Story

Tucker is a 1 year old possible border collie mix. He is a bit bigger than a medium size dog, tall and lanky. I adopted Tucker about a week ago from a foster on Craigslist. Not much is known about his past but I was told he was surrendered from a family with health problems in Bend, OR. His Foster had him for a week, and had several small dogs and farm animals and he seemed to be doing fine. Him and I bonded immediately, he is a Velcro puppy who just wants to be with his person. I have a small dog in my house and two cats. He started to develop some jealousy whenever the other animals got attention, nipping and chasing them. He gets extremely reactive when he sees other people or dogs, and I physically don’t have the strength to hold him back. He is so smart and sweet, but I had to make the hard decision to let him go. He would do well in a home where he can be the center of attention, and work with someone 1:1 with either land or a large well fenced in backyard.

Story

I am single with Pennie and her brother (littermate.) She needs her own person to be at her happiest. They bully each other over me. Because of where I live and her reactivity to cats (barking and chasing,) as well as people and dogs walking by I am forced to find her a new family. I think this is her herding instinct. She needs a quiet neighborhood or more country setting. She is a sweetheart and wants to please. She can be full of energy but can also chill when it is time. She is crate trained and housetrained and needs to be in with her person or people. She is 3 1/2. Her mom is a border collie and dad black standard poodle. Her favorite thing is to jump up to catch a ball, she must jump and catches it 99% of the time

Story

Alder is an extremely sweet, quiet, shy boy. He is the dog version of an introvert. He is gentle and sticks to himself and is great with other dogs of all sizes and with cats. He doesn't engage much with them thought as he prefers to do his own thing. He has to be the most low maintenance and chill dog I've ever had in the rescue out of hundreds of dogs. He is hesitant with people he doesn't know but never aggressive. Not an ounce of aggression. He was listed as a pit bull mix at the shelter when he was smaller and still a younger puppy but now that he is an older puppy (about a year) it's obvious that he is not a pittie but looks more like a border collie. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue/reviews (copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tumwater, Tacoma, Tukwila, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Michigan (St Joseph, Battle Creek, Ann Arbor) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) - New Jersey (Bedminster) - Nevada (Las Vegas) - Arizona (Flagstaff) Vetting: neutered, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative) Adoption fee: $550 (includes the $250 cost of transport from Oklahoma and all vetting listed above) Adoption application (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://form.jotform.com/82677586784176 FAQs (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://docs.google.com/document/d/12eb_SRtk1AzaBl87UltcLJ24MjH9UhQm_LE77iWZEQA/edit?tab=t.0 Desiderata Rescue is Oklahoma Licensed Rescue #95
