🌟 Newbie Alert! Meet Rueben! 🌟 This sweet boy, with a heart as big as his paws, has been on quite a journey. Once loved and cherished, Rueben found himself lost and alone after his mom’s passing, left at one of our vet's offices where they refused to give up on him. Can you believe it? This gentle giant has spent over a year waiting for a forever home, and today, he is finally getting the chance he deserves with one of our amazing fosters! 🎉 At 7 years young, this Lab/Dane mix weighs around 80 lbs and is ready to bring a world of love into your life. Rueben has been fully vetted, is up-to-date on all his vaccinations, heartworm negative (that’s right, he’s a real health champion!), and neutered. 🏥❤️ He embodies that sweet, chill vibe—perfect for anyone looking for a loyal companion who gets along great with people and other animals! Isn’t it heartwarming to think of all the love this gentle soul has to give? 🌈 Rueben may need a little time to get settled into his new environment, but don’t worry; he will update us all with his adorable photos and personality revelations soon! ⚠️ **Please note**: No pet adoption here operates on a first-come, first-served basis, and applying costs absolutely nothing! Just a reminder, though—no animal is guaranteed to be fully house-trained right away. Changes in surroundings can lead to little accidents, even with the best of pups, so patience is key! 🥳 For those interested, there is a standard $195 adoption fee that covers his vet check, shots, deworming, heartworm test, and all the essentials like spay/neuter—no exceptions! 🌟🐾 And for those pups who aren't quite ready yet due to vetting, don't fret; you can reserve them with an approved application and a non-refundable $50 deposit once we’ve given you the green light! Wags and Whiskers is a fantastic all-volunteer rescue working hard to make a difference. So, if you’re ready to welcome Rueben into your heart and home, don’t wait! Apply through the Buddy App today! 🌟 Let’s help this wonderful pup start his new chapter! 📲💕
