Blossom's Puppies
Portland, OR
|
|
Blossom's puppies are ready for their new forever homes. There are three females left. They are all funny, unflappable, and feisty. They spend their time playing bitey face, chase, snacking on rose bushes, napping, eating, snuggling, tug, attacking the agility tunnel, climbing on the ramp and jungle gym, and running. They love, love, love people. They love the children they've met too. They are interested in the resident dogs but have not met them up close. They are at the point in puppyhood where they have very sharp teeth and nails, just a warning.
The puppies were born on November 3, 2022. They have been wormed, first vaccines, and micro-chipped. They will need two more sets of vaccines in the next 8 weeks. They are pretty good about using the dog door to go outside to poo but they're only 9 weeks old so will need lots of training for some time to become reliable. They weigh between 10-15 pounds.
We will be looking for homes who have a plan for potty training, puppy kindergarten, and continued learning. A work from home or some type of schedule that does not leave the puppy alone for longer than a few hours will be the best for them for several months. Puppies need to go outside several times a day and night so apartment homes or similar clustered living situations are not ideal unless the adopter commits to losing a lot of sleep for a while. A puppy is a lifetime commitment of up to 15 years or more and we want to make sure these babies go to their forever homes.
We think the puppies' mother, Blossom, is a Catahoula/Heeler mix, perhaps some other hound breed as well. She is not barky at all and weighs about 42 pounds. We have no idea who dad was although the three black puppies appear to be Border Collie/Heeler/Labrador mix. Our guess is as good as yours what the rest of them are.
If you are interested in adopting one of the puppies please fill out our application on our website at: https://www.westernaustralianshepherdrescue.com/adoption-application.html. We only schedule meet n greets with a completed application that includes reference checks and a home visit.
The puppies are located in Portland, OR.

Gaia
Estacada, OR

Meet Gaia, a gorgeous, active Belgian Malinois/Shepherd girl looking for a new home where she can run, play, cuddle, and snuggle. Her favorite things are tug, dragging kelp around, playing with toys upside down, hide and seek in the beach grass, and napping in a blankie. She is described as an "enthusiastic" cuddler!
Gaia is friendly with other dogs but being so young and active she needs doggy companions who have her same play style. She is somewhat cautious of strangers and children so we are looking for a home with no young children or cats.
Giaia is house trained and knows some basic tricks: come, sit, down, off, out of kitchen, stay, and wait. She walks well on a leash but is easily distracted and can get over-excited. She will need consistent, positive training to continue her progress towards being a good girl.
She doesn't mind her baths or having her nails clipped. Gaia is up to date on her vacines, micro-chipped, and spayed. She is 19 months old and weighs about 50 pounds.
If you are interested in adding Gaia to your family, you may fill out our application on our website at: https://www.westernaustralianshepherdrescue.com/adoption-application.html. We only schedule meet n greets with a completed application that includes reference checks and a home visit.

Zeke
Estacada, OR

This is Zeke.
Zeke is the product of a smart dog who has gotten no stimulation at the critical points of development as a puppy. Basically, this means that he’s just really scared. He has been living in a loving and skilled foster home who is committed to his success. He is looking for a permanent home where he can continue to learn, to become braver every day, and to someday figure out that people are great and that being loved is the biggest gift a dog can get.
This means he will need a patient home that won’t push him too hard, or expect too much, and that can recognize his signs of stress and react accordingly. The good news is that he’s highly food motivated, he uses potty pads like a champ, and he really enjoys the company of other dogs. He’s showing steady progress in his foster home and making huge strides daily. Zeke is guaranteed to be a bit of a project, but his willingness and sweet nature is promising.
He would do best in a quiet, child-free home with another dog social dog to mentor him. He will need a skilled owner that is willing to be patient and accept regression from time-to-time.
Zeke is about 20 pounds, mixed breed. He is currently being fostered in Estacada, Oregon. Transport may be arranged to the right home.

This unusual looking boi dog is Rubble, a Catahoula/Australian heeler mix with a little something with funny ears thrown in. Rubble is a total sweetheart. He loves pets and attention and gets along well with all of his roomies. He would be great with dogs his size or bigger and does prefer his female dog friends.
Rubble is a happy-go-lucky, go with the flow kind of guy. He walks well on a leash, loves chewy bones, and takes treats nicely. No shark mouth here! He loves to roll in the grass and enjoys a good spray with the water hose. He's great indoors too, settling down for naps and snuggles when needed.
Rubble is house trained and uses a dog door. He weighs about 40-45 pounds and is about 3-years old. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and micro-chipped.
