Story
Meet Handsome Fred: Your New Best Friend! Fred is an approximately 1-year-old possible Rhodesian Ridgeback mix with a heart as big as his smile. With rescue pups, it's always a bit of a guess on the breed, but one thing we know for sure is that Fred is 100% charming! Fred is not just a pretty face! He’s a social butterfly who thrives in playgroups, showing off his confident, friendly demeanour and excellent manners. He's excited to make new dog friends of all sizes and does wonderfully with them. However, no cats for Fred—he's a bit too interested in them. Ideal Home: Fred would do best in a home with a yard and another doggy friend or kids to run and play with. He has balanced energy and is keen to cuddle but would also thrive in an active home. He would do great with a moderately playful dog who can match his energy.Freds sweet nature and treat motivation make him a joy to train. Fred is looking for his new best friend and would make a great addition to a home with an active lifestyle. He loves car rides and would love to participate in your daily activities and adventures. He’s silly and has a very expressive face, always making his foster mom laugh. She says, “He’s the best dog ever, and whoever adopts him is really lucking out with this one.” He’s so handsome he’ll be famous in your town! She can’t walk him anywhere without people stopping her to tell her how show-stopping he is! Fred is a quick learner—he’s already potty trained and is making great progress with his leash skills. Is Handsome Fred for you?

Story
Silly Goose is sweet, gentle, loves the water, being outside, and loves being around the people he cares about most. Maybe it’s his sweet eyes that look at you with so much love in them, his cute floppy ears when they perk up or his radiating smile. Goose is a Black Mouth Cur mix approximately just under 2 years old and currently weighs 48 lbs and is fully grown! He is very dog friendly and did amazing meeting all of the dogs we introduced him too. He has the playfulness to play for short bursts with the other dogs but also knows when to take breaks. He is very tolerant and is more of a submissive fella. When he’s not playing with his doggy friends, you’ll typically find him sitting in the back watching the other dogs play in the yard, out exploring and taking in the fresh air, chilling in the pool/pond, or loving on his humans. He has a really nice calming demeanor about him and a great balanced energy that could match a variety of different households. He would do great in home with a backyard where he can sunbathe and roll around in the grass. I do see Goose living his best life out in the country exploring with his people, swimming in the pond, catching butterflies with the kids, and sitting with you on the back porch watching the sunset. Goose is always a bit shy at first but once he knows you’re his person he opens up quickly. Goose has done well in his foster home in the crate and is potty trained. He has also lived with other dogs in the foster home and did great! Goose will need someone willing to help him polish his leash skills and continue reinforcing his basic manners. He is very treat motivated which will make training a breeze. He is not jumpy or mouthy and is very tolerant of physical touch. We believe he would make a great family dog with kids. We are willing to test Goose with anything you need us to in order to ensure it’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

Story
Meet Estrella, a petite nugget of love! Estrella wiggles with excitement to her people and pulls you in with her all white toothy grin staff are so fond of! Check out Estrella and all her love here! https://youtu.be/5XFUx1TVMF4?feature=shared Estrella is around a year old and 35lbs. With her expressive ears and perfectly smush of a face we think she could be a chihuahua and pit bull mix. With rescue, nothing is ever for certain or guaranteed on where our dogs come from or their breeds. But man when she looks up at you and her little front teeth show, all I can think of her as is “a pawfect angel”. Estrella has been around our resident cat Tom and did amazing! When she went up to sniff, he did his typical signal for get away pup, and smacked her. Poor thing went straight to her handler for reassurance! She’s a gentle soul. She was around Tom many times after and never sought to retaliate. She is very cat tolerant and wouldn’t mind kitty friends at home! Though she did great in this interaction, we do not know if she has ever lived with cats nor can we guarantee that things won’t change in the home. We do believe that with slow and proper introductions she can coexist with them! Speaking of friends, Estrella LOVES her hoomans! Some may say even a bit more than anything else. That’s okay though we will take the attention! Estrella met a few of our helper dogs and did well opening up after time to get used to them. She is a naturally curious girl and will go up to check out other dogs if they are facing away (privacy, how considerate of her!). After some time together she started to initiate and return play on her own with her new friends. She got the biggest bounces and zoomies out, she’s like lightning! This bouncy ball of a girl would do well in a home with other dogs who will allow her to melt into herself after a calm meet up. Estella has shown us her love language is definitely physical touch! If you walk by and don’t say hi she will give you some serious booty wiggles and turn those hazel eyes in your direction like “uh dude you know I’m your favorite” until you give her the ultimate snuggles. Get this girl on a couch and you’ve achieved an ultimate binge a thon partner just have those belly scratches ready! Men are starting to grow on little miss thing with the multiple interactions she’s had at the rescue. With more exposure and positive interactions she will get more comfortable. She doesn’t try to attack, just can be guarded but will let you hold her leash and be close! She is so sweet and once you have that trust built she is all yours. Estrella is crate and potty trained to the best of our knowledge. She has stayed at a trusted volunteers home several nights and has came back with nothing but praise! Like with most dogs in a new place she may need a reminder about where the appropriate potty places are once in a home. We are willing to test Estrella with anything you need us to in order to ensure it’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

One of our Adoption Coordinators can help to find the closest transport pick up location to you! The adoption fee is $750.00 and includes all vetting as recommended by our doctor: DAPP (2 to 4 depending on age and time in the program), Bordetella, Rabies vaccine (if old enough), multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, 2 months of heartworm preventative, extended medical such as dentals, eye surgeries, and orthopedic surgeries prior to adoption when suggested by our partner vets, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar for dogs over 4 months old, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and many priceless years of love and loyal companionship! *WE ARE TOLD THAT WE GO ABOVE AND BEYOND MEDICALLY. This is the feedback we tend to get, although we cannot guarantee perfect health. *To fully vet a dog in the PNW at many vets it would be upwards of $1,800 just to fix, vaccinate, chip, etc. The adoption fees charged by our rescue do not cover our expenses medically for each animal, but we offset costs with donations.
