Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Eden — the queen of the wiggly butts!    She’s a 37-pound mystery mix (maybe heeler? corgi? dachshund? pure cuteness?) and fully grown in all her adorable glory. Eden’s house-trained, dog- and kid-approved, and ready to play her way right into your heart.  Cats? Depends on the cat — she’s got opinions. This little lovebug is special, sweet, and oh-so-ready for her forever home.  Eden is fixed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and just completed her heartworm treatment.  Her adoption fee is $450.    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 these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. 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
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Milo came from a large hoarding situation with more than 50 dogs, so he is still learning that people can be safe and kind. He may be a little shy at first, but once he feels comfortable, Milo forms a deep bond with his person. In foster care, he has become incredibly affectionate — even jumping into his foster’s arms for cuddles once he trusts you! Milo would do best in a calm, quiet home where he can decompress and continue to build confidence at his own pace. He can still be a little nervous or skittish at times, so a patient adopter who will give him love, time, and reassurance will help him truly blossom. Because of this, he would do best in a home without young children. He enjoys the company of other dogs and could do well with a canine companion. Milo also ignores cats, preferring to simply observe them from afar. Milo is housebroken with only an occasional accident, walks well on a leash, and is eager to learn. While he doesn’t know many basic commands yet, he’s a smart boy who is quick to pick things up. Once Milo bonds with you, he becomes your loyal shadow — happy to curl up beside you, follow you from room to room, and share quiet moments together. He has so much love to give to the person who gives him the chance he deserves. If you’re looking for a gentle, devoted companion and are willing to help a shy dog continue to grow, Milo may be the perfect fit. Milo is up to date on vaccines and is fixed. His adoption fee is $450.    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.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Bullet is with our rescue partner in Louisiana is available to come to NJ if we find a foster or adopter. Bullet is a timid sweetheart who blossoms slowly but he is worth the wait. This mellow boy is the definition of chill; happiest when lounging in a sunny spot watching the trees and birds.  He's house trained, gets around wonderfully with other dogs and would love to have a canine buddy to help him settle into his new home.  While he needs a little coaxing into his kennel, he's otherwise easygoing and endearing.  If you're looking for an adorable, gentle companion who brings peaceful energy wherever he goes, Bullet can't wait to meet you.   Bullet is fixed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $450.    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.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Spruce is in NJ waiting for an adopter.  Meet Spruce — our shy little sapling learning to trust again.   When Spruce first arrived, the world felt big and scary. Sudden movements made him freeze, and he wasn’t sure what gentle hands were for. He’s slowly learning that soft voices mean kindness and that love can be patient.   Spruce still feels safest in his crate, but every day he shows tiny signs of bravery—just last week, he ventured out for the first time, exploring for a moment before returning to his cozy spot. He’s a mellow soul who’s simply looking for a calm, quiet home where he can heal at his own pace.  He’d do best with:   – A peaceful home (no young kids)   – Patient humans who’ll let him come around in his own time   – A yard or small potty area while he learns leash life   – Other gentle pets are perfectly fine   Spruce may start out timid, but with love and time, we know he’ll blossom into the loyal companion he’s meant to be.  If you have a calm heart and a quiet home, you might just be the safe place Spruce has been wishing for.  Spruce will be up to date on vaccines. Wag On Inn will arrange for neuter at The Spay and Neuter Center of New Jersey in Holmdel. Adopters must live within driving distance of Holmdel, NJ. His adoption fee is $450.  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 these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home.
