Rescue FAQs

Waggs and Wishes was founded by Angie Potter and Beth Hare on the belief that it is our duty as humans to care for dogs in a kind and respectful manner. We strive to help find loving homes for any dog brought to or rescued by Waggs and Wishes no matter their history. We spay/neuter every adult rescue dog in order to help end the cycle of unwanted litters. We treat each and every dog as if it we our own in order to give it back the respect, love and dignity it deserves. We maintain the highest standards of care for every dog we come in contact with, including the highest quality veterinary care, housing, love, tenderness and compassion.
We serve the Metro Detroit Location primarily but do adopt out to wonderful adoptive homes outside our primary area if local rescues will work with us to complete a home check.

Additional adoption info

Families interested in adopting one of our loving animals must first download an adoption application from our website www.waggsandwishes.org (located on the bottom of our home page)

After a vet and personal reference check has been completed and your family is selected as the best possible home for the animal, you will be contacted to set up a meet and greet session with the animal you are interested in adopting.
