https://www.multcopets.org/adoptable/240759

Dogs like me are really sweet with people when we feel at home, especially when we know them well. In new places, we tend to need a little time to figure out the coast is clear. Once I feel at home, I will be your bosom buddy. My ideal family will be active, patient and use positive training methods to help me become a more refined pup. I think working with a trainer would be a fun way for us to bond and learn together. I am eager to learn and can't wait to show you how smart I am! I came from a home with other dogs, so if you have a social dog at home we may get along, after proper introductions of course!

"PANDA" crate-trained, potty-trained, pretty pitmix

UPDATE 6/11/23 Adopted

"PANDA" is Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!
MCAS hours/ Location

Adoption cost: $160.00

License fee: $27.00 (Multnomah County residents only)

Animal ID: 285798, 2 yrs 7 mths 69 lbs

https://www.multcopets.org/adoptable/272664

no dogs, no cats in her new home

I am Panda, a fun-loving and energetic mixed breed dog. I am large and in charge and I want to be an only pet so I can have all the attention! Because I want to be the only one, I am not a dog park pup. Neighborhood walks and a fenced yard to play in would be wonderful for me! I was an adoption return because I didn't get along with the other dog in the home, but my adopters had a lot of good things to say about me - I am crate trained, and I whine when I need to go outside to potty. I know sit, down and shake! My house manners may need some work as I am not always sure what I can chew on, and I will need slow on leash introductions to strangers that come in my home paired with yummy treats and lots of encouragement. I think working with a trainer would be a fun way for us to bond and learn together!

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, which also seems to be other dogs! At the shelter, the nice humans have noticed I perk up every time another pup is around. I might be a bit nervous with you at first, especially if you don't have another pet, so a home with a fur friend to welcome me would be best! While befriending your resident pup, we can discuss our favorite foods while you give us 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 - or at least on a pet bed by you and your companion! Please come meet me!

TOO MANY homeless out-of-state puppies coming into Portland

Wonder why the local county animal shelters are so overcrowded with great dogs who can't find homes?? If you're NOT wondering, you should be because it is now a crisis in this community.  Volunteers at MCAS are trying hard for these sweet animals but know we aren't doing enough; shelter staff are trying their best for the dogs but are  overwhelmed by the need, by the sheer numbers that coming into the shelter and not getting adopted.

The adoption market has become saturated, yet many homeless "lucky" puppies/young dogs continue to be brought into Oregon from shelters in Texas and California so they can can be "saved" by well- meaning people and rescue groups, Humane Societies.

The back-yard breeders in those states continue to breed for more puppies, and those owners don't spay/neuter - so it's never ending....MEANWHILE the homeless "unlucky" local adult dogs here are unable to find homes and  deteriorate in the county animal shelters, because they are older than...what,  1yr? 2 yrs? maybe 3yrs?

It stands to reason that if fewer homeless puppies, adolescents were transferred into Oregon for a quick adoption turn-around, then  more people looking to "adopt" a new dog would consider adopting a homeless ADULT shelter dog.There are really nice ones just waiting to meet you!!
