Wags

Who’s a good boy? It’s Wags.

Wags is just a puppy, born January 10. He spent his first 5 months in Puerto Rico and then was lucky enough to catch a flight to the US. He has been at Responsible Pet Care for a few weeks. He’s a Mainer now, and he’s happy about it.

He’s happy about everything. Wags is a playful and loving pup ready to learn all the things and to be part of a family. He’s got a grasp on doing most of his business outside but will need some continued training in his new home.

We expect him to be medium size when full-grown. His mom is around 40 pounds. His suspected deadbeat dad is about 40 pounds. If you are interested in Wags or any of his siblings, please fill out our application here. Meetings are scheduled with approved applicants.

Call the shelter at 207-743-8679 to learn more about Wags, or fill out our application at www.responsiblepetcare.org/dogs if you are interested in meeting him. Meetings are by appointment with an approved application.
