Hi there, I'm Joleen, a young brindle pit mix with the most unique bi-colored eyes you've ever seen! 🤩 I'm a social butterfly who loves to play and make new friends. 🐶 My tail never stops wagging, especially when I'm getting attention and pets. I'm still learning my manners and sometimes get a little jumpy with excitement. I'm a smart girl though, and I respond really well to rewards and positive reinforcement. With a little patience and training, I'll be the best-behaved pup on the block! 🐾 Because I'm still learning to trust, I need a special someone who can go slow and let me settle in at my own pace. 💕 If you're an experienced dog owner who can help me build my confidence and learn some basic manners, I promise to be your most loyal and loving companion. Come meet me at MCAS today!

"PAX" STUMPTOWN STRAYS RESCUE - teenage (Boxer?) MIX - from shy/scared to Social Butterfuly

UPDATE 11/24 ADOPTED or on hold

"PAX" is Available for adoption with STUMPTOWN STRAYS

Adoption Fee: $300

Boxer Mix 2 Years Old

neutered Male Medium sizeHousetrained: Yes

OK With Kids: Yes

OK With Dogs: Yes

OK With Cats: Likely

Personality: Affectionate, Couch, Friendly, Funny, Loves, Playful 

Pax, our 48 pound 2 year old (boxer?) mix, is really fun. So fun, his foster family thought he’d enjoy watching some stand-up. Turns out, Pax is the kinda guy that mostly enjoys his own jokes. Other people’s jokes? Yawn. Besides being a terrible audience member, Pax is nearly perfect. And now he’s ready to yuck it up in his own home.

Pax was found stray and was an immediate favorite at the shelter. He quickly befriended the other dogs and was cuddly and sweet to the people he met. Unfortunately, Pax developed a bad case of pneumonia and so we were asked to help. After weeks of rest and antibiotics (and a neuter), Pax is back to himself. And that self is pretty delightful.
Friendly to everyone, Pax loves people and other dogs. He’s happy to see dogs both on and off leash and is a hit at the park. We haven’t seen Pax around cats but he’s mostly curious about rabbits, so a dog-savvy cat may work. Kids over 8 would be okay in Pax’s home as well.
Pax loves a good hang. He’s happy to run, hike or just walk and then watch the sunset. Pax is potty trained and very good in his crate. If left alone, Pax may aerate shoes or turn jeans into cutoffs, so a crate or baby gate is kinda essential. Pax would love an active adopter (who won’t subject him to improve comedy).
Pax is heartworm negative and current on his flea and heartworm preventatives. His adoption fee is $300
Are you trying your hand at stand-up and you’d like some very very constructive criticism? Or perhaps you’d be happy just to laugh along with Pax at his own comedy. Either way, apply to adopt on our website. https://www.stumptownstrays.org/adoption-application

UPDATE 10/26/24  LUNA ADOPTED! 
 
"Luna, our 8 year old corgi mix, found herself at a local shelter in need of some dental help. We happily took her in, removed a few broken teeth, and started the search for her forever home while she enjoyed life out of the shelter and in her foster home.
She found exactly what she was hoping for with Karen and her family! Luna gets to go on walks exploring her new neighborhood, lounge in the yard and watch all the birds and smell all the smells, and at the end of the day snuggle up with her people. If you asked us what a perfect day sounds like, it would be that, so we couldn’t be happier for this sweet girl!

Hi! I am Buddy, a fun loving and energetic ball of curly floof. Dogs like me love to get out and play but are not always sure what to do with our mouths. I can tend to get so excited I jump for the first thing I see, and the game is on! My ideal family will be active, patient and use positive training methods to help me become a more refined pup. I think working with a trainer would be a fun way for us to bond and learn together. I am eager to learn and can't wait to show you how smart I am! I am currently in a foster home with a kitty, and may want to befriend a dog-savvy feline if you have one in your home. Apply to learn more about me today!

in foster home
 
Hi, I'm Baby Girl, a gorgeous brindle gal with a heart for love and adventure. If you're looking for a classic pittie, look no further: I'm smart, inquisitive, athletic, and energetic. I really like people and respond well to affection, including some serious wiggle action. I love going for walks and am pretty well mannered in a harness, but hang on tight when those pesky squirrels cross my path! I have a high prey drive, but I'm making progress with the command "Leave it." I also know how to sit, lie down, and stop [it]. I've had some ruff experiences with dogs in the past, so no other dogs in the home please. I have some minor medical issues which the health staff is treating me for, but our counselors will set you up for success when you chat with them about taking me home. My foster is happy to share that I am reliably house trained, and am calm and non-destructive indoors. I am looking for someone who will give me plenty of affection, exercise, and a regular routine. In exchange you will get a very loving and loyal companion. I'm already spayed, and I'm just the right size, not too big and not too small! I'm also beyond those puppy years and ready to live my best life with my new family. Ask to meet me today and I will show you what a sweetie I am.
