"ASTRO" good hearted young Mutt (Labby/border collie type?)

ADOPTED!
July 2018

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Astro, male american shelter dog mix

Mcas weblink

Hi my name is Astro. My favorite hobby is using my nose and poking around exploring! The shelter is not really sure what breed of dog I am so they are calling me an American Shelter Dog. They say I am about 2 years old and weigh about 61lbs. If you like to explore and go on walks, you should come meet me and see if we could be a team. Because I want to meet new people and explore at my own pace, any kids in my new home should be respectful of my need for time and space and be at least 12 years old. My new home should also be cat free because I am a little too interested in them.

ADOPTED!
July 2018

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Velvet

Mcas weblink  (Velvet does have a Pending Adoption 7/3)
Hi! My name is Velvet, I am a 1 year old lab that weighs 54 lbs. The shelter staff and volunteers are working with me on how fearful I am of fast movements, and loud noises. Once I warm up to you, I love getting chest and head rubs. I would do best in a more quiet home that will use positive reinforcement and love and encouragement to become a more confident pup! I need to go to a home with kids 12 and older due to my fearful behaviors. Ask to meet me today!

"THEO" adorable puppy Needs a Special Home

ADOPTED!
June 2018

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Mcas weblink
145806
Theo here! I am a rambunctious cutie patootie! I am all sorts of cute but I am looking for a very special home. I am great with other dogs, love chewing on sticks, new people are great and am great in the car. I love food and will do just about anything for it. I am a talker though and would do best in a home where I can be my vocal self. The reason that I need a special home is that I really struggle with being alone. I get very stressed when I cannot see my people. The shelter is suggesting that we get connected with a trainer right off the bat to help me work through this. I will be available for adoption on Thursday. There will be a sign up sheet beginning at 11AM in front of the shelter. Please come on down to learn more about me!  3 mths 23 lbs

 I'm Maxine, the sweetest Pitbull lady searching for a new home. I make the best of every situation and I love to play! If you are looking for a fun, playful dog to add some joy to your life and help make you laugh, then look no further. I will bring endless fun and keep you entertained with my goofy antics. You may have noticed my skin issues - the shelter is helping me figure that out and get me back in tip-top shape! Because I have some medical issues I don't always like extra handling so I would need any children in my new home to be 8 years or older. I may be dog-selective so I would need to meet any current canine companions you have before going home. If you can keep up with me then I promise that we will have a life full of enjoyment with lots of great stories!  3 yrs 55lbs

"MUPPET" adorable copper Terrier mix

ADOPTED!

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Muppet, female terrier mix
Mcas weblink
153095
I'm Muppet, a silly looking terrier mix lady searching for a new home. I am really happiest being where my people are. I would love nothing more than to trot along with you on walks or relax at home together. I'm timid at first and may not enjoy being handled a lot. I can be a bit possessive of my food and people so I would need any children in the home to be 12 years or older and I may not do well living with another dog. I cannot live with any cats or small animals as I have shown some prey drive. Preferably I would live with someone experienced in managing my resource guarding! Come and meet me today - through thick and thin, I will be by your side.

VULPIX  female shih tzumix
Mcas weblink

 My name is Vulpix and I am the dog who is always prepared for a marathon - as long as it is a movie marathon. There is nothing I love more than a cozy, warm bed and some good company. We can discuss our favorite foods while you give me pets and attention. I promise to provide you with lots of laid-back love and friendship if you save me a spot on the couch. I can be a sensitive lady, so if you have kids in the home, they will need to be over the age of 5 years. I also have some medical needs, so please speak with your adoption counselor about my treatments. Can't wait to meet you! 
4 yrs 12 lbs

"Please make sure this little lady is fed grain free/sugar free (not one bite!Treats can be freeze dried chicken parts) and is bathed frequently with a bit of Tea Tree Oil in the shampoo (NOT for face...use Baby Shampoo).. Vet should have some meds to help her itch but feeding will minimize the cause... I know.. I have a little boy with skin disorder and dry eye."
