"SHADRIC" strong smart Pitmix

ADOPTED!
Oct 2017
Available for Adoption with Multnomah County Animal Services!

Mcas weblink 
(10/11 has an adopter)
My name is Shadric. I love to play with toys, and could play fetch for hours with my new friends! I know sit, down, and shake. I could use some more training in helping contain my excitement when meeting new people, as I sometimes jump up and forget my manners. I am a big love bug who sometimes thinks I can fit on your lap, but it is just because I have a lot of love to give! The shelter is recommending I be the only animal in my new home, and any potential little kids be over 6 years old. Please come say hello and take me out for a big game of fetch-I will be here at the shelter waiting!

"FERN" SENIOR! Aussie mix - relaxing retirement home

ADOPTED!
Sept 2017 


Available for Adoption with Multnomah County Animal Services!

mcas weblink

Hi there! My name is Fern and I'm looking for a relaxing home to spend my golden years in. I am a spry girl, despite my age, and enjoy going for daily walks. I am social, adore people, and have some tricks up my sleeve. I came to the shelter with a skin allergy and ear infections. The shelter has treated me for the infections, but the cause of my skin allergies are still unknown. It could be fleas, food, or something in the environment. It will be important for my new family to connect with their Veterinarian quickly to get me started on treatment. I may also be developing arthritis, so they can check that at the same time. My new family should also know that my previous home indicated that I have started to become incontinent. The shelter has started me on medication for this. I am a fabulous girl that's looking for someone special and I hope that's you! Please come and meet me today! I am about 13 years old and weigh a thin 50 pounds.

"LANNISTER" mature German Shepherd wants love

ADOPTED!
Oct 2017
Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

here's my Mcas weblink

My name is Lannister and I am really happiest being where my people are. I would love nothing more than the curl up next to you by the fire or trot along with you on walks. If you are seeking a relaxed and easy-going friend to keep you company through your life, then I am the dog for you! Through thick and thin, I will be by your side. I really enjoy playing with toys, but sometimes I can take them a little hard, so kids in the home will need to be 8 years or older. I am about 10 years old and weigh 78 pounds.



"LEROY" sweetheart Lab/pit mix puppy

ADOPTED!

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

here's my Mcas weblink


My name is Leroy and I am a fun loving and energetic puppy. Dogs like me love to get out and play but are not always sure what to do with our mouths. I can tend to get so excited I jump for the first thing I see, and the game is on! 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 have shown some food guarding in the shelter, so if you have kids in the home, they will need to be over the age of 12 years. At 3 months old, I am ready and eager to learn! Please come and meet me today!

ADOPTED!
Oct 2017
Available for Adoption with Multnomah County Animal Services!

Mcas weblink 

My name is Buford and I'm ready to find a new family! I can take a minute to warm up to new people, but once you build my trust, I am the silliest boy! I love to play and go exploring. An active home would be best for me. I have met some other dogs here at the shelter and am a little rough in play. I could live with another if it was the right match, but could be selective on my friends. If you think we could make a team, come out and meet me! I am about 2 years old and weigh 62 pounds.

"VINNIE" and "SAM" bonded weimaraner siblings - OWR


 ADOPTED!
Oct 2017 

"We are so lucky to have them. They are the sweetest boys!"
 
Available for Adoption with Oregon Weimaraner Rescue!

V and S FOSTER home noted: "As far as weims go, these two are incredibly low maintenance. They want attention when they want it but do just fine being left for short stretches as well. Vinnie and Sam will make someone very very happy."


 Vinnie and Sam's  Oregon Weimaraner Rescue weblink
10/14 adoption pending

Vinnie and Sam are two purebred, neutered, 5 year old brothers looking for a new and loving home together after their previous owner passed away some weeks back. The boys are current on rabies/DHPP and have no known health concerns aside from continuing their weight loss regimen. Vinnie and Sam are both wonderful footwarmers who love to be at or near your side and respond well to basic commands. Neither is particularly fond of fetch, preferring instead to explore about together within eye/earshot of their person.


These two are wonderful loves who require a soft touch and a welcoming pack (of people and dogs) to accept them. We do not have an extensive history on them (aside from vet records) but what we have learned in their 4 weeks of fostering is all positive with no negative experiences to report.


If you are interested in being considered to adopt these boys, please submit an application below (or email us if you have previously submitted an online application)


PHOTOS: Vinnie has the blue scarf. The tennis ball photo was a "throw the ball to him, he catches it and immediately drops it before wandering off" :)
Children: Sturdy

Cats: Unknown (must bring to meet)

Dogs: Yes

"LUCY" cattle dog mix

ADOPTED!
Oct 2017
happy adoption update:
"Lucy came home with us and immediately took up residence as the ball-fetcher-in-chief. She is still a bit shy, but has been a wonderful companion on hikes, walks, and trips to the dog park. She gets along great with all of our friends' dogs, gets along great with kids, and always has her squeaky steak toy nearby (seen here under paw). Thank you so much for introducing us to Lucy! She has been a wonderful addition to our family."

I am really happiest being where my people are. I would love nothing more than the curl up on your lap or trot along with you on walks.

I can be very shy with new people at first, but with patience and time my personality and confidence should grow in my new home!  1 1/2 yrs, 46lbs

"BANJO" nice grey Pitbull


ADOPTED!
Oct 2017
Available for Adoption with Multnomah County Animal Services!

Mcas weblink

How handsome I am! Dogs like me tend to really enjoy meeting new people. Most of the time I am confident and curious, and I love to play with toys! I would be a good fit for a family, with any potential kids over the age of 6 years old, who will build a trusting bond with me and we can learn together. Introductions to new dogs needs to be practiced and gradual as I have had some recent rough interactions with other dogs and may not be very trusting of them at the moment. Please come down to the shelter and ask about me today!  2 yrs, 70 lbs

If you are seeking a relaxed and easy-going friend to keep you company through your life, then I am the dog for you! Through thick and thin, I will be by your side.
