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: Selena PawmezBREED: Rat Terrier x Jack Russell TerrierDOB: Jul 25, 2025GENDER: femaleHome Recommendation:Selena is a young, energetic pup who would love a family that can give her plenty of playtime, structure, and snuggles! Shes a confident, happy-go-lucky girl who enjoys spending time with both people and other dogs, so a home where shes not left alone for long stretches would be ideal.Personality:Selena is the perfect mix of playful and cuddly shes ready to be your adventure buddy by day and your snuggle partner by night. She loves everyone she meets and never turns down an opportunity for belly rubs or kisses. Whether shes chasing toys, exploring the yard, or curling up on the couch, Selena does it all with her signature tail wag and big smile.KIDS: YesDOGS: Yes! She loves other dogs and would love to have siblings she can wrestle and play chase with.CATS: UnknownTraining: She is doing well with her leash walking and will be ready to strut her stuff! She is working on her crate training and house training but getting better each day.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Puppy mills overbreed to the point where they produce more dogs than they can sell. Dogs like Selena Pawmezwere 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
My name is Millie! I am about 7 yo 8 years old and 14 lbs; with my big ears, I appear to be a Rat Terrier mix among a few other things. My foster mom and family say I am a really good little girl. I was found trotting along a country road all by myself. My finder drove up in their car and with a little cajoling, I decided it looked safe... safer than what I was dealing with! I am glad I took the plunge and hopped in because I seemed to have hit the foster jackpot. I am dog and people friendly. I am housebroken. I don't require a crate, but I may ask to sleep in your bed! I am good on leash and I love to go on walks. I can be playful but I really enjoy snuggling up next to her humans. I also love to lounge in the sun when it's available. I will let you know when I want to go out for fresh air and when my outdoor time has ended. I am going to make a great little companion! I have not met kids under 10 yet nor those felines.

Story
Casey is a lively 7-year-old Rat Terrier mix with a heart full of love and energy to share. This 25-pound bundle of joy thrives with plenty of playtime and exercise, so he would enjoy a home with a fenced-in backyard or a family that enjoys daily walks and outdoor adventures. Casey was surrendered when his previous owner had a baby. Highly intelligent and affectionate, Casey thrives with adults and older children who understand his gentle, playful spirit. While he enjoys the company of one other dog, he’s also happy to be the star solo act in a dog-free home. Car rides? Casey’s your perfect road trip buddy, always ready to hop in the car and join you on new journeys. Though he can be a bit shy at first, his loving and loyal nature quickly shines through once he warms up. Casey is currently on medication to help with anxiety during fireworks or thunderstorms, but with a calm, patient home, he’s on the path to feeling even more comfortable. He is housebroken, neutered, and ready to settle into a loving family that can provide the patience and routine he thrives with. Casey is a smart, sweet, and playful pup who’s ready to find his forever home. Ready to meet this lovable guy? Reach out today to arrange a visit and see why Casey is ready to steal your heart!
