Born Again Pit Bull Rescue regularly works with the wonderful people at the Del Norte County Animal Control located out in rural Crescent City, CA (a tiny coastal city on the OR/CA border). They have a very small shelter with small indoor 3x6 kennel runs, low foot traffic, odd adoption viewing hours and it rains a lot which means the dogs can’t come outside and play.
We want you to see some really great dogs that they have in their care--it's just a 5-hour drive from Portland to adopt your new BFF! *Please note that occasionally there are volunteers who can assist with transporting the dog from the shelter to Grants Pass/Eugene/Salem/Portland *
Del Norte County Animal Control is located in Crescent City, CA. They are open Monday – Friday from 8am to 5pm. They are closed Saturday and Sunday.
Address: 2650 Washington Blvd - Crescent City, CA 95531
Shelter phone: (707) 464-7235

World Meet Heather!
Heather loves to be the center of attention—can you make her your star?
This beautiful brindle girl appears to be about 4 years old, about 75 pounds, and is full of sweet affections to shower on her people.
Heather is a mature, but active, just-plain-easy girl, looking for her forever family. This exceptionally nice gal hasn’t had the best luck in life—she’s been stuck at the rural Del Norte County Shelter in Crescent City, CA (on the OR/CA coast border). Where there is low foot traffic and odd adoption viewing hours, which has kept Heather waiting at the shelter for over 12 months (356 days!!!) for her perfect person to come and take her home.
Heather has a great personality, full of life, silly and always in a good mood – she’d make your morning coffee if she had opposable thumbs. Heather comes with some other great attributes too -- She will do anything for a treat, so she will love to continue her training education—she thinks learning is fun and delicious!
Heather loves the great outdoors – daily walks are her favorite thing to do while passing time at the shelter and would love to be someone’s exercise partner. Love to hike? Funny--so does Heather! She also loves her ball and would be easily satisfied with some ball chasing/fetching. Afterward, she’d love nothing better than to snuggle with her people and rest up. She’s of medium energy level so she’s pretty mellow after her daily exercise.
Heather is fun and people-oriented, has had her initial vaccines and is spayed. Because of her size and playfulness (adult only home, please – she’s a bit too excitable for young kids).
Heather is mainly disinterested in other dogs, but we feel she’ll do best in a home with no other dogs or cats to be set up for success. Interested in making Heather your doggie daughter? If you would like to become Heather’s forever family to show her all the fun things in life, and take away all her worries, we want to hear from you!
