Story
I raised Ruger since he was 3 weeks old. I had to bottle feed him. Unfortunately he was attacked by another dog when he was 6 months old. So he doesn't play well with other animals. He's never bitten anyone or hurt any other animal. He just gets real excited. Ruger's a big lover with a lot of energy so the adopter should be someone who's very active. Unfortunately I have to re-home him because I have to move across the country in an attempt to get and stay sober. I can't take him with me or I would. Ideally the perfect situation would be someone willing to foster him for me for 6 months.

Story
Minnow is a goofy, happy 3 year old, 55 pound American Staffordshire/Lab mix that is the perfect companion. She is a delightful girl, always making her foster parents laugh. Whether it is taking a walk, a hike, playing with her toys, lounging, she is a great companion, She is a medium energy gal who gets the zoomies at walk time, and then relaxes on the couch after. She is satisfied with 2 potty breaks and one 45" walk on weekdays, and stays home well on her own. She is easy to train and knows many training cues. Minnow loves walks, hikes, cuddling on the couch, playing with her plushy toys, fetching her ball and being with her people. We seek a home with a female,, and if there is a man/men, they are gentle and patient, allowing her to develop comfort and attachment at her pace. Thus far, she meets new people well. She currently lives in an apartment, and receives two short 15" walks plus 1 45" walk on weekdays. We will be seeking a home with a yard, but it is a testament to her calm personality that she lives so well in an apartment. Minnow gets along with other dogs. No cats; she chases. She has not been around children and has seemed wary of them. Teens who are calm and gentle will be fine. Minnow is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. All of her worldly belonging come with her, including: leash, collar, harness, rain coat, food dish and mat, dog bed, kong, stuffies, lick mat, treats, small amount/remaining food, dog shampoo and nail clipper. Her adoption fee is $250. On drives over 30", she has sometimes gotten car sick and sometimes now. Meds and behavioral fixes have not yet been tried; we can discuss. A great home for Minnow and her must haves include: 1. An owned home with a securely fenced yard. 2. Dog savvy adopters who have plenty of time to spend with their pet. 3. Folks who will give this girl all of the love, warmth, good quality care and food that she deserves. 4. Adopters who will include her in their fun activities. Minnow would love to start the new year in her forever home, so if you are interested, run don't walk, to inquire or apply! To Inquire: please send an email to: awoofovermyhead@gmail.com. Include: Minnow in the subject line. Give us some information about yourself, and how Minnow will fit into your life. Please leave a phone number so that we may reach out to you.

MEET MEERA! Meera is a beautiful and small 5-1/2-year-old blue & white American Staffordshire Terrier in need of a forever home. She's currently in a foster home near Portland.

Meera is a loving and cuddly girl and would do great with a single person, a couple, or a family with older kids. She would do well in a condo or apartment, too. She loves car rides, and loves to go out and about and enjoy the sunshine. She is not a fan of other dogs, so needs to be the only dog in the home. She's also got a prey drive, so no cats, please.
