Story
HISTORY: Trigger came into rescue in March 2023 as an owner surrender in eastern Washington. She looks to be about a 2-4 year old Boxer / Labrador mix with 3 legs. FOSTER UPDATE: Trigger is doing great and loves going for walks and rolling around in the grass. She has earned her nickname "Sugar" - she is a very sweet dog. She loves to wag, cuddle, get belly rubs, and give kisses. She can be cautious with new people, but she warms up pretty quickly and is a cuddler - leaning in for hugs, gently putting her paw on your leg to ask for snuggles, and laying her head or body on your lap when you sit or lay near her. She has a lot of love to give. She has good coordination and endurance and loves to go on long walks (with little breaks). She gets pretty excited about bunnies and would like to chase them, so she does best walking on a leash. She seems to be more comfortable with smaller dogs rather than bigger dogs.

Story
Meet Brighton – Your Loyal, Goofy Adventure Buddy! Brighton is a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix with soft fur, mesmerizing eyes, and ears that could launch a thousand smiles. Found abandoned with his siblings along a highway in eastern Washington, this gentle boy has shown nothing but resilience, heart, and a longing for a place to call home. Smart and eager to please, Brighton is both house- and crate-trained. He walks beautifully on a gentle leader halter and would thrive with continued training to help him become the best walking companion he can be. With his energy and love for the outdoors, Brighton would make an excellent partner for hiking, running, or long walks. Though shy at first, once Brighton warms up, his goofy, playful side shines through. He loves chasing soccer balls, playing fetch with tennis balls or rope toys, and then happily curling up nearby while you relax. He’s loyal to his core and simply wants to be wherever his people are. Brighton has lived with dogs of all sizes—including a tiny 6-pound pup and a senior blind beagle—showing his gentle, respectful nature. Because he can be a bit sensitive, Brighton will do best in a home without young children. If you’re looking for a faithful companion who will keep you smiling on the trail and melt your heart at home, Brighton is ready to be your best friend. Could Brighton be the missing piece of your family? *************************************************************** ADOPTION INFO Dog adoption fees include: - All Basic Dog Vaccinations - Rabies - Bordetella - Flea & Tick Treatment - Spay (Up to $400) - Neuter (Up to $300) - Microchip & Registration All adoption fees go toward the care of all dogs and cats in our rescue.

Story
Lab mix puppy NEEDS A FOSTER!! Meet Callie! She and another pup, Capri, have had a really unfair start; they were recently dumped in Eastern WA. Someone witnessed the person dumping them with tied their legs together, presumably so they couldn't run. Isn't that awful?! Both pups are about 6 months old and seem to be in good health. Though we recently noted that Callie does have a tooth that needs to come out, and she still needs her spay. Callie is very friendly and still trusting of people.. She has been described as having "typical lab energy.." She needs someone to continue working on basic training with her. She has bright, friendly, puppy energy. The very best thing about Callie is, she just has a heart of gold. She is a wiggly puppy that sometimes jumps up on you, BUT she is SO affectionate and loyal. She just wants love, and to be loved so bad. She wants to please you. She is quite honestly the most loyal dog we have in our 30 dogs in rescue. She is good with other dogs. She briefly had a foster home for a couple weeks, and loved running and playing at the sniff spot that her foster mom took her too. She will need dogs of similar age and energy though, as she is still quite puppy. Sadly that foster could no longer have her, so we are on the hunt for someone to help her get out of a cage again! She would do best with a calm home environment, with someone who has the time to focus on her, and who is consistent, and ideally working from home or around alot. We are seeking a foster who can match her energy, train her, and also give her a place to recover so she cat get spayed and get her dental work done. Given her age, we REALLY need to get her out of the kennel. Would you be willing to provide a foster home, even just for the short term? If so, please go to our website redwagginrescue.org to fill out an application!

Story
Meet Marley! Marley | 1-Year-Old Shepherd Mix | Male Marley was rescued from the streets of Los Angeles with his brother and is slowly learning that people can be kind. He’s calm, watchful, and starting to open up in a safe environment. He’d do best in a quiet home with a patient adopter and possibly another confident dog. Marley isn’t looking for loud adventures—he’s looking for someone steady to trust. If you believe in slow, meaningful bonds, Marley could be the one. ********************************************************** ADOPTION INFO Dog adoption fees include: - All Basic Dog Vaccinations - Rabies - Bordetella - Flea & Tick Treatment - Spay (Up to $400) - Neuter (Up to $300) - Microchip & Registration All adoption fees go toward the care of all dogs and cats in our rescue.
