Weatherford Wags

Our president started as the Volunteer Rescue Coordinator at the Weatherford Parker County Animal Shelter, Weatherford, Tx. We recently started Weatherford Wags, a 501c3 non profit rescue. We are a foster-home based rescue, focused on saving urgent dogs at local shelters. We also attempt to help strays and unwanted dogs in order to keep them out of shelters and to get them into loving homes. We do not have a facility. To be effective in saving a dog's life, we depend on the community to step up and offer their homes to temporarily foster a dog until it's adopted or goes on transport to be adopted elsewhere. So many dogs that are at risk at the shelters are great dogs, that just need a chance to prove it, and not be euthanized for space at the shelter. We find foster homes for the dogs, provide needed medical attention, help with food, and then market the dogs. We then screen and approve potential adopters, and provide help with integrating a new dog into their home. We do it for the love of dogs, knowing that just because a dog happens to be in the shelter, it is not a bad dog.

Meet Ro

Meet Ro! A sweet dog looking for a loving home. He’s a bit hesitant around men and small children, but with a little patience, he’ll warm up. Ro is fine with older kids and enjoys playing in the yard with his foster’s 5-year-old, though he can get a little skittish when approached quickly. He is warming up to his foster dad, he’ll lay nearby as long as he’s left to approach on his own terms and he is never aggressive. Ro is a calm, sweet dog who doesn’t bite but will bark if he's unsure. He'd do great in a home with smaller dogs or dogs around his size, but he does tend to provoke the bigger dogs. Ro just needs a patient, understanding family who will let him get comfortable on his own time. But with a little patience Ro will be the best and most loyal companion! Ro is about 1 year-old and 36 pounds. Updated February 2025
