Meet Heather

weight 35 lbs age: 7 months as of 11/15 adoption donation: $599      Heather is a  sweet and gentle girl who was found with her sister Hayden, emaciated and living in a culvert in a rural and remote part of northern Mississippi in an area known for dumping ground for dogs. Despite her difficult beginning Heather is a great dog, she loves other dogs and is fine its cats, at the rescue in  Mississippi she  loved to splash in the plastic swimming pool!     Heather is shy in the beginning and we think that she would do best in a home with another dog, she really just perks up around other dogs and just loves to play. She has had her vaccinations and has been spayed. Heather doesn’t have a drop of aggression and  is housebroken, as soon as she gets outside, she gets right down to business!.   Heather  will make a wonderful family member. Wags is a licensed 501 C3 where one woman takes care of almost 150 homeless and stray dogs many of them have expensive medical needs.. Adoption fees include transport, vaccinations, microchip, and spay or neuter. for more information on Heather or any of our rescue dogs please email [email protected]     

Adoption Process
we have an adoption application and require a deposit while we check references, we do home visits or ask for videos, and FaceTime if we’re not able to get to the home.
