Name: Junebug Evelyn Age & Breed: 4-year-old Cattle Dog / Herding Breed Mix Junebug Evelyn is an incredibly smart, alert, and striking 4-year-old herding mix. She has a ton of natural athletic capability, a strong desire to work, and a very intense herding instinct. Because she is highly intelligent, she needs a job to do or an active owner who can channel her focus into agility, training, or fetch. She is fiercely loyal to her main person and has a lot of love to give to the right handler. Due to her strong herding instincts and tendency to get nippy or overstimulated around high energy, Junebug requires a strictly adult-only, kid-free home. She would thrive with someone who understands herding or working breeds (like Heelers or Kelpies) and knows how to give them clear boundaries and mental stimulation. She needs to go to a home where she can transition to being a true indoor companion and be the center of attention. Best as the only pet.

The result is a dog that is both affectionate and highly engaged with the people they love. These dogs thrive with regular physical exercise, mental stimulation, and positive reinforcement training.

Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Many rescue puppies and young dogs come from uncertain beginnings and may not have had structure, socialization, or training before arriving at rescue. Even at 8 months old, Simba is still learning and developing emotionally and socially. Young dogs are not automatically trained simply because they are older puppies. The rescue environment itself also does not always allow for extensive one-on-one training. While we work hard to provide safety, structure, and socialization, adopters should expect to continue training and guidance after adoption. Adopting a young dog means being prepared for: Potty training reinforcement and accidents Teething and chewing behaviors Leash training and obedience work Jumping and playful puppy behavior Continued socialization and confidence-building Daily exercise, structure, and supervision Routine veterinary care and vaccine boosters Financial commitment throughout the dog’s lifetime Simba will benefit from: Positive reinforcement training Daily structure and routine Continued socialization and exposure Exercise and mental stimulation Patience, consistency, and supervision Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 days to decompress 3 weeks to learn your routine 3 months to fully feel at home With patience, guidance, and commitment, dogs like Simba blossom into deeply loyal lifelong companions. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Owning a dog is a lifelong commitment that includes training, daily exercise, companionship, routine veterinary care, financial responsibility, and emotional commitment throughout every stage of life. Simba will need: Daily walks, exercise, and interaction Continued training and guidance Routine veterinary visits and future vaccine boosters Preventative care including flea, tick, and heartworm prevention Proper nutrition and weight management Mental stimulation and enrichment A safe, stable, indoor living environment Because Simba is still a young dog, consistency and structure are especially important in helping her mature into a confident and well-balanced adult dog. Simba is an indoor family dog and is not to be chained or left outside.

BEST WAY TO INQUIRE, EMAIL CONTACT@BAMMRESCUEPDX.ORG Ceasar is a 15mth old altered male kelpie mix Ceasar Hey, I’m Ceasar. I’ll be real with you — I’m still figuring this whole “new people” thing out. Meeting strangers makes me nervous, and if I feel cornered, I might snap. But here’s the thing: once I get to know you and trust you, my softer side comes out, and I can relax and be myself. The good news? I get along with dogs way easier than I do with people! They help me feel comfortable and confident. With patience, training, and someone willing to go slow, I know I can keep improving just like I did with my foster. If you’re the type of person who believes in second chances and helping an underdog shine, I’d love to be your project pup and, eventually, your best friend. ##2498991##
