BROWNIE# 392439 Breed: Pit Bull male 5 mths 38 lbs and growing 
 
 

Meet Brownie, a 5-month-old bundle of brindle joy who is officially looking for his forever teammates! This handsome puppy is the ultimate blank slate, possessing a "ready-to-learn" attitude and a focused gaze that proves he is a star pupil in the making. While he is still a work in progress and hasn't quite mastered his full list of skills or manners just yet, his impressive intellect and food-motivated nature mean he is a high-potential apprentice just waiting for the right coach to show him the ropes. As a high-energy youngster, Brownie thrives on outdoor adventures and spirited games of fetch, always bringing maximum enthusiasm to every zoomie session. He is a remarkably active and social boy who treats every day like a new opportunity to learn, and once the training treats are put away and the energy is spent, he transforms into a world-class snuggler. If you are looking for a smart, loyal companion whom you can mold into the perfect partner, Brownie is ready to grow, learn, and fill your home with love!

With his gentle soul and polite manners, J' Barkus is the perfect companion for anyone looking for a loyal best friend who is equal parts smart and snuggly. If you have a spot on your couch (and maybe a slice of cheddar), J' Barkus is ready to settle into his forever home! πŸ§€πŸΎπŸΆ

What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I may do best with an owner who has had experience owning or caring for shy and fearful dogs.
  • Give me a little time to adjust and I will show you I am the biggest sweetheart.
  • Is there a dog shaped hole in your heart? I can fix that!
  • I have been diagnosed with dental disease which means I may need dental cleanings or extractions in the future.
  • 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.
  • Resource Guarding: I have a history of guarding my people, food, toys and/or bedding from other animals or people.
  • I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.

NANCY  adoption $ 350  Breed: Chihuahua Mix, spayed female 4 yrs 10 lbs

Housetrained: Yes

OK With Kids: Yes

OK With Dogs: Yes

OK With Cats: Yes

adoption application

Personality: Affectionate, Friendly, Gentle

 

 Nancy, our 4 year old 10 pound chihuahua mix, loves bed time. Her favorite spot is under the covers, curled tightly against her person's feet. Before it's time to sleep, Nancy enjoys being read to. That is, as long it's a story with a happy ending.



Found stray and injured, we took Nancy in to help her heal. She had sustained a broken pelvis after being hit by a car. Although the fracture could not be surgically repaired, Nancy has recovered well with rest, and she now moves around like nothing happened.



Nancy's foster describes her as extremely charming. She is quiet, crate trained and good with both dogs and cats. When Nancy needs to go outside, she makes a series of funny noises to get her foster's attention. Generally, Nancy is an attentive, expressive dog who loves to cuddle. She self entertains with little squeaky toys and is great on a leash when it's time for a walk.



Nancy is heartworm negative and current on her flea and heartworm preventatives. During her spay, we also cleaned Nancy's teeth, so she also comes with fresh breath. Her adoption fee is $350.



Have room in the bed for Nancy? If so, our girl is looking for a happy ending of her own.

neutered male, 1 yr 33 lb

ok with Dogs, unknown-  Cats,  Kids- unknown

adoption application

Personality: Affectionate, Curious, Friendly, Funny, Gentle, Loves, Playful

 

This tripod cutie LIVES for affection. He recently went to a foster meet up and did fantastic with all the people and other animals. He’s still very puppy like, but if you’re looking for a bestie who wants to learn and accompany you to all the fun bar patios as we slide into the sunny summer months, Collin may just be your boy!
 
 
He came to us after sustaining a badly fractured rear leg and is now thriving as a tripod dog. Collin is getting more and more confident the stronger he gets. He loves running about and exploring, sniffing his way around everywhere.
 
 
In the house, he’s calm and good at entertaining himself with toys when he’s not trying to crawl into a warm lap to cuddle. Crates stress him out, but he hasn’t been destructive in the house when left alone.
He’s honestly just a Very Good Boy and is absolutely going to be the love of someone’s life. If he looks like yours, you should hurry and apply because he’s waiting for you!
You can learn more about him and apply to adopt on our website! https://www.stumptownstrays.org/dogs/collin πŸ’™

"SIMBA".. CHUHUAHUA..PErMANENT FOSTER NEEDED! "OLD DOG HAVEN" (W WA and Portland OR )

 NOTE_ Not yet on the OLD Dog Haven foster list?  YOU can help the oldsters in need if you prepare Now. Just fill out an foster application for Old Dog Haven, then once you are on the foster list, you'll be be ready to accept a dog in need of a permanent foster! 

SIMBA:  male, 13 yrs 11 lb Chihuahua mix PERMANENT PERMANENT FOSTER HOME NEEDED: for "OLD DOG HAVEN"(note: all medical expenses paid by rescue)

 (fosters needed - in W. Washington state or Portland, OR only)
OLD DOG HAVEN FB post 5/2/26  
 
Our wait list is growing again. WE NEED FOSTERS! If you are unable to foster for us, you can still help the senior dogs on our wait list by sharing our pleas. We thank you all for your help!
PERMANENT Old Dog Haven FOSTER HOME NEEDED, ASAP:
(In W. Washington or Portland OR only)
 
"Simba" is an 11 pound male Chihuahua, who is said to be 13 years old.   He is not-yet-neutered.
This adorable little guy was huddled into a tiny ball at the shelter;
after a few days there he's WAY more relaxed thankfully but really needs an Old Dog Haven home so he can get going on important medical issues. He has a good-sized heart murmur so should see a cardiologist before neutering and a major dental. His bloodwork was OK, and the flea-allergy dermatitis is resolving. 
  
At the shelter he met a tester dog happily. He was interested in her but quickly accepted her correction; he is confident but very, very easy to handle by everyone, including the vets.   We can't say for sure that he's housebroken (in the kennel ) but he doesn't smell like urine so it seems he is waiting to be taken out a few times a day. 
 
We hope to get him OUT of the shelter and into an Old Dog Haven home ASAP so he can get ready for his neuter/dental and a much healthier life ahead.
 
Remember that ALL VET BILLS are paid by Old Dog Haven, thanks to donations. This means, as a foster for our organization, you don't have to worry about the vet bills. If you live in Western Washington state or Portland, Oregon, you can join our network of forever fosters. That's right- you do not have to adopt the dog out, we send you out! They remain with you forever. To learn more about fostering for Old Dog Haven, please read through the information in the link below. If you would like to apply to foster for us, there is no online application; one must email our applications manager.
PLEASE NOTE: We respond to inquiries within 36 hours. If you haven't received an email please check your spam folder

  • Resource Guarding: I have a history of guarding my people, food, toys and/or bedding from other animals or people.
  • 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.
