"GOLDEN RETRIEVER MIX PUPPIES" "THE BRIDGES LITTER"STUMPTOWN STRAYS"

"Our Bridges litter recently came into the clinic for a big day - surgery day! Getting neutered or spayed is their final step before they can start making their way off to their new forever homes. We’ve been having so much fun going through their adoption applications and thinking about what amazing potential futures they have ahead of them.
As anyone who’s ever adopted a puppy knows, it’s a lot of work (and fun, of course!) helping them grow up to be fantastic adult dogs and part of that is puppy training classes. We are so grateful to @1510Foundation who has sponsored a training class for each member of the Bridges litter, up to a $400 value!
This group of siblings may have had a rough start in life, but between their amazing foster homes, our medical crew, and the generosity of @1510Foundation, these pups are truly set up for success.
We simply can’t wait to share their Happy Tails stories in the future!"  Stumptown Strays FB 1/8/26
 
Mixed pups are our favorite breed of dog. If you feel the same way we do, you can apply now to adopt one of these sweethearts." https://www.stumptownstrays.org/adoption-application

Breed: Golden Retriever mix 

 

 

STUMPTOWN STRAYS FB Post 1/4/26  "You may have seen some recent sneak peeks for our Bridges litter and probably thought “woah, those are some CUTE puppies but I wish I knew what kind of puppies they were…”
Wonder no more because the results are in! The pups are mainly Golden Retriever with a total of 9 breeds detected by their DNA tests. (10 if you consider ‘Very Good Dog’ to be a part of the mix, as we do.)
We took in these 8 orphaned pups at 3 weeks old when their mom was hit by a car. They’ve needed a lot of care to help them grow up safely without a mom, which we were happy to provide. They’re all just about old enough to venture out into the world and find their own forever homes - if you’ve been hoping to bring a puppy into your family for 2026, this might just be your “golden” opportunity!
Fremont (beauty shot featured), Sellwood, Steel, Morrison, Broadway, Cathedral, and Burnside are all boys and Hawthorne is the lone girl of the group! Most of the pups are black, with some black/tan mixes, and Burnside being the only mainly tan pup.
We expect them to be 55-65 pounds when fully grown, but as always that’s an educated guess. They will all be neutered/spayed and up to date on their vaccines at their time of adoption later this week. Each pup’s adoption fee is $400.

"PRALINE" ***good with Kids, Dogs, CATS *** PITmix PUP *TRI-POD* "STUMPTOWN STRAYS"

 Stumptown Strays" is a wonderful local Rescue that helps shelter dogs in need of medical assistance.

"PRALINE Available for adoption with STUMPTOWN STRAYS

PRALINE  adoption $300  Breed: Pit bull Terrier spayed female

ok with kids, dogs, cats 

adoption application

personality: Affectionate, Curious, Friendly, Gentle, Loves, Playful

Praline, our 8 month old 40 pound pitty, has RPF. We've tried treats, squeakies, different lighting - no improvement. Due to a slight underbite, Praline always has "Resting Pout Face". Looks are deceiving though because Praline is just about the happiest puppy we've met; and she's had plenty to sulk about in her short life.

Found stray and injured, Praline was likely hit by a car. She had a broken pelvis, a fractured shin bone, a broken tooth and a badly damaged rear leg. When the shelter reached out and sent a picture of Praline pouting at the camera, we couldn't say no. She's now recovered from her tooth extraction, amputation, and spay and her pelvis and shin fractures have healed. 

 

At home, Praline is an easy puppy. She's medium energy and is happy to cuddle on the couch with her people all evening. In between cuddle sessions, she self entertains by tossing toys around. Praline is crate trained, not destructive, quiet when left alone, and potty trained.

Praline LOVES all people. On walks, she enthusiastically waves her tail at all passers-by just in case they may stop to pet her. Praline's learning leash skills and is good at looking at other dogs without reacting. Praline is respectful to cats and just curiously sniffs them. 

 Praline doesn't have the best understanding of dog body language or personal space. Although not at all aggressive, she tends to walk straight in to everyone, willl rest her head or feet on any dog laying near her, and will lick the inside of other dog's mouths. She'd do best with a dog who is patient and playful and doesn't mind a pitbull all up in their business. Praline isn't mouthy and is very gentle. However, she will knock a small person over if they just happen to be in her way - little kids may find that annoying.

Praline is heartworm negative and is current on her flea and heartworm preventatives. Her adoption fee is $300.

RPF is not curable, but it is completely benign. Want to make sure Praline never really has a reason to sulk?

"LANAI" *PRE-select* pretty little blond SHEPHErD mix "MCAS"

 MCAS needs to spay/neuter all dogs before adoption, especially the females and purebred dogs! Management is failing the dogs and the community, and they have had 6 YEARS to resolve this issue! 

They recently adopted out *together* an intact male/female pair of purebred small dogs!!

 By failing their legal obligation to spay/neuter all adoption animals management has created a MUCH LARGER problem for homeless pets. .....WHAT are they thinking??? They could easily have created a simple, effective offsite medical  facility years ago that would only focus on the spay/neutering of the animals. 

..but...it's not the dogs' fault, and the dogs need good adopters! 

 1/4/26 "I'm available for a pre-select adoption but I can't go home yet. Please come to the shelter to apply! Learn more about Pre-select animals." NOTE- it is important to check at the local animal shelters if you lose your pet as the stray hold time is only 3-6 days depending on if they have any id . Often the dog is listed as pre-select the same day it comes in as a stray
