Can you temporarily open your home to one of these extraordinary dogs?

We need fosters!!! Fostering a Mexican street dog is such a rewarding experience. It’s the perfect opportunity to support Wags and Wings if you can’t commit to having a dog long term. Without fosters, these dogs won’t have the second chance at life they deserve. Please consider becoming a foster family for one of these dogs, their lives depend on it.

In our highlights you can get information on the dogs that need foster homes and the application is in the link in our bio.

If you’ve seen the new Superman, you know that mutts can get the job done. I’d personally like the throw Junior in the running as the next Krypto!

Here’s to one year of Patrona! On August 9, 2024, the lovely Vitko family adopted our sweet Chona girl, naming her Patrona and giving her the spoiled life she deserves. Over the past year, her leg has healed, she’s played in the snow for the first time, and she has learned what love and security feels like. We wish both Patrona and the Vitko family many more years of companionship.

979 followers!!! How long do you think it will take to get to 1000? If everyone who sees this shares and invites people they know to follow, I think we can do it!

WE NEED FOSTERS!!! If you’re considering helping us out but aren’t sure what fostering means, here you go! Fostering is a great way to have a dog in the house without a 15 year commitment. Reach out with any questions!

Apply to be a Wags and Wings Foster today! Luna, Junior, Takis, and Luca will be traveling soon and we need foster homes for all of them. We will be posting their information in our highlights so if you’d like to learn more about one of the dogs, that will be your best bet! All of these dogs deserve a loving home but we won’t be able to make that possible without your help. Visit the link in our bio to look at the foster application!

Meet Junior!!!

From rescuer:

PHYSICAL INFO:
    •    Breed: Pointer mix
    •    Age: 1 year 2 months approx.
    •    Gender: Male
    •    Weight: 45lbs (20 kg)
    •    Current Location: Guadalajara Mexico
RESCUE STORY - I was found on the streets of Guadalajara as a weeee puppy of only two months old. My foster hooman and recuer was out for a walk, sadly grieving the loss of one of her beloved pups when I darted into her path and right into her arms, hungry and afraid! I think I knew a good hooman when I saw one and I felt that she needed a little relief from her heartbreak. And that’s exactly what she got! Despite the fact that I was malnourished and had a few fleas along for the ride (all better now!), I am a bundle of love and joy that can brighten up any household. You could even say that’s my superpower!
TEMPERAMENT - I loooove hugs and all affection from my two-legged buddies! I’m also a real goofball who often makes my foster laugh by getting myself into...um...predicaments such as getting stuck on surfaces that are a bit too high up for me (I’m still wee ya know!). Some of my favourite things in the world are TOMATOES, treats and cuddles! I would love to be a ray of sunshine in your life and be a loving part of your family forever!
ENERGY LEVEL - Low/Medium
GETS ALONG WITH:
    •    Kids – Yes! I have been tested with older kids
    •    Dogs – I get along well with other pups and currently live with many other doggos at my foster’s house!
    •    Cats – Yes!

What you’ve all been waiting for—new travellers!!! Meet Takis!

From rescuer:

    •    Breed: Husky Mix
    •    Age: 1 year 4 months approx.
    •    Gender: Female
    •    Weight: 28 lbs (12.5 kgs)
    •    Height: 50 cm (paws to top of my head)
    •    Length: 65 cm (head to butt)
    •    Current Location: Guadalajara, Mexico
RESCUE STORY - My family surrendered me to the vet when I was just 7 months old because they couldn’t take good care of me. I was hungry and desperately needed some TLC! My skin was very itchy and needed serious help too. The vet took speical care of me and I was dewormed and had my skin fixed too! I was at the vet for about 2 months and now am looking for my furever home.
I have all my vaccines and I’m a happy, healthy girl. I loooove attention and sometimes bark if I want you to play with me. My fosters say I’m not a noisy dog at all but can bark when I’m playing or want your attention. I am used to being in my cozy kennel or carrier, where I am very well behaved. At home I try to be sooo good but because I’m still a puppy, when I get left alone I tend to get into mischief :D
TEMPERAMENT -  I am an active, loving and sociable dog. My fosters say I am sweet, active and adventurous! I loooove having doggy friends and get along well with others, although I sometimes am excited with my pup energy and can get a little rough. But I can learn to be chill! I’m very intrigued by cats and am so very gentle as I like to be around them, even thouigh I don’t get too close. I am a good girl around children
ENERGY LEVEL - Medium
GETS ALONG WITH:
    •    Kids – Unknown (no footage provided) but testing can be requested.
    •    Dogs – Yes! I can play a bit rough but I live with multiple pups and do well with them.
    •    Cats – Yes!

Even though not everyone is under one roof, the Wags and Wings family is stronger than ever❤️‍🩹

A couple days ago we got a text from Lo**ta’s mom:

“Hi Cheryl! I hope all is well! I wanted to reach out because the cutest thing happened. I told my kids this summer that I wanted them to each make 2 power point presentations of something they really want to do together outside of the house (day trip). My son did a presentation to visit your house so that Lo**ta could see her friends. I immediately teared up. What a sweet and thoughtful little honey! 🥹 so I am reaching out to see if that might be a possibility this summer at some point. Let me know your thoughts! We would love to hang out with you and your sweet doggies! ♥️♥️♥️”

We are always happy to visit with former fosters and we are looking forward to seeing Lo**ta again.
