What my friends at Oregon Humane say about me:

"MOONLIGHT" "ANNA" "TWINKLE" CUTIES!!** PITMIX PUPPIES "OHS - PORTLAND"

The sisters are listed as "Looks like" *Pitbull/Chow mixes*... I think they "Look like" *Black Lab/Pitmix puppies - very cute, big sweet pups!  

TWINKLE has really come out of her shell!  She is an affectionate, silly puppy, but she really needs a good home soon - as she is becoming more anxious being cooped up in a kennel

ANNA loves treats and is quick to learn. She is a  pleasure to work with.

MOONLIGHT prefers a quieter approach. Anna is  the most thoughtful, most curious and interactive when presented with new toys. When she is relaxed with you, she loves gentle chin scritches and will rest her head on you.

"JACKSON" *LOW-KEY* WEIMARANER *needs weight loss*"OREGON WEIMARANER RESCUE"

 

"JACKSON"   is Available for adoption at OREGON WEIMARANER RESCUE

MEET: GRACIE plus videos

Oregon weimaraner FB 

 current  Location: Black Diamond, WA   adoption fee $100

 Weimaraner, neutered male 10 yrs 130 lbs (needs *alot* of gentle weight loss)
 
 
 BELIEVED COMPATIBILITY WITH:

CHILDREN:  6 + due to size

CATS:  unknown

DOGS:  Yes 

 

 

Meet Jackson! 


Jackson is a big, goofy, lovable Weimaraner with an even bigger heart!
At 10 years old, this handsome boy enjoys the simple things in life: lounging on the couch, cozy dog beds, getting pets, and spending time with his people. He has a laid-back personality, loves attention, and has a special love for watermelon!

Jackson is housebroken, knows basic commands, and has low exercise requirements, though he needs to lose a lot of weight so getting him out on regular walks and throwing balls for him in his own fenced yard is going to be important in his new home!  

 Through no fault of his own, Jackson is looking for a new home; his current owner is dealing with medical challenges and injuries that have made it increasingly difficult to provide the care he needs. This is a very difficult decision made out of love, with Jackson’s best interests at heart.

When Jackson was about three years of age, he joined his current family and the kids were just four years old. Since then, he’s been around friends' toddlers and does well with all ages. He could however, easily topple a little one without even realizing it.  

​Jackson is also really good with dogs. He’s a little uncomfortable around small dogs having lived with a Chihuahua in his first home who bossed him around. But when he’s at the dog park Jackson is happy to socialize with the big dogs. We would love for him to have a dog friend!  But cats are an unknown; Jackson enjoys chasing squirrels so probably not a good match. 

​​Jackson loves chasing balls but does not bring them back :), he also likes clearing the counter of food that is left out - haha!  Otherwise he does not have any bad habits and is able to roam the house alone without getting into mischief (he is not crate trained). He enjoys car rides and would be all about keeping you company while you run errands. 

Jackson is neutered and microchipped. We are working on getting him  into the vet for vaccine updates and a baseline blood panel prior to adoption, but if the right home comes along sooner, we will help with the initial vet bills to get this taken care of.  The poor guy is alone Monday - Thursday so we are excited about moving him to a forever home where he will have little alone time,  a fenced back yard and outings. He still has a lot of get up and go and would love to join you!  

​If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, easy companion with a goofy side, Jackson might be your guy!  Please fill out an adoption application.

"We have some very sweet dogs at our shelter who need homes! You’ll find a short profile about each dog with their photo.

To learn more about any of these cuties or to schedule a meet-and-greet, call our shelter team at 503-846-7039. Scheduling a time to meet these dogs helps us ensure staff are available to assist you when you come in. We are closed to the public on weekends, but feel free to call anytime and please leave a message if needed."

"The adoption fee is $200 and includes a one-year Washington County dog license. All dogs are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and have received basic vaccinations, dewormer and flea prevention.
Reuniting stray pets with their families remains our goal whenever possible. When we can’t do that, we look at what options are available for adoptable animals. These options include transfer to a partner organization for eventual adoption, direct adoption to the person who found the pet and brought them to our shelter, or direct adoption to another community member. 
 
A positive outcome is the goal for these dogs, whether through direct adoption from our shelter or transfer to one of our amazing partners. Thank you for your continued support!"

What my friends at Oregon Humane say about me:

  • My history is a mystery! My friends here at Oregon Humane don't know if I've ever lived with other animals or children.
  • Look me in my eyes and tell me you don't want to take me home. It's impossible!
  • I may be shy at first, but once we get to know each other I will shower you with love!
  • 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.

"FLEXO" Available for Adoption at "CLACKAMAS CO DOG Services"

 Shelter ID: 106574 

Pit Bull Terrier/Mix

neutered male 1 yr 2 mth 68 lbs  adoption fee $210

 Description: Flexo is a happy guy, looking for a happy home to call his own! Flexo is a young guy at about a year old and weighing 68lbs, and just loves to show everyone who meets him how happy he is! Flexo would love a home that will include him on adventures and seeing/doing new things - he loves to make new friends, and hopes he gets a chance to make many more with you! Like any young dog, Flexo could use a little work on some of his manners (such as walking nicely on a leash) but he is making really great progress here at the shelter. If you're looking for a happy young guy, Flexo could be a great fit!

1) Flexo is a happy young guy who would enjoy a home that appreciates his energy. He may do best in a home that has experience with larger dogs as he can be a touch bouncy.

2) Flexo has been dog social here at the shelter! He may do great living with another dog of similar energy level and size.

3) We don't know how Flexo will be with cats or other small animals, but he hasn't shown any prey drive here at the shelter. Be sure to discuss proper introductions between any resident small animals and Flexo with your adoption counselor.

4) Due to his size and energy level, Flexo would likely do best in a home that has children who are at least 13 years of age or older, or is child-free.

 Shelter ID: 106574 

Breed: German Shepherd

spayed female 8 mths 60 lbs and growing adoption fee $210

courtesy Kim V

Description: Hello everyone, my name is Parmesan. I'm approximately 60 pounds and I'm an 8-month-old shepherd mix. I am looking for my forever family. One that will spend time with me and teach me new things. I would be a great hiking and walking companion. Are you up for the task of giving me a loving home and some training because I am sure I would be a great fit. 

 I would like a home that has a fenced yard so I could run around. I would also need basic training so I can grow to be the dog you want. I have been doing very well with the other dogs at the shelter. I also love enrichment things that will exercise my mind. Some experience with my breed would be helpful so please do some research on my breed. I would do best with kids who are 13 years old and older because of my energy. I get along with the dogs at the shelter but if you have dogs, please bring them so we can see if we will get along. Cats are unknown.
Please make an appointment to meet me.
1) Parmesan is an 8-month-old shepherd mix who will need a home which can give her daily physical exercise and mind stimulation.

2) We don't know how she will be with cats or small animals, so be sure to discuss proper introductions with your adoption counselor if you have small animals living in the house.

3) Parmesan has been friendly towards the other dogs in the shelter. So, if you have another dog in your house we will need to set up a meet and greet.

4) Parmesan is active so a securely fenced yard would work best for her or plenty of walks to get proper exercise.

"BRIE" Available for Adoption at "CLACKAMAS CO DOG Services"

 Shelter ID: 106572

Breed: german Shepherd

spayed female 7- 8 mths 60 lbs and growing adoption fee $210

 Description: Brie is a fabulous young shepherd mix at about 7 months of of age who weighs about 60lbs and is looking for her perfect forever home! Don't let her initial shy nature make YOU shy away from her - she LOVES to make new friends, but just might need a few extra treats to warm up to you. She really loves to go for nice easy sniffy walks to explore the world around her, too! Like any young dog, she would thrive with basic training. Training is both really tiring mentally and a whole lot of fun, too! Make sure to meet Brie!

1) Brie is an easy going young lady who would thrive in a home that has shepherd experience, too. She may do great as a first time dog, too, if her new family is dedicated to her mental and physical needs as a young, active breed.

2) Brie has done well with dogs here at the shelter! She would prefer a companion who is a bit calmer and willing to let her come out of her shell and slowly meet. If you have another dog at home, please be sure to discuss their personality with your adoption counselor and schedule a time to have them meet Brie!

3) We don't know how Brie will be with cats or other small animals, so be sure to discuss proper introductions between your adoption counselor and any resident small animals to ensure they can be great house mates!

4) Due to her initial shy personality, Brie may do best in a home with no children under the age of 9 years of age.
