Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.NJ Benny is a handsome Maltese-Poodle mix who is looking for a new home! Benny was adopted to a loving couple a few years ago, but sadly, his owners can no longer care for him due to their ongoing health issues. He is currently in foster in NJ ready to find a forever home where he can live out his golden years. Benny is the sweetest little dog and the most loyal of companions. He gets very attached to his person/people, but he loves everyone, including all animals, though we do think he would do best with older kids who will be gentle with him. Benny is pretty mellow, but occasionally he’ll want to play fetch and keep away with his lambchop toy. Benny would do best in a home that is understanding of the needs of a senior dog and someone who is home a lot. Due to his arthritis, he does not go on walks, but will go out in the yard briefly. He also cannot do stairs and needs to be carried up/down them. He goes to the bathroom outside and on pee pads, but does have an occasional accident. He has cataract and slight age related hearing loss, but overall he is in good health. Benny is micro-chipped and up to date on vaccines, heartworm and flea & tick preventatives. Benny tested negative for heartworm. His adoption fee is $300. After all Benny has been through, he deserves a loving, committed home. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care, at minimum, exercise, enrichment, grooming, etc ... Pet care is not cheap nor easy and adopters should consider the cost, and time prior to adoption. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 30, 2026, 6:42 pm

Story

Meet Maui, a 5 year old Bichon/Maltese mix. He came to Castle of Dreams from a local animal shelter when he was found as a stray in Rahway. Maui is looking for a quiet adult only home with a patient, experienced dog owner that will help him to feel secure again after being anxious in his previous shelter experience. He is a little on the nervous side but once he gets to know you, he is a great and friendly dog. Maui does have some fear aggression so if he feels threatened, he will bite as his way of telling you he is afraid. As with many rescue dogs, Maui is not a fan of thunderstorms, fireworks or loud noises that startle him. Maui loves to go for rides in the car and will be by your side as much as he can. He also enjoys sitting by the window and watching the world. Maui prefers to be the only pet in the home as he loves all the attention...and deserves it too! He is very friendly, housebroken and listens well. He just needs some TLC from a patient owner who is willing to work with him on his fears to help him feel loved and safe. Maui is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. He will make a great lifelong companion if given a chance to feel comfortable, loved and not threatened.

Story

Meet Bella and Chanel, a gentle bonded pair who are searching for a loving and home. Bella: 13 year old Maltese Mix. Bella is a sweet, completely blind senior girl who navigates life with a brave and tender heart, finding her confidence through the presence of Chanel. Bella may not be able to see the world around her, but she feels every bit of it especially the love she receives from Chanel and her people. Bella is calm and deeply affectionate. She loves nothing more than curling up on the couch for a long snuggle session, and she'll happily nestle right on top of Chanel while they wait for their person to come home. She enjoys short walks outside, but once she's done her business, she's ready to be scooped up and held close. For Bella, the world feels safer in someone's snuggly arms. Chanel: 15 year old Poodle. Chanel is the quiet guardian of her little family. She is mellow and easygoing. She loves being outside at her own comfortable pace and greets her favorite humans with the sweetest howls of excitement when they return. Chanel will wait faithfully by the door until you're home. She is also a gentle, watchful soul who has made it her life's purpose to look after her best friend, Bella. Despite living with arthritis, she moves through each day with grace. She's always keeping one eye on her bonded companion. The moment Bella barks or seems unsure, Chanel goes right to her side, offering the kind of calm reassurance that only the deepest love can give. Chanel is definitely the perfect loving family dog, she prefers settling into her bed only when the whole family is together. Chanel would thrive in a patient, loving home where she can continue to be Bella's anchor, and where someone will be hers in return. Bella and Chanel are both good with cats and are trained to do their business both outdoors and indoors with the use of pee pee pads. If you’re looking for gentle companions who are always ready to warm up your day, Bella and Chanel are waiting to meet you. Please fill out and submit an adoption application today.

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Stitch! Stitch is a 6-year-old, 10.5-pound Yorkie-Maltese mix who is basically the definition of a professional cuddle bug. This little gentleman is sweet, loyal, and ridiculously lovable—the kind of dog who will politely follow you around the house like your tiny, fluffy assistant. Rescued from the NYCACC alongside his housemate, Chloe (available soon!), Stitch has settled into apartment life with ease and has officially mastered the art of being the perfect city pup. His favorite hobbies include leisurely neighborhood strolls as if he owns the block, charming every neighbor into giving him pets, and offering the best standing hugs (yes, he stands on his back legs just to hug you ). Need a shadow? Stitch is accepting applications. Looking for the ultimate couch companion? He's already clocked in. Stitch is a smart little guy who is eager to please and listens well. He's almost fully housetrained and continues to make great progress with his training. He sleeps peacefully through the night in his crate and is perfectly content there, but if he had it his way, he'd be a full-time professional cuddler. Whether it's the couch, the bed, or simply lying at your feet, Stitch is happiest wherever his favorite people are. Stitch is looking for a quiet, low-key home where he can enjoy the simple things in life. He's not the type to demand constant activity—he's happiest relaxing by your side and soaking up your company. Stitch has a funny quirk where if he can scoot under the couch or table - he will! He can be shy at first, but opens up quickly. He is living with a dog and came from a home of many animals. If you're looking for the easiest roommate you'll ever have, Stitch just might be your perfect match. Apply to meet Stitch before he steals someone else's heart! Vaccinated for rabies, DHPP, bordetella, neutered and microchipped. Current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. To apply to adopt Stitch, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available. Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable dog, or final size of any of our adoptable puppies. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the dog into our rescue. Questions: adopt@waggytailrescue.org ##2795179##
