If you’re looking for a happy, affectionate, fun-loving dog who thinks everyone he meets is his new best friend, Tug might be your guy! Tug is a young, energetic pup with a big heart and a love for life. He is good with other dogs and kids and truly never meets a stranger. He loves everyone he meets and is thrilled to get pets from anyone willing to give them. More than anything, Tug wants to be wherever the action is, preferably right by your side. Tug is housebroken and crate trained, and he walks well on a leash with his harness. He also loves car rides, especially if he can sit on someone’s lap for the trip. Like any rescue dog, he is still working on a few things. When Tug gets really excited, he wants to jump up to say hello, so he is working on remembering not to jump up for attention. The good news is that Tug is very treat motivated and eager to learn. He picked up “sit” after just one day of training, so continuing his training should be both fun and rewarding! Tug has plenty of young-dog energy and loves going for walks, playing with toys, chewing on bones, and getting the zoomies around the house. He enjoys smelling and exploring everything he comes across and really just loves being involved in whatever his people are doing. Despite his enthusiasm for life, Tug isn’t a big barker unless he sees his reflection in the mirror, of course! He is a goofy, affectionate boy who pretty much likes everything and everyone. Tug would do well with kids or another dog, although he certainly doesn’t need another dog in the home to be happy. He is looking for a family who wants a happy, easygoing companion and is committed to continuing his training while keeping him active and engaged. In return, Tug will give you endless affection, plenty of laughs, and a loyal companion who would love nothing more than to be by your side. If this guy sounds like what could be the new member to your family, Tug would love to meet you!We are a Wisconsin state licensed dog rescue -WI# 402433 ***We do not have a central adoption center at this time. All our dogs are in private foster homes within WI. At this time, we only place our dogs in areas of WI. The breed of our dogs is our best guess with the help of our veterinarians. Our Weight Classes are as follows: 0- 25lbs - Small 26- 45lbs - Medium 46-89 - Large 90+ X-large If you are adopting an adult dog, which we consider 6 months of age or older, your adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper shots, dewormed, flea & tick preventative, heartworm tested and microchipped. If you are adopting a dog younger than 6 months of age, the dog will be up to date on the shots as per the dogs age. The dog will be dewormed, flea/tick preventative and microchipped. We only spay/neuter our dogs once they're at least 6 months old. If you decide to adopt a younger dog than 6 months, they will need to be spayed/neutered by your veterinarian when they are between 6 to 8 months old. Proof that the spay/neuter has been completed will need to be submitted to Tailwaggers911. Once proof of the spay/neuter has been received, we will refund $100 of your adoption fee via Venmo, PayPal or have a check in the mail within 15 days. Once you are approved with our rescue, you can meet any one of our dogs within the fosters home. If you are interested in the dog you met, you can take the dog home under our mandatory foster to adopt program. You receive 5 days to see if the dog is the right fit for your home. If it is, we will conduct the home visit and finalize adoption. If it is not, it is returned to the foster. We are happy to find you another dog that meets your needs in your home. If a dog is listed as ADOPTION IN PROCESS, a family has met the dog and planning on adopting the dog after the home visit has been conducted. We always suggest sending in an application for a dog because there are times where the dogs are given back to us under the foster to adopt program. There are many reasons dogs are returned but normally it just was not the right fit for all.Please go to WWW.TAILWAGGERS911.COM under HOW TO ADOPT . We have an online application that is very easy to fill out. September 20, 2026, 7:43 pm
