Story
Say hello to 2+ year old Chonk, a sweet, cuddly, and curious pup looking for his forever people. Don't let the name fool you. This guy is a total lovebug who will follow you from room to room just to see what you're up to, then bury his face in your chest for a proper snuggle. He's a champion face-burrower and thinks his humans are the best thing in the world. Chonk is a medium to high energy dog who loves his walks and is a pleasure on leash, especially when treats are involved (he is highly food motivated and very willing to work for them).  After a good outing, he's perfectly content to settle in with a chew toy and relax alongside his people. He has lovely manners around food, and post-dinner zoomies are a nightly event and guaranteed entertainment. Chonk is looking for a one-dog household. He is easygoing and content on his own, but he still gets a bit overexcited around other dogs and is happiest as the only pup in the home.  He's also hoping to find a forever family  who is  interested in teaching him new and useful life skills and cues using force-free, positive reinforcement training methods. He's still learning  how to best let you know  when he wants attention, without mouthing, jumping,  and  gentle nipping. He's improving steadily with patient, kind guidance. He's a smart, willing student who just needs a thoughtful human to help him finish growing up. If you are ready for a loyal, loving companion who will think you hung the moon, Chonk would love to meet you.  September 27, 2026, 5:14 pm

Story
I am being forced to rehome my 9 year-old dog Dozer and would love to find someone who can offer him the life he deserves. I cannot take him to a shelter as that would most likely mean he would be euthanized. For the most part, Dozer is a giant love bug who enjoys running in the yard, playing with toys and lots of human attention. He has had some behavior issues in the past which I am happy to discuss at length with any prospective adopters. Dozer can get along with other dogs after a proper introduction, but it would be best if he were in a situation where he would be the only dog. I'm heartbroken that I have to give him up as he has been my best friend since I adopted him as a puppy. If you think you want to give him a chance, please reach out to me.

Story
I acquired Takoba when she was just a pup and have had her ever since. She is a good dog that loves to play. She listens to simple commands like sit and paw. She is treat and ball motivated and is very energetic. She has jumping and barking issues. She has been both an indoor dog and an outdoor dog before. I have to find her a new home ASAP due to another dog having issues with her. There are two dogs at out house and they often times fight so rehoming is best for Takoba.

Story
BEST WAY TO INQUIRE, EMAIL CONTACT@BAMMRESCUEPDX.ORG Monroe is just 1 year old… a baby who should be learning about love, play, and safety — not losing her home and facing an uncertain future. This 43-pound, petite, squishy little girl was owner-surrendered on 11/17/25. She came in confused, but still so full of love for every person who approaches her. Monroe is friendly with all people, accepting of handling, takes treats gently, and even sits when asked. She’s wiggly, playful, and has that adorable mini-Sharpei look that makes your heart melt Her former home reported she does not do well with other dogs, and had multiple incidents with the dogs she lived with. Because of this, Monroe may need to be the ONLY dog in her next home — something many rescues struggle to placeBut should this sweet, loving baby lose her life because she doesn’t want to share her home with o She’s unpredictable with dogs, but with people? She is a total loveA dog who leans in for affection. A dog who wants connection. A dog who needs structure, training and stability At the shelter, she’s been energetic, happy, and easy to handle. She goes in and out of the kennel with no issues, accepts full handling, and lights up for attention. Dog tests are pending, but she’s showing staff what a GOOD girl she is with humans. Monroe deserves a real chance — a safe place to be an only dog, a foster willing to help her decompress, a rescue who sees the sweet young soul behind the behavior notes. ##2608295##

Story
BEST WAY TO INQUIRE, EMAIL Adoptions@BAMMRESCUEPDX.ORG Jack Sparrow is a strong, confident, and energetic dog who thrives with patient, experienced handlers. While he shows high stress and reactivity in the kennel, he is fully tolerant of handling once outside the kennel and enjoys attention from his volunteer friends. On leash, he walks well, wags his tail, and is able to focus when given space from other dogs. Jack is highly responsive to structure and benefits from thoughtful distance management around other dogs. He would do best as the only dog in the household with an adopter who understands dog reactivity, has experience with strong, energetic dogs, and can provide consistent guidance, training, and enrichment. With the right home, Jack has the potential to become a loyal and engaging companion. Please consider being the one to give Jack the fresh start he deserves. Jack is 1.5 years old and 80 pounds. ##2642001##

Story
MEET BEANS!   Meet Beans, a big, goofy, affectionate boy who absolutely loves his people! Beans was saved from euthanasia in Texas and is now under the care of BAMM Rescue while he waits for the right forever family to find him.   Beans is approximately 5 years old, 65 pounds, and an American Staffordshire Terrier mix. He is neutered and has completed a board-and-train obedience program. This handsome guy already has an impressive list of skills: he is house trained, doggy-door trained, crate trained, and walks well on a leash.   Beans is an active guy!   Beans has plenty of energy and would thrive with an active person or family. He loves playing fetch, getting exercise, and—believe it or not—running on both dog and human treadmills! We think he could be a fantastic companion for someone who enjoys running, exercising, or simply spending lots of time being active with their dog.   When the activity is over, Beans is an incredibly affectionate dog who loves his people. He can get excited when his favorite humans come around, and sometimes his enthusiasm gets the better of him! Typically however, he is fairly mellow!   ‍‍‍ Kids 10+ would be a great fit.   Beans is phenomenal with people and could do very well in a home with children 10 years of age or older. His age recommendation isn't because of aggression—Beans simply doesn't always realize that he's a 65-pound dog! When he gets excited, he could accidentally bump into or knock over a younger child.   Beans would be happiest as your one-and-only pet.   Beans has demonstrated that he can successfully coexist with other dogs, particularly females. However, his history hasn't always been easy. His previous owners experienced periods of being unhoused, and Beans has been attacked by other dogs in the past. There have subsequently been situations in which Beans has reacted when he perceived that another dog was challenging or threatening him.   Because we want Beans—and his future family—to be successful for the rest of his life, we are looking for a home where Beans can be the only dog. We should not he is not reactive to other dogs in public unless that dog is reactive.    Absolutely no cats or small animals.   Beans is not an appropriate match for a home with cats or other small animals.   Beans' ideal home:   • Active person, couple, or family • Children approximately 10+ • No other dogs • No cats or small animals • Someone who enjoys exercise, running, fetch, and spending time with their dog • A family ready for a goofy, enthusiastic, affectionate companion who will be thrilled every single time they walk through the door   Beans has already survived circumstances that no dog should have to experience. Now he's looking for something much simpler: a safe, stable home, plenty of exercise, and people of his own to love.   If you're looking for an active best friend with a huge personality and an even bigger heart, Beans may be your guy. ##2483096##

Story
I have two dogs that need to be rehomed while I deal with my personal medical situation and will be unable to care for them (Two profiles). The are both good dogs and although I would want them to be rehomed together, I may be put in a situation where they will be rehomed separately. Both dogs has just had their annual vet appointment and their shots are up to date. If possible I would like to still be able to have visits with both of my dogs if/when they are rehomed. (Pictures will be available soon) Bulla: Is a very hyper and active six year old English bulldog who needs an adopter/home to be very loving and attentive to his needs. He loves attention, loves engaging with new people, and loves to play. Bulla has lost a lot of hair on both of his sides and his back area which could be hormonal according to latest check up Please contact me for additional questions
