🐾 Meet Forest! 🐾

🌟 Name: Forest
💙 S*x: Male
🎂 Age: 6 months
🐕 Breed: Terrier Mix
📏 Size: Small (10 lbs)
🎨 Color: Black/Brown
🩺 Health: Spayed/Neutered, Vaccinated, Dewormed, 4DX Negative, Microchipped

✨ Personality:
Forest is a playful and mischievous puppy with boundless energy! He loves to zoom around and play chase, showing off his incredible speed and elusiveness. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and children, though his compatibility with cats is unknown. Forest’s energetic personality requires patience, but one look at his adorable face, and he’ll steal your heart. While he’s not yet trained to relieve himself outside, he’s a smart pup ready to learn with the right guidance.

💔 His Story:
Forest’s journey to safety began when we received a call about abandoned puppies in Salto Jalisco. He and his four siblings were found in a plastic bag, and we quickly brought them to safety. After quarantine and care, Forest and three of his siblings survived a tough start in life, though one puppy tragically didn’t make it. Now, Forest is healthy, happy, and ready for his forever home.

🌎 Waiting for You:
Forest is currently in Mexico, waiting for a family in the Pacific Northwest to commit to a 10-day trial with him.

🐾 Meet Bonita! 🐾

🌟 Name: Bonita
💖 S*x: Female
🎂 Age: Approx. 4.2 years
🐕 Breed: Rat Terrier/Chi Mix
📏 Size: Small (15 lbs)
🎨 Color: Tan
🩺 Health: Spayed, Vaccinated, Dewormed, 4DX Negative

✨ Personality:
Bonita is the definition of unconditional love. She’s faithful, loving, and incredibly grateful, with a tender gaze that will melt your heart. Her favorite hobbies? Showering you with affection and patiently waiting for her meals. She’s amazing with dogs of all sizes and children, making her the perfect family companion. Her coexistence with cats is unknown, but her gentle nature gives her so much potential. Don’t let her small size fool you—Bonita can jump up to 1.2 meters!

💔 Her Story:
When we first moved to our Flying Dogs Rescue Ranch, Bonita would sneak into the shelter to nap on soft bedding, only to run back to the streets when she saw us. Neighbors told us about her heartbreaking story of surviving on her own for years. During one of her pregnancies, she endured a traumatic birth when a puppy was trapped for 1.5 days before being helped. Determined to give her a better life, we worked tirelessly to earn her trust, provide medical care, and rehabilitate her.

🌎 Waiting for You:
Bonita is currently in Mexico, waiting for a family in the Pacific Northwest to commit to a 10-day trial with her. Her adoption fee is $600, which helps cover her care and transport.

🎉 2024: A Year to Remember! 🐾

As the year comes to a close, we’re reflecting on an incredible 2024 at NorthWest Wag. Thanks to YOU—our amazing supporters, adopters, and volunteers—we helped 135 dogs and cats find their forever homes this year! 🏡💖

Our animals came to us from all over—local partners, abandoned animals, and even as far as Mexico, Kuwait, New Mexico, and California. Each one had a unique journey, but they all found the same happy ending: a loving forever home. 🌍🐕🐈

Thank you for choosing to adopt a rescue and giving these animals the second chance they so deeply deserved. Your compassion changes lives, and we couldn’t do this without you. 💕

Here’s to an even brighter 2025 filled with more happy tails, big hearts, and second chances. Together, we’re unstoppable! 💪🐾

🎉What a way to end 2024! Please Celebrate with us!!!🎉

From Broken to Beloved: Fossi’s Journey to Forever 💛🐾

In March 2023, Fossi was tagged for rescue—a scared, shut-down pup with injuries we could never fully fathom. He was terrified of humans, unsure if he could ever trust again. 💔

In September 2023, his life changed when he entered the care of an extraordinary foster family. They saw beyond his fears and poured their hearts into helping him heal. 🏡💕 With endless patience, love, and daily dedication, they showed Fossi that kindness exists. They celebrated every tiny victory, from his first tail wag to the moments he leaned in for affection. 🐶✨ For over a year, they gave him a safe space to grow, never giving up on him.

Then, a wonderful couple who had followed Fossi’s journey wanted to meet him. 👫💖 They knew his story and came with open hearts and no expectations. Fossi, as always, was hesitant, but they gave him the time and space he needed to feel safe. 🌟

By the end of December 2024, Fossi’s walls had come down, and his future was clear. 🎉 He was officially adopted into their family, where he is now cherished and loved beyond measure. 🥰🐾

To Fossi’s foster family: you were his lifeline, his safe haven, and his greatest advocates. Your patience, love, and commitment gave him the chance to trust again. 🙏❤️ To his forever family: thank you for opening your hearts to him and giving him the home he so deeply deserved. 🏠💛

Fossi, your journey reminds us that love and patience can heal even the deepest wounds. Enjoy your new life, Fossi—filled with belly rubs, long naps, and all the happiness in the world. 🛏️🐕✨ You’ve earned it! We love you!

✨ Meet Star! ✨

Also known as Starlight, Starry Sky, or just Sweetie, this shy beauty is a 12-month-old mix (Husky with a hint of Whippet?). 🌌 She’s a gentle soul with blue eyes, a curly tail, and the potential to run miles if given the chance!

🐾 About Star:

Dog-friendly: Loves her foster siblings (a Doberman mix & Chihuahua mix)
Kid-friendly: Best with older kids (16+), as she’s still building confidence
Cat-friendly: Has lived previously with cats
Potty & crate trained (but still learning to trust the leash process)
Temperament: Sweet, innocent, and learning to let her walls down 💕
Star’s ideal home is calm and quiet, with another dog to show her the ropes. She’s not destructive, loves ear rubs, and will melt your heart with her gentle nature.

Could you be the one to give Star her forever home? 🏡

🌟 Meet Rooster! 🌟

This handsome boy is one of 11 puppies saved from euthanasia in an overcrowded shelter in Roswell, NM. After being raised in foster care there, Rooster made his way to the PNW in search of his forever family. 🐾

🐶 About Rooster:
✨ Approx. 6 months old, Shepherd/Husky mix
✨ Potty trained
✨ Gentle and playful with other dogs
✨ Sleeps in his crate like a champ

Rooster is blossoming in his foster home! 🌼 He’s growing more confident every day, wags his long tail with excitement, and even does the cutest tippy taps when you come home. 🐾 He’s great with kids, loves hugs, and isn’t afraid of elevators. Oh, and his little talking noises when he’s excited? Heart-melting. 🥰

While he’s learning the ropes of being a pup, he’s still working on staying out of trouble at night—so the crate is his cozy spot for now. 🛏️

Could Rooster be the perfect addition to your family? 🏡
