ADOPTED!

Hi, my name is Chalupa Supreme, a 8 month old Shepherd mix. I am a sweet but scared girl looking for my new home. I take a little bit to warm up to people, and need to build my confidence, but I love food, and that will make working with a trainer a breeze! My new family should be patient and ready for the responsibility having a fearful puppy can bring! If you are up to the task of properly training me with positive methods, and have kids 12 and older ask to meet me today!
THERE WILL BE A SIGN UP SHEET FOR MY ADOPTION 12/27 AT 11 AM. YOU MUST BE PRESENT WHEN THE SHELTER OPENS AT 12 PM

Chalupa ran under the chair whenever someone walked by the room today, then would come back out and engage. Loved treats. She  needs "safe places" to go when  in her new home (crates etc)

I'm Elektra, a medium-size, young adult, American Shelter Dog. I can be a little shy at first, playful & sweet once I get to know you. My perfect match will be with adopters who understand how to keep me safe and comfortable, who can go slowly introducing new people & things in my life. My ideal home will be one with gentle & tolerant, dog-social dogs -or- no other dogs, as I can be just a little bit pushy when I play.

ADOPTED!
Dec 2018

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Chai, female Lhasa mix, 13 yrs 17 lbs
here's my Mcas we blink 
169097
My name is Chai 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 sensitive to handling, so I am looking for an adult only home where I can live out my golden years. I do have some medical issues that are currently being treated, so please ask your adoption counselor about my medical needs.

"Chai is such a sweet lady! She loves belly rubs, does happy dances after bath time and wiggles on her back in her bed when she's super happy. She'll be a loyal little bestie!"  Brandy T

ADOPTED!
Dec 2018
Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Wiley male terrier/ chihuahua mix, 2 yrs, 12 lbs
here's my Mcas weblink 
175294
Hello, my shelter name is Wiley. I'm a 2 year old Chihuahua mix and I weigh about 12lbs. All the commotion in the shelter is a lot for a nice but scared boy like me. I would like a quiet home and if there are kids, they should be at least 12 years old. Once I get settled in a new home with my adopters, I won't feel so overwhelmed and can show my true personality. I was kenneled with another small dog and did well, as a matter of fact he was showing me the ropes about approaching people and taking treats. By the way, I want people to know that I liked cheese.

Hi, my name is Trip. I am a 2 year old male Pitbull mix, weighing in at a muscular 57lbs. I am a nice boy who loves cheese. Reward based training will help me become a confident companion.

I am Lilac, an active and playful Pitbull mix. You could call me the hands-on type but since I do not have hands I learn with my mouth. To an exuberant dog like me everything is a game, sometimes I just get so excited I will jump up and grab the first thing that looks like a toy. I am up for anything and ready to amaze my new family with my skills. I am looking for a family who does not take life too seriously that will be patient, positive and lift me to my potential of being a perfect pup! If you have kids in the home, they will need to be over the age of 8 years due to my jumpy/mouthy behaviors. Please come and meet me today!

ADOPTED!
Dec 2018

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Bear,  male, rottie/chow mix, 5 yrs 6 mths, 92 lbs

My name is Bear. I'm a 5-1/2 year old Chow Chow & Rottweiler mix. I weigh a solid 92lbs. I am really happiest being where my people are. I would love nothing more than to play or trot along with you on walks. I am looking for a home where I can be an only pet so I don't have to share my food or toys. I am house trained, know sit, down, shake and am crate trained and will be a great companion for someone who respects my wish to dine alone. If there are kids in my new home they should be 12 & up as I am not fond of rough housing and being handled when I am eating.

Round of Apaws: Delilah's Birthday

Thank you to Delilah, who requested donations for the animals instead of gifts at her birthday party.  After bringing in a cartful of pet supplies, treats, and blankets, Delilah and her family visited with the animals.  Bear, our adoptable Chow/ Rottweiler mix, was SO happy to see her!
