More About Our Adoptable Dogs
All adult dogs are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and up to date on DHLPP, Bordetella, and rabies vaccinations.
Puppies are fully vetted, dewormed, and receive age-appropriate vaccinations.
Every dog and puppy is microchipped and registered with 24PetWatch. Upon adoption, the microchip is transferred to the new owner at no additional cost.
Our adult dogs participate in a foster-to-adopt program. This trial period gives you and the dog time to get to know each other before making the adoption permanent. During this time, WAG Rescue provides food, bedding, and medical care.
Every dog is heartworm tested and receives monthly heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. If a dog tests positive for heartworms, WAG Rescue will discuss its individualized treatment plan with potential adopters.

What WAG Rescue Requires
- Must be 21 years of age or older.
- A completed application. Vet reference will be conducted if applicable.
- Have a permanent residence. The information you provide on the application will be used to determine if your home environment meets the needs of the dog.
- Resident dogs in the adopter’s home must be sterilized and current on all vaccines and on heartworm medication.
- A securely fenced yard is preferred, but exceptions are made based on size, age and activity level of the dog.
- Dogs must be kept inside at night.
- If you can’t keep the dog you adopted, we ask that you contact us.
Adopter’s Responsibilities
- Must agree to keep the dog current on all vaccinations, provide heartworm and flea and tick prevention year-round and provide veterinary care as needed.
- If adopting a puppy, sterilize by 6 months of age. A refundable deposit of $200 will be returned with proof of spay/neuter.
- Puppies will require additional vaccinations based on age, which is the responsibility of the adopter.
- Provide protection from the elements when outside.
- Provide food, treats, toys, care and exercise.
- Do not tether or chain the dog — it’s against Texas law and we reserve the right to take the dog back.
- Do not transport the dog in the open bed of a pickup without a secured kennel.
