Story
Considering adopting? The first step is to complete our online Adoption Application at http://forgetmenotshelter.org/application Please do not call the shelter; do the application first. Meet Cooter, the ultimate "best of both worlds" dog who is ready to sprint straight into your heart! This stunning year-old Golden Retriever and German Shepherd mix makes everyone smile with his vibrant personality. Cooter is the perfect age to start a lifetime of adventures, combining the legendary loyalty of a Shepherd with the goofy, sunshine-filled heart of a Golden. Cooter is a high-energy athlete, currently a 60-pound fun-seeking missile, who believes life is one giant game of fetch. Whether you are looking for a dedicated hiking partner or a champion zoomie-competitor for your backyard, this boy is up for the task. Because he is such a smart doggo, he’ll thrive in a home that can keep his mind as busy as his paws through training, puzzles, and plenty of outdoor play. He is a "blank slate" teenager just waiting for a family to teach him the ropes and turn all that youthful enthusiasm into refined skill. While his energy is boundless, his favorite place to be is right by your side. After a long day of exploring, Cooter’s affectionate side takes over, and he’s more than happy to settle in for some serious ear scratches and belly rubs. Leash training has begun for Cooter, along with working on sitting and waiting rather than rocketing through any open door. You will want to continue his training on the basics to help him become the best dog he can be! Cooter is housetrained, though does occasionally suffer from some "excitement urination." This is something he will likely outgrow as he becomes a fully adult dog over the next year; having a stable home, family, and routine will also help! He was surrendered through no fault of his own and is now looking for an active household that can match his zest for life. Cooter is good with other dogs, NOT a friend to cats, and, though he LOVES small children, he's a bit too much dog for toddlers, who would be like bowling pins facing Cooter's ball of enthusiasm. If you have the space in your home and your heart for a smart, spirited, and soulful companion, come meet Cooter today and see if you’re the perfect match for this golden-hearted Shepherd! All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Cooter is a suggested minimum of $150 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts. Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!

What my friends at Seatle Humane say about me:- Words used to describe me are: nice, sweet, loving, friendly, social.- I`m kind of a zig-zag walker but honestly there are so many places to sniff!- I will lean in for treats and pets.- I am proud to say I know `sit` `shake` and `down`, working on some more commands!

Story
This cutie is Lynx! He is currently 2 months old and we think they may be a Shepherd mix, but with rescue it’s a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from us, it saves their life as well as the life of another in its place. Watch Lynx’s and his siblings playful personality here: https://youtu.be/9Ahusf2-k7c?si=ZdP9v8RyxYcwV7xc Lynx is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. He loves to play with his siblings and take lots of naps. Eat, sleep, play, repeat- such is puppy life! We pride ourselves in being able to give you good personality and behavioral information to help ensure this baby is the right fit for you. You are also welcome to do a Facetime call to meet your new baby before signing paperwork! Lynx is still very young and will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. A puppy is discovering new things that shape their personalities with each passing day. Implementing routine, structure, setting boundaries, and proper socialization is key from the start. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy starting immediately when arriving at their new home, which will help with potty training, energy management, and the overall development of a well-rounded adult dog. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
