"BEAR" a tall handsome Yellow Lab mix

ADOPTED!!!

here's my MCAS weblink

Bear is a handsome gentleman who has had a rough transition of late. Both his humans passed recently, and then he ended up in the shelter. We found out he had a broken tooth, and it is likely that some of his not so friendly behavior was associated with his tooth. The tooth is now fixed, and we have found out he is a big goofy boy. He is best suited for a home with no other dogs, or a older mellow female may work as well. He is very food motivated, and likes to chase the ball. Imagine that! He is 7 years old and weights 80lbs. Bear is currently in a foster home, please contact He is currently enjoying life in a foster home, please contact the shelter at 503-988-7387 or email animal.care@multco.us.for more information or to schedule a meeting!


 
 

"BIG BRUCE" - BIG gentle goofy Bulldoggy type

 ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink

Hello, I am Big Bruce and I am one amazing dog. I am house trained and will let you know when I need to go out. I am perfectly kennel trained. I am a mature gentleman and won't eat your shoes - all that I ask is that you have a few bones and my blankie for me to suck on (yes I have a favorite blankie). I am quiet in the house.
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 I enjoy car rides and running around in the back yard. I am a mellow guy, but I need to shed a few pounds and hope to go on walks more. I like to cuddle and don't know my own strength. I am about 5 years old and I weigh 115lbs.

"TOOTSIE ROLL" darling playful Terrier mix

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink

Hello, my name is Tootsie Roll! I would rather not admit to how I've acquired this name but instead mention that I am waiting for a new family! I arrived at the shelter as a stray dog so the shelter staff can't tell you how I behave in a home environment but they can say I have been social with people, insecure about being handled by strangers, and very energetic!


 


Because of my insecure and sensitive personality toward strangers and new environments, my shelter family is recommending a home with no children under 8. Please come down and meet me, I am around 1 year old and weigh 19 pounds

"LUTHER" awesome blind Akita!

RETURNED to Owner!

here's my MCAS weblink

Hello, my name is Luther! I am a handsome Akita who has arrived at the shelter without a family of my own. My shelter friends have started me on the road to recovery and now I am hoping to find a fresh start with a family who loves me. If you haven't noticed yet, I am blind. Although I can't see, I can move around fairly well!


 

 

 Of course I would appreciate a home where there aren't a lot of steps and not re-decorated. Are you a good match for me? I am around 6 years old and weigh 92 pounds.

ADOPTED!!!

here's my MCAS weblink

Hello, my name is Jasmine. As you can see by my picture, I am in great need of TLC! I have arrived at the shelter in search of a new family because my owners are unable to give me the care I deserve.

"ECHO" lively young (herding type?) mix

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink

Well Hello new people! Did you notice my enthusiastic manner? Yes I am an active young lady, hoping a dedicated family will step up for me. If you purchase pre paid classes my adoption is only $25.00. I will do best in a home with older children since I have not learned to be gentle with the youngsters yet.
I am already crate trained so I am on my way to good house manners.

 


 


 

 
The shelter is not sure about my pedigree or lack there of so they are calling me an American Shelter Dog. They do know that I am 7 months old and weigh in at 40 lbs. Please ask about me today.

"MERLIN" today's "BEST head tilt"

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink

Hello, the shelter named my Merlin. I'm an interesting young chihuahua mix about 1 year old and I weigh a slender 8 pounds. The shelter recommends kids over 8 in my new home because I'm a little shy and not sure about being handled. Small kids could be very overwhelming for me. 



 



 

 

 Just give me a minute you'll see my cute little lap dog side. In fact that 's just about all I want to do is sit in your lap. Do you have a lap? If so then let's get together.

Hi my name is Luna so pleased to meet you. My family was unable to keep me so here I am starting over.
I am a young lady only 1 years old and weighing in at 52 lbs .
I have a lot to learn but my heart is open and I am ready to improve.

thanks Sarah for my pics!

 I am about 4 years old and have been around young kids, ages 6-11, I am very active and I LOVE LOVE LOVE a game of fetch! My previous life was rather sheltered so I may need some help adjusting to new situations like new people and meeting dogs or even things you think are commonplace like stairs! The shelter is asking that we work with a trainer to help in this process and go to a home with children at least 10 years old. Please come take a look at me today!
