WAG Rescue announces our “Foodies for Fidos” program with participating local restaurants. Every Tuesday for the month of May , Kate's Place will donate a percentage of their proceeds from sales to WAG Rescue. So, EAT, DRINK and HELP SAVE A DOG! We are very grateful to Kate's Place for their generous support of the many dogs and puppies in need of a second chance.
Kate's Place is located at 600 FM2325, in Wimberley, 512-722-3744. Kate's Place uses only fresh, seasonal, and locally produced food to generate daily specials that complement varied lunch and dinner menus. Enjoy a glass of wine or specialty beer on their patio.
Thank you to The Leaning Pear for their participation in Foodies for Fidos for the month of April. It was a great success.
OUR DOGS IN NEED
SNOW
Snow was found New Year's Eve walking down the middle of the road. She looked pitiful, barely able to walk. She was immediately taken to the vet. Besides being horribly malnourished and exhausted, she was found to be heartworm positive and pregnant. January 18th, Snow delivered 8 healthy puppies, four males, four females. All of the puppies have been adopted to wonderful homes. Snow will have her heartworm treatment and then be in recovery for 4 to 6 weeks. Please donate to Snow's care.
TINK
Tink is a Chihuahua mix, 3 1/2 y/o. She is a sweet, affectionate dog and heartworm positive. Tink will have her treatment and then be in recovery for 4 to 6 weeks. Please donate to Tink's care.
Blondie
Blondie is a yellow Lab, estimated at 3 y/o. She was found mid March, the finder held on to her as we looked for the owner. We know the owner is out there somewhere as we returned this dog to him in December last year. WAG now has her. Sadly she is extremely overweight. She came in at 110# and limping badly. We have placed her on diet food and the weight is coming off slowly. We feel we have given the owner plenty of time to come forward. As soon as she is at a healthy weight we will have her spayed and up for adoption.

WAG Rescue is a volunteer supported organization. Our volunteers are the heart of our organization, and we could not rescue and adopt out our dogs without their help. Please read about the many ways you can help the dogs by becoming a WAG Rescue Volunteer…
The foster family is a very important part of WAG Rescue. It’s through the generous hearts and homes of fosters that we ensure the animals who come into our care will never again be alone, hungry, sick, or afraid. We can only rescue as many dogs as we have foster homes available. All we ask is for you to open your heart and your home to a dog in need of a second chance. Please read about our Foster Care Program…
BAKE SALE - MAY 12TH was a HUGE success! We are so grateful to Brookshire Brothers, the Wimberley community and our volunteers. Thank you for helping the dogs.
