Meet our Adoptable Pups

Nearly 16,500 families have found their forever friends through Wags & Walks, and you can too.

Most of our dogs live in foster homes while they wait to be adopted, which helps us learn their personalities and prepare them for life with their forever families. Some dogs are also available to meet at our adoption centers.

Camper

$0.00

Meet Camper!

Breed: Saint Bernard
Age: 2 years old
Gender: Male
Weight: 121 lbs

⁠This 2-year-old, 121-lb Saint Bernard is a lovable snuggle bug. Camper was rescued from an overcrowded shelter and is now ready to find his forever home. ⁠ ⁠ This big boy is a total sweetheart who absolutely adores people. On walks, Camper is often more interested in stopping for head scratches than getting his steps in. If you give him attention, don’t be surprised if he leans right into you or even flops over for belly rubs mid-sidewalk. He is a silly, playful young guy who will happily romp around to get his wiggles out, but at heart, he’s a mushy boy who just wants snuggles and connection. He loves other dogs and is a wonderful playmate. Camper completed a training program at Whittier Dog Club, where he worked on building his training foundation. He is still young and learning the ropes of his household basics and leash manners. Because of his size and playful puppy energy, he will benefit from a child-free home with a yard and adopters who are experienced with large breeds and excited to continue his training. He will do best with a strong handler, as he is already a very big boy! If you're looking for a handsome guy with a whole lot of love to give, Camper might be the perfect match for you!⁠

He has done well coexisting with other dogs and has been sweet and gentle with children in his foster home. He will thrive with loving adopters who will let him open up at his own pace and give him lots of love.

He has done well with crate and potty training and is living nicely with other dogs in his foster home. We are still getting to know Kobe, but we suspect he will thrive in a variety of homes.

Iris

$0.00

Meet Iris! This 2-year-old, 55lb mixed breed girl is finally ready to start her own chapter. After lovingly raising her litter of puppies, Iris deserves a forever home where she can soak up all the love and attention herself. Since separating from her puppies, Iris has really started to blossom. Iris has a wonderful balance of energy. She enjoys her walks and would happily spend time playing, but she's just as content settling in for a cozy nap afterward. Iris is doing wonderfully with her foster's resident dog and would likely enjoy having a canine sibling, though she could also thrive as a spoiled solo pup. She's a happy girl who loves mealtime, walks, and all the little routines that make up everyday life! She's also an absolute dream on leash! Iris is still working on her potty and crate training, but she's making great progress every day! Iris has spent so much of her young life taking care of everyone else. Now, it's finally her turn to be someone's baby.

#bringinghappinesshome

I couldn’t be more grateful to Wags & Walks for introducing me to my sweet girl! Rizzo, FKA Lucy, is my tiny, 10lb world. The process was quick & easy and everyone was so kind & helpful. They made a huge decision a simple decision.

Lauren George
Thank you Wags & Walks for bringing so much love into our home. We love everything this organization stands for (from rescuing, to providing medical care, funding treatment, donating supplies, gathering volunteers to transport and foster and then to finally bringing happiness home)-- we are beyond proud to play a small part of this wonderful community!

Erica and Ryan Chaliff
We cannot thank Wags and Walks enough for bringing Cannoli into our lives. What started as a foster for Lennon from The Beatles litter quickly turned into a foster failure, as we saw how seamlessly Cannoli fit into our family. Wags and Walks made the process easy, which helped confirm that we were making the right decision!

Christina Healey-Robinson
Forever indebted to Wags & Walks for bringing this girl home to us. What started off as a foster, turned into us adopting our fur family member we couldn’t imagine life without. The foster program and adoption program are exceptional and there’s really no other place you need to search. Their work is incredible and inspiring! Could not admire the team behind Wags & Walks more!

Melissa Sheehan
I’ll never adopt from anywhere but Wags. Their mission and vision is incredible and knowing that the adoption fee goes towards saving more beautiful, deserving pups like him can’t be beat. No regrets, all love!

Ella Baggett
