Meet our Adoptable Pups
Nearly 16,500 families have found their forever friends through Wags & Walks, and you can too.
Most of our dogs live in foster homes while they wait to be adopted, which helps us learn their personalities and prepare them for life with their forever families. Some dogs are also available to meet at our adoption centers.

Who We Are
Wags and Walks is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dog rescue dedicated to saving at-risk dogs and helping them find loving homes.
Founded in 2011 by Lesley Brog, we partner with overcrowded shelters to rescue dogs in need and place them in foster homes while they wait for adoption. Today, with locations in Los Angeles and Nashville, more than 16,500 dogs have found their forever families through Wags & Walks.
Through our Wags for Good initiative, we also support pets and families in our communities by expanding access to veterinary care, pet food resources, and emergency support programs that help keep dogs healthy and in loving homes.

Meet Norbert!
Breed: Schnauzer Mix
Age: 2 years old
Gender: Male
Weight: 10 lbs
This 2-year-old, 10-lb Schnauzer mix is a loving, loyal little guy. We rescued Norbert from an overcrowded shelter. He was overwhelmed in that environment and immediately started to open up when he arrived at our adoption center. Now, he is in a comfortable foster home and learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. This sweet, affectionate boy wants to be your loyal shadow. He is happiest when he is sitting beside you and getting gentle pets. Norbert does have the occasional silly, playful streak, especially as he gets more comfortable. He can be hesitant when meeting new friends and is working on building his confidence, especially when he’s out and about. Norbert is fully potty-trained and walks well on a leash. He will thrive with patient adopters who will give him lots of snuggles and help him continue to build his confidence. If you’re looking for an adorable little love bug to be your loyal shadow, Norbert could be your perfect match!
