"OSLO" little Border Terrier mix "STUMPTOWN STRAYS"

 

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

 "OSLO" is Available for adoption with STUMPTOWN STRAYS

Border Terrier, neutered male, house trained, 18 mths 13 lbs

Dogs- yes Cats-yes, Kids - over 10  Adoption fee $400

Personality: Affectionate, Loves, Friendly

Oslo, our 18 month old 13 pound terrier, would like a belly rub. Don't have time? Don't worry, Oslo will sploot and drag himself on the floor to rub his OWN belly. Like Miley Cyrus taught us, it's important to be able to hold your own hand. But we don't want Oslo to have to take himself dancing; let's find him an adopter instead.

Oslo was found stray, so we don't know much about his first home. We do know Oslo's first person potty trained him and taught him how to walk on a leash. Although a little shy, Oslo is very friendly once he warms up. He would likely do fine with kids over 10 years old. He is crate trained and can be trusted to be alone in the house. We have not seen Oslo with cats; we suspect he'd be fine with a dog savvy one. Oslo is polite to dogs, even the ones he meets on leash. We wouldn't say he's a dog's dog though and Oslo would also be happy being the only pet.

Not particularly playful, Oslo prefers instead to take walks and get scratches. He loves baths and gets the zoomies when he's clean. Oslo is both sweet and opinionated. Like most terriers, he growls when he's being pestered too much by other dogs and he's not entirely demure when taking treats (neither are we, Oslo). Otherwise, Oslo is a very mannered young man.

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

Don't leave poor Oslo rubbing his own belly. Apply to adopt

"STEWART" CUTIE! scruffy Little loving introvert - "STUMPTOWN STRAYS

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

 "STEWART" is Available for adoption with STUMPTOWN STRAYS

Terrier/chihuahua, neutered male, house trained, 1 yr, 11 lb

Dogs- yes Cats-yes, Kids -no  Adoption fee $350

Personality: Loves, Gentle, Funny, Affectionate

Do you ever look around and decide, nope, not today. Today, I will not make any new friends; I will not try any new things. Today, I will hang out with the one person I like and I will mind my own business? So does Stewart, our 1 year old 11 pound terrier mix! He looks around most days and decides, nah, let's stay home and cuddle. We can try to be social tomorrow. Our perfect introvert needs his own person to shut out the world with.

Stewart came to us after having been found injured. We suspect he was hit by a car. Although he did not sustain any broken bones, he was in shock and needed time to heal. Since we've had him, Stewart has made a full recovery and has had a dental (he had to lose a broken tooth) and a neuter.

It's hard for Stewart to make new friends. He takes several days before he trusts someone but once he does, he trusts them completely.. Stewart snuggles HARD and would be best for someone who wants to dote on a little dog. He appreciates scratches, full belly rubs, and foot massages.

Stewart has a lot to learn about being a dog. He is practicing walking on a leash, but the outside world is still a little alarming. For that reason, he should be adopted by someone who has a safe, secure space for him to pee. Stewart would like a low traffic, quiet home. Kids would scare the daylights out of him. But, Stewart loves other animals, both dogs and cats. Stewart would thrive with another friendly dog to pal around with. He is potty and crate trained and has been a good house guest.

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

It's a perfectly fine choice to NOT go to the party. Agree?
