Story
Mighty Mouse was recently adopted from an underfunded shelter while she recovered from spaying. She was found as a stray so keep in mind, we don’t know her background. We decided to adopt after our rescued pup meshed so well in our family. While Mighty fits right in and has been adjusting so well, we realized that the allergies we have been able to manage with our first dog are acting up with Mighty. The vet seemed to think she was a Shih Tzu mix but whatever the mix is unfortunately hasn’t been working for our allergies. She has not had any accidents indoor since we got her (1/31/26) and goes potty quickly outside. She can be sassy when meeting new people/things (may growl/ bark at weird noises or people/ dogs approaching) but I feel it is a defense mechanism. She has allowed strangers to approach and pet her when asking her consent. She does need a little training for manners but is otherwise so sweet and smart, already picking up behaviors from our resident pup.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Chanel and Velani are bonded and will only be adopted together Introducing Chanel    This little Shih Tzu–Pomeranian mix is brand new to our rescue, and we’re already smitten! Chanel is a bit shy at first, but her sweetness shines through in the softest ways — a wag of her tail, a curious glance, and that adorable little face that melts hearts instantly.    She’s met the other dogs and cats in her foster home and didn’t seem to mind them one bit. She’s not quite ready to join in on playtime yet, but she’s quietly taking it all in. (And bonus points: she’s been using her wee&#226&#128&#145wee pads like a pro!  ) We’re still getting to know this precious girl, but she’s already showing us that gentle, happy spirit just waiting to bloom.  Stay tuned as we learn more about our sweet Chanel — she’s going to make someone very, very lucky.    She will be up to date on vaccines. Wag On Inn will arrange for neuter at The Spay and Neuter Center of New Jersey in Holmdel. Adopters must live within driving distance of Holmdel, NJ. His 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.
