Buster Made It to Wisconsin
Buster made it safely to Wisconsin on 1/17/26 after being rescued from a kill shelter in Georgia. He is now settling into his foster home in Wisconsin and is doing wonderful.
Buster’s story is one of second chances. This 1-year-old Chihuahua mix was surrendered when his previous owner no longer wanted him, but that hasn’t dimmed his joyful spirit. Now safe and out of the shelter, Buster is showing just how special he is.
Weighing just 12 pounds, Buster is a super awesome, sweet, and low-key little guy. He has an easygoing personality and loves being around people. In his foster home, he has been affectionate, calm, and happy to just be near his humans.
Buster appears to be potty trained, crate trained, and leash trained, which has made his transition into a home smooth and stress-free. He gets along great with other dogs, cats, and kids, making him a wonderful fit for many different types of households.
Now that he’s in Wisconsin, Buster is ready to find his forever home where he can continue to feel safe, loved, and secure.

4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $150 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.
