Wet Noses Foster Paws - Gig Harbor Pet Shelter

We have been rescuing dogs since early 2019. Our main goal is finding loving homes for dogs that are abandoned and mistreated. With our second goal being a second alternative to surrendering your pet to the shelter. What better way to showcase them than in a playful, happy, loving environment with other loving dogs in our community. We have a 7 day trial. We typically fly dogs in from Mexico and Kauai and recently just started branching out with other rescues in the states. We do sometimes take in local surrenders after an assessment is done.

Adoption Process

If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs this is the perfect place to start. The 7 day trial is there to make sure that this is the perfect match before officially adopting the dog. Requirements: Read our trial contract; Meet our adoption requirements​​​; Follow up with us sometime between 1-7 days with your decision. Airport Pick Ups: Most of our dogs go straight into trials the night they land. We will send you with a tracking collar and their travel kennel. We can't hold dogs so if you are wanting to do a trial with a dog that isn't here yet you have to commit to picking them up from the airport and paying the deposit. Things that are included during trial: Food: We have plenty of food to give, but you must arrange a time to pick it up from our Gig Harbor location. Travel Kennel: Most dogs come with a travel kennel, which you can keep after adoption. Tracking collar, all of our pups come with tracking collars. This is included in the adoption fee. Once you have done a trial with the dog you are interested in, the last step is to make the adoption official! Requirements:​ Once you decide to adopt you will receive a text with the donation link & adoption contract. Read and sign the adoption contract within 3 days. You will then be emailed the health documents and the Fi collar will be transferred. You will still need to link the FI microchip. Take a #happyadoptionday photo as a new fam and send to us via email or Instagram so we can share with the rescuers. What's included with adoption: The dog! A tracking collar + 1 year subscription. The travel kennel. Microchip Registration (this is through the Fi app *if your dog has not been microchipped yet we will provide you with one). Free first exam at Bayview in Bremerton.
