"FABIAN" dashing older Lab mix

ADOPTED! 
Fabian went home today to Bend with a Veterinarian...a great  retirement home:)
 
here's my MCAS weblink

In my day, I was probably quite the dashing young dog. That charm has stayed with me but has matured into an easy dignity that carries me even on the days when my stiff knees have trouble. I walk really nicely on a leash and I will make a quiet and companionable partner. 


 I am looking for a home that can help support me with routine vet care and gentle daily exercise. I am about 10 years of age and I weigh 80 lbs

"ZEDD" cute and funny little terrier

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink

Hello my name is Zedd and I am around 5 years old. My family came in to some hard times recently and rather than leave me homeless with them they gave me up hoping for a better life for me. I miss them something awful but am ready to put a good paw forward and start again. They wanted you to know a bit about me. I lived with an assortment of children and with a gentle introduction we got along great. I also lived with a cat, not my favorite but we learned to live together with no problems.


I consider myself a lap dog, yeah I am a little big weighing in at 12 lbs for the title but that’s what I like so I hope you can accommodate me.
You might have noticed my coat, yes I am not in the best of shape right now but with a good diet, regular flea control and baths I should be back to my stunning puppy good looks.



"NEWMAN" handsome young Rottie mix

ADOPTED!
here's my MCAS weblink

Newman is a handsome young man looking for an active home that is willing to invest in some obedience training! He knows sit, but is also a bit leery of having his paws touched, a harness put on, and his mouth looked at.




 So it will also mean a home with no children under the age of 6 who may touch him in the wrong spot.  Well come on down and meet this guy! He is about 2 years old and he weights 76lbs.

"WOLFIE - I'm sweet young Husky mix!

Transferring to a Husky Rescue group!
 
here's my MCAS weblink

Wolfie is a handsome young man looking for a special home. He lived the majority of his life on a chain, and now he will need someone with patience and time to help him adjust to a new life. He was adopted to a home where small children visited frequently and he was too much for them so he came back to the shelter to find a new home. His adopters reported that he is housetrained and is very active. Kids in his new home should be at least 12 years. He does walk well on leash, but gets scared around other dogs and people. He has bonded well with a few staff members here at the shetler, and we hope he can find someone to love him like we do!

  
 




 


"ARLO" happy young Doxie mix

ADOPTED!
 
here's my MCAS weblink


Hello the shelter named me Arlo, so nice to meet you. I am a young man around old and weigh in at 6.8 lbs. I am in need of some life experience so taking reward based classes would be the a great solution.


We will have fun getting to know each other while our skills get better and better. The shelter also thinks a family with respectful children would be nice for me. Won't you ask about me today? I am around 1 year old and weigh 7 pounds

MCAS Cats for Adoption!

 
 

 

 http://multcopets.org/adoptable/lance


 

 





please note: if an MCAS weblink is no longer available, the cat has been adopted or transferred All the Multnomah County Animal Shelter Cats and Dogs on "Adoption" are spay/neutered, microchipped, licensed, and vaccinated, and more before they go to their new homes. 
PLEASE  spay/neuter and license/microchip your pets, 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  to their homes again.

"WHITNEY" darling senior Chi

Whitney would love to meet you there!!

here's my MCAS weblink 

My name is Whitney and I am looking for a new home. I came to the shelter as a stray dog and this is no place for a spoiled ol lady like me! I need a lap and a person to call my own.



 
 


 
I may be a bit older, but don't you fret, I am still spry! Please ask to meet me today, I am about 14 years old and I weigh 6lbs.

"TEDDY - little Teddy Bear Chihuahua mix

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink
 
Hi my shelter name is Teddy, I bet you can guess why. You are right I look like a cuddly Teddy Bear! While that is very true I do need to get to know you and feel safe before I really loosen up & cuddle. The shelter is asking that only families with children 10 years and older ask about me. Not a bad idea considering the youngsters don’t always listen to us dogs when we say NO!


 I am a sturdy Chihuahua around 4 years old and weighing in at 9 lbs, not one of those delicate types. I like a nice paced walk and some play romping in the back yard just like any big dog does.
Also I do think a regular brushing is in order for me with my long locks.
So lets get to know each other, ask about me today.

"CURLY SUE" Yorkie

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink

Hi there, those silly shelter people named me Curly Sue because I have that big adorable curl over the front of my face. I am about 5 years old and weigh slightly under 6 pounds. I'm so tiny the shelter would recommend kids in my home be at least 6 years old, because little kids might not understand I might break easy if they are too rough. I am the cutest, bestest, nicest little girl. 

 
 
 

 Can you tell the shelter staff just love me! I'm calm and would probably just love to snuggle with my new owner. I have a beautiful coat that will require some brushing or you can get me a cute shorter hairdo if you'd like. Hurry over to see me, I'll be adopted quickly.

"ROMAN" charming and enthusiastic Husky mix

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink 

Hello, my name is Roman! I am a young boy that has arrived at the shelter in search for a new family. I have decided its time to settle down and I'm hoping that my charming good looks will land me in a good one.
 
 



My new family should have no children under 12, should be active, and use reward based training methods to help tone my enthusiastic personality into a mature good citizen. The shelter will require we attend a class together to help us get started on the right path. Please come down and meet me. I am around 2 years old and weigh 56 pounds

"BELLE" the best Lab mix

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink 

Hi there, my name is Belle. I'm looking for a home where I could be the belle of the ball. I'm 7-1/2 years old but you'd never know to look at me and I'm a petite 48 pounds. I'm housetrained and I'm only looking to be an inside dog!  My previous owner said I'm outgoing, friendly, very active and I ride well in the car. I lived in an adult home but seem to like everyone. 
 


 


 I love to play in the water and watch the Disney channel on tv! I like people so very much that sometimes I just couldn't help myself and jumped over the fence to go visiting so the shelter asks that I not be left outside unattended. I'm a fantastic girl, ready for anything, but able to settle too. Come see me quick, before I get snapped up by a lucky adopter!

"CORY" fun lively little guy

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink 

I am a cool little guy looking for a home of my own. I might be small, but I prefer to take on the world walking on my own four feet instead of being tucked under your arm. I will be an active addition to your family and will do best in a home that will include me as an indoor family member and provides me with daily exercise. 
 



 
 

 Reward based training is always a fun way to learn new things about your new dog and builds a great relationship. I am about 2 years of age and I weigh 14 lbs

"HEATHCLIFF" Great Dane for great friend

Transferred to Willamette Great Dane Rescue!

here's my MCAS weblink

I am obviously a big dog but also a big baby. I cannot promise to take down any bad guys, but I will definitely keep your feet warm! I will also likely hog the bed and keep you awake with my snoring. But all of that will be worth having a companion like me as part of your family. Once I am comfortable with my new home, I will blossom into the biggest lap dog you could ever hope for! I am about 4 years of age and I weigh a skinny140 lbs. My rear legs and knees turn inward and I will have diagnostic x-rays on July 18th. An adopter would need to assume responsibility for my medical needs, but since we won't have a good idea of those needs until the 18th, I am available to foster-to-adopt until then.

 


 


 

"LEON" funny Doxie mix

ADOPTED!

here's my MCAS weblink 


Leon is a big dog in a little dogs body! This little guy has a ton of energy and is in need of a very active home to help him get the shakes out!





 He was leery of handling when he first got to the shelter, so we advise a home with children over the age of 8 that will understand how to approach him slowly and play nicely with him. Please ask to meet him today, he is about 5 years old and he weights 20lbs.
