Meet Fabio! 🐹✨

Fabio has arrived! 🐷 This dashing little guinea pig is rocking some seriously luxurious locks worthy of his famous namesake. With his flowing mane and undeniable superstar looks, Fabio is ready to steal hearts and become the leading man in your life.🩷💘💐💖💓

Fabio is a big boar at a little over 2lbs! He is not currently neutered, so would have to be neutered before going with females. We think Fabio is very well socialized with people. He's calm, and we've even given him a complete Spa Day complete with bath, brush, haircut, nail trim, & style! ✂️💆‍♂️. Fabio enjoys cilantro and screaming at every plastic bag sound.

Could your home be the happily-ever-after Fabio has been waiting for? If you’re ready for a little romance, a lot of fluff, and a lifetime of adorable guinea pig antics, Fabio is ready for his close-up!

Adopt Fabio today — because some love stories are simply unforgettable, especially when they come with fabulous hair! 💖 Call Wheeling Animal Hospital and Pet Resort today at (847) 520-7387 to set up a meet-and-greet!

🐾 Meet Casey! Your Dog’s New Favorite Teacher!
Does your dog believe “sit” is merely a suggestion?
Does “come” somehow translate to “run faster in the opposite direction”? 🤭
Or maybe you’ve got a pretty good pup who just needs a little polishing!
Casey is here to help!
We’re excited to put a spotlight on Casey’s Training Program at Wheeling Animal Hospital & Pet Resort!
Whether you’re working on basic manners, obedience, confidence, better communication, or simply trying to convince your four-legged roommate that you do, in fact, make the rules, Casey is ready to work with you and your pup!
And, judging by his four assistants pictured here, we’d say he comes with some pretty convincing references!
🐶🐶🐶🐶
Training isn’t just about teaching commands—it’s about building better communication between you and your dog, strengthening that bond, and making everyday life together a whole lot easier.
Good dogs aren’t born knowing the rules… somebody has to teach them! 🐾
Special shout out to Casey’s dog, Barb, and THREE of our ✨ADOPTABLE✨ W.A.G.S. babies- Polly Pocket, Fidget and Toasty!
Give us a call today, at 847-520-7387, a Pet Resort Receptionist will be happy to provide further information on Casey’s Training courses!
Happy “W.A.G.”-ing! 🐱🐶🐰🐹

🇺🇸 Never Forget.

Today, we remember September 11, 2001, and the lives that were lost 25 years ago.

We honor the victims, their families, the survivors, and the countless first responders who ran toward danger to help others. We remember the courage, sacrifice, and unity shown in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

Today and always, we remember.

We will never forget. 🇺🇸

✨The wonderful thing about Fidgets…is Fidgets are wonderful things!✨
Meet ✨ADOPTABLE✨ Fidget! Professional bouncer, Part-Time doggo 🤍
Our ✨ADOPTABLE✨ Tigger impersonator has been with us at W.A.G.S. for over TWO YEARS, hoping that one day soon, she can bounce her way into your heart and home.
✨ADOPTABLE✨ Fidget (or Fidgey Didgey 🥰) is playful, energetic, and VERY enthusiastic about about just existing! If life was a party, Fidgey would have shown up early, brought the snacks, ate them all, and has already made three laps around the room! 😂😍
BUT! Don’t let all that bounce fool you! ✨ADOPTABLE✨ Fidget is well trained and ready to impress by showing off her skills that she has learned training with our in house Trainer, Casey!
This beautiful girl is people AND dog friendly! As if she needed anymore wonderful qualities! 💁🏼‍♀️👑 she’s just the whole package!
✨ADOPTABLE✨ Fidget has a FANTASTIC personality, PLENTY of brains and enough enthusiasm to make sure there is never a dull moment in her future home.
Her hobbies include:
BOUNCING!
PLAYING!
Going anywhere at unnecessary speeds,
And being RIDICULOUSLY lovable.
✨ADOPTABLE✨ Fidget is looking for someone who appreciates a dog with a BIG, BOUNCY personality, lots of energy and an even bigger zest for life, just like her!
Because as Tigger would say…
“TTFN! Ta-ta for now!”
…although Fidget would really prefer you didn’t leave without adopting her 😉🧡
Give us a call at 847-520-7387 to set up a meet and greet with this wonderfully bouncy girl, and check out our W.A.G.S. page, Wheeling Animal Group Saves - WAGS for more information on all of our adoptables!
Happy “W.A.G.”-ing! 🐶🐱🐹🐰🧡
