Story
Meet Leia! We don't know much about early in her life, but her previous owners moved to housing that did not allow them to take her along. They thought that Leia may have been used for breeding before they got her, but she is fixed now and ready to be part of your family. Leia, although vocal, is very friendly with people and does well with gentle children. Her estimated birthdate is in 2016, but she is still a lively dog. She is being monitored for a heart murmur, but currently does not require medication to treat it. We have not seen her interact with cats, but she may enjoy having a small canine friend. Leia needs a securely fenced yard with no gaps 4" or larger for her safety. Visit our website to fill out an Adoption Application http://www.wagsequimwa.com If you have any questions, please email: office@wagsequimwa.com. Most of our dogs require a fully fenced yard, this does depend on the individual dogs needs and safety requirements. Adoption donation fee up to $350 (Please understand this adoption donation goes towards helping all the dogs we rescue) July 30, 2026, 4:51 pm

At only 7 lbs, Harry is a delicate little boy who deserves a gentle, loving home where he can feel safe, protected, and cherished. He may be small, but his life matters so much, and he deserves the chance to finally know comfort, kindness, and family. At 5 years old, Harry is past the puppy stage and ready for a calm, loving home where he can enjoy soft beds, gentle hands, and the security every dog should have. After everything he has been through, Harry deserves someone special who will see how precious he is and give him the happy future he has been waiting for. ✨ Harry is looking for a loving foster or forever home to help him start again and finally feel safe, loved, and truly part of a family.

Story
Sailor is such a sweet little girl and perfect in every way. Her curiosity is showing more every day. She is putting lots of energy into trying new things and becoming less shy. She does best with other calm dogs and will need her forever family to have a dog so she has a buddy! -----

A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters:
Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:

✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.

✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).

✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.

The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.

Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.

Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
