Wet Nose Rescue is one of many foster based rescues in the area and with the nationwide shelter crisis, we are working even harder to continue our mission to help as many abandoned dogs and puppies find their forever homes as possible.
As a foster based rescue, our ability to take in a new dog or puppy depends so much on our communities. Our space is limited to the amount of homes we have available to show our dogs/puppies the love they so deserve, either through adoption or fostering, as well as funds coming in through donations and fundraisers.
But what if I’m not ready to adopt or foster, how can I help?
Spread the word to family and friends to make sure that animals are spayed and neutered as soon as their vet deems it appropriate.
Share posts about adoptable dogs or fosters needed anytime you see one. You never know when it might help someone find their forever friend or help get a dog/pup out of a crowded shelter. Every little bit counts!
Donate money, food or supplies to help the next pup the rescue is able to bring into the fold.
Volunteer your time to help with fundraisers. Maybe you’ve got a great idea that your local rescue hadn’t thought about before!
It will take a village to end this shelter crisis and we will continue to educate, rescue and find forever homes until it does.

Today we lost a long time supporter of the rescue and one half of the family who started us on our grey nose society journey. Tony and Sandy adopted our very first senior, Daniella, so many years ago. Our hearts are with Sandy in this tough time and we are thankful she has Lady to comfort her in this difficult time.

Rest easy Tony! Thanks for all you did for the rescue. 💔

This sweet girl and her 6 other siblings are looking for foster families so they can make their way up the east coast from South Carolina! They are about 10 weeks old now.
With shelters across the country filled to capacity, fostering is more important now than ever before! Fostered puppies tend to find homes faster than most shelter dogs as they learn what it means to live in a home with a family. These puppies start off early learning what is expected of them allowing for a more well rounded family dog. If you have a loving home with a little room to spare, we would love to hear from you. If you would like to foster this sweet girl or any other pup with us, please consider filling in a foster application with us!

EDIT: Taylor has been placed in a foster to adopt home with a previous Wet Nose adopter. She was very excited!

Taylor and her adorable little mustache are in need of an adopter or a new foster home! She’s causing too much stress on the senior four leggeds in her current foster home with her puppy antics. Her current foster describes her as a sweet little girl with puppy energy for days.
If you are already an approved foster, please reach out. If not, please consider putting in an foster application to help out this sweet girl. Link in our bio!

Thank you to everyone who reached out to help Annie - she’s found herself a foster to adopt family 🥰🥰🥰! We are still looking for additional fosters. These 3 - 10-12 week old - puppies are looking to leave the shelter too! Our fosters allow these little beauties to leave the noisy shelter environment and begin to learn what living in a loving home entails! If you are interested in fostering, please consider filling in an application at https://wetnoserescue.org/how-to-help/foster-family-contact.html

UPDATE: Annie has found herself an foster to adopt family! She will be coming up on transport 9/3! Thanks to all who reached out to help!

FOSTER NEEDED - Commitment needed by Tuesday 8/29 to get her on the transport list. Transport comes into Wet Nose Rescue on 9/3.
Annie is a 5 or 6 year old c**nhound mix who came to our rescue partners emaciated, heartworm positive and clearly having had multiple litters of puppies. After about 3 weeks, someone did reach out and tried to get her back, but they refused to complete an adoption application and made it clear that they intended to return her to life living 24/7 in a dog pen, and continue to breed her again and again. Our rescue partner rightfully refused to allow this sweet girl to be returned to these conditions and instead was able to find her a wonderful adoptive family in Northern VA.
Despite being cat tested at the shelter (where she completely ignored the cat), Annie decided about a week into her new home that the cats were no good. Her loving family worked tirelessly for several months to get Annie to calm down around the cats, but ultimately had to make the difficult decision to return her.
Annie thought she quickly found another adopter, but they are unable to keep her since she cannot be crated. Annie is well behaved and house-trained. She can absolutely be trusted to roam if needed.
Unfortunately our rescue partner is overflowing as many shelters are across the country and if Annie doesn’t find rescue placement they will have to make the really difficult decision to euthanize her. If you are available to foster, please reach out ASAP. Annie has been treated for heartworm, spayed and had a post-spay hernia fixed already. She’s gotten along with all dogs she’s been introduced to, but DOES NOT like cats. She’s 45-50 pounds.

Meet Petal - Petal is looking for her forever home and the sweetest girl with just the right amount of sass. At 10 weeks old, she’s got lots to learn, but so much love to give too.
Ever worry if you’ll be able to tell if your dog likes something? Not with Petal! Her adorable pounces will let you know immediate just how much she enjoys something ❤️
Adopt Petal today! You can find our application in the link in our bio.

Getting non-blurry pictures at puppy yoga is an incredible feat, but these pups need to make sure every yogi feels supported on their journey, so it’s non-stop movement!
We had such a blast .vp this past weekend that we decided to plan another very soon. We’ve got a transport coming up, which means more pups to cater to more yogis so stay tuned!

** ADOPTED** Since it is the start of America’s Got Talent, Gracie would like to audition too. Who would not want to give this talented loving dog a home?!

Roger's Christmas wish is to find his very own family

** ADOPTED ** Roger is 55 lbs of SMILES, CUDDLES & HUGS. He is shy when he meets new people and will need a little bit of time to adjust but once he does, he is such a happy loving boy. He is about 2 years old and is neutered and up to date on his shots. He is super cuddly and loves to snuggle up next to you. He likes other dogs & cats too. Having another dog would be a big plus for him to help boost his confidence. He is also house/crate trained. He is absolutely adorable and will fill your home with laughter. He loves water so a pool would be a big plus for him. If not, he would be happy to splash around in a lake, a puddle or even his water bowl! He loves to play but he is not a hyper dog at all. Roger is currently in a foster home and he is very appreciative to have a warm, safe place to stay but he would love to find his forever home even more. You just have to come and meet this wonderful dog. Please apply at www.wetnoserescue.org

Wonton is a young female dog(maybe a year old) who is spayed and up to date on her shots. She is super sweet, very loving, full of fun and cute as a button! She already learned how to sit and is very obedient She is house trained and crate trained. She loves her squeaky toys and is learning how to do cart wheels on the trampoline! She is great with kids and other dogs. If you would like to meet her please apply at www.wetnoserescue.com

These puppies came in today and are adorable!! If you would like to meet them please apply at www.wetnoserescue.org

Foster needed ... please share This is Cupcake who recently came to the US after being saved from the Yulin meat factory. Shortly after arriving Cupcake went into heat before she was able to be spayed. She was in a foster home and since there were other dogs and she was in heat, it wasn’t a good fit. Unfortunately, most of our fosters have other dogs and we believe that Cupcake should be in a home with no other dogs - at least until she has been spayed (which is scheduled for next week). We are seeking a foster home (or even foster to adopt) with no other dogs. She has lived with many dogs and did fine ... the reason we are looking for a home with no other dogs is due to her being in heat. She is approximately 4-5 years old and she’s a very sweet girl who bonds quickly with people and is always smiling. Cupcake is very mellow and low key. She is good in the crate and very quiet in the home. If you would be interested in helping a girl out, please contact us. More pictures in the comments.

It’s not all work at First National Bank and Trust Company of Newtown, PA Joe is showing off his jumping skills.

China pups ... getting ready to head to the US You may have seen that we are planning on rescuing numerous dogs from the meat market in China. This video shows several of the dogs that Wet Nose is bringing to the US. They are all social and dog friendly. We still need fosters! Please consider opening your home to foster one of these dogs. They need you. We need you! Please apply today at www.wetnoserescue.org.

SHARING IS CARING. Please share us! Meet Domino and Damon ! This beautiful bonded pair of Pomeranian/Cairn Terrier mix pups are really sweet and affectionate! They are wonderful with respectful children. (It's unknown how they feel about cats but we do know they love to chase squirrels). Damon is the smaller of the two, about 6 lbs., and Domino about 10 lbs. These little guys are happy, heathy, and gorgeous, approximately two years old. Their previous owner had to surrender them as she was moving and could not take them. Domino and Damon love to run outside and play. They are fully vetted and vaccinated, available for adoption through Wet Nose Rescue. (Pictures in the comments) If you are interested in adopting, please go to our website, www.wetnoserescue.org and fill out the on-line applications. Make sure to include all references. Applications are reviewed as quickly as possible and we do not work on a first come, first serve basis, rather we look for what we feel is the right match. Please give us at least 48 hours before calling to check on the status of your application.

It's puppy transport day. And we need a new family 1. Kermit green eyes 2. Elmo- 3. Zoe

This is Abby. Abby needs a family. She is very happy and loves to sit on laps. When asked what her hobbies were .. she said she loves to watch Sesame Street, arts and crafts.. and licking the batter out of bowls... she also said that she likes to whip her tail back and forth so .. there's that 😬 If you are interested in making Abby part of your family, please fill out an application at www.wetnoserescue.org 🐾🐾🐾

We try and keep the adoption process as simple as possible and match adoptable dogs with loving and caring families. The adoption application is located on this website on the dogs for adoption page. Our Adopt, Shop and Training Center is located at 14425 Bustleton Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19116 our entrance is on Philmont Avenue.
