A 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal rescue with a passion to save animals one waggy butt at a time.
WAGGY BUTTS & HAPPY MUTTS WELCOMES YOU
WHO WE ARE
At Waggy Butts & Happy Mutts, our passion for animal rescue stems from a deep commitment to improving the lives of animals in need. Every animal deserves a chance at a happy, healthy life, free from neglect and abuse. Unfortunately, many animals find themselves in situations where they are abandoned, mistreated, or simply unable to find a loving home. This is where our mission begins.​
We are located in New Jersey with fosters/adopters in NJ, PA, DE, and NY. We are foster/volunteer based and 100% operated on donations.
Our goals:
-
Animal-Forward Approach: We prioritize the well-being of animals in all that we do. We believe that every animal has an inherent value and deserves compassion and care.
-
Improving Lives: Our goal is not just to rescue animals from dire situations, but to also provide them with the love, medical attention, and rehabilitation they need to thrive.
-
Transparency: We are committed to being open and honest in all our actions and relationships.
-
Suitable Homes: We ensure that animals in need of adoption or foster care are placed in suitable and approved homes.
ADOPT OR FOSTER
The Focus of Our Efforts
FOSTER A DOG
Help animals in need
By temporarily taking in an animal in need, you are: freeing a space so that the shelter or rescue may take in another dog; saving them from possible euthanasia; providing your foster dog the time he needs to be ready for adoption; and assisting our rescue in learning more about the dog so he/she can go into the best home possible.
Volunteer Opportunities
As we grow as a rescue, we are looking for more animal lovers to join our already awesome team of amazing people! A lot of what we need help with can be done remotely. Join us in our mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome animals in need. Together, we can make a world of difference, one waggy butt and happy mutt at a time.
DONATE
We operate based on donations. We are constantly striving to do more for dogs in our community, and part of that endeavor includes being careful with the donations we receive. Your donation will help us save more animals by providing food, supplies, veterinary treatment, and other resources needed to continue saving animals in need. No amount is too big or too small and we truly appreciate every dollar we get. We can provide you with a receipt for tax purposes as well.
