Meet Izzy 🎀 Izzy is a sweet, cuddly 12-year-old, 13-lb girl with so much love to give. Fully housebroken with zero accidents, she's a joy on walks and loves car rides and snack bones. She's also a total snuggle bug who lives for pets and cuddles. Izzy gets along beautifully with other dogs (and cats and kids too!) and loves following her foster dog brother around like his best buddy. She has a bit of stiffness in her legs, so stairs take her a little time, but she never lets that slow her enthusiasm down. Given her age, Izzy appreciates plenty of quiet time and naps, but she's easygoing and would fit into most homes. She'd make a perfect apartment companion for city living, and while she'd do great as an only dog, she'd absolutely thrive with a canine sibling. Izzy is available for adoption Vaccinated for rabies, DHPP, and bordetella, spayed/neutered and microchipped. Negative for heartworm disease and current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. To apply for Izzy, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available. Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable dog, or final size of any of our adoptable puppies. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the dog into our rescue. Adoptions: adopt@waggytailrescue.org
