What my friends at OHS say about me:

• Feeling like you're missing something? I might be the perfect fit!
• I'm adorable and amazing, it's a win win!
• I would greatly prefer to be the only dog in the home.
• I am still learning how to walk on leash, especially in new environments that can be overwhelming. I need verbal encouragement, patience and of course treats from you to help me!
• I need a home without cats or other small animals.
• I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
• Shy and Nervous: I can be worried about new people, new surroundings and touch. I prefer to take things at my own pace and will need to live in a calm environment.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I would flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.

 Logan, a spirited 1.5-year-old dog, is ready to find his forever family! This social butterfly loves meeting new people, but he's also a bundle of energy with a playful jump. Logan is incredibly food motivated, making training sessions a breeze (though you'll need to keep those counters clear!). He has a short attention span, so he needs a patient and consistent family who can provide plenty of exercise and training. A secure yard would be for ideal for this active pup to help get his energy out. Logan is a loving and eager-to-please dog who, with the right guidance, will blossom into a wonderful companion! Logan will need a home with children 12-years and up, as he can become too rowdy for younger kids. Come meet him today!

"AUGUSTUS" CUTIE!! little SHAGGY mix (listed as POODLE mix) "STUMPTOWN STRAYS"

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

"AUGUSTUS plus VIDEO " is Available for adoption with STUMPTOWN STRAYS

AUGUSTUS

neutered male 3 yrs 13 lbs Poodle mix 

adoption fee $350  ok with kids, dogs, (cats unknown) 

adoption application

Personality: Affectionate, Friendly, Gentle, Loves, Playful, Quiet

Augustus, our 3 year old 13 pound poodley mix, has convinced himself that balls are the best toys on the planet. He also seems to think they are extremely rare. Not the kind of guy to squander a good thing, if Augustus finds a ball, he will squirrel it away in a special hiding place. He has a hard time imagining that in his forever home the toys will be as plentiful as the belly scratches.

Augustus was found stray and the shelter reached out to us for help. He had a condition called "cherry-eye". This means the tear gland in both of his eyes had prolapsed; without surgery, he would have chronic dry-eye, irritation and pain. We took Augustus in to fix this condition (and got rid of his testicles while we were at it). He just passed his recheck with flying colors.

Augustus loves people and is quite friendly, especially once he gets to know someone. Augustus spends much of his day happily flopping near people to see if a belly rub is forthcoming. It's easy to give in to his demands as Augustus is outrageously soft and sweet. Augustus likes dogs and is playful with them, but we have not seen him with cats. We can do an introduction if needed.

Potty trained and quiet, Augustus has been a great guest. Augustus has come a long way on his crate training too. He doesn't want to be apart from his person for long, so Augustus does better if crated in a room with another dog friend. He would prefer an adopter who is home often. Augustus loves walks and adventures. He needs some help with leash training as he pulls and barks at things that excite him, but Augustus is smart and wants to please.

 

 Augustus is heartworm negative and is current on his flea and heartworm preventatives.

Think you can provide enough balls and belly rubs to keep Augustus happy?  

 

"GUARDIAN" *in foster* BIG BOY!! Dogue de Bordeau (French Mastiff) "OHS- Portland"

"GUARDIAN" AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at Oregon Humane Society  in Portland

 GUARDIAN PLUS VIDEO Available 8/26/2025  #330052  $150*In Foster Home*

Looks like Dogue de Bordeau, neutered male, 2 yrs 9 mth 121 lbs

What my friends at OHS say about me: I came from a special rescue case back in January and had a lot to learn. The amazing staff and volunteers have been teaching me how to wear a collar, to walk on a leash, what it means to sleep in a cozy bed and to be a human's best friend. I am very shy and fearful at first, but once I get to know you, I am affectionate and playful and an all-around good time. I don't like being scared, so I'm pretty good at avoiding the things that make me uncomfortable. When startled, I'll show off my impressive vertical leap and make a run for it. Introducing me to novelty very slowly is super important. You know the saying, "the best way to a man's heart is through his stomach?" I'm no different; I love food. I'm a social eater, so pick a predictable feeding corner, and I'll be a happy dude. I'm pretty happy with a long-lasting chewy, too. My breed tends to be incredibly loyal to 1 or 2 people at best. This means I may appear intimidating to strangers. I need a human who can keep me safe, continue to teach me the ways and to set clear expectations and boundaries so I can be my best self. Click here to learn more about our breed. The type of home I require: I need to go to an adult only home. I need a home without cats or other small animals. I must go to a home with a fully fenced yard. No apartments or busy downtown dwellings. I must be the only dog in the home. To learn more about, my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout. My adoption process: OHS has created a more in-depth adoption questionnaire, which can be accessed via the "Meet Me" button at the top of the profile. Once it is reviewed, you will receive an email with a link to schedule a phone consultation. After your phone consult, if it feels like a good match, your adoption counselor will schedule an in-person meet and greet. You will meet me with our volunteer and staff handlers. If you fall in love, I'll be sent home the very same day! Interested in adopting me? Animals available for adoption in foster homes need a special questionnaire submitted. From there, we will make an initial appointment for a phone consult to discuss their needs, and then schedule a meet and greet. Appointments are set on a first-come first-served basis in the order that we receive the questionnaires.

What my friends at OHS say about me:

"BIRDIE" !!!URGENT!!! PERMANENT Foster HOme NEEDED "OLD DOG HAVEN"

  OLD DOG HAVEN FB 11/18/25

"Birdie still needs a home and SOON!

Will you please share our plea today for her? We want to bring her into our care ASAP.

PERMANENT Old Dog Haven FOSTER HOME NEEDED SOON:

(In W. Washington state or Portland, OR only)

 

 

 "Birdie" is a 13 year old, spayed female chihuahua mix

(probably chiweenie?), 12 pounds.

Birdie had lived with 2 other small dogs and got along great with them. When visiting a friend with a larger dog, she did well with that dog as well. 

 

She is the ultimate buddy to her human and would like to find another home where people are around or she can accompany them most times. She's not happy being left completely

alone, closed in a room; otherwise she's not a barker and is good on a leash though gets distracted with sniffing.... she's getting old and a little deaf, has some arthritis but can still handle some stairs.

 

Her health history until the last few years is unknown, and she's not had bloodwork to check organ function. She's starting to leak a bit in sleep (medication will help that!) and stress can upset her gut a bit. She will need to go out fairly frequently - she enjoys being out in the yard, as well.

 This little dog has been a really cherished buddy/wingman/companion to her person who so hopes she can find another home that will love her as much as he does.

 

 

 

If you would like to offer Birdie or another senior dog on our wait list a home as one of our forever fosters, Old Dog Haven will pay ALL VET BILLS (thanks to donations!).

"PENNY LANE" *Goldendoodle* PERMANENT Foster home NEEDED "OLD DOG HAVEN" (western WA and Portland,OR area)

 OLD DOG HAVEN FB 11/11/25

"Friends, Will you please share our plea for Penny Lane?

We'd love to get her out of the shelter and into her forever foster home!

PERMANENT Old Dog Haven FOSTER HOME NEEDED:

(in W. Washington state or Portland OR only)

 

"Penny Lane" is a 14 year old spayed female goldendoodle, who weighs 34 pounds.

 This girl came into the shelter with a mild heart murmur, but is on a medication for hypertension/proteinuria; we aren't sure quite why. We would want to do an echocardiogram and look into the issue since the family who surrendered her said she had heart disease.

 

She is sore down her spine with somewhat delayed responses in her hind legs; we'd expect that the spinal problems will increase with time. Her bloodwork was good, however, so right now her kidneys and liver, etc are working OK.

 

She's a happy girl, "jubilant" to have company and go for a walk out of her kennel, good with the shelter tester dog and not reactive to the other dogs she passes. We don't know how she will do in a home with others, of course, or how she will do on walks around others. We don't know more about her behavior, reaction to cats, etc. as is often the case. We'd love to get her into an Old Dog Haven home!

If you would like to offer Penny or another senior dog on our wait list a home as one of our forever fosters, Old Dog Haven will pay ALL VET BILLS (thanks to donations!).
