We would like to reintroduce you to Bessy a 6 year old beagle who has been searching for her forever home for quite some time and she just doesn’t understand why?! She loves to play and wiggle her butt for scratches in the morning. She thinks she is the star of her own version of “Risky Business” as she likes to “rev” up and use her foster mom’s runners in the kitchen in place of a wood floor and a pair of white socks. I really like to just sit in the yard and sun bath with the wind flopping my ears. I am potty trained and love to go for short walks with my foster friends. I am so happy meeting new people that I love to greet people with my smile and wagging tail at any of the adoption events I attend. Please be my forever family so I can share all the love that I have to give.

This week we would like everyone to meet Sylvia!
When you look into Sylvia’s eyes you become mesmerized with her beauty? She is an outstanding girl with a personality that shines like the sun. Sylvia is a beautiful 2 year old pitbull mix who was rescued from a high kill shelter. Her foster family calls her turtle because she always seems to fall asleep under her beds instead of on top of them. This girl Loves to run and play with her toys. Especially fond of tug o’ war and any rope or Kong toy she can really chew on. She also really Loves Nylabone chew bones. Sly is really enjoys being outside in her foster family’s back yard as much as possible. She also really is fascinated with the snow. Sylvia is quite the kisser too! She loves to be picked up and held. Loves to snuggle on her foster mommy lap to keep her warm on these cold days we have been having. Sylvia is a very smart girl and could use some brushing up on her basic obedience. She loves to go on walks, and walks very well on her leash. She also really enjoys going for rides in the car. Sylvia is also crate-trained and has never messed in her crate. She likes a giant crate with a bed or pillow and blankets to snuggle into. Needless to say she is a very posh puppy! She is House-trained with the occasional accident. She also lets you know when she needs to go out to potty whining a bit more urgently if she wants to go outside. She is current on her vaccines for her age and is ready to make her forever family love her unconditionally! Please visit our website www.wagginghearts.org to complete an application.
HAPPY WEDNESDAY!
Have you ever thought about helping an animal in need, donating your time to help or even donating a bag of animal food?
Become a foster parent to a rescue animal for a few weeks, it is the most important aspect to an animals life because you are teaching them how to trust again or even for the first time. We save from high-kill shelters where they have only a few hours left, homes where their owner can no longer care for them so they contact us for help in finding their pets great homes. We need volunteers to help us save as many lives as we can as we are a foster-based rescue. The most fulfilling moment of being a foster is knowing that you are helping another family … complete their family and fill their hearts and homes with forever love. If you would like more information on becoming a foster parent, please contact us at fostering@wagginghearts.org or Kirsten@wagginghearts.org.
Stop by to meet one of our outstanding adoptables this Sunday, August 18th from 12-3 PM at the Petco in Round Lake Beach, IL. We will be bringing a number of our adoptable animals like beautiful and gentle Sklyer. A beagle/bassett mix with an incredible personality. She is just about the most perfect dog one can ask for and she will be making an appearance on Sunday!! Or how about a couple of wee pups like King and Julia? Beagle/lab mixes with puppy kisses aplenty to give. Fall in love with sweet Mocha, a german shepherd mix with so much to give in terms of cuddles, dedication and heart. How about happy Harold? Low to the ground so he can catch wind that some forever love is coming his way!! Allie is just a pocket-size, love muffin, American Staffordshire. Her heart can be seen in her beautiful eyes and a real home would soothe her wayward soul. Watch a video of this sweet girl in motion. Perhaps you are looking for a young adventurous soul with the softest coat and the deepest eyes? Whiskey is your partner for fun and excitement. A lover of children and always ready to play with his stuffed toys. Whiskey has many gifts to share with a family, take a look at his video. Or come out to meet us and talk with us about some of our other dogs and cats available for adoption. We are foster-based and would love to connect some of our other adoptables with a family just like YOU! If your life is missing laughter, joy and happiness…then you might just be looking for a Wagging Hearts adoptable! We will be bringing some of our beautiful boarding pets looking for foster or adoption love (Mocha, Whiskey, Allie and Harold among a few). Please consider opening your home temporarily and provide a life in need with a soft, quiet, natural environment instead of a kennel in boarding.
Some of our boarding pets in need of foster or adoption: Allie, Big Boy, Carmel, Harold, Lucy, Mocha, Otis, Peepers and Whiskey
Fill out an adoption application in advance!! Start the process early so all that is needed is to sweep your new love up in your arms and start your new life together.
We hope to see you there so you can experience all the unique personalities, shapes and sizes that are looking for a forever home exploding with some beautiful furever love. They have so much to share and are waiting patiently for you to find them. Their dedicated love is a true gift for the heart and soul.
