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.

Who We Are
Wags and Walks is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dog rescue dedicated to saving at-risk dogs and helping them find loving homes.
Founded in 2011 by Lesley Brog, we partner with overcrowded shelters to rescue dogs in need and place them in foster homes while they wait for adoption. Today, with locations in Los Angeles and Nashville, more than 16,500 dogs have found their forever families through Wags & Walks.
Through our Wags for Good initiative, we also support pets and families in our communities by expanding access to veterinary care, pet food resources, and emergency support programs that help keep dogs healthy and in loving homes.

Meet Owl!
Breed: Mixed Breed
Age: 1 year old
Gender: Male
Weight: 43 lbs
This 1-year-old, 43-lb pup is a sweet, loving boy who, in just one year, has already been through so much. Owl and his brothers, Pooh and Eeyore, were picked up as strays and brought to the shelter in critical condition. All three were severely malnourished and completely infested with fleas and ticks. We knew that after all they had been through, they deserved a second chance, so we decided to take them in. They received urgent medical exams upon their arrival at our rescue. Our team worked quickly to get them stable, and now all three boys are doing well on their way to becoming normal, healthy pups. All Owl needs is a loving forever home.
He is an absolute love bug who greets everyone he meets with kisses and a wagging tail. Owl is happiest when he’s able to relax and cuddle up with his favorite people. He has lived well with little kids and other dogs in his foster home. This social, outgoing guy enjoys exploring when he's out and about and is doing well with pack walks with his foster siblings. He's even done great living with a toddler in his foster home. This smart boy is working on mastering his household. basics and will thrive with adopters who are excited to guide him as he continues to grow up. If you’re looking for an affectionate, spunky pup, Owl could be your guy!
