Brody
Sequim, WA

|
Are those ears cute or what? Brody has a charming personality to go with his cute ears. Chocolate Lab mix of some kind. He is about 2-3 years old & weighs around 50-60lbs (we feel like he might be kinda chubby right now). Playful & happy. He gets along well with other dogs & loves people. He is social & craves attention. He might be a good candidate for someone who can take their dog to work. Brody would be a great family dog. He needs to be a part of the family & he enjoys being active. Brody is currently in Texas but will be making his way to Washington state & the Sequim area soon. If you are interested in adopting this little gem please let us know. It would be great if he could go straight to his forever home.
Ginger
Portland, OR

Ginger is a gentle, loving 7 year old Australian Cattle dog, husky mix looking for a calm home, with a single person or adult couple who will be home the majority of the time.
Due to that fear based, protection/guarding issue, she will need a dog experienced adopter willing to help her feel safe.
Ginger is 68 lbs. spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, including rabies, heartworm negative and current on prevention.
- She is a very smart girl who picks up training and routines very quickly.
- Likes to be near her people all the time, like a shadow.
- When left alone, she will look for her person's shoe to bring near her for comfort - will not chew on or damage the shoe though.
- Enjoys daily walks and short hikes.
- Lower to medium energy girl, happy to lay and nap at your feet while you work on the computer, cuddle up with you to watch TV or hangout with you while gardening.
- Loves belly rubs and affection from her humans.
- Likes going to the beach and staying on the sand, but does not like any kind of water.
- She's not an incessant barker, but will bark at other dogs and unfamiliar people who come to the door.
- Sleeps through the night in her bed, your bed or her crate.
- Not at all destructive inside or outside, even when left alone for short periods of time.
- Ginger will only play with toys that you give her, especially her favorite blue octopus
- Dog selective and would be best as the only dog in your life. (lived in a foster home with non dominant male dogs her size)
- Cats are unknown, but not recommended.
- Walks well on leash, but will react by barking and pulling if she gets too close to other dogs. This has greatly reduced with focused training.
- Knows commands 'sit, stay, paw, leave it, come.
- Not a fan of strangers coming to the house or people stepping over her. So would be best if she was crated or put in another room when visitors come to the home.
- She has been very child friendly in her foster home, and loved to cuddle with the kids in bed or on the couch, but we are recommending a home without children.
- Due to several moves this last year, since her owner passed away, she has anxiety on long car rides. A doggie seat belt or riding in a crate in the back is best or she will try to join you in the driver's seat. She has shown improvement and we expect that to continue with more positive car ride experiences.
- She is very loyal and protective of her people.
Due to that fear based, protection/guarding issue, she will need a dog experienced adopter willing to help her feel safe.

Luna
Olympic Peninsula

Luna is a beautiful, 4 year old, 35-pound cattle dog/Aussie shepherd mix. She loves to play fetch with a ball as long as your arm holds out, and she loves all sorts of toys, although she will cheerfully disembowel stuffed animals. Luna is respectful of non-food human possessions in her foster home, but she has been known to steal and shred tissues and paper napkins. She is a dedicated counter surfer, always on the lookout for an unsupervised snack. She enjoys walks, but (like most dogs) could use additional training on her leash manners. Luna is house trained, but she doesn’t cue you when she needs to go, so regular potty breaks or a dog door is wise to prevent occasional accidents. She is crate trained and sleeps through the night quietly in her closed crate. She will rest easily in her crate with treats or stuffed Kong when you are away from home occasionally. However, we feel that Luna should not be left alone for long hours on a routine basis. Luna is a good burglar alarm and will bark to let you know someone is walking by the house.
Luna does not take easily to new people, new environments, or change in general. She is uncomfortable with noises and startles easily, and she doesn’t much care for being in the rain. She will require the patience and understanding of a savvy adopter who is experienced with fearful dogs. Her successful introduction to a new home will be slow and rely upon the experienced adopter allowing her space and time to acclimate on her own terms. Due to her fear reactions and prey drive, Luna will absolutely not be adopted into a home with children, cats, or small animals of any sort. Only calm, quiet homes with securely fenced yards will be considered. Luna currently lives with a very mellow male Aussie, and after a couple of awkward weeks getting used to and learning to trust him, Luna is now eager to play chase with her foster brother. She would not get along with a more dominant dog. Luna loves food. She takes treats softly, but she jealously guards her food bowl, so it is best that she is allowed to eat without interruptions.
Once Luna has settled into your home, she is a loving, playful girl who seeks pets and rubs and sweet talk. She will gently nibble at your hand or sleeve to get your attention, and she will be grateful for your love every day. If you have experience with fearful dogs and will open your heart and home to this lovely girl, she will be your faithful and loving companion for years to come.
Luna is located on the Olympic Peninsula. Her adoption fee is $350.

Golden is a happy boy, about 12 months old. We believe he is Lab & Shar Pei mix (notice his cute eyebrow wrinkles). He loves other dogs, cats and all people. Crate trained and potty trained. Loves to play and wants all the petting! He's just a pup so will require some training. He is neutered. Started his life living on a chain so looking for someone who wants to give this boy a new outlook on life. He'd love dog parks, car rides and lots of snuggles. Golden is in a foster home in the Sequim, WA area

Happy days are ahead for Fonzi. He weighs 46lbs & approximately 18 months old. We think he is maybe Aussie, Border Collie, maybe Australian Cattle Dog too. Fonzi is house trained & crate trained. He gets along especially well with female dogs. He is very intense and driven. Toy & food motivated. We are seeking a very active home or a sport home for him. No apartments & dog parks are not enough for this intelligent active guy. He is currently in a foster home in Sequim, WA.
