“Saving one dog won’t change the world, but it will change the world for that one dog.”


These doggies need a home:


Marly is an adorable 1 year old Maltipoo that was found roaming the streets totally neglected. When he was found, he had dreadlocks like Bob Marley so, he was named him “Marley”. Marley is an affectionate, cuddly, kiss, sweet boy who loves everyone he meets. He weighs 16 pounds, is neutered & up to date on all vaccinations. He is wonderful with children big and small and likes to play with other dogs as well. His Non-shedding fur makes him perfect for any household ready for their loving companion.


AND


Winston is a pudgy one year old white and brown neutered male Shih Tzu mix puppy who was rescued by Wags and Walks Rescue. His former owners moved and thought that was a brilliant reason to dump their puppy. Weighing twenty-five pounds, this cheerful puppy walks well on leash and is well socialized. Great with other dogs, and good with children, Winston looks like he was a designed by a toy company. Winston will make a marvelous indoor pet for anyone in any living situation. Up to date on all his vaccinations, happy and healthy ready for his forever home.


Contact Lesley at lesley@wagsandwalks.org or application at www.wagsandwalks.org for more info on the above doggies!
