Still Looking for His Person — Jason

Jason has done everything right: survived the euthanasia list; settled into foster life in Washington; learned routines, training, and trust.
Now he’s just waiting for the right home to finally say yes.

This stunning brindle Cane Corso mix is about 95 lbs of loyalty, laughter, and big-dog devotion. Jason loves people (especially the snack-bringers), greets with his signature wiggle, and is happiest when he’s included in whatever you’re doing—road trips included.

He’s dog-friendly, respectful of other pups, and thrives with structure and consistency. Jason sleeps quietly in his crate, continues to progress with leash and house manners, and truly wants to please. He’s great with kids, though because he’s a big, goofy boy, dog-savvy kiddos are the best match.

Jason’s best-fit home:
An active, committed family who understands large breeds, enjoys training, and wants a loyal shadow with a sense of humor. Dog siblings welcome. Cats are a no.

Jason isn’t just looking for a home—he’s waiting for the right one. If you’ve been holding out for a big-hearted, goofy best friend who will give you his whole soul, this might be your sign. 💛

✨ Still Waiting… Meet Case! ✨

Case is a 13-month-old pittie/boxer mix (38 lbs) with a gentle soul and a big heart. He narrowly escaped the Modesto euthanasia list and is now safe in a local foster home—just waiting for someone to choose him.

This sweet boy adores other dogs and would thrive with a playful canine companion who can keep up with his fun-loving energy. He’s potty trained, neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, heartworm negative, and very serious about his ball 🎾.

Cats aren’t his thing (he thinks they’re part of a chase game), but people and dog friends? Absolutely yes. Case is ready for the love, stability, and forever home he’s always deserved. 💛🐾

Meet Cruz 🐾

This pint-size charmer is a 12-lb terrier mix with a gentle heart and a hopeful gaze. Around 1 year old, Cruz is still settling into foster care, so we’re learning more about his personality each day—but so far, we know he’s shy yet friendly and does well around other dogs.

Cruz is the kind of pup who may take a little time to warm up, but once he does, you can expect a sweet companion who’s ready to feel safe, loved, and at home. If you’re looking for a small dog with a big heart and the patience to let him blossom, Cruz might be your perfect match. 💛🐶

Meet Dandy Girl 💛

Sweet, sassy, and brimming with personality, Dandy is a joyful, affectionate soul who wants nothing more than to be part of the fun. She’s the kind of dog who happily tags along on adventures, hopping right into the car without hesitation, ready to see what’s next. Dandy loves other dogs, shows zero aggression, and is wonderfully gentle with kids. Don’t let her short legs fool you—this girl can move and keeps up just fine with playtime and zoomies.

Dandy has been exposed to farm animals and showed no prey drive, preferring to politely walk on by. She has great recall, walks well on leash, understands “no,” and listens beautifully. She enjoys toys and soft treats, but what she truly loves is companionship—both canine and human. Snuggly, loyal, and endlessly lovable, Dandy is ready to bring her big heart and happy spirit to her forever home.

Big boy. Bigger heart. 🐾

Hi, I’m Jason — a goofy 90-lb Cane Corso mix with endless wiggles and lots of love to give. I love people, do great with dog-savvy kids, enjoy car rides and adventures, and I’m dog-friendly too. I’m just waiting for my forever family. 💛

Fred and Georgia’s story didn’t start easy—and they’re still waiting for the ending they deserve.

These two gentle siblings were rescued from a shelter in Roswell, NM. Their brother and sister, Ricky and Violet, already made their way to the PNW… but Fred and Georgia stayed behind, waiting for the adoptive family who had promised to take them.

That promise fell through.
And now, these sweet pups are still in New Mexico—watching their siblings begin their new lives while they wait for someone to finally choose them.

Fred and Georgia are everything you hope for in young dogs: potty trained, calm for their age, cat-tested and gentle, and comfortable living with a whole crew of other dogs (including littles). They love exploring outside and settling in for the night—coming in around 7pm and heading back out around 6am. Their rhythms are simple. Their hearts are big.

Fred is the snuggler—the pup who melts into your side and makes you feel like you’re his entire world.
Georgia is the brave, independent spirit—curious, kind, and quietly loyal.

They’ve both been wonderful with school-age kids, and they’re fully vetted, fixed, and ready for their chance at a real home.

But they can’t start their next chapter until a foster OR adopter in Washington opens the door for them.
They’re still in New Mexico right now, waiting for the person who will finally help them get to the Pacific Northwest and begin the life they’ve been dreaming of.

Fred and Georgia can be fostered or adopted together or separately—whatever helps them find their way home.

If you can offer even a temporary safe landing, your kindness could change the entire course of their lives.

Adoption fee: $500 each or $900 together
Apply at: www.northwestwagrescue.org

Give Fred and Georgia the ending their story has been reaching for. 💛🐾

🌟 Meet Meg — From Kuwait to the PNW (Almost!) 🌟
Sweet Meg has already escaped a tough start to life in Kuwait — now she’s waiting in a boarding facility in Washington, D.C., dreaming of her next big adventure: finding a foster or trial family in the Pacific Northwest! ✈️🐾
Meg is a 1.5-year-old mixed breed beauty with a soft white-and-black coat and an even softer heart. She’s gentle, affectionate, and loves everyone she meets — adults, kids, and other dogs alike. Her favorite things? Belly rubs, zoomies in the yard, and showing off her goofy, playful side once she feels at home. 💕
This girl is crate-trained, walks well on a leash, rides nicely in the car, and is working on her house training. She’s not a barker or destructive — just a loving pup looking for a place (and people!) to call her own.
We’re looking for a foster home in the PNW so Meg can complete her journey and start the next chapter of her story. She’s spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, and ready to travel as soon as we have a family waiting to welcome her.
🐶💌 If you’ve ever thought about fostering, Meg would be the perfect pup to start with — she’s sweet, loyal, and so deserving of a cozy place to land.

Still Waiting: Jason, the Goofy XL Love Bug

Jason already beat the odds—he escaped the euthanasia list in Modesto and has been soaking up life in Washington ever since. But this sweet, goofy XL pup is still waiting for the one thing he really wants: a forever family to call his own.

This stunning brindle Cane Corso mix is 95 lbs of love, loyalty, and pure goofiness. Jason adores people (especially snack-holders) and will greet you with his signature tail wiggle that melts hearts. He’s dog-friendly, polite with other pups, and always ready for an adventure—car rides included.

Jason is calm in the crate at night, making steady progress on house and leash training, and thrives with routine and structure. He’s great with kids—but because he’s a big, playful goofball, we recommend dog-savvy kiddos.

🐾 Jason’s Dream Home
An active, loving family who will keep up his training and let him shine as the big-hearted goof he is. Dog siblings welcome. Cats… not so much.

📌 Snapshot:
• Male Cane Corso mix — ~1.5 years

✨ Meet Case! ✨

Case is a 13-month-old, petite pittie/boxer mix (38 lbs) who escaped the Modesto euth list the night before his scheduled date. He’s now safe in a local home and waiting for his forever family.

This sweet, gentle boy LOVES other dogs and needs a playful pup who can match his energy. He’s potty trained, neutered, up to date on shots, microchipped, heartworm negative, and absolutely obsessed with his ball.

No cats for this guy—he thinks “chase” is a fun game. Case truly deserves a life filled with love, safety, and companionship. 💛

Meet Faith ❤️

Faith is a 5-year-old, 28 lb. Doxie/Chi mix and a distemper survivor who’s ready for her soft landing! Rescued from a high-kill shelter in Roswell, NM, this little fighter is gentle, sweet, and all about the couch-potato life.

Faith is calm, low-energy, and LOVES cuddles. She’s great with other mellow dogs and prefers quiet homes with lots of blankets, beds, and people who enjoy snuggling as much as she does.

She’s working on potty training (and doing great), walks well with a confident dog, and is working on building confidence and easing her separation anxiety. When you open your arms, she melts right in. 🥹💕

If you’re a homebody looking for the perfect cuddle buddy, Faith is your girl.

🚨 FOSTER OR TRIAL HOME NEEDED — Dandy Arrives Dec 11! 🚨

Meet Dandy, our sweet little low-rider beauty who was saved from a California shelter and is so close to her fresh start in the PNW. She’s about 4 years old, roughly 40 lbs, and has the kind of gentle, heart-melting personality that makes people fall for her immediately.

Dandy is friendly, affectionate, and gets along well with other dogs. She hasn’t met any cats yet, so her feline feelings are still a mystery. What we do know? She loves her humans and is ready to bond hard with whoever gives her a safe place to land.

We’re urgently looking for a foster or trial home for Dandy when she arrives on Dec 11. If you’ve been thinking about fostering—or giving a deserving dog a chance to show you how grateful and loving she is—Dandy might just be your girl.

Help us welcome this sweetheart to the PNW and give her the soft landing she deserves. 💛🐾
