My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Sugar!

Sugar is a spirited and adorable 10lb Chihuahua mix with a big personality. She has a knack for finding the coziest spot in the house—whether it's a plush bed or a pile of freshly laundered clothes—where she loves to curl up in a perfect little ball. Once Sugar forms a bond with her person, her loyalty knows no bounds.

This pint-sized dynamo is best suited as the only pet in her home due to some reactivity and resource-guarding tendencies. She thrives on routine, affection, and meaningful one-on-one time with her human. Sugar’s love of food makes her a quick learner, and she would enjoy the mental stimulation of training sessions.

While she adores affection, Sugar also values her space to relax and decompress, making a cozy crate her ideal retreat. She can be wary of strangers and may be leash-reactive, so she’ll need a patient and understanding adopter to help her feel secure. Sugar might also develop separation anxiety, so a home with someone who can spend ample time with her would be ideal.

If you’re looking for a loving and quirky companion who’s ready to be your devoted sidekick, Sugar may just be the one for you!

Vaccinated for rabies, DHPP, and bordetella. Heartworm negative and microchipped. Needs neuter. Current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.

To apply for Sugar Spice, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an adoption 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 animal 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.
