Meet our four newest foster puppies who are as cute and funny as the Puppy Bowl puppies but even better, because you can adopt them right now and have one in your home asap!
First is the oh so lovely Panda, a flirty baby girl dog. Panda is a little timid but she's had a whirlwind of change in her young life so that is to be expected. She loves people and her little kisses and licks to get your attention are adorable.
Next we have Maggie, a gorgeous, golden-eyed blonde girl. From her white-tipped tail to her little masked face, this is one elegant puppy! She's relatively calm and plays well with others, not too loud or pushy or timid.
Why Pork Chop? We're not really sure but the name fits for some reason. He's a confident, solid little boy, outgoing and friendly as all get out. He is quite talkative, always telling you what you could and should be doing for him. Mostly that is giving him treats and lap-time and pettings and so on.
And finally, Randy. He's long and lean, a handsome ruddy blonde baby boy with dark eyes and a devil may care attitude. He likes to rough house with his brother and sisters but isn't over the top in his play behavior.
These puppies are fostered in Portland, OR. They are about 10 weeks old and have had their first vaccines and deworming. They also had a bath so are squeaky clean and smell like puppy.
The puppies were rescued, along with their Great Pyrenees mother, by a concerned couple in Oklahoma. The family contacted Western Australian Shepherd Rescue to help with finding forever homes for the puppies. And so, the four babies found their way to the Pacific NW to bring joy, laughter, and love to the lucky folks who adopt them!
We are still learning about them and will update as we know more about their personalities.
If you are interested in adopting one of our puppies, please fill out the application on our website at: https://www.westernaustralianshepherdrescue.com/adoption-application.html.
We schedule meet n greets after a completed application which includes a home visit and reference checks.

Storm
Portland, OR
|
|
|
|
|
Storm is a 3.5 yr old German Shepherd. She is on the smaller/leaner side weighing in at 58 lbs. Storm is a smart athletic, active girl. Because of her prey drive, a home with no small animals (no cats, no small dogs) would be best. She loves her humans and will follow you everywhere. She walks nicely on a leash. She is kennel trained, house trained and comes when called. If you live in an area with fleas, Storm will need to be on flea preventative because she has an allergy to flea saliva. She can be shy when meeting new people and dogs but with safe proper introductions she will come around. She gets along with other dogs her size very well and loves to play. She would do best in a home with a big fenced yard or acreage where she can run. She does love a game of fetch. An experienced owner who would be interested in hiking with her, doing some dog sports, even just for fun, would be a great match. Storm is spayed, current on vaccinations and ready for her next adventures.
Storm is located near Portland, OR.
If you are interested in adopting Storm, please fill out the application on our website at: https://www.westernaustralianshepherdrescue.com/adoption-application.html.
We only schedule meet n greets after a completed application which includes a home visit and reference checks.

Byrd
Adopted!
Port Angeles, WA
Grace the Anatolian
Western Washington State
|
|
|
|
|
|
Grace has definitely had an AMAZING transformation. Anatolian Shepherds are known for their caretaking ability and Grace is no exception. She had obviously escaped a life of extreme neglect and was intuitive enough to approach an Animal Resource officer for help after finding herself alone, starving, and feeling defeated. She was just a skeleton when that sweet resource officer collected her up and brought her to safety. Grace was exhausted, having apparently been used for breeding, she had not been provided the care or nutrition she needed for herself, let alone to raise babies.
It has taken some time for Grace to adjust to life in the bustling suburb of Seattle after escaping her death sentence in a rural Oklahoma shelter, but she has blossomed in the care of her foster family. She has learned to enjoy chew treats, play time with her canine foster siblings, participation in outings and adventures, and expanding her friend group to include people of all ages.
Grace has a gentle spirit and an old soul. Now that she’s a fit 71#, she has gained some spunk, and her goofy antics will entertain her forever family. She is very much a velcro dog, never wandering far from her people, so getting good pictures has been a bit challenging.
Grace still has some hesitation when it comes to staircases and chaotic city activity, but she is getting braver with each new experience. She has discovered she loves car rides, beach excursions, and family/pack walks on forest trails. She loves dogs of all sizes and is very tolerant of puppy shenanigans.
We think Grace is between 4-6 years old, house trained, crate trained, quiet, and well mannered. She would love a quiet home with a family who enjoys being outside, but also spends evenings cuddled up on the couch. She is used to being left home for a few hours in her crate if need be.
If you’re thinking you might be the right match for Grace, please fill out our application. She’s currently in the Seattle area but we do have volunteers who are willing to drive Grace to her forever home anywhere within the PNW region.

Eden
Bend, OR
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here she is, just what you've been looking for, a smol German Shepherd dog, easy to pick up, load into the car, take on walks, fits in your household nicely not taking up too much space. Her name is Eden and she's looking to impress you with her smarts, friendliness, and all-around good dog personality.
Eden is about 18 months old. She weighs only 45-pounds. She is spayed, up to date on her vaccines, is micro-chipped, and has been dewormed. She is house- and crate-trained, but she has great house manners so doesn't need to be crated. She is not a chewer or digger so you don't have to worry about holes in your home or yard.
Eden is a medium energy girl. She enjoys belly rubs and other petting situations. She loves hanging out with her humans, sunbathing while you garden, accompanying you on errands, cuddling to watch movies, providing feet warmth while you work on your computer. She walks well on leash and could easily learn to be off leash with her people. Eden thinks she'd make a great hiking partner because she is young, calm for her age, and the perfect size to fit next to you on trails.
Other things Eden wants you to know about her. She is pretty quiet, not a big barker. She sleeps perfectly through the night on her own bed. She is an amazing passenger in the car, just lays down and enjoys the ride, hopefully to a place where she can get a pup-a-chino. She's very intelligent, knows basic commands and picks up on routines quickly.
Eden is very dog friendly and would love a home with another dog to play with. We don't recommend cats because she is very interested in the bunnies on her walks. She has a super sweet personality and should be great with kids. We do recommend kids over 6-8 years old because she can get very excited and does jump up to greet.
Eden's best home would be one where she is an included family member, with a yard to explore, tricks to learn, and lots of walks and adventures. Won't you be the one to give this lovely girl her forever home?

Luke
Vancouver, WA
|

This super-sized cattle dog is Luke. He is big and bold and has a cattle dog temperament—loving to his best friends, wary of others. This fellow looks imposing (and is) but he is a giant marshmallow underneath. He likes belly rubs, butt scratches, and chase games. When he is outside, Luke is quick to play-bow to invite you to join him in a game. Since he is a cattle dog, he will choose the game.
Luke has excellent house manners and knows basic commands. He automatically offers a sit and a paw shake at mealtime. He is about 5 years old, neutered, fully vaccinated and on flea/tick/heartworm preventative.
When you pick up his collar, harness and leash, Luke lets you know he is excited and happy to go with you. He loves car rides and walks. His leash manners are a bit rough, and his foster home is working on that. Luke has a couple of basic obedience courses under his belt and likes to train and learn new things.
He loves his people and likes to sit next to you on the couch in the evening (or on your lap if you allow), likes to sit on the floor next to your feet (or on them) as you work on your laptop. His favorite thing is to follow you everywhere, and we do mean everywhere.
Luke does not always like to meet new people but warms up quickly with a few treats and some patience. He gets along well with the female dog in his foster home. He tolerates the unneutered male dog in his foster home as well. We do not know how he would tolerate cats.
The best home for Luke will have a fenced yard—but it does not have to be a big one. An all-adult home is best for him; he shows a preference for women. With continuing positive reinforcement training, Luke will learn that new people are good to meet. But he is always going to be a bit guardy—alerting you to surprise visitors and delivery vans. He will always be your best friend and your loyal champion.
Adoption preference will be given to families and individuals with experience with cattle dogs and heelers. Luke is located in Vancouver, WA.
