Marla is a beautiful Rat Terrier mix with a soft yellow coat, weighing about 21 pounds and around 5 years old.

She is working on house and crate training and settling in nicely as she gets used to being part of a family again.She is a happy, friendly girl who loves attention and is ready to enjoy the good life she truly deserves.

Meet Nox — your new little shadow with big ears and an even bigger heart! This sleek, petite gentleman is a 2-year-old, 16-pound rat terrier mix with a personality as bright as his shiny coat. Nox is the perfect size for couch snuggles or strolls around the neighborhood. Nox is what we call an “all-in-one companion” — he’s great with cats, kids, and dogs, and he’s just as happy living the high-rise life in an apartment as he is in a single-family home. He’s playful, affectionate, and always up for fun — but when the day winds down, he’s happiest curling up by your side. And those radar ears? They don’t miss a beat. Nox is ready to tune into your frequency and bring endless joy, laughter, and love to your home. Ready to make Nox part of your family?

Story
Meet Morsel, a gentle young adult whose world hasn’t always been kind. She came from a severe hoarding case, and because of that, she’s still learning that people, homes, and love can be safe. Morsel is very shy and skittish, and she needs time to observe, breathe, and decide she trusts you — but when she does, it’s incredibly special. Morsel is searching for a truly patient, understanding adopter, ideally someone with experience with timid or fearful dogs. She won’t be your instant best friend, but she has so much potential waiting just beneath the surface. With consistency, calm reassurance, and zero pressure, she can continue to blossom. Other dogs are her comfort zone. Morsel is wonderful with dogs of all sizes, naturally submissive, and must have another dog in the home to help her feel safe and confident. A canine companion is not just a preference for her — it’s a necessity. Because she’s sensitive, Morsel would do best in a quieter household. Children should be older and respectful, able to understand that love sometimes means giving space and letting trust grow slowly. Morsel has a spay appointment scheduled for 3/24/2026 in the Reading, PA area. If you believe in second chances, quiet victories, and the beauty of earning a dog’s trust day by day, Morsel may be the soul you’ve been waiting for. Sometimes the most rewarding love is the one you have to grow together.   Available 2/7/26 Mostly Muttz Rescue, PO Box 406, Gilbertsville, PA 19525PA Kennel License 10872 ##2641184##

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Lacie is with our rescue partner in Louisiana and will be heading to NJ on 3/21. Meet Lacie — the ultimate mom friend in dog form  This sweet little Rat Terrier was dumped with her four puppies, raised them right, and watched each one find their forever home. Now it’s her turn.   Lacie has been through a lot — heartworm treatment (check ), old leg injury (check ), but she’s tougher than your morning coffee and faster than her limp lets on. She can even clear a 36-inch barrier when her foster mom dares to walk into another room!   She follows her person everywhere (loyalty level: stage 5 clinger ), loves other dogs, and even “plays chase” with cats like the playful aunt she is. She’s leash-trained, rides beautifully in the car, and always looks out for her furry friends. She’s ready for her happy ending — a home where she can love, nurture, and maybe supervise your every move (just a little).   Ready to give this devoted mama the life she deserves?  Lacie is up to date on vaccines and is fixed. Her     adoption fee is $450.    Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. If you are interested in learning more about me, and possibly making me part of your family, please go to  wag-on-inn.com . To apply, click  HERE  or on our website, go to Adoptable Pets and Adoption Application. A Wag On Inn volunteer will be in touch soon!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 6, 2026, 2:46 pm
