My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet lovely 3-year-old Kona! Kona is a lovely shepherd mix who needs a new forever home. Beautiful Kona weighs 75lbs and great with both kids and people alike. She is great in the house, very easy going and super affectionate. Kona is currently in a home with kids 6 and older and she loves them, but since she is a big girl we think young children might get knocked down by her energy. Kona loves and approaches everyone she meets- even strangers. She digs affection and loves to be the center of the attention. She wants to be where her people are! Kona is a medium energy girl who loves to play ball and tug of war. Kona plays gently and does not require a lot of physical exertion. She would love an occasional walk too. Kona walks politely on a leash but does need occasional help with her leash reactivity. Kona knows her basic commands: sit, lay down and is working on stay and leave it. She has no aggression to food or toys. Kona loves to be right next to you and is a true “Velcro” dog. She loves to lay on her back and she gets so excited that her entire body wiggles! Kona would love to be the center of your world! Kona is spayed and vaccinated and house trained. To meet Kona, please email her current owner Ashley at missaks14@gmail.com or phone her at 206-596-1764.

Additional adoption info

For our dogs, our process starts first with an adoption application. Our dog adoption application includes references, vet info, home photos and proof of home ownership or landlord contact. Our requirements vary per dog, but we look closely at activity level, yard, time away, previous pets, current pets etc.. During that time they may also have a home visit or long conversation (depending upon the situation of the dog, if warranted) with one of our professional trainers. We deliver the dogs with their quality food, treats, all vet records, training material, resources,etc. We encourage and often require additional training. We keep in communication with our fosters and adopters. We try to do the most to set everyone up to succeed. We are upfront about their commitment, training & responsibilities Adoption fees for our dogs and puppies range from $200 - $600 Great people are certainly out there for our dogs because we are having very good success. The cat adoption process is similar but not as involved. We have a shortened application process. At any time the animal can be returned to us if it doesn't work out. The adoption fees cover a portion of the expenses in spay/neuter, vet care, foster care and boarding for some dogs.

Go meet their pets

Our dogs are in foster care in Georgia and Western Washington while we vet, spay, neuter and get to know them. We do regular transports of dogs and puppies rescued from high kill shelters in Georgia. Please go to www.raincityrescue for more info and adoption application. We look forward to meeting you and finding a perfect match for your family.

More about this rescue

We are a small group of animal lovers who couldn’t “click off” email pleas any longer . We just started saying YES to dogs in need. We are not breed specific, but do love our Pits and Pit mixes who are always the last in the shelters and first in our hearts. We have connected with great trainers, super adopters, the best transporters and people within the rescue community to build a strong network to help these animals. But we are “DOING IT” and “LOVING IT”. Unlike others, we just jumped in and later decided to talk about it!! Keeping our "heads in the sand" did not work for this group of amazing "can-do" women.
