**AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT!
Meet the Adorable Albert!
This 7-year-old, 28-pound puggle mix from the Bronx is eagerly waiting for his forever home and is now eligible for foster-to-adopt!
Albert came to us from the local ACC to keep him out of the overcrowded shelter system. Unfortunately, his past few years have been tough—he’s been shuffled between multiple homes, making him a bit anxious and uncertain. Despite this, Albert is full of energy and love, ready to brighten up a new family’s life.
Over the past few weeks, Albert has been working with our trainer and has shown he’s a real sweetheart when his needs are met. He loves playing tug-of-war and fetch, and enjoys long walks exploring the neighborhood. Like most pug mixes, Albert is very food-motivated, which makes training a breeze. He’s been learning basic obedience and even works for his meals throughout the day, whether on walks or during training sessions.
Albert gets along with other dogs but can be a bit pushy. He doesn’t always understand when his playmates need a break, so he needs an owner who can read dog body language and step in when he gets too excited.
**Key Points to Know:**- Albert has been available for almost 7 months, patiently waiting for the right family.- He thrives on companionship and needs people who are home most of the time.- Albert has shown great progress with balanced training methods, and his new owner will receive two free training sessions to help him adjust to his new home.- Due to his past experiences, Albert will need a few months of decompression and structure. A quieter neighborhood with an active family would be ideal.
Are you ready to give Albert the loving, structured home he deserves? He’s waiting to be your new best friend!
Ablert is up to date on vaccines and prevention. He is neutered.
To apply for Albert, 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.
