"BArNEY" AUSSIE/BORDer COLLIE "CLACKAMAS CO DOG Services" (open Tues - Friday 1-4pm) Clackamas, OR

The dogs at Clackamas Co shelter have a harder time getting adopted since recent budget cuts closed the shelter on Saturdays.

 The longer stays are tough on dogs!  Please consider taking some time on a Tues thru Friday 1:00-4:00 pm to visit with one of the adoptable dogs!

Fill out our adoption application. There is a $10 application fee due at the time of submission. Please apply on our website and we will contact you. If you’re applying from out of state to adopt a dog, please note that it is a requirement that you come meet the dog at our facility. Adoptions are available by appointment only. We will call you as soon as your approved adoption application is next in our queue. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we find homes for pets as quickly and efficiently as possible. For more information on the adoption process, call 503-655-8628 or email dogshelter@clackamas.us.

 "BARNEY" Available for Adoption at "CLACKAMAS CO DOG Services"

 Shelter ID: 106326 Breed:Australian Shepherd/Border Collie

5yrs 57 lbs  adoption fee $205 neutered male

Description: Hi, I'm Barney! I'm a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with a big heart and a wagging tail that never quits. I weigh about 57 pounds. I love meeting new people and will happily greet everyone with a friendly hello. I just can't get enough pets and attention!

I'm a smart, energetic guy who would be thrilled to join you for walks, hikes, or any adventures where I can stretch my legs and show off my playful side.

I've lived with other dogs and have done well in my interactions so far, so I may do well with a compatible canine companion. As an Aussie mix, I have lots of energy, so a home with a securely fenced yard or plenty of safe space to run would be most ideal; this is where I'm happiest... playing and exploring to my heart's content!

I'm looking for a loving home where I can keep being my fun, loyal, and friendly self.

- Barney is a happy, outgoing guy who will thrive in a home committed to his mental and physical needs. He will thrive best in a home with a securely fenced yard or plenty of room to safely run and burn off his Aussie energy
-
We don't know how Barney will be with cats or small animals, so introductions should be handled carefully with guidance from your adoption counselor.

- Barney has done well with other dogs at the shelter; discuss introductions with your adoption counselor to find the right match. If you do have other dogs in your home, a meet and greet will be required prior to taking him home.
-
We're unsure how Barney would do with children. He may do well with children 9+ and who can be understanding and respecftul of him, but you should bring your children along to your meet and greet so everyone can get acquainted and ensure a good fit.
