Sammy
Sammy recently joined WAG and is currently on medical hold while he recovers from a broken leg.
Angie
Angie is 6 months old and will begin to look for her forever home once fully healed from the amputation and then fully healed from her spay procedure which will happen in a few months. Angie will need another dog at home who has no territorial issues.
Upcoming Events
We have plenty of opportunities coming up for you to meet our adoptable dogs! Come out and say hello! We’d love to help answer any questions you may have and spread the word about what makes these dogs so greyt! Feel free to check out our Events calendar as well!
Pasta Fundraiser for Sammy
2/8/2021 – 3/1/2021
We have partnered with Fun Pasta Fundraising to raise money to cover Sammy’s medical costs.
Sammy (Windy Sammy) broke his hock racing; it has been repaired, but he has run into some complications on his road to recovery and his medical bills have been higher than we initially anticipated.
This fundraiser will help offset these extra expenses.
Auction for Mo’s Goofy
Aug 30th – Sep 13th ending at 9am
Facebook Auction: Visit our special Facebook Page to participate!
Goofy retired early at 4 years old due to a broken leg. WAG has fixed his leg and he is preparing to come up to CT soon!! Due to Coronavirus, we have not been able to fundraise as normal, so to offset the cost of fixing Goofy’s leg, we are holding a Facebook auction!
