Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🐾✨ Meet Fergie — Your All-Access Adventure Pass ✨🐾 Fergie is a 2-year-old Mini Aussie, weighing 34 pounds, and she’s basically a ball of energy wrapped in a drop-dead gorgeous chocolate, tan, and white coat. Seriously — this girl turns heads everywhere she goes… and then zooms past them because she’s got places to be. 😄 She’s smart, athletic, and READY FOR ACTION, making her an amazing candidate for agility, obedience, hiking, running, or anything that lets her stretch those legs and use that brilliant Aussie brain. Fergie walks beautifully on and off leash, hops into the car like a pro, and is always up for the next adventure — whether that’s a weekend road trip or a quick trip to grab coffee. Fergie is: ✅ House trained ✅ Spayed & up-to-date on vaccines ✅ Great with dogs ✅ Good with kids ✅ Energetic, athletic, and eager to learn ✅ A total superstar with “good dog” energy Cats are currently unknown, but with her smarts and training ability, proper introductions could go a long way.

Morning walks? She’s in. Weekend hikes? Absolutely. Road trips? Shotgun. Folding laundry? She’ll supervise. And let’s talk about that coat — rich chocolate brown with tan and white markings that make her look like she walked straight out of a dog magazine. Beauty and brains? Yes, for sure! ✨ If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick, adventure buddy, and all-around awesome dog, Fergie checks every box.

Story
You don’t even need to say it…we’re already thinking the same thing! Blaze Glory is a one of a kind heart stealer with the kind of looks that stop people in their tracks. Those soft, fluffy ears looks like they were specifically designed with a little extra fluff. Same thing with those eyes!! Pure magic and the type of eyes that make everyone jealous. This unique heartthrob is in a total league of his own. Watch his video and fall in love: https://youtu.be/3wW0yWjgtxo?si=5pNtUYbHsKTNpp4x Blaze Glory is believed to be an Aussie mix approximately 2 years old and currently weighs 40 lbs. The statement, “with rescue, it’s always a mystery” cannot be anymore true with this unique beauty. He’s a perfect blend of everything that matters. From those fluffy ears, petite frame, freckles on this face, to those striking blue eyes. He’s a perfect blend of everything that matters. He is very dog friendly and has made friends with all of the dogs we have introduced him to and is currently being fostered in a home with 4 other dogs as well. Blaze loves to play, enjoys a fun wrestling match, is always up for a game of chase, and also appreciates those relaxing moments as well. He has a puppy-like play style that is bouncy, a little mouthy, and is always game for a round of chase. Blaze enjoys those relaxing moments as well, sunbathing on a nice sunny day, and exploring the yard with his doggy pals. In a home he would do best with a doggy friend that enjoys playing, is tolerant of a more mouthy type play, will enjoy a game of tag you're it, and will also appreciate couch snuggles together. Blaze would also do great as you're one and only. He does not need the company of another dog to help her feel comfortable or open up, he is a total love bug once he gets his bearings and would love being the center of your attention. Blaze has also been around our house cat and did great around him. Blaze was playful with Biggie just the way he was playful with his doggy friends. Bouncy, a little mouthy, and enjoyed playing a game of chase. Biggie was not bothered by his playful personality either and joined him in play time as well. So if you have a cat that likes dogs and won't be bothered by his playfulness, they will be the best of friends. Blaze wasn’t all play all the time either with Biggie, they both took breaks and hang out with each other peacefully as well. Blaze is currently also being fostered in a home with cats but his foster’s cats rarely come out, almost as if they aren’t really there. If you have an active cat and are interested in Blaze, we can arrange for him to have a sleepover with a more active cat in the home. Just let us know! There are a lot of different home environments that we can see Blaze thrive in! He has the potential to live his best life in an apartment/condo with proper exercise and socialization. He also would thrive in a home with a backyard where he can stretch his legs and get all the zoomies his little heart desires. Whether he is in a home with a backyard or an apartment, Blaze would love to be with a semi active family that will play with him, take him on adventures, or even give him some mind puzzles. He would love that too as he loves treats and is so smart! He already knows how to sit, is doing great at polishing his leash skills, and is very eager to please. So anything additional training you want to do with Blaze will be a breeze and enjoyable for you both. He is crate and potty trained too, though on occasion he does like when you toss a treat in his kennel for a little extra incentive. In new environments and with new people, he can be a little shy but trust us when we say, it does not take long for him to be climbing in your lap wanting to give you all the kisses. If you work from home, Blaze will be great company to have! Not to say that you won't get distracted because this little fella will without a doubt make you take work breaks and give him some love. All other times, he’ll be playing with a toy or taking a nap. His foster mom works from home and he is a great work from home buddy to have. We are willing to test Blaze Glory with anything you need to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
Meet Rainy 🌧️ | 5-Month-Old Australian Shepherd Mix (aka “The Worm”) If love could wiggle, it would look exactly like Rainy. Rainy is a 5-month-old Australian Shepherd mix who has earned the affectionate nickname “the worm” — not because she’s sneaky, but because when she loves you, she worms her entire body toward you. Belly low, tail wagging, whole body in motion, Rainy greets the world with pure devotion and an open heart. She is incredibly loving and deeply submissive, always eager to please and happiest when she’s close to her people. Sometimes her excitement gets the best of her — she’s been known to do a little happy piddle when she just can’t contain how thrilled she is to see you. It’s not bad manners, it’s just a baby dog with a heart too big for her body. Rainy loves to play and explore, but her favorite place will always be right by your side. Whether you’re walking from room to room or settling in for quiet time, she wants to be included in every moment. She’s the kind of pup who makes you feel chosen. With other animals, Rainy is still learning. New friends can make her unsure at first, but she’s doing the important work of discovering her confidence and learning how to set healthy boundaries. With continued socialization, patience, and guidance, she’s only going to grow into a well-rounded, emotionally intelligent dog. Rainy is still very much a puppy — sweet, impressionable, and full of potential. She’s looking for a home that will nurture her confidence, laugh at her wiggles, and help her grow into the incredible companion she’s meant to be. If you’re ready for unconditional love, constant companionship, and a dog who will happily follow you anywhere (possibly wiggling the whole way)… Rainy is waiting for you. 🐾💕 If you think you would be my perfect forever home, my friends would love to hear from you!  Contact them at: info@handsnpawswa.org  Health & Safety  All our animals are: Microchipped Up to date on vaccines Dewormed and flea treated Spayed/neutered and given rabies shots (if age appropriate) FELV/FIV testing available upon request (at adopter’s expense)  Where to Find Me  Our pets are located in foster homes, Hands 'N Paws Othello Shelter, or at PetSmart in Union Gap.  Adoption Process First come, first served unless a hold is placed Holds require a $25 non-refundable fee per pet or full adoption fee Holds last up to 7 days After 7 days, unclaimed pets and fees are considered donations  Adoption Fees  Listed under each pet’s photo on their biography page.
