Story

Hi! My name is Aurora and I am available for adoption!I was brought in by a good samaritan on March 9, 2025.**I can climb 6 ft fences**I weigh 65 lbs and am considered a medium `breed` dog.I am a very smart dog! At the shelter I am practicing how to `sit`, `stay`, `come`, `down` and `shake`.I am an affectionate lovebug who would be thrilled to cuddle up with you at home!I am an independent dog who likes to do my own thing!My caregivers have noticed that I seem to do well with other large dogs. When meeting dogs in a new home, I would do best with a slow introduction.Because of my shy nature, I would do best in a calm, quiet home with old children.I am a spirited dog with a fun-loving personality! I am still working on my manners, so I would do best with a family who is willing to work with me and help me become the best dog I can be!

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. MAGGIE loves people and craves attention! She prefers to be an only fur baby and queen of her home. She has a typical Malamute personality, a very sweet girl but also likes to be independent and aloof when the mood strikes. She enjoys being with her human pack where she can be pet all over, get belly rubs and cuddles. MAGGIE likes to walk several times a day checking out the neighborhood. She is good in the car and will be happy to join you on all of your adventures! She has done well with older kids, though does like to put her paws up on people, which is why it is best that she is not with small children. Her dream home would be a big fenced yard to relax in and enjoy some quiet time. But also be inside where she can keep an eye on her family and lounge around, knowing her people are safe.

Story

Click the button to download the adoption application. The application is a form-fillable pdf. Fill out the form, save it to your hard drive, then email back to sian@gingerspetrescue.org Hi! My name is Xavier from Korea and I am a wonderful approximately 5 month old male Akita - Jindo mix. I weigh approximately 14 lbs. and so excited to find my new forever home. I am very happy, affectionate, smart, and friendly. I was saved from the Korean kill shelter where I was due to be euthanized. The activists came and saved me and I can't wait to come to America and find a family to love and care for me forever. Approximately over a million dogs a year are slaughtered to be eaten. I am so lucky to get a one-way ticket to Seattle to find my new family. Take me on car rides, walks in the park, and I will become your best friend. I get along well with people of all ages, gentle kids, and other dogs. I will do best with a loving family that can give me lots of love, and affection! On all overseas adoption, we highly recommend our pet rescue dog trainer who will help train your new pup. My adoption fee of $1,295 will cover my spay/neuter, DA2PP shots, Rabies, Bordetella, Deworm, Heart Worm Test, Microchip, Boarding Fees, Health Certificate and airline transport cost from Korea to Seattle. A GPS tracker or Apple Air Tag is required for all adopted dogs. You can bring your own when adopting or you can purchase an Air Tag from us We cannot guarantee breed or age. The adoption fee is firm and helps save the life of another dog needing rescue and our other dogs in need of medical care. Donations are always appreciated to help pay down our vet bills at Greenwood Vet. Ginger's Pet Rescue is a non-profit 501C-3 organization. The adoption fee is donated to the rescue and is tax deductible. Please e-mail admin@gingerspetrescue.org for an adoption application. November 6, 2024, 4:57 am

Story

Jason Momoa is a looker, just like his name sake- and thankfully, he's just a great a dog as he is good looking! He is slightly smaller than your typical American Akita but he's got that Akita mindset. This means he can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but as he's young and smart, he's learned quickly that people bring the fun (and food)- so he makes friends quickly now. He also loves to play and along with training, these are the keys to his heart! He already knows quite a few commands and walks well on a leash- but also loves to run and play in the yard. He plays his own version of fetch which mostly involves running around with the ball- not so much bringing it back- but he loves this game! Typical for his breed, he can be slightly protective and this is why we require someone with previous "power breed" or Akita experience. Akitas are typically not first time dogs and they need boundaries and structure that most first time owners do not understand (which is exactly why he is with us). Jason is crate trained and housebroken. He would do best in a home with no children. Home cannot have other male dogs, and/or smaller breeds. Jason is UTD on vaccines, microchipped, and neutered. ADOPTION DONATION: $600.00. Your adoption donation goes toward the cost of this vet care as well as transportation and general care costs. All dogs adopted from Motley Zoo come with a leash and Martingale collar. Each dog also receives a "Tour Gear Bag" full of brochures, coupons, and supplies for your new pup! Please visit our website www.motleyzoorescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story

Malamute border collie mix with a beautiful golden color mixed into her otherwise black and white coat. Well groomed and in perfect health with well cared for teeth. Naili has a great temperament. She loves people and loves kids and has a lot of experience with toddlers and babies. She is very affectionate and snuggly. Loves going on hikes, loves playing fetch, loves running in the woods. Thoroughly obedience trained. Perfectly house trained. No counter surfing, no chewing. She's an indoor dog who loves the outdoors. She's great off-leash and her recall is good. E-collar trained. Highly food motivated. She loves playing other dogs for short durations and would probably love living with another dog too with some patient introduction. We would provide everything you need but suggest upgrading her crate size to X-large. She would love you and she's lovable back.
