<br />One of our rescue dogs, a shepherd/hound mix named Jack, met lots of new friends on this bright and sunny Sunday morning. We drove to the Monroe airport to meet Tom and Stephanie Campbell and their daughter Keira, along with Tom and Kim Heagy, who offered their plane/pilot services and organizing skills to start…
Homeward Bound, at last!
<br />Jack will finally be on his way home this weekend! He was adopted in October, but it took awhile to get everything set for this trip to his new home near Chicago. Congratulations to his new owner, Frank.<br /><br />Also thanks are due to to some awesome WAG volunteers and the non-profit organization Pilots…

Emergency for Brenda
Emergencies happen when you least expect them! Our sweet Brenda, one of Honey’s puppies, was rushed to the emergency vet clinic with stomach pains. X-rays showed a foreign body in her intestines and the vet recommended immediate surgery. She’s having surgery as we write this. In the morning we’ll take her to our regular vet…
Need Room to Grow
Here are a couple of our cute pups – Princess and Snowball. They’re ready for new homes, along with their brother and another sister.

New name, new life.
Remember Buddy, the dog we rescued who was diagnosed with parvo and pneumonia? Well, he’s feeling much better now. He also has a new name – Jake. Here he is play-chasing a few of our other rescue dogs. He’s a very sweet boy and loves to play – he’ll run and grab a toy when…

Puppies galore!
Look at these cutie pies – just a few of the 15 puppies currently in WAG foster care and destined for a no-kill shelter in NY in January. More on our new partnerships later – but hopefully this will allow us to rescue hundreds of more animals each year. Paws crossed for future possibilities!!<br /><br…

More room at the inn
<div><br /></div><div>Take a look at our new kennels! We had concrete poured in a 12 x 36 barn area, giving us a clean (flealess!) place to house more dogs. So far we have three extra kennels and will get a fourth when enough money comes in. We need a escape-proof kennel – you’d be surprised…
New beginnings
Here’s our boy Milton, aka Jake. He’s been neutered and was recently treated for heartworms. Hopefully it won’t be long before this good-looking boy finds an awesome home! Thanks to everyone who sponsored him – your donations helped Jake get his HW treatment and another chance at happiness!!<br /><br /><div class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”><a…
Lovely Lola
Take a look at this Before/After shot! Lola is an amazing little girl who was carrying around pounds of nasty, matted hair when we rescued her from the shelter. But the folks at Monroe Vet shaved away all that awful stuff, letting her natural beauty shine through. ADORABLE! Lola will be spayed and available for…

We’re so lucky to have new friends, Pixel’s Posse, dba the Pixel Fund, from Maine. They do an awesome job helping to rescue southern dogs and find great homes for them in Maine. In fact, four of our lucky dogs left for Maine on Thursday – here’s Mr. Ed the Chihuahua with his new family!…

Milton! He’s a WAG milestone dog – officially the 100th animal rescued by WAG in 2012!!!<br /><br />Milton is a sweet hound mix. Unfortunately he’s heartworm positive, but generous donations will help us get him treated. We’ll post some more photos of Milton once he settles in.<br /><br /><div class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”><a href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XY_niUGvqA8/UG-SfgZF6kI/AAAAAAAAAws/MpTH0xOQIHY/s1600/20122919milton1web.jpg”…

A New Life
Here’s Gracie, fka Anna. She was in the shelter and scheduled for euthanasia. But lucky her her, someone saw her photo and fell in love. So we pulled Gracie from the shelter, had her spayed at Monroe Vet Clinic, and introduced her to her new “mom” Regina. Two very happy ladies!<br /><br />A special thank-you…
