History and A Note from the Foster: Hiya! My name is Waddles!! If you’re curious about why I’m called Waddles, take a look at my back legs and you’ll find two extra toes on each leg! These made me waddle when I was a pup, but you can bet they don’t slow me down one bit! I have yet to learn the art of chill, but that’s only because there’s so much fun stuff to see and do! I am house trained and know some basic commands, such as come, sit, lay down, and even shake. I know these even better if you have treats for me!
I have been told that I have the most beautiful blue-green eyes that draw everyone right in with adorably big, soft ears! In addition to my big ears, I have a super long tail that makes my whole body wiggle when I get excited!
I was in rescue when I was really little and was adopted, but unfortunately I got too big and it wasn’t the right fit. Now I am looking for my forever home! As mentioned, I am a big girl, weighing about 75 lbs and still young enough I might grow a little more. But that just means more of me to love!
I am a sweet girl who loves all the attention I can get and I love love love to give kisses! I tend to get a little protective of my toys when I’m playing with them and when I get tired I can get sassy, playing a little too much with my mouth. I am easily redirected though, and with some structure and affection thoughI’m already getting better at these things.
With proper introductions, I do well with other dogs, but I would really excel in a house where I can get all the attention to myself and give people all my puppy love! I love my two foster brothers, but I would love even more to have a house all to myself! I haven’t been around a lot of little kids, but because of my size and mouthiness, I would just need some boundaries set if there’s little kids around.
I am so so so excited to meet my forever family! If I sound like the right pup for you please reach out so we can meet!
See ya soon!

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
