Meet WAAGR's Special Needs Dogs
Sometimes, WAAGR takes in dogs that need a little more TLC. Whatever the case, WAAGR wants to help give dogs the best possible chance at a new life and to help them find their forever homes.

To donate for any of our special needs dogs, click here to go to the Special Needs page. Meet Robbie (pictured at left), our newest special needs dog who needs surgery to remove a tumor on his foot. And we recently have added Gracie. If dogs could talk, she would have a story to tell. You also can donate to WAAGR by clicking on the donate button to the left on this page.

Volunteer Opportunities with WAAGR
(Treasurer needed)

Do you have a love for Golden Retrievers? And enjoy crunching numbers? Then we have an opportunity for you! We are looking for a treasurer to serve on the WAAGR Board of Directors. Training will be provided. Contact us if you would like to help us out!

Another area we could use some help right now is foster homes. This means your home would be a place to stay for the dogs until they are ready to be adopted out! You also would be part of the process to decide your foster dog's "forever home." Training is provided.
