Meet Wassail

Howdy! My name is Wassail and I live in Houston, TX. I'm a super fun-loving guy, who loves to play, play, play! I can best be described as being a member of the 4-A Club: Athletic, Active, Affectionate, and Alert. I'm interested in everything. The world must be explored!

I am about 2 yrs. old and weigh around 45 lbs. Although I was found living on the streets, I used to live in a house and was taught several of my basic commands. I enjoy taking walks, sniffing the fresh air, and I might mention again that I like to play! I really love toys!

I get along with the other dogs in the kennel and I'm quite gregarious with everybody, even people I just met. I sure hope to meet my new family soon. I am currently living at the kennel b/c I don't have a foster home. If you'd like to meet me to foster or adopt, please contact info@redcollar.org. Be sure to tell them that Wassail sent you!

I am being fostered in HOUSTON,TX. I am available for out of state adoption and my adoption fee is $450 which covers my vetting, transportation, travel kennel, and required travel papers. Please email info@redcollar.org if you have any questions or if you'd like to make me a part of your family!

All of the dogs in our program are eligible for out of state adoptions. Visit https://goo.gl/u4s4sF to view all of our adoptable pets!

Why should you consider adopting a dog from Houston?

Houston is the #2 kill city in the U.S. The City Pound (“BARC”) often takes in 150-200 pets per day either as strays or owner surrenders. Almost a dozen other area shelters and pounds also take in dozens of homeless pets each day and many do not adopt to the public but transfer only to rescue groups. The number of homeless pets and resulting euthanasias are staggering -- the average "live release rate" from Houston area shelters is only about 35-50%.

In addition, RCR works closely with the Houston Police Department on many cruelty case dogs. We are often a last resort for dogs who have faced unimaginable abuse and negligence, only to face euthanasia after being confiscated by the city government.

Red Collar Rescue volunteers work tirelessly to save as many as we can, but the Houston area is saturated with so many pets in need of a home and not enough adopters. To put it simply, we encourage out of state adoptions because it helps us save more lives. We hope that you will consider one of our many adoptable pets who are waiting for a second chance at a forever home - wherever it may be!
