Story
Meet County 🖤 County is the full package. This XL bully girl has it ALL — incredible temperament, striking looks, eagerness to please, and a healthy, sound mind to match her jaw-dropping size. This velvet hippo is 80+ lbs (with weight to gain) and built like a tank — her paws and thick, sturdy legs truly require their own zip code. She came to us from CACC and is more than ready to find her forever family. County has been great with the dogs she’s met, carries herself with a calm, level mindset, and lives for cuddles and connection. She would thrive in a home ready to welcome something big, loving, and loyal into their life. If you’re looking for a gentle giant with a heart as massive as her frame — County is your girl.

Story
Meet Cheetah 🤍 Cheetah is a sweet, soulful survivor who just came through surgery and is healing beautifully. She’s the kind of dog you only meet once — and once she’s adopted, there’s no chance she’ll ever come back, because no one will ever let her go. She is quiet, mellow, and gentle, with a peaceful, steady mind. Cheetah is kennel trained, has done well with both big and small dogs, and moves through the world with calm observation — always softly watching, taking everything in. With her petite frame (around 30 lbs) and her beautiful, expressive face, she’s an absolute gem. Cheetah would thrive in a low-key, loving home where she can simply exist, feel safe, and melt into the couch beside her people. If you’re looking for a quiet companion with a deep, tender soul — Cheetah is waiting.

Story
Meet Goblin 🖤 Goblin is a 9-month-old American Pit Bull Terrier (or mix) with the kind of sweet, soulful eyes that make everyone feel instantly loved. This handsome young guy is neutered, healthy, and fully up to date on vaccines—ready to head home with his forever family. Goblin loves people and soaks up attention wherever he goes. He’s a social butterfly who gets along great with other dogs and would absolutely thrive with a playful canine buddy. He’s also good with cats when introduced properly, and does well with kids, though older ones that he can around with may be best. True to his puppy status, Goblin is still learning—but he’s a quick study and eager to please. Offer him treats or affection and he’ll happily show off how smart he is. He loves a good game of tug, enjoys playtime, and then is more than happy to settle in for cuddles. When it’s time to relax, this boy turns into a total snugglebug. Goblin is well behaved for his age, affectionate, and full of love. A fenced yard would be ideal for him so he can safely burn off energy and enjoy outdoor playtime. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will look at you like you’re his whole world, Goblin might just be your perfect match. His heart is big, his cuddles are top-tier, and he’s ready to give all his love to the right home. The adoption fee for Goblin is $450. This donation helps to cover veterinary expenses including spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinations. Wish Upon a Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit, foster based animal rescue. If you would like to meet Goblin please complete our adoption questionnaire at www.wishuponarescue.org/adopt. We will review your responses and be in contact to schedule a meet and greet at a time and place convenient for your family and our team members.

Meet Harley! This pint-sized 5 year old lady recently came to us from a local animal control. She is very quiet and calm in her crate but LOVES to go on walks and shower her people with kisses! Harley would is not a fan of kitties, and does well with dogs upon a slow introduction. The NAWS Dog Adoption Program operates as a rescue versus a shelter. We believe in matching the right dog with the appropriate family based on each specific dog and family’s needs. To achieve this, we believe in spending the appropriate amount of time with each family to allow for enough interaction time with potential adopters. This cannot be achieved if people stop by unexpectedly to meet our dogs. Please submit an application at www.NawsUS.org under the Pet Adoption tab to set up and day and time to meet with one of our adoption counselors and our potential adoptees. Thank you!

Story
Jersey girl is a short stout with an outgoing personality. She is so funny. Loves kids and every person she meets. Needing a home with no dogs, she still is involved with pack walks and leash skill classes. Maintaining a good citizen, we believe she has had past trama so extended play with dogs gets her stressed and that is why we have required no dog home. Sadly that is why she sits in our facility so long. We really would love to see this amazing girl get the family she deserves.
