"SOPHIA" tiniest little girl

ADOPTED!

I am just the tiniest little girl and I am in need of a home. I am fragile and small and will need special care to keep me safe. The shelter is looking for a home with a single person, couple, or family with kids over the age of 12 years. 


 
 While I was with my last family I showed my good house manners and my somewhat fear of strangers. I know I can grow more confident but I need your help. Like all dogs, I will need regular exercise and reward based training to teach me important things and to keep me healthy.


 
I am about 3 years of age and I weigh a petite 3.7 lbs. Ask about me today I need to be held for ever.........................…

"ZOEY" darling old lady Lab/hound mix

ADOPTED!!!
"Adopted today by an amazing woman searching specifically for a senior dog. She has 10 years veterinary care experience and lives on a farm. She promised Zoe a warm place by the woodstove. Zoe couldn't have found a better home."
 
Zoey DOES smile - just not for her photos today!

Hi folks. I am a senior girl looking for a fresh start. My owner passed away and there was no one to care for me. Please ask about FOSTERING or adopting me today!


 The shelter has gotten me on the road to feeling better and I need a loving person to take it the rest of the way. I am about 13 years of age and I still have some spring in my step.
 
 
 
  I am looking for a loving home with older gentle kids or adults only. A gentle dog might be ok too. Please ask about FOSTERING or adopting me today!

MCAS Kitties for adoption!

 

 


 




 
 
 


 



 



MCAS cats are hoping to meet you!

All the Multnomah County Animal Shelter Cats and Dogs on "Adoption" are spay/neutered, microchipped, licensed, and vaccinated before they go to their new homes.
 
ps -  if you are reading this....PLEASE  spay/neuter and license/microchip your pets.

 Why?  so that more of the lovely cats and dogs that come into open-intake shelters like MCAS (or any shelter) as "Lost/Found animals" can find their way back home again.

"JEREMY" nice little guy


(pls note- I had a recent hair shave, because I was so matted when I came into the shelter. If you promise to keep me groomed like I need to be, I promise I'll be even cuter!)

Hi there, my name is Jeremy! I am a handsome guy looking for a home with children over the age of 12. I can be a bit sensitive about where you touch me, and I will need an owner who understands that I might not want to cuddle at first. It takes time to build a trusting relationship, don't you agree?


 

 


 

 
 If you are interested in meeting me, please ask to see me! I am about 2 years old and I weigh 15lbs.  Here's my MCAS weblink

"SEBASTIAN" handsome American Shelter Dog mix!

ADOPTED!

Hi my name is Sebastian, did I catch your eye with my regal profile?
 
 I am an athletic and handsome boy looking for patient and loving mature family to begin my new life with. Lets say children at least 10 years old. I have a little catching up to do so the shelter staff wants us to go to reward style classes together. I am a smart boy so I should catch on rather quick.
 


 

 I am a super athletic and handsome boy looking for patient and loving mature family to begin my new life with. Lets say children at least 10 years old. I have a little catching up to do so the shelter staff wants us to go to reward style classes together. I am a smart boy so I should catch on rather quick.
My friends are not certain what my breed mix is so they are calling me an American Shelter Dog. Oh well my pedigree is not important to me.

My Stats: I am a black, white with shades of brown male American Shelter Dog, around 2 years old and weigh about 72 lbs. Here's my MCAS weblink!

DOC sensitive, short, and wide BIG BABY

ADOPTED!

Hello, my name is Doc and its nice to meet you! I am a big handsome boy that is looking for a small animal free family with no children under 12!
 


 

 

Sadly I haven't had much direction in life so a patient, active family who is dedicated to exercise, and can use positive training methods that re-direct my enthusiastic personality! Ready, Set, Go!
 
 

 
The shelter will require we attend a class together to help get us started! Here's my MCAS weblink

"MOOKIE" cool young Dobie/ German Shepherd mix!

Mookie (now known as "Hunter") ADOPTED!!!

 
I am a young and active guy looking for someone to appreciate me! I am a little rough around the edges, need some training to polish up my manners. But I am a dog's dog and I think counter surfing is the best way to find stuff, don't you? The shelter will require reward based training as part of my adoption. Teaching me what you want instead of what you don't want is the best way to train a dog. I am a mixed breed but very shepherd like. I may need private training on how to stay calm and go for polite walks in public. I may be a handful, but if you have the time to devote and a sense of humor, I will be the best dog you ever had. Ask about me today! I am around 2 years old and weigh 68 pounds

If you would like to meet me, please contact Cindy at cindy@goinbark.com.

  I may not be suited for a home with cats but another dog to play with might be fun. I am looking for an active home who will commit to required training classes. 
 I am about 3 years of age and I weigh 23lbs. Ask about me today! Here's my MCAS weblink

"GEMMA" cutie Pitmix!

ADOPTED!!

Hello, my name is Gemma! I am a super cute pit bull that is looking for a new family! Here at the shelter I have been very curious about all the different smells, so much in fact that some would say I act more like a hound!

 
 
An active family who likes to explore and keep me busy would be ideal for me! I have been social with my human friends but am a little suspicious of the dog friends I have attempted to meet so a slow introduction to a respectful dog or maybe I can be the only princess in your life?
 



Please come down and meet me! I am around 3 years old and weigh 49 pounds.   Here's my MCAS weblink!
