"ZELDA"    # 406484 Breed: Shepherd  female 4 yrs 6 mths 60 lbs
Meet Pippa, a sweet, gentle girl with a big heart who is ready to find her forever family! 🐾 Though she's a newcomer to the shelter, this lovely large mixed-breed girl is already making fast friends with everyone she meets. Pippa walked like a total dream on her leash right from the kennel, and the moment she stepped inside the room, her affectionate side shone through-she immediately began soliciting pets, leaning in close, and soaking up all the love. Pippa is as clever as she is sweet, already knowing how to sit on cue and taking treats with the gentlest manners. She did show a little curious tall-dog curiosity with some counter surfing, but she redirects easily with just a kind word and a tasty snack. If you're looking for a loyal, friendly companion to share cozy cuddles and daily strolls, Pippa is ready to trade shelter life for a warm spot in your heart and home! 🐶❤️

What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I have been working with the Behavior and Training team here at OHS for consistency and am looking for a special home. It will take time and patience to get to know me. You'll need to meet with me multiple times before taking me home.
  • To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.
  • 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.
  • Give me a little time to adjust and I will show you I am the biggest sweetheart.
  • If you have a vacant lap, I would be glad to keep it warm!
  • I have been diagnosed with dental disease which means I may need dental cleanings or extractions in the future.
  • 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!

The type of home I'm looking for:

  • I may do best in a home where there is another dog to help boost my confidence.
  • I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
  • Loud noises and unpredictable movements can make me uncomfortable, I would do best in a home with calm, older children.

"SCOOBY" *special needs* sweetie TERRIER MIX "OHS- PORTLAND"

 Scooby has been waiting a long time for a home!

 Scooby has *bilateral dislocation of his shoulders* and because of this, he has been sadly overlooked by potential adopters. 

He loves to go on slow walks and stop to sniff everything. Scooby is a smart little guy.  He loves to be petted once he knows you.  

 Scooby was part of a special rescue group. The other dogs in the group have all been adopted. Now it's SCOOBY'S turn to find a great home!

What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I am a sweet and sensitive boy who takes a little time to build trust and make friends.
  • Giddy-up! The staff here call me a pony because I like to stand on my hind legs for easier access to pets.
  • I love nothing more than to be held close and snuggled.
  • I had so much fun meeting another dog here in the shelter. My friends at OHS think I would be great at making new dog friends!
  • I have bilateral dislocation of my shoulders. This is most likely a congenital condition but will require long term medical management with your veterinarian.
  • To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.
  • I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
  • I am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here.
