WAG to host open house at Halfway Home Ranch

Welfare for Animals Guild (WAG) invites the public to their two open house events to be held this summer at the Halfway Home Ranch, 751 McComb Road. Events are set for 10:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m. on Saturday, July 8, and Saturday, Aug. 12.

A local dog rescue founded in 2001, WAG is a 501(c)3 nonprofit serving Clallam and surrounding communities.

The Halfway Home Ranch officially opened in October 2017 to provide a safe and loving home for dogs while they are readied for adoption to their “forever” home.

The public is welcome to come tour the facility and meet the dogs in person; normally the ranch is open by appointment only.

Note: Visitors will be asked to step onto a wet shoe-sanitizer sponge mat upon entering the grounds to protect the dogs and puppies from parvovirus and other contaminants, and WAG asks visitors to not bring their own personal dogs to the event, as only WAG dogs are allowed on the property.

There will be volunteers to show the dogs and puppies and discuss their individual personalities and profiles.

“Staff and volunteers have been training the dogs … helping them become good dog citizens as they await their new loving homes,” WAG representatives said. “They are going to put their best paws forward to try to impress you!”
