Story
Due to a divorce and an unexpected move I’m reluctantly trying to rehome Ember. She was around 3 years old when I adopted her in 2023. She’s great with kids, but not a fan of other dogs. She loves walks and playing fetch. She has a great recall. She does get a bit anxious when she’s left alone but it’s not an issue if she gets exercise regularly. Located in Spokane.

Story
The best boy and a friend to all! Born on 7/23/26, Kostos is a Husky/German Shepherd mix puppy with black fur, white chest markings, and bluish eyes. Kostos and his eight siblings of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants litter came to us from Adams County Pet Rescue (ACPR).  We expect Kostos will be a large dog when fully grown, and he is already winning hearts with his goofy antics. Large, clumsy, and extremely sweet, Kostos is all gentle giant and just the best boy. He loves everyone, from kids to adults to other dogs. Kostos is so happy to see you; he pins his ears back and wiggles his entire body in greeting. He delights in playing with the other dogs in his home, and he would love to have a canine brother or sister in his future home. A favorite game is to stalk his furry siblings (something he picked up from watching his older foster brother Koa) as part of their play.  For down time, he enjoys watching TV, intently (no two screens for this guy). Kostos is a happy go lucky pup content to be the center of your world or happy to share space with another dog. If he has loving people in his life, he is good to go! While a mellow fellow, Kostos is also a smart pup eager to learn. He enjoys a regular schedule in his foster home, and he is practically potty trained. He sleeps seven hours a night, is learning his basic obedience commands, and progressing well in his leash training. Kostos is well behaved in his crate, and he is very treat motivated. He’s a growing boy and will carry his food bowl around in his mouth, walking around to let you know politely that he would welcome some more kibble. Did we mention he is the best boy? If you are looking to add some cuddly, laid-back energy to your home, Kostos might be the pup for you. To learn more about Kostos, complete an application form and our team will be in touch. Ready to adopt? Now what? Please take 3-4 minutes and complete our application form at: www.lilaccitypupproject.org. Our adoption team will spring into action! You will have a phone call conversation with a dedicated adoption counselor, and the adoption team will contact your vet(s), if applicable. Once you have been matched with a dog, a meet and greet will be set up and take place at the foster family's home. After the meet and greet, there will be a home inspection and in-home trial prior to adoption finalization. Lilac City Pup Project is entirely volunteer and foster run, with no kennel facility. Only approved adoption applicants will be able to meet our dogs outside of adoption events. Adoption Donations: $350 for Puppies up to 9 months $300 for Adults 9 months or older *includes spay/neuter, all core vaccinations, and microchip. Your adoption fee may be tax deductible as Lilac City Pup Project is a federal 501c3 organization. Not sure you want to adopt, foster first and adopt later! LCPP is always in need of fosters. There is an overwhelming number of dogs who need our help and the more fosters we have, the more dogs we can save. LCPP covers expenses, including food. Fosters provide love and a soft place to crash. At Lilac City Pup Project we strive to better the lives of vulnerable dogs through rescue, foster, and adoption services; educate dog owners and empower them to build successful human/canine relationships; and support the local community by partnering with shelters facing overcrowding and limited resources.

Story
Stunning Eyes, Joyful Heart Born on 7/23/26, Bridget is a Husky/German Shepherd mix puppy with warm brown fur, white markings, and striking bluish green eyes. Bridget and her eight siblings of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants litter came to us from Adams County Pet Rescue (ACPR).  We expect Bridget will be a medium sized dog when fully grown, and she is already winning hearts with her fun-loving nature and stunning eyes. Beautiful Bridget is so excited to be a part of this big world. This little girl is curious, smart, up for new adventures, and ready to take on what comes her way (as long as there is some down time for napping). She enjoys the company of older dogs, and a mentor dog sibling would be a lovely companion for her. She fills her day with short walks, games of tug, quiet play with chew toys, more snuggles, and naps (she’s a medium energy puppy who needs to recharge her batteries). Bridget is a sweet, charming girl who would love a home with older, dog-savvy children, another dog, and a fence. This pup adores being outside! When she isn’t playing and being social, Bridget is working on her skills. She is progressing well with her potty training and sleeps 6-8 hours without waking. She’s crate training and finds her crate a comfortable place for relaxation as well as napping. Bridget is learning to walk on a leash, and she is working on her obedience as well. She’s smart and treat motivated, so she would have fun learning more obedience and possibly tricks with her adopted family. If you are looking to add some joy to your family, Bridget might be the pup for you. You can begin the application process to learn more about Bridget. Ready to adopt? Now what?

Story
Trooper is a big, sweet goofball who just wants a best friend of his own. He loves squeaky stuffed animals, treats, splashing in water in the summer, and a good cuddle. He's quiet in the car and a gentleman for the groomer, and if you ask him "where's your toy?" he'll go find one! He's a 7-year-old Lab/Shepherd mix, about 65 lbs, neutered, house-trained, and healthy his whole life.We tried to plan ahead for this once and rehomed him when my wife was pregnant, to a retiree who adored him. Her husband wasn't a dog person, so he came back to us, but she still vouches for him. Now my sister-in-law has moved in, and our small house doesn't have enough room or time for him, which isn't fair to Troop.He'd do best with kids 5 and up, as one of just a few dogs or your only one, and in a calm home where someone's around a lot. He's always lived with cats, and a fenced yard is strongly preferred. He'll need his shots updated and comes with his bed and a couple of days of food.

Story
Jasper is a happy, energetic 2-year-old mix of Husky, German Shepherd, Bull Terrier & Australian Cattle Dog. He’s been with us since 2 months old and is loved very much. He is neutered, microchipped, healthy, fully vaccinated, and receives regular vet care. At 6 months, Jasper completed a 2-week board-and-train program through Off Leash Canine using an e-collar. He is very intelligent, well-trained, and has excellent recall, especially with his training collar. Jasper generally does well with people and other dogs, but he has strong protective instincts. New people entering his home or personal space can trigger growling or nipping. He also tends to dominate his sister and won’t allow her access to toys, bones, or treats. I run a home daycare, so the constant coming and going has become stressful for Jasper and creates an unpredictable safety concern. We believe he would thrive in a calm, structured home with an experienced owner who understands energetic, protective breeds.

Story
Very friendly, dopey giant German shepherd. He’s my brothers Ex’s dog that she left behind when they broke up and he’s just to big for my parents little house and they already had 3 dogs. He’s a gentle giant who deserves more attention and love then he’s getting, great with other dogs even though his size intimidates them and I think he’s good with cats he’s never attacked my parents cat. I believe he would be good with kids but he doesn’t know his own size so he might accidentally hurt smaller kids. Shot history and medical history is unknown but he is healthy.

Story
Meet Vegas — A Second Chance Worth Betting On. Vegas is underweight, skittish, and incredibly submissive - but he has a loyal heart of gold. We can't say whether he's ever been mistreated, but his mannerisms make us wonder if he's spent some time surviving on his own. Despite his fears, Vegas has a wonderfully playful side. He enjoys roughhousing with other dogs and has done well with the canine companions he's encountered during his journey to rescue. He's also a pretty enthusiastic tail-wagger! Vegas wants affection. You can see it. But sometimes he seems genuinely conflicted about whether he should approach or retreat. He'll start toward you, second-guess himself, and then decide that the possibility of getting some love is worth being brave. It's both endearing and a little heartbreaking. After only FOUR DAYS in foster care, he’s cowering less, seeking affection more, and slowly discovering that he doesn't have to spend every moment anticipating something unpleasant. Vegas is also showing signs that being left behind is something he finds particularly difficult. He is non-destructive when left alone - no shredded furniture, no demolished belongings, no household renovations conducted without permission. However, he does vocalize his sadness at being left behind. Today, I left him home with my husband, thinking that having company might make things easier. Vegas had other opinions. He complained. He howled a couple of times. And when I returned, he had a few things to say about my unacceptable absence. My husband is understandably disappointed to discover that he's apparently the spare human. In all seriousness, Vegas is developing an attachment to me, likely because I'm the person spending the most time helping him feel comfortable. He hasn't been here long enough for us to know whether his distress when separated will improve as he settles in, but it's something his future family should understand and be willing to work on. He'll need people who are patient about building his confidence, who can help him gradually learn that departures aren't permanent, and who won't punish him for being frightened or vocal. What does Vegas need? A full belly. A soft bed. A patient heart. And a lifetime of never having to wonder whether he's wanted. After all, this boy has already gambled on trusting us. I'd say he's earned a winning hand. ❤️

Meet Gotham! Gotham is a sweet, gentle soul who is waiting to learn what real love is. He craves affection and human interaction and gets very excited to see his people, but he is also still shy. He will need a patient, caring person who will allow him to continue to blossom. He is great with other dogs and is a complete pacifist with them. He enjoys playing with both other dogs and with the sticks and rocks he finds on the ground. This goofy, loving boy is looking forward to finally having a home and family to call his own. He is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and current on vaccinations.

Meet Blizzard! With his striking blue eyes and incredibly sweet personality, Blizzard is as handsome as they come! Beneath that gorgeous exterior is a gentle soul who absolutely adores belly rubs, soaking up affection, and being showered with pets. He happily greets visitors into the home and is always ready to make new human friends! He would prefer to be the only pet in the home. One of Blizzard’s best qualities is his calm, quiet, easygoing nature. He settles in nicely at home, finding a cozy spot to lie down and relax. He’s also potty trained and may give you a little howl when he needs to go outside. We rescued Blizzard the day he was scheduled to be euthanized, so after coming so close to losing his life, he deserves a family who will cherish him and remind him every day that he’s safe and loved. He is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and current on vaccines. Please reach out if you are interested in him!
