Story
Bella is an 11-month-old mystery mix with a heart full of love and a world of potential. While her breed is a surprise (DNA results coming soon!), Bella is smart, full of energy and eager to please. She knows basic commands like sit, stay, come, down, roll, and shake—and she’s thrilled to learn more! Before being rescued, Bella spent two months in a shelter and was heartbreakingly placed on a kill list. But her story took a happy turn when a wonderful rescue organization stepped in to save her. She adjusted beautifully to life inside a foster home, sleeping peacefully in her crate for 6-7 hours at night without a peep. She’s also a respectful neighbor, doing her business only in her designated spot and never on someone else’s lawn. Bella is still a puppy at heart, so she’s working on socializing, gaining confidence during walks, and curbing her excitement when meeting new people. These are minor adjustments for anyone familiar with training large pups. With her intelligence and eagerness to please, she’s bound to excel with a committed family. In the Car Bella is calm and quiet, and loves tagging along for adventures. At the Vet: Bella’s gentle nature shines; she even fell asleep waiting for the vet! At Home: She’s learning quickly and thriving in a loving environment. With other dogs: Bella is timid at first when seeing other dogs but once she does she will play rough with them, so may do fine with larger dogs. Bella would thrive with an active family with older children or a couple who can give her the structure, activity and love she deserves. Whether you enjoy hiking, running, or simply spending time outdoors, She might enjoy having another medium to large dog to play with, but not smaller dogs. Bella’s journey is just beginning, and she’s ready to make a lucky family complete. If you’re looking for a smart, loving, and loyal pup to grow with, Bella is waiting to meet you. Could you be her forever family?

Story
Abbey came to us in February of 2023 and has been the sweetest dog. She is crate trained from a puppy and she loves to chew on bones. She is high energy and needs more attention than we are able to give while trying to raise three young children. She needs room to run and would be a great farm dog. She is potty trained and has no known allergies. She is great with other dogs and she has been sad since we had to put down our older dog of 14 years old. We absolutely love her and want her to have the best home. It saddens us to do this but we have her best interest at heart to find her a great home.

Story
Accepted responsibility of Ellie when granddaughter was unable to care for her. She's been such a great dog, loves to run and play. I haven't been able to properly care for her. I'm simply too old with a recent knee replacement making walking her very difficult. I have nobody in the area to help and she deserves nothing but the best. She's learned a few tricks which are fun to show off. I am so hoping to find her a good home. The biggest obstacle is that I'm moving, still looking for a place but likely a retirement home type or apartment. Breaks my heart. She wouldn't hurt a fly, loves hugs, and if you're looking for a guard dog, well, she'll bark at the door at strangers, but if they come in, it's all about those hugs.

Story
Hobbes is an incredibly loving and attentive dog. He aced his obedience classes and LOVES spending time with people, including kids! He is a shelter dog who can occasionally be unpredictable with other dogs if food is around; watch your dinner plates cause he’ll go table surfing if you leave them behind. That said, he loves to cuddle and sleep in your lap when he’s not busy making sure your home is free of strangers or unwelcome guests. It breaks our hearts to say goodbye to Hobbes and we really hope he goes to a family that’s able to afford him the life he truly deserves!

Story
Little Carlito's came from California where his owner passed away. He gets along with other dogs and cats. His best friend was a cat. He's not into balls but likes small stuffed animals. He has had an accident in the house, so I try and let out as much as possible. He does walk well on a leash and loves to go for rides in the car. He has been neutered and vaccinees are up to date. He does have bad breath, so I want to make sure this is dealt with appropriately.

Story
Please contact Fran Kreger (k9kids4adoption@gmail.com), (541) 926-5629 for more information about this pet.My name is Dex.  I am about 3 years old, and weigh about 85 pounds of pure love.  I would love to be your best friend. A female dog would be fun to play with.  Being an only boy would be wonderful too. I want a home SO badly, and would love one with a fenced yard, toys, someone to be near while we watch tv, and sleep at night.. I adore the water too. A trip to the beach would be so fun, or we could just play in the hose... If you might be my forever new family, Please email k9kids4adoption@gmail.com for an application, and tell us a little about the home you have for me, where you are located, and a phone number would also be nice....I am waiting.  An approved application, and a great home with a fenced yard, are required.... I will come vaccinated, neutered micro-chipped, and collar and leash.   Until we have received your completed application we can not arrange a meeting.March 27, 2025, 12:05 pm
