Story
My wife and I adopted Ivory from the shelter in early 2020. We wanted another dog and thought she'd be a good buddy for our other dog. She was very timid and nervous at first but slowly got comfortable with her new home. The first episode of her snapping was when my wife went to bathe her. My wife picked her up and she attacked her biting her right hand leaving it bruised and bloody. Since that incident see regressed back to being very timid, anxious, and on the defensive with almost any action someone may do even if not directed to her. I've tried my hardest to be patient with her and I'm made some progress with her and her anxiety over the years but she's still snapped on me and my wife multiple times. Luckily she hasnt drawn blood from biting us in a long time but she still has her episodes. I know she can be a sweet and good dog but due to the changes in our lives over the last 3 years with moving and new roommates I don't think her home environment is the best for her anymore.

Sissy wants someone to call her own, a lap she can nap on and a person to spoil her. She is an 8 lb sweet natured girl who is best suited to a quiet home. She is 6 years old.

Story
Tiny has been bounced around a few times that we know of throughout his life, with the last 2 homes leaving him neglected and scared. He loves to sleep in his Mickey Mouse tent bed, cuddles with his foster mom and eat his wet food. Our vet estimated him to be 8-10 years old. He has had his teeth cleaned, along with the rest of his vet care, and is now ready to find a loving, quiet home who will cherish this gentle boy.

Story
Bacon joined us from our local shelter where he was scared and acting out - but as soon as he joined his foster home his personality completely changed and he became a playful, cuddly little man! Bacon gets along well with other dogs and loves nothing more than to be snuggled. He has one eye that is shrunken and doesn't work, likely something he was born with and it doesn't slow him down in anyway. Bacon is approximately 4-5 years old and weighs 5 lbs.

Story
Lydia is a young dog with an old soul. This sweet girl is nervous in new situations, she needs patience and treats to feel safe. Lydia prefers women to men and would thrive in a home with only one or two people for her to bond with. We haven't had her around kids but would guess that young, active kids would be too much for her so an adult home is recommended. Lydia enjoys sunbathing, napping on the couch and being hand-fed yummy treats. She weighs approximately 8 lbs and is maybe 1 year old. Please send in an application at www.waggingtailsrescue.org

Story
Hi there, my name is Dottie. I am about 1 1/2 years old and weigh about 9 lbs. I was abandoned on the streets and spent several months in a veterinary office waiting for my family to claim me, which they never did. As a result of spending so long in a kennel, I am sometimes a bit feisty! However, I love other dogs and want to play... and play... and play. I don't have great play manners, though. Remember- I spent several months in a kennel so no one taught me the ropes. A well mannered adult dog would be a great fit to teach me appropriate doggie behaviors. I would be great with one other calm dog or as an only dog. I am good with older kids. No kids under 12 years old please.I want to play with kitties, so I do tend to chase and annoy them, but I never try to hurt them. Like all chi chis, I am a little barky. What can I tell you... I have a lot to say. Want to meet me? Please fill out an application and we will hook up!

Story
Raina is the happiest when she's around other dogs. She snuggles with her foster brothers and follows them around. She is very sweet and would give you kisses all day long if you let her. She is still learning to trust people. She's afraid to go outside for now, but she's very brave and working on it. She's not potty trained but uses puppy pads in the house. Raina needs a patient and loving home so that she can continue to build her confidence and trust. Raina would not do well in an apartment. She needs a backyard of her own.

Story
Sassi is the best snuggler. She wants to be with her person at all times and will follow you anywhere. She loves to sleep snuggled up to you on the couch or bed. She will eat anything she finds on the floor so you must be careful not to leave anything out. She loves to play and has the zoomies outside with her foster siblings. Sunbathing outside is one of her favorite activities. Sassi would do great in a home with other small dogs but she does resource guard with food so feeding separately is best. She is still working on potty training but does well with puppy pads inside.
