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 Betsy D6034

Meet Betsy, a 5 1/2-year-old Lhasa mix with a heart as big as her story. Found wandering the city streets for a week, no one came forward to claim her despite efforts to find her owner. Now, Betsy is thriving in her foster home and showing just how much love she has to give. Betsy has blossomed into a fun-loving companion who adores other dogs, though she’s not a fan of cats. She’s catching on to potty training, loves lounging on her comfy doggie bed, and is fully kennel-trained at night. During the day, however, she prefers to keep her favorite humans in sight, so a home without shared walls would be best for her.  We think she would do better with older children as her previous foster home had a toddler that Betsy liked to do the humpty hump on which is probably more of an anxious behavior.    But let's just play it safe.  The current foster home has teenagers and she loves them! This sweet girl is scheduled for a dental cleaning and spay procedure in early February, ensuring she’s ready to start her next chapter. Betsy is ready to melt your heart—could you be her forever family?

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.
