade is a big lap dog and LOVES to sleep under a blanket.  He is good with children, but because he can get excited when meeting would be best with bigger kids.  He loves to play in water outside! Spade can be left alone without being crated with no issues.  He has no experience with indoor cats.  Spade is neutered and UTD on all vaccines. Spade does have some anxiety which is being managed with Prozac. He will make a fun and great companion to a family with no other pets.  A fenced in yard would be appreciated.  Spade is available for foster or adoption, or foster-to-adopt.     * adoption fee: $450.00.  Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc  Pet care is not cheap or easy, and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption.  After all that these dogs have been through, they deserve a loving committed home.    How to Adopt Me! If you are interested in learning more about me, and possibly making me part of your family, please go to  wag-on-inn.com . To apply, click  HERE  or on our website, go to Adoptable Pets and Adoption Application. A Wag On Inn volunteer will be in touch soon!

Story
OREO: The Sensitive Soul Who Needs a Quiet Home ​Oreo is a Boxer mix pup who is sweetheart. He is currently overwhelmed and shut down in the shelter. The loud, hectic world around him is his biggest hurdle right now. He craves love and wants to feel safe and connect with people but due to the chaotic shelter environment he is too scared to show his loving side. He has been at the shelter for months being overlooked and will completely shutdown if he is not taken out of that environment soon. Our rescue want to pull sweet Oreo into our care but can't do so until we find a committed foster. ​The Personality: Fearful and shy, Oreo is looking for someone to show him the world isn't so scary. ​The Challenge: He is currently fearful of other dogs and hasn't had the chance to learn leash skills yet. ​The Ideal Home: A quiet, dog-free environment (ideally with a fenced yard) where he can decompress at his own pace. ​Urgency: Oreo is at high risk of behavioral decline without immediate intervention. He needs a patient hero. ​HOW YOU CAN HELP: ​FOSTER: Provide the space, and we provide the professional support and supplies. ​SHARE: Your share is a lifeline. It only takes one person to see this and change a life. ​SUPPORT: Help us fund the specialized care ​"Why rescue an animal if you consider that we cannot save them all? You ought to know the joy of the one who is saved." ​📩 Ready to save a life? Please DM us or email rescuewithoutborders@gmail.com immediately.

Dominick *URGENT*

Boxer American Bulldog

Male, 1 yr 7 mos

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Dominick urgently needs a foster home so that our rescue can pull him from the shelter to avoid euthanasia. He is a big-hearted, affectionate 1.5-2 year old Boxer/Bull dog mix who is struggling in the shelter simply because he loves people too much. He is losing weight due to the stressful over crowed shelter environment since he is being kenneled for a year now. Dominick is one of those dogs whose spirit quietly fades behind kennel walls. He is incredibly loving, people-oriented, and emotionally sensitive, and the shelter environment has been very hard on him. Dogs like Dominick—gentle, affectionate, and deeply bonded to humans—often suffer the most when they’re deprived of connection and routine. Dominick has energy and strength, so he will do best with a foster who enjoys daily walks, playtime, and possibly access to a fenced yard where he can run and decompress. Once his energy is burned, he is more than happy to cuddle, relax, and sleep by your side. He has a classic Boxer personality—curious, playful, intelligent, and full of joy for life. And Dominick loves toys, and if given an opportunity you will see him carry his toys around happily He is: Very affectionate and people-loving Smart and eager to learn Crate trained and housebroken Playful, athletic, and fun A wonderful companion for someone who enjoys an active dog with a soft heart What Dominick needs most right now is a foster home—a calm, loving place where he can finally exhale, feel safe, and show who he truly is outside the shelter. Fostering him will not only save his life, it will also help us learn more about him and match him with the right forever home. ✨ You don’t need to be perfect—just kind, patient, and willing to open your heart. ✨ All supplies and support will be provided by the rescue. If you can foster Dominick—even foster to adopt —you will be giving him the greatest gift: hope. 📩 Please message us at Rescuewithoutborders@gmail.com if you can help or would like more information. Fosters save lives. Dominick’s life depends on it.

Things to know about Bethy: - Snorts like a piglet when excited and while sleeping - LOVES the two kids (ages 7 & 9) in her foster home - Fully house trained - Crate trained - Enjoys sunbathing in the sunny spot of her foster home or lounging on the deck - She’s the weighted blanket you didn’t know you needed Bethy is gentle, goofy, and grateful—and she deserves a home where she’ll never be overlooked again.
