WIGGLES's Story
04/09/26 Have you met Wiggles yet? You should! This sweet 6 year old is looking forward to his new life. Wiggles came to the shelter in January severely underweight but since he has been here he has gained over 10 pounds! He can be a little nervous at first but when he opens up he blossoms. Wiggles is always asking for attemtion from the people he knows and asks for pets. Wiggles has been experencing a lot of kennel stress from being at the shelter for so long and he needs someone who will give him some time to decompress in a new home. This sesetive soul just wants a home where he can be himself. Will you be the one to make Wiggles's dreams come true? 05/05/26 What I did today (4/29): <br/>Today Wiggles went on a 5-mile adventure at Hellyer Park, full of<br/> great sniffs and fun, goofy grass rolls! He was such a brave boy,<br/> brushing off a few barky dogs. Since our last walk, he’s feeling much <br/>more confident, taking treats gently and even “sitting” on <br/>command!<br/> What to know about this dog: <br/>• Great loose leash walker – kept a steady, calm pace, if he gets <br/>caught up in a “sniff” he is easy to redirect, also checks in with <br/>his human friends <br/>• Loves people – total lovebug, very affectionate and cuddly<br/> • Tail wagging commuter – loves car rides, easy to get in and out<br/> of the car, sits happily, ready for his next adventure <br/>• Not reactive to dogs or geese, he was curious about squirrels <br/>but had no desire to chase them <br/>Three words to describe me: <br/>Affectionate, Gentle, Companionable 05/05/26 What I did today (3/25):<br/> Today I went on a five and a half mile adventure at Hellyer Park,<br/> where I got A LOT of sniffs and rolled around on the grass! I was <br/>unfazed by bicyclists, groups of kids, geese, ducks, or dogs <br/>(including ones that barked at me), I just kept on walking. Also did <br/>amazing in the car, where I loved looking out the window, I would<br/> make a perfect road trip companion.<br/> What to know about this dog: <br/>• Great loose leash walker <br/>• Loves to give kisses and get belly rubs <br/>• Calm and easy going <br/>• Very well-behaved<br/> Three words to describe me: <br/>Affectionate<br/>Gentle<br/>Sweet 02/24/26 14:45 MH Meet Wiggles, a sweet, bouncy, and affectionate pup who is ready for a loving home. When Wiggles first arrived at the shelter, he was underconditioned and severely underweight. With routine veterinary care, supportive nutrition, and lots of TLC, he has been steadily gaining weight and improving in body condition. He has also received deworming as part of his standard medical care, and while he had moderate dental buildup, he is otherwise clinically stable with no signs of gastrointestinal illness. Wiggles is a friendly, social boy who loves attention and seeks comfort from people. He can be a bit nervous around new things, like leashes, but with gentle guidance, he quickly warms up and shows his playful, loving side.He enjoys being petted, leans into affection, and is very interested in connecting with humans. Wiggles will benefit from a patient adopter who can continue his care at home. This includes providing a healthy diet and regular feeding schedule to maintain his weight and body condition, follow-up veterinary care including dental evaluation and cleaning, and ongoing attention to his overall health and comfort. Despite his past challenges, Wiggles is a loving, loyal companion who is ready to thrive in a quiet, structured, and nurturing home. With patience and encouragement, he has the potential to blossom into the happy, confident dog he was always meant to be. Wiggles is looking for someone special to give him the care, stability, and love he deserves—and in return, he will offer unwavering affection and devotion.
