Story
Dog Name: LuciAge: 2 years old (as of June 6, 2026)Gender: FemaleBreed: Mixed Breed Good with dogs?Yes. Luci loves other dogs and is often much more comfortable around dogs than people. Her family adopted Star in hopes that having a confident canine companion would help Luci feel safer and learn to trust. Luci has bonded closely with Star and has also done well with other friendly, well-adjusted dogs. Good with cats?Unknown. Luci has not been exposed to cats. Good with kids?Unknown. Luci has not lived with or spent meaningful time around children since being adopted. Because she is extremely fearful of unfamiliar people, a quiet adult home or a home with older, calm children who understand her need for space would likely be the best fit. Spayed?Yes. Vaccinations up to date?Luci's last vaccinations were given around the time of her adoption in March 2025, and her family can provide those records. Because of her significant fear of people, handling, and leashes, they have not been able to safely take her to a veterinary clinic since her adoption. They have even tried calming medication to help with veterinary care, but handling remains very difficult for her. Microchipped?No. Due to Luci's fear of handling, her family has not been able to have her microchipped. Rescue Story Luci was adopted in March 2025 through an independent adoption organization after originally coming from Puerto Rico. Her family was told she was friendly, sweet, and enjoyed attention, but once she arrived home, it became clear that Luci was an exceptionally fearful and undersocialized dog. Her family has spent more than a year patiently trying to build her trust. Although she has made progress in her own ways, Luci remains very uncomfortable with close human interaction and generally chooses to keep her distance. She will need a special adopter who understands that building a relationship with her will happen on Luci's timeline, not theirs. Temperament & Personality Luci is an incredibly shy and sensitive girl. Everyday sounds and movements can frighten her, and when she feels unsure, she may bark and retreat rather than approach. She has not shown aggression but communicates clearly when she is uncomfortable and prefers to create distance. Safe spaces are extremely important to Luci. She loves her crate and also seeks out cozy, enclosed areas such as underneath a bed or desk. Underneath all that fear is a dog who seems to want connection but isn't quite sure how to ask for it yet. When another dog receives affection, Luci sometimes becomes curious—or a little jealous—and finds enough courage to move closer and seek attention herself. She also likes keeping tabs on her people from a comfortable distance. Her family affectionately calls her "The Warden" because she is always watching to see what everyone is doing, especially during important activities like folding laundry! Leash Experience Luci is extremely fearful of leashes and is not currently able to comfortably go for walks. Her family has worked on slowly introducing the leash and allowing her to become familiar with it without pressure, but it remains a significant source of fear. She shows interest in following Star outside and joining her adventures, so with an experienced, patient adopter and positive, fear-free training, there may be potential for Luci to continue making progress. Potty Trained? Yes. Luci is generally potty trained and can comfortably go several hours without an accident. She may occasionally have an accident inside, particularly during periods of stress. Crate Trained? Yes—and her crate is one of her favorite places. Luci views it as her safe space and is comfortable sleeping there with the door closed. Where Does She Stay When Home Alone? Luci currently stays downstairs with Star when the family is away, with a gate blocking access to the upstairs. When necessary, she can also comfortably remain in her crate with access to food and water for longer periods. Where Does She Sleep? Luci sleeps in her crate with the door closed, where she feels safest. Her stuffed fox keeps her company every night. Feeding Schedule Luci eats twice daily—once in the morning and again in the evening. Luci's Ideal Home Luci needs a very patient, quiet, and understanding home with people who have realistic expectations for a profoundly fearful dog. She cannot be rushed into affection, handling, leash walking, or interaction. Her adopter will need to be comfortable celebrating small victories and allowing trust to develop gradually. A confident, well-adjusted resident dog would be especially beneficial for Luci. She takes comfort from other dogs and can learn from their example. Luci and Star have developed a strong bond, and their family's hope would be for them to find a home together if the right opportunity comes along. However, they understand that may not be possible. If adopted separately, Luci's ideal home would have another calm, confident dog to provide companionship and help show her that the world—and the people in it—can be safe. A securely fenced yard would also be extremely beneficial because Luci is not currently comfortable walking on leash. Strengths Luci's greatest strength is how well she connects with other dogs. Despite her significant fear of people, she has not shown aggression and prefers to retreat or keep her distance when uncomfortable. She is crate trained, generally potty trained, comfortable being home alone, and finds security in predictable routines. She also shows glimpses of wanting a relationship with people. Those little moments are meaningful signs that there is a curious girl underneath all that fear. What Is Luci Still Working On? Luci's biggest goals are learning to trust people and becoming more comfortable with handling and a leash. These will likely be long-term projects, and her future family should be prepared to work with her patiently and without forcing interactions. If Luci Had a Dating Profile... *"Shy girl seeking a patient, long-term relationship. I'm much more comfortable with dogs than humans, so bonus points if you already have a confident canine best friend. I need plenty of time and space before I'm ready to trust, but if you're willing to let me Why Is Luci Being Rehomed? Luci is being rehomed due to a serious illness within her family that will require significant time and attention over the coming months. This difficult decision has nothing to do with Luci or her behavior. Her family simply recognizes that they are no longer able to give Luci—and her sister, Star—the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Their greatest hope is to find both girls loving homes where they can continue to thrive. While they would love for Luci and Star to remain together, they understand that may not be possible. Most importantly, they want Luci to find a patient, understanding family—and ideally a confident canine companion—who can give her the security, time, and love she needs.

Story
Meet Alfredo Age: 3 years (March birthday)Gender: MaleBreed: Mixed – 30% Labrador Retriever, 30% Great Pyrenees, 18% Pit Bull Terrier, and the remaining percentage made up of several other breeds (DNA results available). Why He's Looking for a New Home Alfredo was adopted through NorthWest Wag Rescue as a tiny puppy after being found in the New Mexico desert with his mom and seven siblings when he was just a day or two old. His family has loved him deeply and invested significant time into his training, enrichment, and care. After much thought, they have made the difficult decision to find him a home that better suits his needs. With two very young children, a busy neighborhood, and Alfredo's protective and anxious nature, they believe he would be happier and more successful in a calmer environment where he can thrive. This decision comes from a place of love and wanting what is best for Alfredo's future. Personality Alfredo is an incredibly loyal, affectionate companion who forms deep bonds with his people. Whether he's joining you for a long run, hiking a trail, or spending the day curled up on the couch, he's happiest simply being with his family. He loves following his people from room to room and enjoys plenty of snuggles and attention. He is naturally protective of his home and family. New visitors can make him nervous, and he'll often bark or growl from a distance initially. However, with calm introductions and a little patience, he settles in quickly and becomes a complete sweetheart who happily asks for belly rubs from people he trusts. Alfredo is sensitive to loud noises—especially fireworks—and prefers quieter environments over crowded or busy areas. He loves running around the backyard and still gets the occasional puppy zoomies. While he's not particularly interested in fetch, he enjoys chew toys, treats, and spending time with his favorite people. Behavior with People & Animals Children: Alfredo has been wonderful with the young children in his current family. However, because of his size, strength, and protective tendencies, his trainer recommends an adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy teenagers. Dogs: Alfredo's behavior varies depending on the environment. He attends dog daycare regularly, where he happily plays with 30–50 dogs and has even boarded for multiple days without any issues. When on leash or protecting his home, he can become reactive toward other dogs. The great news is that he has made tremendous progress. His family has worked diligently with positive reinforcement, bringing treats on walks and redirecting his attention whenever another dog appears. Today, instead of immediately reacting, Alfredo often looks to his handler and eagerly waits for his reward, making walks much more manageable. Continued consistency and training will help him build on this success. Cats: Alfredo has never lived with cats. When he sees them on walks, he is interested and will typically try to move toward them. Training & Daily Life Extensive leash experience House trained and very reliable Crate trained Sleeps in his crate most nights and occasionally enjoys sleeping in bed with his family Crated when left alone for longer than an hour; free to roam for shorter outings Mild separation anxiety that has never caused destructive behavior Health Alfredo is a healthy, happy 3-year-old who takes 40 mg of Fluoxetine daily to help manage his anxiety. Aside from that, he is doing very well physically and has no other known health concerns. Alfredo's Ideal Home Alfredo would thrive as the only pet in a quiet home with an experienced owner or couple who understands anxious or protective dogs. A home with a securely fenced yard would be ideal, giving him space to run and enjoy his zoomies. He would do best outside of a densely populated neighborhood where he won't constantly encounter stressful situations. Most importantly, Alfredo is looking for someone who enjoys an affectionate, devoted companion and is willing to continue building on the training and confidence he's already gained. Strengths Extremely loving and affectionate Loyal and devoted to his family Athletic and enjoys outdoor adventures Well-trained and house-trained Crate trained Happy to relax and cuddle after exercise Has made significant progress managing leash reactivity through positive reinforcement Continuing to Work On Building confidence in new situations Managing anxiety Continuing his success with leash reactivity around other dogs Alfredo has so much love to give. In the right home—one that understands his needs and appreciates his loyal heart—he will make an incredibly devoted companion for years to come. This version highlights his progress while being transparent about the type of home he'll need, giving potential adopters confidence that he's already making meaningful improvements.

Story
Meet Lizzie  Name: Lizzie Age: 2 years Gender: Female Weight: 41.8 lbs (19 kg) Breed: Labrador Mix Color: Brown Spayed: Yes Vaccinated: Yes Heartworm: Negative Good with dogs: Yes Good with cats: No Good with kids: Lizzy has not lived with children, but she has been around them during walks at the park and has done very well. Leash trained: Yes Potty trained: Yes. Lizzy keeps her area clean at her foster home and is expected to adjust quickly to a consistent household routine. Crate trained: Yes Car rides: Does great in the car Personality & Temperament Lizzy is a sweet, easygoing, and social 2-year-old girl with a wonderful balance of playful energy and a calm, affectionate nature. She currently lives at her rescuer’s home with several other dogs and does very well as part of the pack. She has had positive experiences around children while out on walks. At just 2 years old, Lizzy is young and active and loves getting out for her daily walks. Once the fun is over, though, she is equally happy to settle down and relax at home. She walks well on a leash, is crate trained, and is a great passenger in the car. Lizzy is friendly, adaptable, and ready to become someone's beloved companion. Whether it’s joining you for walks and adventures or curling up for a quiet day at home, she is simply happy to be included. Lizzy's Ideal Home Lizzy would thrive in a loving home where she can truly be part of the family. She would enjoy a family that likes daily walks, outdoor adventures, and spending time together, while also appreciating her ability to relax and enjoy quieter moments at home.She could be happy with another friendly dog or as the only dog, as long as she receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship. Although she has never lived with children, she has behaved very well around kids she has encountered at the park. More than anything, Lizzy deserves stability, love, and a family of her own—a home where she can enjoy adventures, cuddles, and all the wonderful things that come with finally belonging. Lizzy's Rescue Story Lizzy's story began when she was just 3 months old. She was found roaming the streets in an impoverished area on the outskirts of Guadalajara, Mexico. The tiny puppy was covered in fleas and desperately needed help. Thankfully, her rescuer saw her and didn't hesitate. Lizzy was taken to the veterinarian and, with medical care, nutritious food, patience, and plenty of love, she made a full recovery. She grew into the beautiful, happy, and loving girl she is today. Lizzy has spent her life knowing safety and kindness thanks to her rescuer, an elderly woman with an incredible heart for animals. As Lizzy has grown into a young and energetic dog, however, providing the activity and care she needs has become increasingly difficult for her rescuer. Now it's time for the next chapter of Lizzy's story. Her rescuer gave her a second chance when she needed it most, and we hope a wonderful family will now give her the forever home she has been waiting for. Ready for Her Journey to the PNW Lizzy is currently waiting in Mexico and needs a committed family before she can travel to the Pacific Northwest. Adoption fee: $650 Interested in giving Lizzy her chance at forever? Apply through northwestwagrescue.org ##2854243##

Story
Meet Hank! This guy's infectious, ear-to-ear grin is guaranteed to brighten even the gloomiest day. While he might start off a little shy, Hank warms up quickly and is a total professional on the leash, making every walk a joyful adventure. Hank is a fetch enthusiast who already knows how to "drop" on command, showing off both his smarts and his playful spirit in the yard. When one ball isn't enough, he'll try to stuff as many tennis balls in his mouth as he can manage, because why settle for one? After the games are over, he’s all about the affection, happily leaning in for cuddles and spreading joy to his human pals. Hank has also done well with crating in his foster home and his Embark DNA results show he's a purebred lab!
