Story

WISE is entirely volunteer-run and all of the donations made to our rescue go directly back to the animals in our care. By partnering with veterinary practices that support our work, we are able to save animals lives and restore them back to health. While some animals only need standard care, others require more extensive veterinary or behavioral care. Regardless of which dog you are applying for, we are looking for adopters to support our program with a minimum donation of $850. The donation may or may not be directly applied to care of the dog you're adopting but rather goes toward supporting all of the dogs in the rescue. We appreciate the understanding of our potential adopters. Please keep this in mind prior to applying.NAME: SnowballBREED: MalteseDOB: May 24, 2019 (6 years 5 months)Home Recommendation: Snowball would thrive in a gentle, patient home that can help her build confidence at her own pace. Shes quite timid and often cowers when someone approaches, but once shes in your arms, she melts right in and will peacefully fall asleep on your lap. Shes beginning to show small signs of trustlike coming forward to lick your hand before retreating againand these moments show just how much love she has to give once she feels safe. A quiet, understanding household that can offer reassurance, steady affection, and a calm environment would be the perfect match for her.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Snowball spent her entire life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill. When her 'breeders' decided they no longer had a use for her, they planned to discard her. Thankfully, WISE was able to step in and rescue her. Now shes ready to start that new chapter!Personality: Snowball is an absolute cuddle bunny who wants nothing more than to be by your side. She happily sleeps in bed with her person and finds comfort just being close. If she knows youre home but not right next to her, shell let out the sweetest little howl until you returnher adorable way of asking for reassurance and company. Shes affectionate, devoted, and truly happiest when shes wrapped up in love and attention.KIDS: Yes, kids 10+DOGS: Yes, a patient dog willing to teach her the ropes on how to be playfulCATS: YesTraining: Snowball currently has a crate set up inside a pen, and while she likes to sit in her crate with the door open,being confined makes her uncomfortable. Shes still learning how to navigate the world on a leash. A harness works much better for her than anything around her neck, especially when paired with a coat that helps it fit securely. She is still figuring out both outdoor potty routines and pee-pad training. She will eat certain dog cookies if theyre placed down for her to eat. Shes very much at the beginning of her training journey and will blossom with patience, consistency, and a gentle approach.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

Please keep this in mind prior to applying.NAME: Ginger SnapBREED: Maltese x Yorkshire TerrierDOB: Aug 26, 2013 (12 years 2 months)Home Recommendation: Ginger Snap is a sweet golden girl who would thrive in a calm, patient homeideally with someone familiar with senior pups and their gentle rhythms. She enjoys one slow walk a day, long naps, pup cups, and cheese. Some days shes energetic and curious, and other days shes content to sleep in. Shell make the perfect companion for someone who appreciates a mellow, loving, easygoing senior by their side.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Ginger Snap spent her entire life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill. When her 'breeders' decided they no longer had a use for her, they planned to discard her. Thankfully, WISE was able to step in and rescue her, giving her a second chance to experience the love and warmth of a real home. Now shes ready to start that new chapter!Personality: Ginger is a laid-back girl whose perfect adopter will understand that her favorite things in life are simple: resting, eating, and having a little fun at her own pace. Shes a senior soul who enjoys comfort, cozy naps, gentle affection, and snacks more than adventure. She offers endless sweetness, calm companionship, and the joy of loving a dog who knows exactly who she is.KIDS: Yes, kids 10+DOGS: YesCATS: YesTraining: Ginger Snap loves her daily walk, but its important to let her choose the pace and directionthis is her special time, and she enjoys exploring on her own terms. Because she can tire quickly, her person should always bring a bag in case she wants to be carried part of the way. When she wakes up, her routine works best when shes picked up immediately and taken outside so she could go potty. She does still have accidents, and her adopter should understand that this comes from age and occasional confusion, not misbehavior. At night she sleeps comfortably in her crate, though truly she can curl up and rest anywhere and be perfectly content. With patience, consistency, and kindness, Ginger will be a loving and easygoing companion.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

Hes an easygoing, gentle pup who adores spending time with his people and aims to please. Whether hes wrestling with his doggy foster siblings, snoozing belly-up in his bed, or proudly carrying around a favorite toy, Nutter Butter is pure joy. Hes discovering the fun of puppyhood from walks around the neighborhood to car ride adventures and hes loving every minute of it!KIDS: YesDOGS: YesCATS: YesTraining: He's making great progress with potty training and leash walking. He sleeps in his crate at night and do best with structure and consistency.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Puppy mills overbreed to the point where they produce more dogs than they can sell. Dogs like Nutter Butter were rejected for reasons ranging from birth defects, being born with the wrong color fur or eyes, or just simply because no one wanted to purchase them. When the dogs are not sold, the puppy mills destroy them, and it is legal to do so. WISE has recently partnered with a group to save these unwanted dogs - healthy, unhealthy, and/or with birth defects - who are destined to be killed for no reason.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

Story

Meet Frosty the Toothless!This adorable 12 year old Maltese still has a lot of energy and spunk for his age. He is a social needy little guy who loves his walks and being with his people. He can be a bit of an anxious marker and would do well with belly bands for housebreaking and a consistent schedule. He has no teeth after a long overdue dental and is feeling much better with his painful infected teeth gone. Please submit an application for this sweet senior!

Not good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

It was 5am. The call went out: Send the Police! 🚨 Adorned in protective gear, the police approached the house timidly - unsure what they'd find inside. The homeowner had called frantically. A monster may be lying in wait...As the door sprung open, a demon emerged: fluffy, 12lb, 8 year old Christopher. Street name: Christo-FURY.Look at him the wrong way, and he'll have something to say. Interrupt his nap and you'll never hear the end of it. While he may look like a perfectly cuddly lapdog, he is ANYTHING BUT. That 5am call to the police about a 12lb dog terrorizing her? That's true...and, that's how Christopher finds himself with us now. A wannabe police dog, this Maltese/Shih Tzu mix found himself on the outside looking in at the Police Dog Academy. HIs bark found insufficiently fearsome, and his tiny frame unfit for the riggers of police life. Now: all bark, no badge. Many things offend our little ChristoFURY. On the short list: men, children, strangers, neighbors, delivery people, repairmen, vets, groomers, sharing food, big or energetic dogs.Christopher definitely has some good qualities, too. He's quite a charmer with the ladies - often able to hide his devious side. Christopher gives plenty of warning if you learn his rules and listen to them. He's a good walker, non-shedding, and smart. Overall, Christopher is in great health other than a mild heart murmur which doesn't require medication. Beyond a patient one, we aren't sure what home will suit this little devil best. He may accept the presence of another chill dog, does not want kisses goodnight or to be woken up too early in the morning, and can be bribed with chicken and cheese. If you are still reading and thinking this sounds like a great dog to adopt, please make an appointment with a good therapist(KIDDING), and apply at RBARI.org/dogs so we can broker a meeting with ChristoFURY.If you think you can "fix" him, don't bother - those relationships never work out if you aren't ready to accept each other flaws and all, and he's done with trying to fit into society's convention of what a "pet" should be and looking to live life on his terms - with the rap sheet to prove it.
