Anatolian Shepherd puppies and dogs in Portland, Oregon

Mac and his siblings found themselves at a small rural shelter with no foot traffic so we got them out. Mac is curious and independent and loving and adventurous. He loves water and he spends most of his day exploring the woods and ponds on the property. He is super smart too. His siblings are all fluffier than he is and look more shepherd like than he does. He has more of a heeler look in terms of coloring and shape but based on their sizes and their growth since I got them, I believe they will be big dogs. Big, happy, friendly, loving dogs. He is about 4 months old. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue (copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tumwater, Tacoma, Tukwila, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Michigan (St Joseph, Battle Creek, Ann Arbor) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) - New Jersey (Bedminster) - Nevada (Las Vegas) - Arizona (Flagstaff) - Vermont (Brattleboro) Vetting: neutered, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, too young for a heartworm test.

Charlie and his siblings Dennis, Dee, and Mac have an always sunny disposition. They are spunky, happy friendly and curious. Their favorite past time is hanging out by one of the ponds. They don't quite swim yet but definitely love water. Great with dogs of all sizes and with cats. Love to cuddle. Do not love being a crate though. They will each make perfect family dogs or adventure buddies for a single person or couple. They are some of the best puppies I've ever met. They were surrendered to a small rural shelter as an accidental litter. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well.

Adopted from a friend in Yakima, along with his brother Keanu, Ollie is 2 years old and is looking for an experienced dog owner to take him in. Recommended that the new home does not have other pets or small children. A perfect home for Ollie would be one that is able to provide him the time and energy he needs to live a fulfilling and attended life. He is very energetic, sweet, a little clumsy, and he is decently able to follow commands. Ollie would require dedicated time to train and immerse himself in a new life. He is currently not getting enough exercise and care, due to my parents' failing health over the last year. I am hopeful that the right owners are just around the corner for him. No fee required, we just want Ollie to have a happy life.

Adopted from a friend in Yakima, along with his brother Ollie. Keanu is 2 years old. He is looking for an experienced owner who is able to provide him with energy and proper care. Keanu is a very goofy, clumsy, loving, and curious dog. He has been a gentle giant in our home and a good friend. Keanu's perfect home would be able to provide him with additional training and proper veterinary care, along with plenty of loving and treats. He is okay with kids, but recommended caution with other animals, especially small ones due to his size. My parents are unable to care for him due to declining health. We would very much like for Keanu to find a great family and live a good life.

Looking for a loyal companion who will shower you with love every single day? Allow us to introduce Kelly, a stunning girl with a heart full of affection and a spirit that lights up every room she enters. And SPEAKING of showers.... SHE LOVES THE WATER :) Kelly is a love bug through and through. One of her favorite things in the world is giving warm, gentle hugs. Lean in, and she’ll nestle right into you, as if to say, “You’re my person.” She absolutely adores being close to her humans, and there’s nothing she enjoys more than curling up beside you after a day full adventures. Scratches? Yes, please! Behind the ears, under the chin, or right at the base of her tail—Kelly is always up for a good scratch session, and she’ll reward you with the sweetest look of pure bliss.

She's the perfect blend of affectionate and mellow—loving and eager to please. Kelly is ready to start her next chapter with someone who will cherish her as much as she’ll cherish them.

Sarge is a neutered 2 year old Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix currently being fostered in Denver, CO. Sarge is an outgoing, playful, and affectionate boy with a big personality and an even bigger love for fun. He is smart, curious, and full of energy, and he thrives when he has opportunities to play, explore, and be active with his people. Sarge loves other dogs and is always eager to make friends. He will happily nudge a dog to invite them to play and enjoys running and tug of war, especially with dogs his size or larger. While he gets excited and may pull toward dogs on leash, he is not aggressive and does well with slow, proper introductions. He is great at picking up on cues and will back off when another dog is done playing. Sarge has a moderate to high energy level and would do best in an active home. He would love daily walks, hikes, playtime, and mental stimulation. A fenced yard would be a big bonus, but he could also thrive with a family committed to keeping him exercised. He would do well with or without another dog in the home. On leash, Sarge could use some continued training. He is strong and tends to pull, but he responds well to guidance and does great with a gentle leader. He is fully house trained and crate trained, sleeping in his crate overnight and when his people are out. He can also be trusted with free roam, as he is not destructive. Sarge is a total lovebug with people. He is very cuddly, affectionate, and happy to greet new friends, though he may jump a bit when excited. He loves toys and proudly hoards them, lining them up one by one like treasured possessions. One of his cutest habits is doing a full somersault onto his dog bed after running inside. Sarge would be an amazing match for an active person or family looking for an adventure buddy. Older kids or dog savvy children would be best since he can be jumpy when excited. With continued leash training, plenty of toys, and lots of outdoor time, Sarge will be a loyal, joyful companion. ***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. *** Interested in applying to adopt him?

This sweet girl is Xena! When you first meet her, you’ll realize that she’s two things: gorgeous, number one of course,then you’ll realize how gentle she is. Xena is not the smallest girl in the bunch, however, she is the most calm and laid-back—almost to the point where you will forget she’s there. You can often find her and her doggie bed or on the couch. Those are her happy places. well, anywhere she can lay down is really a happy place for her. If you can’t find her in those two places, you can most likely find her outside sunbathing while her friends romp around in the grass. Life with her is simple and sweet— just as it should be! Watch Xena and get to know her endearing self right here! https://youtu.be/Tw_C3T6JvQg?si=r1DB-Q_90B07U1Zc We believe that Xena is a mix between a mastiff and a Staffordshire terrier. We believe she is around 5 years old! With rescue this is just a guess. However, one thing that we can promise? Lots of love and snuggles in your future. Xena is a gorgeous fawn color with the sweetest droopy puppy dog eyes looking up at you like “are you gonna give me a treat or what?!” She’s a thick girl that’s not running any marathons, but she can promise you that she will be the best snuggle bug in the house. Her Foster’s children love to tuck her in and make her a little burrito in her blankies. She would be the perfect family dog for a family that loves to relax and sit outside having many backyard barbecue nights and morning coffee in the rocking chairs. I could see Xena happily sitting outside with you watching you garden and water the flowers. Xena would really be happy observing anything as long as she gets to lay down. She’s hilarious. But don’t think she’s all naps— Xena enjoys a good trip to the local park where she can watch the kids play and get her exercise in. The best part about going to the park is obviously all the compliments that she receives. “Oh she’s so beautiful!” “What’s her name? She’s gorgeous!” “Xena you are so calm!” Etc. Xena is extremely dog friendly living with four other foster dogs. She gets along well with everyone. she loves to do her own thing at the end of the day. If the other doggies have zoomies, she’ll happily watch them and cheer them on. She greets everyone with a gentle sniff and then she’s on her way to go say hi to the next doggie friend. We think that Xena could fit into really any chill pack because she gets along well with both male and females. Xena’s perfect partner? A chill older pup like herself who enjoys movie nights and couch cuddle puddles. Xena would love a backyard, but one is not required. She is easy as pie on leash and she would love to go on a walk around the apartment complex if that’s what she needed. I could totally see her happily, watching everyone from a balcony taking in the world around her. Her larger size may make her more of a candidate for a house with the backyard, especially because she’s not built for lots of exercise. Lol. We have not seen her with any kitty cats just yet, but we are happy to test her with whatever you may need. Just say the word! Does Xena sound like your girl?

Leo is here offering a rare opportunity as the sweetest, toy-loving, cat-tolerant, confident, athletic pint-sized power house boy. His size alone had us all in love then as we got to know him all we could say was “Oh man, he is such a cool dog!” We cannot guarantee breed or birthday with rescue dogs but Leo is bringing so many qualities and the looks of a mid-size Malinois mix. I think he is trying to prove that great things really do come in smaller packages! Estimated to be about 1 years old and weighing in at a perfectly portable 31 lbs! You read that right, hes tiny! Leo offers all the brilliance, athleticism, and heart of a full-size Malinois, just in a compact frame. What a dream, a “fun-size” working dog with drive and loyalty, but much easier to fit on your couch. Take a look for yourself, you'll see what I mean- https://youtu.be/mVz--MTGm5w Leo is so fortunate and is being fostered in a multi-dog home with an experienced foster which means, Leo basically comes pre-programed with the “Good-Boy” Package. House and crate trained, good house manners, well-socialized, seriously it's a pretty sweet package- plus someone who is familiar with him and can answer any questions you might have about him. My favorite thing about Leo is just how social, people-loving band affectionate it. We see a lot of dogs with a high drive and they don’t often melt for attention, Leo though understands that you can work hard and love hard, you don’t have to pick just one. He is curious, affectionate, and thrives on engagement, whether it’s training time, adventure time, or playtime. My next favorite thing is Leo+ a toy! Give him a toy and you’ll immediately see him light up and his inner puppy come out, complete with 110% play shaking the toy and bouncing around with the happiest tail wags. True to his Malinois roots, Leo is a smart, food-motivated learner who responds beautifully to structure and consistency. He has great basic leash skills and continues to perfect walking alongside you with ease, and improving every day. Because he’s both eager to please and athletic, he would excel in training, agility, or any activity that lets him use his brain and body. Leo is dog social and thrives with balanced, confident dog companions though he would be a perfect solo dog in a home where he gets plenty of exercise and engagement, aka- attention. Leo is cat-tolerant with a strong curiosity and playfulness so a dog savvy cat and slow introductions will be key if he lives with feline friends. Apartments are not exactly his style, he would love a yard but could adapt to apartment life with an active adopter ready to channel his energy into fun and structure outside of the apartment life. If you’ve been dreaming of a compact adventure buddy who’s equal parts smarts and heart, Leo is here, ready and waiting for you. The perfect blend of a love for life and loyal affection, this little love-joy is ready to take on the world right by your side. Ready to welcome this amazing, one-of-a-kind friend into your life?
