About Doogie

Doogie just joined the Wags and Wiggles family and is settling into his new life after spending all ten years of it outdoors. Weighing 29 lbs, this senior Beagle still has a playful spark, especially around other dogs. He’s friendly with dogs, cats, and kids alike, and really seems to enjoy a busy household. Doogie is experiencing the comforts of indoor life for the first time, learning the ropes quickly with only one accident so far. He loves curling up on the sofa with his foster sisters and is discovering how great human cuddles and bedtime kisses can be. Crate training is going well, and while he’s still working on house training, he’s making real progress. Doogie would do best in a home with a fenced yard for safety, and while he’d love a canine buddy, it’s not required. A family with kids would be a bonus—he’s happiest when surrounded by love and activity. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
