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: SnowglobeBREED: Maltese DOB: Jan 10, 2020 (5 years 10 months)Home Recommendation: Snowglobe will do best in a calm, patient home that understands she needs extra time to learn how to just be a dog. Everything about affection, attention, and daily life is still new to her, and she needs adopters who can move slowly, create a predictable routine, and let her build confidence at her own pace. A quieter household with gentle people who wont rush her will help her feel safe enough to open up. With steady reassurance and consistent love, shell gradually learn what comfort, companionship, and affection truly feel like and she will blossom when shes finally ready.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Snowglobe 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: Snowglobe is slowly starting to come out of her shell, and were beginning to see some wonderful signs of progress. She recently walked outside on her own, showing a little bit of confidence, and even let her foster pick her up and hold her without any fear. These small victories show how much trust shes building, and its clear shes trying her best to feel safe and connect with the people around her. KIDS: Yes, kids 10+DOGS: YesCATS: YesTraining: Snowglobe is still in the very early stages of settling in, so for now her routine is all about comfort and feeling safe. She spends most of her time relaxing in her bed inside her open crate, which is clearly her preferred safe space. She has been reliably using the wee-wee pads set up in her penned area, and she sleeps in her crate at night, though she feels most secure when someone is nearby. At this point, building trust and consistency is more important than formal training, and she is doing well with the gentle routine that helps her feel supported.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.
