Story
Meet Cassidy, the Charming Introvert! Get ready to fall in love with Cassidy, a pale white pup with captivating puppy eyes and a heart-shaped nose. Despite a challenging past where he navigated the streets and scrounged for survival, Cassidy's resilience shines through. Now, he's on a mission to find a loving home where he can feel safe and cherished. Cassidy is a dog with a gentle and timid personality. Loud noises and intense reactions make him nervous, and he prefers a calm and serene environment. He needs time to warm up to people and build trust before he feels comfortable and secure. This smart little guy knows some tricks already and is a well-mannered companion during feeding time. He's polite and respectful, showing his intelligence and willingness to please. Sitting on command is just one of the many tricks he has mastered. When it comes to relaxation, Cassidy's favorite spot is snuggled up on the couch or bed. He loves cozy naps and enjoys sleeping in when it's chilly or rainy outside. His head and ears are the sweet spots for scratches and cuddles, and he might even roll over for a belly rub! Cassidy is searching for someone who will shower him with love and understanding. While he respects cats and tolerates other dogs, he prefers his own space and will often retreat to a separate room. However, when the other dogs are not around, he comes out for attention and cuddles. He enjoys the quiet company of a select few men, seeming to have a preference for quieter individuals. It's important to note that Cassidy is not a fan of chaos, whether it's caused by humans or other dogs. He seeks a serene and calm environment where he can feel at ease. Car rides are a pleasure for him, as long as he is the sole rider and not in a crowded car with other dogs. To provide Cassidy with his ideal home, a single, quiet man with no other dogs or possibly a submissive dog that Cassidy meets and approves of would be the perfect match. An at-home social life that aligns with his introverted nature is preferable. While Cassidy tends to avoid general interaction and may not seek pets, hugs, or kisses, he has his moments of affection when he feels comfortable. Cassidy may be an introverted hermit, but beneath his reserved exterior lies a dog yearning for love and understanding. If you're someone who appreciates the quiet moments and can provide a calm and peaceful environment, Cassidy will reward you! (Only) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Lila a very sweet 30 lb., Whippet/Terrier mix with an approximate DOB of 2/28/2021. She is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative and up to date on core vaccines (Rabies/Distemper).  Lila was found as a stray in Minneapolis and seems to be a bit skittish and untrusting. The adopter will need to be patient as Lila gains trust and gets to know her routine. Lila can be laid back but also has energy that needs to be burnt off through walking exercise, stimulation with toys and play time. As she has been in her foster home her playful side is starting to come out. She enjoys playing with balls but does not understand how to drop and play fetch. She enjoys batting the ball with her paw and chasing it as it rolls down the hill outside. She also likes squeaky toys and plush toys so any small humans might have to share their stuffed animals if they are not stored out of Lila’s reach. With that said Lila is not comfortable around little kids so it is best to be adopted in a house with children over 12. Lila would also benefit from obedience and dog socialization classes in a safe environment as she needs to learn some rules and boundaries and how to be a better dog. Lila does well with other dogs with slow introductions and can be a bit in their face as she just wants to play with them, but also has a jealous side. Her current foster has three (3) dogs, and she gets along with them and wants to be part of the pack. Lila might be best in a home where the human works from home as she wants to be around as she gains trust and confidence. She can be very vocal when left alone or put in kennel so it is suggested that there should be no shared walls for her as well. Lila is house trained and does well when left unkenneled if she cannot reach the countertop, especially food. She has slept in a bed a night and loves being close to the fosters and then will not whine or bark. Lila would benefit from a fenced yard as she tends to want to run and escape her surroundings due to fear and uncertainty in situations and will run away if you try to catch her.    Although you would not know it as she seems fine, Lila has been diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia in both hips, so it is very important to keep her lean. Let Lila her set her exercise limits but also do not let her overdo it.  Swimming would be an excellent activity for her to do and shorter walks. She does not seem to have any pain and x-rays showed there was no arthritis at this time but the vet says that no intervention needed currently but she may need a salvage procedure in the future. Outside walks have gone well with other dogs, but she does have a prey drive and pulls on the leash. Her fosters are working with her on how to walk on a leash, but they do enjoy watching her smell and pounce as she is still a young dog. She could be the only dog or live with another non-dominant, easy going dog her size or bigger. Small dogs, cats, or other animals such as chinchillas, hamsters etc. are not recommended in the house with Lila. Lila would make a wonderful addition to the right warm and loving home. If you would like to learn more about Lila and set up a meet and greet, please fill out an application.    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in adopting this lovable animal? Please go to our website www.wagsmn.org and fill out an Adoption Application.  Once the application is processed, a Wags representative will contact you, answer any questions you may have, and set up a time/location for a meet and greet!  A home visit is required prior to adoption.  Thank you for choosing to adopt! Breed and temperament determination:  Wags & Whiskers Animal Rescue attempts to determine breed and temperament using a combination of looks, information provided to us at intake, and our experience with the animal while in our Rescue.  We do not guarantee this determination.

Story
SE Thor's Hammer, R71B, L75002Hi. I’m Thor. I’m not quite the god of thunder that I’m named after, in fact I’m a sweet and submissive boy. I love walks and think they're awesome! I might secretly love people too, but I'm a little shy at first but curious. I like to come to people when I'm ready and enjoy getting pets. I love having my own space in the house, and as long as I have a refuge and squeaky stuffy toys, I tolerate a lot of activity going on in the house. I get along with dogs the best, calm children are my next favorite, then adults. Anyone noisy or fast, I'll most likely choose to go up to last. I would rather not be kenneled and be an only dog. I really look to other dogs for reassurance and do fine as long as I have a dog buddy to hang with. I also really don't like stairs and so far, no amount of bribery and FOMO has tempted me enough to give them a go. My foster mom will continue to encourage me to give them a try. My new foster mom also says that I have opened up so much in just the two weeks that she's been with me and that it will be amazing to see how much braver I will get once I'm with my forever family. Could you be that forever family?  To see other hounds currently in our care please visit the Hounds in Our Care page on our website.

RG Urs R 62D, L 75271Hi! I'm Popper! I love snuggles and all people. I also love short walks (I get a little tired on long ones). I have a tendency to be a leaner and I am an early riser. I like all people and I get along with big dogs and cats. For the most part I am not interested in cats. In fact, I have a pretty low prey drive and I hardly pay attention to squirrels. I would rather not be kenneled, I tend to vocalize if I'm in the kennel longer than an hour or two. My foster people say I do well lose in the bedroom with the resident dogs. I'm also not a fan of loud noises, the vacuum, and baths. I prefer to be around my people and I love to snuggle with them. Speaking of my people, my fosters say I'm such a sweet boy. Hope to meet my forever people soon!

FF Tesla R 61I, L 74981Hi, I'm Telsa!I love MY PEOPLE, the dogs I'm living with, my people, counter surfing, bringing all the toys out of the bin, sleeping, going outside, resting my head on you or other dogs, cuddling, CHEESE (and other snacks) and did I mention my people? I have a gentle disposition, a lot of love to give, a tendency to be a velcro hound, a tendency to sneak out of doors, a tendency to be a counter surfer, a tendency to be vocal when the humans leave so no shared walls for me. I am very friendly, a toy collector, a really good eater, a HUGE cuddler, not afraid of loud noises (such as thunderstorms, vacuums, and fireworks). I get along with people, med/large dogs. I'm not entirely sure about small dogs though. Maybe with time and exposure I could get along with them. The kids I have interacted with have been okay. I just stand there and enjoy all the pets. I would rather not be an only dog/left alone, and I rather not be kenneled because I will be vocal the whole time. I do really well left out though. I need a home without cats, some basic obedience training, a house without shared walls, another dog friend to keep me company (does not need to be a grey), lots of cuddles/attention. I don’t always like to go potty on leash but it's something I'm working on and I've never had an accident in the house. And now that I've learned to go up stairs, I'm also working on learning how to safely go down them. Looking forward to finding my forever family!
