"SID" *LONGTermer* UNIQUE* silly, fun energized but chill SHEPHERD MIX"

 Are you ready to take me home? I am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here ! I can't wait to meet you.

"SID"   AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at Oregon Humane Society  in SALEM

SID #339709  Looks like: shepherd, Mix neutered male 2 yrs 11 mths 67 lbs available 8/21/26  /26  $50

Hi there friends! My name is Sid, and I am the silliest, sweetest guy you will ever meet. If you're looking for an adventure buddy in your life, I could be just the guy for you!

I am a sweet, funny, high energy boy. I love to go on hikes and walks, maybe we can even try running together? I am very adaptive and while I love to go out and about, I am also fond of a good snooze. Laying with my favorite people on the couch sounds like a great evening to me!

Mental enrichments are also a great way to exercise my brain. I have been described as super smart and eager to learn! I pick up on things very quickly. I looove treats and do my best work with them! A fun way to get my brain working is hiding my treats! I carefully pick apart puzzle toys/ boxes to get to the treats. I also know many cues such as sit, down, shake and stay!

I do well in a crate when my family is not home. I cuddle up with my blankets and toys and take a nice snooze until you come back! I even like to take naps on my own and will sometimes put myself to bed. I like to keep my space nice and tidy and have been described as a pleasant house guest!

I have positive history with kids in my previous home. I love to romp around with them. I am very careful not to bump into them and be gentle while playing. I would love to meet any little friends I may be around frequently!

I can get excited when seeing other dogs; I will benefit from structure and space from them. Cats are also very exciting to me, and I have a habit of chasing after them. In order to set me up for the best success I will need to be the only pet in the home.

Are you ready to take me home? I am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here ! I can't wait to meet you.

*Foster home

*Adult home preferred 

MUNUCA Mixed Breed (medium) spayed female 5Y/9M/1W  8.7 lbs $350

 

This petite girl is looking for a special person who understands that trust takes time. Muneca may be slow to warm up, but once she bonds with her person, she has the potential to form a wonderful and meaningful connection.

Muneca needs a small-breed-savvy adopter who will give her the space, patience, and time she needs to feel comfortable. She would do best in a calm home where she can gradually learn about the people and animals around her without feeling rushed. A securely fenced yard is strongly preferred, as Muneca may not readily allow someone new to leash her.

A person who works from home would be ideal, allowing Muneca to have consistent companionship while she settles in and builds confidence.

Muneca isn't looking for just any home—she's looking for someone willing to let trust grow at her pace. For the right person, she could be a very special little companion.

"MOOSE" *Affectionate, Playful, couch-potato* senior CHIHUAHUA mix "STUMPTOWN STRAYS"

 

Stumptown Strays" is a wonderful local Rescue that helps shelter dogs in need of medical assistance (and often helps take dogs when shelter is overcrowded)

"MOOSW"Available for adoption with STUMPTOWN STRAYS

Adoption $150  Breed: Chihuahua Mix

neutered male 15 yrs (maybe younger) 18 lbs  Housetrained: yes

Ok with Dogs Yes...Cats yes...Kids  Yes

Personality: Affectionate, Friendly, Playful, Couch Potato

adoption application

 

Moose, our senior 18 pound chihuahua mix, is very happy it’s fall. To be fair, he was happy when it was late summer too. He was happy that time it rained and he’s happy to see the sun. You see, being happy is kind-of Moose’s thing. We can’t wait to see how thrilled he’ll be to meet his new family. 

 

Found stray, Moose (like a lot of little dogs) had terrible dental disease. We took him in to address that so that his breath is as pleasant as he is. Although he lost quite a few molars, he’s recovered well and is back to tap-dancing for his treats. Moose also had untreated fleas and his skin had suffered because of it. With antibiotics, his hair grew back beautifully. 

 

Described as “the easiest foster dog I have ever had”, Moose is great in the house. He’s quiet, tolerates/ignores cats, and loves other dogs. Moose is responsible enough to be left alone and is potty trained. However, he does need to go every few hours (he’s an older gentleman after all). Moose doesn’t pull on his leash and is excited to take walks.

 

The shelter guessed Moose to be about 15 years old. He’s not telling us, but Moose could be younger. He is very playful still and trots around after toys. Moose loves attention and is happy to curl up next to his person on the couch. 

 

Moose is heartworm negative and current on his flea and heartworm preventatives. Due to his sensitivity to fleas, Moose should be kept on year round preventatives. His adoption fee is $150.
