Story

Oscar is an 8 year old Shih Tzu. He was picked up as a stray & never claimed. Oscar is like most older Shih Tzus, he likes to be around his human but isn’t a cuddle bug. If he can’t find his foster in his foster home he will walk around grumbling until he finds her. Oscar would do best in a calm home. To adopt, please complete an adoption application. https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/SHRA/Dog

Story

Uncle Clarence is not here for chaos. He is here for peace, snacks, and a very specific kind of human who understands that trust is earned slowly and intentionally. Clarence came to us after living a life that clearly did not offer much stability, consistency, or kindness. While we do not know all the details of his past, it is obvious he did not experience normal handling, structure, or positive human interactions early on. Because of that, he learned to keep his guard up and rely on himself. New things feel scary. New people feel suspicious. And that makes complete sense. He is not leash trained and he is not house trained, but he does use potty pads reliably and does very well with that routine. Outdoor walks are not something he is comfortable with at this time, and his future home will need to respect that and allow him to progress at his own pace, if he ever chooses to. Strangers are not his favorite. He approaches new people with a strong “I don’t know you and I didn’t ask for this” energy. But give him time, calm energy, and patience, and he slowly begins to soften. When Clarence decides he trusts you, it is a big deal. Belly rubs become allowed. Following you from room to room becomes normal. Being chosen by Clarence is an earned privilege. Clarence needs a quiet, understanding home with someone who truly gets that dogs like him are not broken. They are shaped by what they survived. He will thrive with someone who values routine, patience, and small victories and who finds joy in watching trust grow instead of expecting it instantly. He is not a plug and play dog. He is a slow burn, earned love, slightly grumpy, deeply loyal little soul who bonds hard once you are in his circle. His $300 adoption fee covers his neuter, vaccines, parasite prevention, and microchip. Apply on our website at fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com Fair warning. Once you earn his trust, he will follow you everywhere and silently judge your snack choices forever.

Story

Greer is a spirited, affectionate girl who absolutely adores being close to her person. She’s happiest curled up in your lap, but don’t let that fool you — this playful pup has plenty of energy and loves her toys! Greer prefers not to share her favorite things, so she would thrive as the only dog in the home where she can soak up all the love and attention. She’s incredibly loyal and forms a strong bond with her person. Expect sweet kisses, a constant companion following you from room to room, and the cutest little playful nips at your feet to let you know she’s ready for fun. Greer is looking for a home where she can be your one and only — and in return, she’ll give you her whole heart.

Story

NEWBIE ALERT!! &#226&#156&#168 Meet Teddy! This sweet boy was adopted many years back but sadly his mom now has cancer and can no longer care for him. He’s an adorable 11 year old Shitzu. He’s 19 lbs but chunky and could stand to lose some. He is very sweet, calm and has tons of life left in him. He’s great in the house and with other dogs. He would prefer an older calmer household and someone to cuddle. He is utd, hw neg (tested below detectable levels) and neutered. Our adoptions are NOT on a first come first serve basis and there is no fee to apply! We never state any animal is fully House-trained. New environments, situations, families, routines, ect. can lead to accidents even with the most well trained animals. All dogs have a $195 adoption fee which includes vet check, age appropriate shots (atleast 2 sets for puppies), dewormer, heartworm test (if over 6 months), rabies (if atleast 16 weeks) and spay/neuter! Puppies will be altered before adoption. All rescues and shelters practice pediatric spay and neuter. This is essential in our rescue efforts and it is a policy that we will stick by. All dogs over 8 weeks and 2 pounds will be altered before adoption. There are no exceptions to this rule on all healthy and adoptable dogs. We have researched and discussed in depth with multiple vets everything on pediatric spay and neuter and from a rescue stand point it must be done. Please do not ask for an extension on spay and neutering, it will NOT be granted on a healthy puppy! Puppies/Dogs that are not available for adoption due to vetting not being complete can be reserved with an approved application and a non refundable $50 deposit. Deposits can ONLY be submitted once the rescue has been in contact on your approval and it has been requested through Wags and Whiskers. This deposit is applied to your adoption fee and the remaining $145 is due at pick up. Wags and Whiskers is an all-volunteer rescue. Please allow us time to respond to all inquires and applications! Thank you!
