 Meet Bubblegum 💗, a beautiful female Pit Mix who is just waiting for the right person to help her shine! While she is an incredibly sweet and affectionate girl, Bubblegum can sometimes feel anxious when introduced to new settings or unfamiliar situations. She finds her joy and confidence on the playground, where her absolute favorite thing is chasing and retrieving a tennis ball 🎾-it's the perfect way to burn off steam and show off her playful side! If you can offer her a stable, loving home and the understanding needed to manage her jitters, Bubblegum promises endless loyalty and fun fetch sessions.✨ 


"SHADOW" can you HELP? SHADOW - WEIMARANER "Oregon Weimaraner Rescue"

 Oregon Weimaraner Rescue is a small registered non-profit, all Volunteer rescue group devoted to helping Weimaraners, Weim mixes and other pointer types in the Northwest. 

This boy Shadow with OWR is a really nice dog with medical needs.  If you would like to help him, and help the rescue to cover his costs,  anything would be appreciated!  Any  donations you make will go directly to his care.

Oregon Weimaraner Rescue  FB  Post Nov 26, 2025
 
"Shadow Update! It’s been a long few months for Shadow with heartworm treatment and a surprise (unrelated) ER visit. But we’re getting close to the end of the treatment and he has been the best boy through it all! 
He’s not looking happy in the pictures because he is at the vet getting the LAST TWO heartworm injections and he had to stay at the vet for 24 hours.☹️ And, just two weeks ago he had an ER visit with an overnight stay when he suddenly got sick with prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) and a urinary tract infection. He was in a lot of pain! 
Thankfully, he responded to medications and was able to stay on schedule for the heartworm treatment. Next up, neuter and (minor) tumor removal surgery and that is it!!
If you’ve been thinking while reading this … hmmm what would all that cost? About $6,000! 😳
Alas, we are asking for donations if you are able. Any amount is appreciated!

Or send a check to Oregon Weimaraner Rescue, PO Box 86497, Portland, OR 97286
As soon as Shadow is given the all clear for heartworm disease and he’s been neutered he will be ready for his forever home (if his foster parents can let him go, they are quite the family now). We will keep you posted.
We appreciate your support! 🐾❤️🐾"

"KOCOUM" !!FAV!! *WOULD love compatible dog companion* *SHORTIE* BASSET HOUND/PItmix *scared in sheltert* "OHS- PORTLAND

KOCOAM LOVED playing with his sister! (Tiana- now adopted 11/15/25) 

Kocoam is a young shortie Basset/bully mix. (He has short legs, and a bully face) Total Sweetheart who lacks confidence :(

He is especially afraid and nervous in his shelter kennel, but it is very likely that he will still be unsure in new places once adopted and will need an understanding home that won't push him too hard.

Kocoam would do much better with a Compatible, loving and more confident doggie buddy in his new home!

Available 11/14/2025   #339264  $450

"Looks like" Basset Hound/am staff terrier  neutered male 9 mths 34 lbs

 What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I am a sweet and sensitive girl {NOTE, KOCOUM is actually a boy}who takes a little time to build trust and make friends.
  • I may be shy at first, but once we get to know each other I will shower you with love!
  • Loud noises and unpredictable movements can make me uncomfortable, I would do best in a home with calm, older children.
  • 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!
  • 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.

Meet Princess 👑, a gorgeous 2-year-old Pitbull with a heart of gold and endless affection to give! This playful girl is a social butterfly who displays excellent manners on her leash walks and quickly becomes the star of any interaction. While she might start out a little reserved-a few tasty treats will quickly melt her heart-once you're friends, be ready for a flood of love! Princess' two exceptions are: cats - they are small, furry, and scurry about; and younger children - they make her very nervous. So please no cats and no children under 8-year-old in her adoptive home. She appreciates it! Princess is incredibly affectionate, known for her happy zoomies, adorable play bows, full-body wiggles, and a knack for leaning right into you for full-body pets-she loves attention everywhere 💖, and she'll make sure you know it with plenty of face kisses! Princess is ready to rule your home. 🏡

What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • Did someone say belly rubs? Me first!
  • I sometimes think humans are toys - chasing, pouncing, and grabbing onto arms and legs. I'll need help with re-directing my energy onto appropriate toys as well as being rewarded when I'm in a calm and relaxed state.
  • Mental enrichment activities are a great way to entertain me and work my brain.
  • High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.

"ROMEO" (open Sunday)handsome HAWAIIAN FOXHOUND mix* *likes dogs* "NEWBERG ANIMAL SHELTER, Oregon - non-profit"

"Meet Romeo, our longest resident dog!
 Romeo is a 3.5 year old hound mix. He came to our shelter from @mauihumanesociety all the back in February, and has yet to be adopted. He’s a large dog with a lot of energy, but that only makes him that much more fun! He’s done fantastic with every dog he’s met, and loves getting all the attention. Romeo would do best going home to an active family that enjoys going on adventures and cuddling up together at the end of the day.

Romeo is sponsored by the Litke Family.

 Meet Romeo.
He’s part dog, part caffeinated rocket hailing all the way from Maui. Romeo doesn’t walk — he teleports, leaving only a blur and the faint sound of zoomies in his wake. He’s fueled by adventure, fetch marathons, and your inability to catch him. If you’ve ever wanted a best friend who doubles as your personal trainer, your hype man, and your four-legged comedian, Romeo is ready to sweep you off your feet — and then run laps around them.

If you are interested in meeting me, the shelter is open Tuesday through Saturday 11am – 6pm, Sunday 11am – 4pm.
