"CALLIE" fun-loving *FRECKLES!* American Shelter Dog "OFOSA" (Oregon Friiends of shelter animals"

 "CALLIE"  AVAILABLE for adoption with OFOSA (Oregon Friends of Shelter Animals) 

To meet her fill out the application on OFOSA.ORG and her foster mom will be in touch with you. 

Her adoption fee is $340. 

3 1/2 yrs , spayed female, Pittie/Amstaff, LAB, Cattle Dog, German Shep 
*foster home 

 
Callie, or as she is known in her foster home CallieMagoo, is a fun loving three year old puppy at heart. Callie likes leisurely walks where she can sniff and roll in the grass. She enjoys brain games and working for her food. What makes her happiest and calm is being with her human. She doesn't have an aggressive bone in her body. She loves people but she is high energy. Callie has had intense basic training, and she just finished the secondary training and she continues to improve.
 
 She is a very smart girl and she wants to please you. She works with a trainer that will also help her transition to her new home so she can continue being the best girl for you.. A home in which a continuing education is provided is on her requirement list. CallieMagoo, powered by a squirrel sighting, can jump  four feet in the air. A fully fenced yard with tall fencing is also on her list. Probably a single dog home too as she will share the attention but prefers to be the only one. She is ok with other big dogs but has a bit of a prey drive towards cats and possibly small dogs (cat size) depending on the dog. 
 
 She is potty trained, crate trained, spayed, chipped and up to date on vaccines and flea treatment. Do you have the time to give Callie the best life ever? She will reward you with kisses. She is very loyal. She knows: Kennel, Sit, Leave it, Heal, Place, free and down. Loves to play fetch tho doesn't always give back the item so have more then one ready. She must have a securely fenced yard so NO Apartments! To meet her fill out the Dog Adoption Application on OFOSA.ORG and her foster mom will be in touch with you. Her adoption fee is $340.
 





 

"BANDIT" AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD mix " HUMANE SOCIETY OF SW WASH-VANCOUVER"

I'm in a quieter area-please ask to meet me! ~Bandit

 

"BANDIT" Available for Adoption at the HUMANE SOCIETY OF SW WASHINGTON in VANCOUVER

dogs available HS SW Washington (both Vancouver and Longview)

 Vancouver Campus Adoption Hours
Tuesday - Sunday | Noon - 6:00 

BANDIT   #174579 neutered male, 1 yr 5 mths 75 lbs

Breed: Australian Shepherd  $400

 Here's what you need to know about me:

I'm Bandit! Not only am I handsome, in my last home I was crate trained & house trained! I love to be with my people, anything from fetch and jogging to hikes and camping- I'm down! I've been doing well on my car rides!

I'm an active dog! I would love to go home with a family who can help me burn off energy with exercise, playtime, and outdoor adventures.

I can be nervous around new people. It just takes me a little while to get comfortable. But once I get to know you, I'm very loving.

I have some handling sensitivity. That means I have some preferences about how and where I get petted. My human friends at the shelter can tell you more!

I need a home without cats. We just don't get along - even if they don't mind me, I can't be in the same home with them.

I need a space of my own. I sometimes have a hard time sharing my treats, toys, or bed with other pets. Ask an adoption counselor for more information.

I'm available for Trial Adoption! If you're interested in taking me home for 2 weeks before making a final decision, please speak to an adoption counselor.

I'm not on the general adoption floor. You might not see me when you come to visit. So please speak to an adoption counselor if you'd like to meet me.


 

 

"MONGO" ANATOLIAN SHEPHERD DOG "HUMANE SOCIETY OF SW WASH- VANCOUVER"

 I'm not on the general adoption floor. You might not see me when you come to visit. So please speak to an adoption counselor if you'd like to meet me.

 "MONGO" Available for Adoption at the HUMANE SOCIETY OF SW WASHINGTON in VANCOUVER

dogs available HS SW Washington (both Vancouver and Longview)

MONGO  #174740 Breed: Anatolian Shepherd Dog, neutered male

1 yr 7 mths 86 lbs  $400

 Here's what you need to know about me:

I can be shy in new spaces. I need a family who will let me take things at my own pace as I learn about new things. Once I come out of my shell, I have lots of love to give.

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

I need a home without chickens or ducks.I don't get along with them and it's not safe for me to share my home or space with them. I would appreciate a slow intro to any cats or small animals in my new home.

I need a family experienced with my breed or is willing to learn! I have some behaviors and preferences that are typical of dogs with a working temperament and would thrive with a family who understands those needs.

I'm not on the general adoption floor. You might not see me when you come to visit. So please speak to an adoption counselor if you'd like to meet me.

"JACKSON" little SENIOR TERRIER mix "HUMANE SOCIETY OF SW WASH- VANCOUVER"

 "JACKSON" Available for Adoption at the HUMANE SOCIETY OF SW WASHINGTON in VANCOUVER

dogs available HS SW Washington (both Vancouver and Longview)

 Vancouver Campus Adoption Hours
Tuesday - Sunday | Noon - 6:00 

JACKSON  #173274 neutered male, 14 yr 1 mths 15lbs

Breed:  Terrier  $25

Great news! My adoption fee has been paid by someone who loves me and wants me to find a great home.

Here's what you need to know about me:

I'd like a relaxed home. I wouldn't say I'm "old"... I've just been around for a while. And that's made me appreciate the finer things in life like naps in the sun, looking out windows, and the special joy when you're able to scratch juuuuust the right spot. I like to take it easy at home - I'm not up for lots of activity.

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I can be shy at first, but I warm up quickly and will want to play once I get comfortable!
  • When I get excited, I can get the zoomies and sometimes can be a bit rowdy... It's something I'm working on, but I may do best in a home without younger children or people that may easily be knocked over.
  • I'm smart and love to learn! I'm hoping that whoever takes me home will continue working with me so I can grow to become the amazing companion dog I'm destined to be.
  • I love to be around people! I'd make a great buddy for curling up on the couch to watch a movie.
  • 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.
  • 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.

The type of home I'm looking for:

  • I love other dogs but if your resident dog does not like to wrestle and box then we probably aren't the best match.
  • I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted
