Story
BEST WAY TO INQUIRE, EMAIL CONTACT@BAMMRESCUEPDX.ORG Montana is an affectionate 4-year-old Lab/Pit mix who’s ready to be your loyal companion for life. This sweet girl is a fetch fanatic who lives for playtime and loves nothing more than chasing balls with her favorite humans. She’s both treat and toy motivated and ready to learn new tricks. Montana gets along fine with other dogs, but she’s truly a people-focused pup who wants to be your number-one play partner. On a recent Doggie Day Out adventure, she proved to be a calm car passenger and a wonderful trail companion. She enjoys sniffy walks and likes to lead the way without pulling on the leash. Though Montana can be a little shy when meeting new people, she warms up quickly with patience (and a few tasty treats). Once she feels comfortable, she enjoys gentle petting and cuddle time with her friends. If you can toss a tennis ball, you’re already in her inner circle! Montana was placed on final because shelter life has become overwhelming for her. Repeated encounters with unfamiliar people reaching into her kennel have left her feeling uneasy, and she may growl or show her teeth to ask for space. But outside the kennel, Montana’s true personality shines—sweet, playful, and full of love. Montana will thrive in a calm, patient home that gives her time to decompress and build trus ##2599337##

Chopper is a little over 2 years old, with a birthdate of 1/9/2024. We were given by someone when he was 6 months old. We are looking for experienced pet owners to take him in. He has anxiety issues and resource guards his owners. He has bitten someone once and is not friendly to others due to anxiety. He gets along with our other dog in the house, but not with strangers. He is very affectionate and friendly to his owners. He loves to get pets and scratches. He is food-motivated and likes to cuddle.Please call or text me at 408-507-2807 if you're interested

Story
Zoey is an enthusiastically friendly four year old medium sized dog who is likely some kind of terrier mix. She's not shy at all with new people and is very energetic- she doesn't necessarily need someone very experienced with dogs but does need someone who can regularly exercise her more strenuously than simple walks. She seems to understand the concept of fetch and loves playing with toys. She gets along with the two dogs she currently lives with but it is unknown how well she would interact with cats. She's very cuddly and loves attention! Her human passed away and had no known relatives so she needs a new forever home. She's very attentive to the humans around her and seems to be constantly looking for a job to do so she would probably do well with agility training or as a running buddy or farm/ranch companion. We are helping Zoey's current guardian to rehome her. Please fill out our online application and we will forward to them. Adoption fee would be minimum $100 donation to Furry Friends Rescue. If you have specific questions please send them through and we will put you in touch with her current guardian.August 24, 2026, 12:28 am

Story
Meet Nell! Fostered near the coastal Santa Cruz Mountains in California Nell is a 6-month-old female Border Collie being fostered in Central California. They truly don’t come much sweeter than this beautiful girl. Nell came to us from a rural shelter extremely timid and fearful. In just one month, she has made incredible progress. She adores her foster brothers and sisters, is becoming more comfortable meeting new people, and now happily follows her foster dad everywhere. Like most Border Collies, Nell is brilliant, active, and a very fast learner. She would make an excellent hiking companion, but walks alone will not be enough for her. Nell needs a job, purpose, structured training, or another productive outlet for her intelligence and energy. Nell has had some exposure to sheep and appears interested, although she is still young and it is too early to know whether she will become a working stock dog. With the right training, she may have potential, but no guarantees can be made. Nell’s ideal home will include: An experienced handler familiar with high-drive herding breeds Patience as she adjusts to new people and situations A commitment to continued training and confidence-building A securely fenced yard No apartments or high-density housing Another playful, confident dog would be a wonderful bonus. Nell is very dog-social, bonds well with other dogs, and plays and shares toys beautifully. Nell is not a “turnkey” dog. Although she is thriving in foster care, she may temporarily regress when moving into a new home. Her adopter must be willing to take things slowly and allow her time to feel safe. She is house trained, travels well, walks fairly nicely on leash, and has started learning sit, stay, and down. She is also partially crate trained. Nell is up to date on vaccines and will be adopted with a spay contract. This special girl has so much potential and deserves an experienced, active family who will help her become the incredible dog she is meant to be. If you think Nell  is the gal for you ,  please submit our adoption application at the link below! https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There are some additional fees: $20 microchip transfer fee to register and transfer her to her new furever family.  A $50 REFUNDABLE neuter deposit which will be refunded upon proof of Spay,. ##2748974##

Story
BEST WAY TO INQUIRE, EMAIL Adoptions@BAMMRESCUEPDX.ORG 2 yr old tricolor M/N Kelpie/GSD mix Looking for a dogs dog?? Gunner is your guy! He was comfortable enough around me, allowed touch, took treats, interacted some with me, but he really really wanted to play with the big dog in the next yard. He wasn't aloof though! Took treats gently, eager to please and loved being called a good boi, it was a fun yard time for both us us He does seem to be feeling the stress from the shelter, some have had some trouble getting him out of his kennel but he was perfectly behaved for me. This is an active breed, he will need consistent physical and mental exercise to be happy, it is likely what is causing his current stress and occasional barrier reactivity. It is worth noting that he was a very loud bork monster when I first approached his kennel but after 3 treats he was ready to follow me anywhere I was going Knows how to sit, walks well on the leash (just a tiny bit of pulling) and seemed potty trained!! ##2528145##

BEST WAY TO INQUIRE, EMAIL CONTACT@BAMMRESCUEPDX.ORG From his foster: “Ralphie – Your Adventure Co-Star1 year old | 48 lbs | Australian Shepherd MixRalphie is the kind of dog who forms deep bonds and wants to truly be part of your life. He’s intelligent, expressive, and athletic — a classic working-breed mix who thrives when he has structure, purpose, and connection.At one year old, and still figuring out the world, he can be sensitive in new situations and has shown some fear-based reactivity in the past. The good news? With structure and training, he has been making wonderful progress and building confidence every single day. He is looking for experienced, steady leadership to help him continue that upward trajectory.He would do best in:• An adult-only home (no young children)• An active household that enjoys walks, hikes, and enrichment• A secure yard (he’s athletic and curious!)• A home with breed experience and commitment to continued training    ##2622392##

**About Bubu:** Thank you for interested in adopting Bubu. Please know that Bubu is an international rescue through Taiwan. When your application is approved, you will need to pick her up from the airport - such as SFO, SEA, JFK, LAX, IAH, YVR, etc. International adoption is not a complicated process and we‘ve done the process many years. We would be happy to explain to you how the process works. Meet Bubu: A Gentle Soul Looking for Her Forever Best Friend Bubu once had a home, but she was sadly abandoned simply because she grew "too big." Despite this heartbreak, Bubu remains a vibrant, confident, and well-mannered girl who holds no grudges—only love! Why you’ll fall in love with Bubu: Social Superstar: She gets along wonderfully with other dogs of all sizes, cats, and children. Household Manners: She is house-trained and prefers going outside, but she’s also smart enough to use pee pads indoors if needed. The Perfect Walking Partner: She walks beautifully on a leash, though she does get a little "puppy-excited" when she sees a bird or squirrel to chase! Quiet & Friendly: She rarely barks and currently lives peacefully in a foster home with six dogs and two cats. A few quirks: Bubu is a "free spirit" who doesn't like being confined by playpens or fences—she’s quite the jumper! Because of this, we focus on crate training instead. Occasionally, if left alone, she might find a pen or a small box on the table to chew on, so she’d love a home that provides plenty of toys. Bubu is ready to find a family that will cherish her for the rest of her life. If you have room in your heart and home for this amazing girl, please contact us today!
