If you see pets listed by a private owner, it means that they’re adoptable through Adopt a Pet’s Rehome program – the safe and reliable way to find a loving new home for your pet.
I believe Irwin would do best in a quiet home with at least 2 people, at least one who works at home, and ideally, another dog. I love him, but cannot give him what he needs and am willing to rehome him for him to thrive.
Irwin presents with extreme separation anxiety. He runs out of the apartment when I try to leave. As a temporary measure I have to take him to stay with a friend who works from home so I can go to work or on errands. Medication does not seem to be helping enough.
I adopted Irwin from the Multnomah County Animal Shelter on November 8, 2025. He was found abandoned in a trailer with 5 other dogs after a neighbor called the cops.
Irwin is playful and a snuggler who thinks he is a lapdog. He has some anxiety around meeting new people when on leash and seems more comfortable and quicker to warm up to new people off leash especially if the go slowly and have treats.
He loves other dogs and will play chase and also wrestle. He does not appear to guard resources.
