Story
Meet Bumpy Bumpy is a little over six months old and already has a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s a mix of Pug, Mastiff, and hound so you get the perfect blend of intelligence, loyalty, and playful energy. He’s incredibly smart, learns quickly, and is full of life. Bumpy loves to move, explore, and be engaged, and he thrives with structure, activity, and attention. This decision is not an easy one. Due to financial constraints while starting a new business and welcoming a new baby into our family, we’re no longer able to give Bumpy the time, training, and consistency he truly deserves. As much as he is loved, it wouldn’t be fair to him to keep him in a situation where his needs can’t be fully met. Bumpy will be missed deeply, but our priority is finding him a safe, loving, and active home where he can continue to grow, learn, and be someone’s best friend. He would do best with an owner or family who has the time, energy, and space to keep up with a smart, high-energy

Story
Meet Queso! Questo is a playful 3-month-old puppy weighing 8 pounds. Like all pups his age, he’s curious, friendly, and full of joy! He was rescued with his mom and siblings from an over crowded house. His mom is Brie and she weighs about 10 lbs. She tested negative for Chagas. He's safe now and ready for a forever home! .

Queso loves to explore, play with toys, and snuggle in your arms. In true terrier fashion, he’s clever and eager to learn. He’d thrive in a home where he gets plenty of playtime, attention, and love. This puppy is under 16 weeks of age as of 1/6/2025. He is too young for Heartworm or Chagas testing. Because this puppy is from the state of Texas…an area endemic for Chagas disease…we strongly recommend that they be tested once they reach at least 16 weeks of age. Please familiarize yourself with Chagas disease and the importance of early detection. If you’d like to make this sweet dog part of your family, please review our adoption process and complete an application here: https://www.tracyspawsrescue.org/adopt

Story
Meet our super sweet and gentle 5-year-old pug girl. She’s shy and still learning the world, but gaining confidence and trust in humans every day. She’s a bit weary of the busy NYC streets and not yet fully leash-trained, so for now she feels safest inside. House training is a work in progress—she has occasional accidents and hasn’t mastered potty pads—but she’s tidy and never destructive! She is friendly with other dogs, and would likely do well in a home with another dog who can teach her the go around. She relaxes best in her crate (dim lights + soft music = bliss), and once she feels safe there, she’ll happily accept gentle pets. She eats and drinks well, sleeps through the night, and her curiosity about toys shows a playful spark. She needs a calm, patient home that celebrates small wins. If you love helping dogs blossom, she’ll be your little soulmate and she loves some cheese! 3 Keywords for your pup: Sweet, shy, curious!Energy Level (1= calm, 10= high energy): 6Barker? Or Quiet Pup?: Occasional barkerWalking Manners: She needs patience learning how to walk on a leash. Appetite: Great!Favorite Things: Sleeping in a comfy crate  ALL adoptions require a completed application and final contract. The application can be found at  WaldosRescue.org  and once you are approved to adopt you will be put in touch with the foster to see if it’s a good match. We are a RESCUE not a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks during the application approval process. We are unable to contact every applicant for every dog.  We will select the best applicant for each dog, based on the dogs needs. Waldos Rescue Pen is a 501c3 whose primary focus is rescuing dogs from the euthanasia list from high kill shelters throughout the United States and Korea. ##2487032##

Story
Zhu Zhu’s life changed suddenly through no fault of her own. She was surrendered to the shelter when her family faced housing instability, and the loud, frightening environment was overwhelming for her gentle spirit. The stress took a toll and she became sick with CIRDC. Thankfully, Zhu Zhu was given a second chance and is now recovering in a loving foster home, where her true personality has begun to shine. Zhu Zhu has revealed herself to be a sweet, mellow cuddlebug who adores affection from everyone she meets. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and spends her days doing what she does best: suckling on blankets, making biscuits, and burrowing under the sheets. Zhu Zhu is ready for a calm, loving home where she can feel safe, cherished, and never worry about losing her place again. If you’re looking for a gentle companion who will fill your home with quiet love and cozy moments, Zhu Zhu may be the perfect match. Zhu Zhu is fostered in Brooklyn, NY, and is available for local or out-of-state adoption as long as the adopter can travel to meet her.To get the adoption process started, please send us an application at https://bit.ly/rosr-adopt-foster.
