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 Carmelita D6058

Carmelita is a tiny 10 lb bundle of love and kisses. She’s a professional cuddler, always searching for the warmest lap or coziest blanket to burrow into. When she’s not snuggled up, she enjoys following her favorite humans around, giving sweet little kisses and yips of excitement, and basking in the sun in true Chihuahua fashion.  She currently lives with two other small dogs and several cats.  She loves sleeping with her foster human and other dogs at night. Carmelita is completely house-trained and just an all-around sweet as can be little chi chi. If she is approached too quickly or if she doesn’t want to be bothered at the moment, she will warn you to back off.  Her year of birth is estimated to be 2009, but that information is suspect.  She jumps up on to beds, couches, and can run up the basement stairs like a champ. Her eyes are clear as a bell and she seems to have great vision.  Carmelita would love to find her forever home that is on the calm side with humans who will appreciate her sweet personality and will give her the space and time she needs to fully integrate into her new life. Due to her estimated birth year of 2009 and the stress of anesthesia and surgery on animals of this age, Carmelita will not be spayed. 

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.
