Prince had 48 hours left to live otherwise he was going to lose his life in a very high kill shelter in CA. His owner had dropped the handsome Prince off at the shelter & he had been waiting for someone to come for him for well over a month, but no one did. He had his second upper respiratory infection in the shelter but as we quickly learned when we rescued him & rushed him to our vets he had pneumonia & we did not know if he was going to survive as he was so extremely ill. Our vets let us know if we did not rescue him he would of died from the pneumonia before he was put to sleep. We had our work cut out for us with Prince after rescuing him, he was extremely sick & stayed at our vets for several days on an iv, receiving meds, good nutrition & care. Once he was well enough off into his foster home he went, he followed his foster mum everywhere & became her shadow. We wanted to make sure Prince is good with men & we put him into a daycare with men to see how he was & he loves the men who look after him. Prince does well with some dogs but we recommend a home where he can be the only dog & get all the attention. He also does like to play & will play rough with the other dogs. Prince rides beautifully in the car & enjoys a good journey & he now loves to eat & walks good on a leash. We are looking for a forever home with Prince where someone is home during the day or he can go with his people wherever possible. Prince is looking for a forever home who will cherish him & love him as he should be loved. This boy has already been through so much & already been abandoned before. Prince has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes & he is currently with other dogs here in WA & was in CA. Prince is roughly 5 years old & 64.2 lbs & is perhaps a American pit bull, male, neutered, took several months to get him healthy & to a healthy weight as he had severe pneumonia & we did not know if he would survive, had patchy hair loss & crusty patches on skin, he is microchipped, up to date on his shots, including DHLPP, Bordatella, CIV, rabies & dewormed. We have spent far more on rescuing Prince, with all of his medical care, getting him well from severe pneumonia including x-rays, treatments & not knowing if he would survive the severity of the pneumonia he needed a lot of extra care. Along with vet bills in CA & WA, transport, boarding etc we have spent more on Prince’s care than his fee covers. Prince has been around cats since being in the rescue & he does like to chase the cats so a home with no cats is best for Prince, but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not had him around small children so we do not recommend small children & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children. We were not there when Prince was conceived so we do not know who his parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think his breed is. As with all of our rescues & Prince’s friends he will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training with more than 1 class. Please do not email us asking is Prince potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond. We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying. Prince has been through many traumas in his life so when applying this needs to be kept in mind & for his care. Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Prince & going through our process and have read his listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on & remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit using Webex due to covid & followed by a meet and greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Prince who understands his needs & that meet all the requirements for this beautiful boy. Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately. Prince has an adoption fee of $500 & is ready for his truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what he has been through.

Soul destroying is the only way to look back & see Dovy in a kill shelter in CA in a picture of her posted on social media. This picture would make you cry because you could see from her body just how much she had been abused & used over & over & over again. This beautiful lady had an owner & was dumped at the shelter because they were finished using her. We could not bare to leave this beautiful girl there & as it was she desperately needed out as her time had run out at the kill shelter. No way were we going to let her stay in a death camp of a scary shelter in CA. That day was 1 very sad & joyous day all at the same time. We got Dovy out of the shelter & low & behold we found out when we went to spay her, she was pregnant. Dovy had her babies but unfortunately they all went to heaven, no surprises unfortunately because we knew she was not looked after, nor loved, nor cared for at all. This girl is so outstanding, she has endured so much & yet is still full of life, love & enthusiasm for joy. Our wonderful vet discovered a large mass & she needed her spleen removed, so we got her spleen removed. She originally was not impressed by other dogs probably because of all the times she was forced to have puppies but now this beautiful girl loves other dogs & is so forgiving of what humans did to her. Dovy who is now looking for her very own forever home who will never give up on her again & love her just as we all do. After we got Dovy out of the kill shelter she was brought back to WA state from CA where she can’t wait to find her devoted loving forever home. The picture of Dovy in the kill shelter it says just how sad she was & how she had been used over & over as a breeding machine to make money off her back. Her poor boobies at the time were touching the ground. She is unrecognizable to that picture to the little lady she is today. She was very thin, she needed to put on a lot of weight, which now she has. Her zest for life is like no other. She has endured so much with losing her babies & from needing her spleen removed. She just wants to be loved & she so loves you back. She looks as though she is smiling with glee when she gets her picture taken. Disturbing to think no one wanted her & she was ready to die. The level of absolute madness here is so deeply sad for many of these beautiful souls out of CA kill shelters. Dovy is a very soft gentle soul, she is so easy to love considering what he has endured. She loves everyone she meets & enjoys being cuddled to & given love. She will bowl you over with her enthusiasm for joy & her happiness. Sweet Dovy foes not have a mean bone in her beautiful body. That being said, Dovy is a good eater, she loves to eat & she is making up for lost time. Dovy’s new forever home must have a fully fenced secured backyard. Dovy has now been great with her baths because she started having them with us the moment she was rescued so she is used to them. We don’t know how many baths she previously had before coming to us, it appeared to be a shock to her system having a bath for the first time. Then the many times after as she needed medicated baths for skin infection. Dovy now rides beautifully in the car & enjoys a good journey & still needs continued work walking on her harness & leash. She is a big strong girl who gets very, very excited when on her harness leash. We are looking for a forever home for Dovy where someone is home during the day or she can go with her people wherever possibly she can go with them & there must be another dog or dogs in the home for her to thrive. Dovy loves other dogs & needs another dog in the home to play with. This is mandatory for her new home. We are also looking for a crate free home for the little lady only. She was in the dreaded shelter until we rescued her. Dovy is looking for a forever home who will cherish her & love her as she should be loved & be patient with her. Dovy has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes & she is currently with other dogs & does well with them & enjoys their company. It’s mandatory for her to be in a home with playful dogs. Dovy is roughly just a 5 years old & roughly 59 lbs & is perhaps a American pit bull, what she is mixed with we are not sure. She is female, spayed, came out of the shelter with a bad skin infection along with a ear infection that she came out of the shelter with. We treated her & got her better before she could go under anesthesia. Dovy had a dental, scale & polish & dental x-rays along with a incisor & premolar removed. Dovy had to have her spleen removed because it had a mass on it. Her spleen was sent away to be tested & it was a benign splenic mass, she is microchipped, heart worm negative, given flea treatment, up to date on her shots, including DHLPP, Bordatella, CIV, rabies & dewormed. We have spent over $3000 on Dovy, getting her safe, well & healthy with all of her medical care & needs. Dovy has not been around cats since being in the rescue but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together. We have not had her around small children so we do not recommend small children nor cats & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children.

Meet Mina🩷 Mina came to Korean city shelter by herself. In contrast to her tough and strong appearance, she is timid and mild-tempered, but maybe because of her large sized body, she has been waiting for her family for a long time. She may have a lot to learn but she deserves to be loved!! We are waiting for her family who can wait and give so much love to her who is waiting for a family for so long. * She likes people and wary of them at the same time. She gets scared easily and is a shy girl. Can get scared of a sudden touch but doesn’t avoid soft touches and stays calm. Secretly likes human touches.😊 *Mina needs to be cared in a clean environment but with Center’s muddy and dirt ground touching her legs, her skin discoloration is not improving. *Likes to dig the dirt!❤️ *Gets along well with other doggy friends. She always hangs out with them and accepts other pups nibbling her.🐶 *Can eat food without being picky or complaint, and absolutely loves her treats.🍠 * Because she's scared, she barks when strangers come. But she has never shown any aggressive behavior! Just a scared girl.

Meet Sophia, Pippy the Tomboy 🐶 What comes to your mind when you hear the name, “Sophia”? Calm and stoic? Then, think again. Our Sophia is lively and full of curiosity. She responds to your every word by tilting her head right and left. Sophia will shower you with kisses once she knows you. Sophia was rescued from a massive dog meat trade in Korea. She is learning how to be with people in a professional training center. Now she's ready to meet her own family!! * Sophia is a goofy bundle of enthusiasm, so she needs to join a family with adults or older children.

Hi! My name is Nuvia and I am available for adoption.I was brought in as a stray originally and then adopted. I was returned by my adopters because I have a hard time being home alone. I lived in a home with adults. My previous owner described me as playful and outgoing. I don`t know any commands yet but I`m an eager pup who`s ready to learn! I`m food motivated so teaching me new things should be a snap. I am full of energy and I love to play! I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy. I would do best in a home with older children due to general bounciness. I weigh 38lbs and am considered a medium size dog.I`m a playgroup pal! So far I`ve played with one other dog of a similar size and did very well. Make sure to ask staff about my interactions with other dogs to hear me! My personality color is RED. 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!

Hi! My name is Zero and I am available for adoption.I was orginally brought to RASKC by a good samaritan on January 11, 2024. I was adopted and returned on April 13, 2024 after a couple of months because it was just not a right fit due to my high energey levels and space needed to run!I weigh 54.5 lbs and am considered a `medium breed` dog.I am VERY treat motivated and will happily `sit`, `shake` and `lay down` for them :)The shelter thinks I am mixed with a husky which means I am full of energy and I love to play! I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy.I am looking for a family that is outdoorsie or athletic who is willing to take me on long walks, hikes or adventures :)My personality color is RED. 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!

Hi! My name is Sunny and I am available for adoption. I was brought in by a good samaritan on January 13, 2024.I`m a fun loving, friendly and happy boy! While I`ve been at RASKC, I`ve been going to playgroup with other dogs and I absolutely love it. I`ve only played with other medium size dogs, but I bet I could get along with just about anyone. I`m pretty easy going when I`m in a kennel, I spend a lot of time lazing around so I probably have a good `off switch.` I`m looking forward to summer and hope I can spend it being the light of my new familys life!I weigh 62lbs and am considered a `large breed` dog.I can get excited and bouncy when the energy around me gets high so I would probably do best in a home with older children. I tend to be a bit overly interested in cats and may do best in a home without small animals or a home that`s willing to take introductions very slow.I went into a foster home and this is what they said about me: Meet Sunny, a sweet and loving guy, with the most stunning eyes and big heart. He is around three years old and 62lbs and would be happy to be your lap dog if you let him. He is a total snuggle bug and gives big kisses once he warms up to new people.Sunny is house trained and hasn`t had any accidents inside while in his foster home. He is crate trained and does great in his crate at night and while alone for short periods.Sunny absolutely loves his toys! His favorites are his cheese-stuffed Kong, and stuffed animals (the super strong ones, because he can CHEW!) His toys are important, as he has an active mind and needs plenty of mental and physical stimulation.He is a smart boy, learning new things every day. He has mastered `sit`, `shake` and `down`. He is working on his recall and working on his leash manners. He likes treats and takes them very gently.Sunny is a bit too interested in small animals like rabbits, birds, and squirrels, and wants to chase them. So, a home without smaller animals is best.He is a large and goofy pup that sometimes forgets how big he is, so a home without small children would be best.This snuggle bug just wants to please his people and be loved. He cannot wait to find his forever home and be your ray of sunshine!

Hi! My name is Persimmon and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by an Animal Control Officer on January 1, 2024 along with my pal when we were found roaming in a store.I weigh 81.0 lbs and am considered a `large breed` dog.I may weight 81.0 lbs, but I am truly a big baby! I can be head shy at first, but once I warm up to you I just want to be near you and will nuzzle your hand when I feel like you`re not giving me the attention I want :)I am VERY treat motivated and can easily be won over with them!Due to my shy nature I would do best in a home without younger children (fast movements and loud noises startle me).The staff at RASKC mention that I am the best snuggler and have been the best office dog! I don`t make a peep and just love to nap.My personality color is BLUE. I am a gentle and loving dog who likes to take things slow. I may get nervous in new situations, so I am looking for a family who understands that I might take some time to warm up. Once I get to know you, I will be a very devoted friend!Persimmmon received a basic physical exam, in addition to routine vaccines, deworming, and topical flea preventative, if indicated.
