Story
Meet Joy 🌸 Joy is an absolute sweetheart with a heart as big as her cuddles. She’s a true velcro dog who loves to be close, included, and part of whatever her people are doing. Joy gets along wonderfully with her foster dog siblings, though she does show some food and toy guarding, so she eats separately. She’s perfectly content with this setup and actually seems to enjoy having some quiet alone time to relax and recharge. Joy is non-destructive and hasn’t chewed on anything she shouldn’t. Joy’s Details: • 🐾 2 years old • ⚖️ 60 pounds • 💉 Vaccinated • ✂️ Spayed • 📍 Microchipped • 🚽 Potty trained Joy is a loving, snuggly companion with a gentle soul, a bit of spunk, and so much affection to give. She’s ready to keep healing and thrive in a home where she can be someone’s devoted best friend. 👉 Apply to adopt today! https://www.underdogrescueranch.com/adopt 💖

Story
Good With Kids: Kids over 12 Good With Other Dogs: Yes Good With Cats: No Housetrained: Yes Crate Trained: No Walks Nicely On A Leash: Yes Knows Basic Commands: Yes Energy Level (Couch Potato, Moderate or High): Moderate to Low Special Needs: Physical Fence: N/A Favorite Toy / Activity: Cuddling on the couch and/or sun-bathing. Arrival story: Loved dearly by her family, Beta is seeking a new home due to changes in their circumstances. Approximate age / Weight: About 6 yrs old / 65 lbs. Personality: Beta is a 6-year-old pibble mix with a heart as big as her love for couch snuggles. If you sit down, she’s already planning how to sit with you—preferably touching. She lives for being close to her people and feels happiest when she’s included in everyday life, whether that is lounging in a sunny spot, supervising chores, or greeting guests like long-lost friends she’s thrilled to finally meet. She’s friendly and likes other dogs. Probably smarter than a 5th grader, you’ll want to keep her brain busy with enrichment toys and puzzles 😊. Beta has good house manners and is a generally easygoing gal… as long as her humans are nearby. When left alone too long, she can get anxious and may express her feelings through some light redecorating. Right now, she lives with a family that while home often there is a toddler making Beta anxious with his unpredictable movements and loud noises. Speaking of, she’s a great watchdog. Hears everything and wants to know what is going on. Cats? Hard pass. Beta says that’s a boundary. New Home: Beta is looking for a home where she doesn’t have to wonder where her people went. An adopter who works from home, is retired, or is around most of the day would be her dream come true. She’d love a home with another friendly dog, but she’d also be perfectly happy as your one-and-only shadow. Her ideal humans want a dog who is deeply affectionate, excited to greet friends, and happiest just being part of the daily rhythm of life. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will warm your couch, your heart, and every sunny spot in your house—Beta might just be your girl. 🐾💛 CONTACT: Please contact wtdr@waggintailsdogrescue.org with any questions or submit adoption application via our website www.waggintailsdogrescue.org/adoption-application.

Story
💘🐾 Love Is in the Air — Meet Aurora! 🐾💘 Aurora is hoping to find her perfect match. 💕 She’s a beautiful 4-year-old German Shepherd who is back with the rescue and ready to find her forever love. Aurora’s story hasn’t been easy, but her heart is still full. After being left behind when her previous owner moved, she remained loyal, loving, and resilient. Now she’s ready for a fresh start with someone who will choose her forever. 💖 Why Aurora Will Steal Your Heart: • Sweet, affectionate, and full of personality • Loves to “talk,” play with squeaky toys, and cuddle up close • Leash-trained and fully potty-trained • Does well with kids 🐾 Aurora can live with other dogs and cats, but she will need slow, proper introductions, to help her feel comfortable and confident. Aurora thrives in a calm, loving home where her person is around often. She can be a little anxious at times, so she’s looking for a patient, kind human who will give her the reassurance she deserves and in return, she’ll give you endless devotion. If you’re ready for a loyal Valentine who will love you unconditionally every day of the year, Aurora is waiting. 💞🐕 👉 Apply to adopt: https://www.underdogrescueranch.com/adopt
