Wags and Whiskers Animal Rescue of MN

Wags & Whiskers Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to saving lives and finding forever homes for stray, abandoned and surrendered dogs in high kill shelters. We are a small, volunteer run organization. All of our animals listed are in foster homes waiting to be adopted and because of this, we get to know the animals' personalities very well and use this information to match them to an appropriate home. We do not have a physical shelter. This rescue is not funded by public funds nor does it receive many donations so it is dependent on adoption fees to keep operating. We provide all needed supplies and cover medical costs of the foster while it awaits a forever home.

Meet Jen D5910

I'm Jen, but my foster family calls me LeeLee! If you're looking for a fun, loveable pup for your family, I would be a great fit. About me: I have puppy energy which means I'm excited about everything and glad to be your buddy on any adventures. The shelter said I was about 3 years old, but by the way I act, I'm probably closer to 1. I love snuggles, playtime, and walks, but am also a pro at snoozing when it's time to relax. My love and happy attitude bring joy to the whole family. Sometimes my energy can be a bit overwhelming for the 4 year old in my family, but that's when my foster mom calls to me and I walk away.    I'm super playful with other dogs and want to be everyone's best friend. I'm not living with a cat right now but my foster mom thinks I might be too playful to be in a home with them.   Not to brag, but I am AWESOME at being in my crate both at night and during the day, and I already know how to go potty outside! I am eager to please (especially when there are treats involved) so you shouldn't have much trouble teaching me things. I already know some basic commands and am getting better at them every day. My leash manners could use some work but nothing that some patience (and treats) can't help with!  

Adoption Process
Our adoption process includes an adoption application. After reviewing your application and contacting the vet and personal references, a meeting is scheduled between the potential adopter and the pet, in the foster's home or a neutral animal friendly place. If there are any resident animals within the home, it is required that they meet at this time. After the meeting, a home visit by one our representatives is REQUIRED prior to finalizing any adoption and we must meet all members of the household where the pet will be living sometime during the adoption process. 6 month post-adoption check in is completed.

Look for other dogs for adoption!
