The animal’s behavior has been evaluated by their care providers in a natural living environment, rather than oftentimes unpleasant surroundings of a shelter.
WAG foster care providers care for the animals as if they are their own, and learn to know the animal’s likes and dislikes, ability to co-exist with other animals, ability to tolerate children and other characteristics.

ADOPTION FEES

The fees help us recuperate some of the veterinary and in-home costs associated with caring for the animals.
