Story
Elvira is a 2-year-old, 12-pound Chihuahua mix, who made her way from Mexico and is now living her best life while waiting for her forever home. Elvira is the perfect mix of energetic, playful, and oh-so-cuddly. She loves zooming around just as much as she loves curling up on the couch for a cozy snuggle session with her humans. Since arriving in Williamsburg, she’s adjusted beautifully and continues to grow more confident every day. Elvira enjoys spending time with her foster sister Silvie (a fellow Chihuahua), going on long neighborhood walks, and snuggling up in bed with her foster family at night. She appears to be pee pad trained and is making great progress, though she’ll benefit from continued positive reinforcement to master full outdoor potty training. With a little consistency and encouragement, she’ll be a pro in no time! Elvira walks wonderfully on a leash and truly thrives in the city — she’s calm, patient, and very friendly with other dogs. She’s also done well having free roam of her foster family’s apartment. While she was a bit anxious when first left alone, she quickly settled in and is now relaxed and comfortable at home, especially with her foster sister by her side. Elvira is looking for a family that enjoys being active but loves to relax too. She would love to have another dog at home (a couch potato or an active pup would both make her happy!) and would likely be okay with gentle children - although we haven’t yet seen her interact with kids.  Elvira would make an amazing companion for someone looking for a sweet, lively, and affectionate little shadow to share their days (and couch!) with.  Vaccinated for Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella. Neutered and microchipped. Tested for vector-borne illnesses. Current on flea, tick, and heart worm prevention.  To apply to adopt Elvira, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for a foster application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available. Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable dog, or final size of any of our adoptable puppies. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the dog into our rescue. Questions: adopt@waggytailrescue.org ##2668169##

Story
Meet Mambo, a sweet boy! He is a handsome fellow with a shiny jet-black coat, a distinguished white chest, and ears that stand at perfect attention. He approaches every new friend… human, canine, or feline with a wagging tail and an open heart. His most charming party trick? The moment his food bowl appears...his auto sit. He assumes a perfect "sit"…no command needed. Be sure to complete an application on line and come to our Meet & Greet Saturday 11:30-1:30. If you are interested in this dog, please submit an application directly to our website at www.ny-petrescue.org. Only applications submitted directly to Petrescue will be considered.

Story
Meet Raptor, the puppy who likes to pretend he’s the cool, calm, collected member of the group… until you get him one-on-one. Around the other puppies, Raptor acts like the laid-back observer. But the moment he has you to himself? Surprise! The chill guy disappears and the attention-loving goofball comes out. If you stop petting him, he will absolutely let you know about it. Raptor believes attention should be continuous and uninterrupted. His favorite hobby is shoe sabotage. Raptor specializes in sneaking up while you're standing there minding your business and carefully untying your shoelaces. It’s a very important job and he takes it seriously. Raptor gets along well with his siblings and lives with four adult dogs and four cats. The dogs are cool with him, and he would very much like to be friends with the cats… but the cats have not yet approved his application. If you're looking for a puppy who is equal parts chill, silly, affectionate, and mildly mischievous, Raptor is ready to keep you entertained. Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Knox, the playful little guy who proudly serves as Vice President of Puppy Shenanigans. While his sister Dot may run the gang, Knox is right behind her making sure the fun never stops. He’s a happy, affectionate pup who loves attention and is not afraid to tell you exactly what’s on his mind. Got a thought? Knox has one too. Probably several. Knox’s most impressive talent is his ongoing attempt to escape Mount Puppy Pen, a daring climbing challenge he approaches with the determination of a tiny Alcatraz escape artist. Security improvements are currently under review. He’s playful, social, and enjoys wrestling with his siblings and the other dogs in the house. Knox also lives with cats and would probably love to be friends… if they’d stop giving him the cold shoulder. If you're looking for a puppy who is fun, expressive, affectionate, and slightly convinced he's part mountain goat, Knox might be your guy. Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Wilbur, the puppy equivalent of the middle child who somehow keeps the whole household running smoothly. While his siblings are busy competing for titles like Boss of the Litter, Prison Break Specialist, and Professional Shoelace Saboteur, Wilbur has taken on the role of peacekeeper and all-around good boy. He’s playful without being wild, confident without being bossy, and chill without being boring. Basically, Wilbur has mastered the art of going with the flow no matter what the rest of the puppy crew is up to. Wilbur enjoys playing with his siblings, hanging out with the other dogs in the house, and being part of the action without needing to be the center of attention. He currently lives with four adult dogs and four cats, so he’s already getting lots of practice sharing space with a full house. If you’re looking for a puppy who is friendly, adaptable, and happy to join whatever adventure the day brings, Wilbur might just be your perfect match. Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
