Story

WE ARE A TX BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Ernest - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! Ernest Goes To Jail, yes, to my embarrassment and dismay, I was found as a stray and spent some time in the doggie slammer. It seemed like forever!! But thanks to this rescue I got out on good behavior and am ready for that freedom ride! Yes, Ernest Rides Again!!! I'm just hoping your home is my last ride!! I have been working on the whole house and crate training thing and have got it down. I may have spent most of my life outside but I've caught on quickly. I coming to see that this whole living inside with a soft bed and a warm lap to lay on is pretty darn nice!! I would do best in a quiet adult only home. I'm needing my space but will come seeking companionship when I want it. Kinda like a cat in that sense. I do well with other dogs but would prefer a more mellow sibling that isn't too bouncy and constantly in my space. At 9 years and only 11lbs I would make a great family addition for someone that is looking for a great lil guy to chill with them. I'm already out of that destructive stage but still enjoy neighborhood strolls and catching some rays in the backyard. If you're looking for that needy pup that is always under foot seeking you attention, I'm not your boy. But if you want an independent lil guy that is just happy being in the same room, I might just be that lil man!! I would love to be your lil side kick....so what do ya say? Can I come home with you?!!

Story

We will be reviewing adoption applications for Hap on April 22nd. Animal Profile:  Hap is an approximately ~14lb,  3-year-old neutered male Chihuahua mix that joined us from CA on 12/17.  He was found as a stray and was very scared but he warmed up quickly. He's been kenneled with other dogs. Foster Update: Hap is settling in well and is such a sweetheart. He really just wants to be your best friend. True to his breed mix, Hap bonds hard with his people and wants to be by your side. He is being fostered with another dog in his foster home, and they got along great. Hap has a fairly mellow temperament inside the home. He really enjoys snuggling up, lounging in a cozy dog bed, and hanging out by your side. He is getting much better with his crate manners when home alone, and he will enjoy a kong during his down time in his crate. As a pup who builds a strong bond with his people, Hap really relies on clear leadership and confidence from his humans. He can be a bit insecure/nervous by nature, and having his humans take the lead really helps him feel more relaxed and confident outside of the home. Hap's foster mom has been working hard at teaching Hap a proper heel on leash, place command, in addition to basic obedience. He is absolutely thriving! Hap has even found himself to be an excellent jogging/running partner. Hap would love a forever home that can continue to provide the leadership for him to thrive. He will need to be in an adult-only home, and he would do best with someone who has some past dog experience, or is confident to be able to keep up his training and advocate for his needs. He is such a loving companion that is eager to learn and be your best friend. He is going to make someone extremely happy! Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $550 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations per AVMA standards, heartworm test if applicable, microchip with registration, and health certificate. Your adoption fee may be tax deductible as DGS is a 501c3 organization. All adoption fees go toward the care of all dogs in our rescue.  Apply Online: www.DogGoneSeattle.org/adoption-application Animal History: This dog was rescued from the Fresno Humane.  They arrive on 12/17 and will be available for adoption in the greater Seattle area once evaluated in foster care.April 25, 2024, 3:13 pm

Story

Animal Profile:  Gully is an estimated 3-year-old 12 lb black and white female chihuahua joining us from Fresno Animal Care Center. She was found as a stray and held by the finder for a few days looking for an owner but no one came. She was assessed to be shy but friendly with people and dogs.  Foster Update: Meet Gully! This special girl is excited to find her forever home. Full of spunk and energy, this girl won't leave you bored. She will gladly engage in a game of tug and chase, and she will go for hours if you let her =) With her zest for life, comes an eagerness to learn. Gully loves nothing more than clear direction from her human, as she is eager to learn her expectations and excel at her tasks (then get rewarded for it). She has been learning leash manners when out and about, and has learned the place command when at home. Gully is looking for a forever home that can continue to expand her basic obedience and help her build confidence in the outside world through leadership. Having a confident handler on leash has helped transform Gully from being fearful and reacting to passing dogs, to being able to pass them calmly and with confidence. Her forever human will need to feel comfortable to continue to advocate for her and keep up on her leash manners. Gully does amazing in her crate and sleeps through the night soundly, as well as for spurts of time throughout the day. High-value chews are one of her favorite rewards, and she has become quite fond of antler ears or yak chews. She is making progress with her potty training; she will take care of business anytime she is out on a walk, but we are still working on learning her signals on when she needs to go out. A consistent routine will help immensely for keeping up the progress with her potty training. Gully has been fostered with another small dog, and she engages in play often. Her play style can be a bit more dominant. Gully would enjoy a canine companion that compliments her energy and play style, but she wouldn't mind being the only dog either.  Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $550 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations per AVMA standards, heartworm test if applicable, microchip with registration, and health certificate. Your adoption fee may be tax deductible as DGS is a 501c3 organization.

Story

We will be reviewing applications for Coco on April 22nd.    Animal Profile: Coco is a 6 year old, ~15lb chihuahua/dachshund mix. He was originally adopted from our Texas rescue partner 3 years ago, but the family no longer had the time to care for him. Rather than going back to Texas, the rescue reached out to us and he was transferred to our care. Coco is extremely sweet and good with all humans he has met. He does well his crate; his previous adopters crated him overnight and during the work day. He is potty trained, and is friendly with other dogs. He met our team member's chihuahua during the evaluation, and after a few sniffs he jumped into play mode. Coco is curious on leash and did not react to other humans or dogs during the evaluation. He does pull some, as the adopters walked him on a retractable leash. Coco is sweet, loves people, and he is excited to get the time and attention he deserves. He was fed a poor diet, so his skin is not as glamorous as it could be. DGS will provide him a quality diet to help get him feeling, and looking, his best! Foster Update: Coming soon! Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $500, which includes spay/neuter, current rabies/DAPPV/bordetella vaccinations, microchip, health certificate, and heartworm test. All adoption fees are donations to a Washington non-profit corporation and all donations go to benefit the animals in our rescue.  Apply online at www.DogGoneSeattle.org Animal History: This dog was rescued from euthanasia at a high-kill shelter in Texas and joined us from Saving Our Strays rescue partner.

Story

Benny is a 7-year-old, 12lb Chihuahua/Terrier mix looking for his forever home. He is extremely strong-willed and loaded with personality. He wants to be in control and needs a strong alpha owner. Once he bonds to his person, he is a lover! Benny is a velcro dog. He keeps tabs on his human and likes to be near them and protective. He is very aware of his surroundings. He is territorial, but with consistent socialization, he has overcome much of his aggression. His forever home will need to continue socializing him, his behavior will continue to improve. He is a funny little guy that thinks he is a cat - he likes to stand on your shoulders or crawl on top of things to explore. Benny has a very strong prey drive and will chase cats, rabbits, birds, squirrels, etc. He is not an excessive barker and is quick to recognize recurring noises and adjust his behavior. He is extremely smart and learns fast. He is also a talker and he will talk until you figure out what he wants (humans are so slow). When he is not snuggling, he is very independent and does his own thing. He does not like to be disturbed when he is busy or sleeping. He knows how to sit and shake hands. He will guard resources at first, but not once he feels safe. He does not exhibit separation anxiety and is not destructive. He can react when his harness is put on or removed and seems sensitive about his tummy. He also reacts to entrances and exits as he does not like change. His forever home will need to give him lots of patience and support so he feels secure and can relax. Benny is good with calm female small dogs and some large dogs, he has very strong preferences in everything. His behavior will alter depending on his doggy friend. NOTE: Benny is fearful and untrusting with men. It's our recommendation that he be in a female household with no kids or cats. Households should have rescue or fearful dog experience. He will be aggressive when meeting for the first time. Benny is in foster care and is bonded with Marzi. We are looking to adopt them out together. Benny is UTD on shots, neutered and microchipped. His adoption fee is $300.
