Story

Animal Information: Max is an almost 9month old Australian Shepherd mix puppy currently. Max was confiscated after being found with multiple broken ribs from a suspected animal abuse case. Even with this rough start, Max appears to be a pretty normal puppy. He is a bit scared of loud noises. We are so happy to be bringing Max to the Seattle area in search of his forever family. Foster Profile: Max has been part of our family for the past four months, and he has been an absolute joy to foster. He's the kind of dog who settles in quickly, loves his people, and would make a wonderful addition to almost any home. We welcomed Max when he was about 3 months old, and he immediately became a full member of our two-dog household. He gets along wonderfully with our resident dogs and enjoys being part of the pack. Like any young pup, Max is curious and enjoys exploring, but he also has an easygoing personality that makes him a pleasure to have around. For such a young dog, Max has excellent house manners. He is fully potty trained and hasn't had a single accident in the house in over five months. He's comfortable in his crate and can happily relax for a few hours with a favorite bone while you're away. Max walks nicely on leash, has good recall, and naturally likes to stay close to his people. While he still has playful puppy moments, he's surprisingly calm and enjoys spending much of the day relaxing. A daily walk and some playtime seem to suit him just fine—he doesn't appear to be a dog who needs endless exercise to be happy. One of our favorite things about Max is his affectionate morning routine. He loves to wake us up with sweet puppy kisses, and while we enjoy our morning coffee, he'll happily curl up beside us, soaking up all the pets and snuggles he can get. It's the perfect way to start the day and a wonderful glimpse into what a loving companion he is. Max has that rare "off switch" everyone hopes for in a young dog, he enjoys his playtime but is just as happy to settle in and relax with his family. We think Max would thrive with a family or a single adopter looking for a loyal, easygoing companion. He would do well in a home with teenage children and would likely fit in with other friendly dogs, as he's done so well with ours. Max is truly a special pup with a wonderful balance of playful, affectionate, and relaxed. He's the kind of dog who will happily join you on a walk, then come home and spend the afternoon by your side. We can't wait for him to find the loving forever home he deserves. Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $575 which includes spay/neuter (on contract, if applicable), core vaccinations Rabies and DPPV per AVMA standards, any indicated preventative care, microchip with lifetime registration, and recent health check with a veterinarian. Adoption fee may be tax deductible as Dog Gone Seattle is a 501c3 organization (ID 81-5101166). Apply Online: www.doggoneseattle.org/adoption-application Animal History: This dog was transferred from San Bernadino Animal Control, in partnership with ARF our rescue partner in San Bernadino, CA. He was transferred via START, arriving to foster care on 2/5/2026 and available for adoption in the greater Seattle area once evaluated in foster care.September 4, 2026, 4:05 pm

Story

Hay Dude Equine Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Texas. All of our dogs live in foster homes in TX and are transported to their new states once adopted. All adopters must be 21+. Applications can be found at haydudeequine.org. Meet Atlas! Atlas is a 2-year-old, 20-pound purebred Miniature Australian Shepherd with a big personality and an even bigger heart! This handsome little guy is looking for a special forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and truly understood. Atlas is a dog-friendly guy who absolutely loves playing with other dogs. Having a canine companion in his forever home could be a wonderful fit for him! He is also good with cats—as long as they don’t run. If a cat takes off, Atlas’s herding instincts kick in and he may give chase. Atlas is potty trained and leash trained, making him a great companion for someone ready to continue helping him thrive. He loves his squeaky toys, enjoys playtime with his dog friends, and knows that sitting politely can earn him one of his favorite things: treats! But perhaps Atlas’s favorite thing of all is getting affection. Once he trusts you, he absolutely loves being petted. In fact, Atlas has his own adorable way of asking for attention—he’ll throw himself onto his back, paws over his face, and essentially say, “Okay, human... belly rubs, please!” Because of his rescue past, Atlas does have some boundaries that his forever family will need to respect. He is not a good match for a home with children, and he can be a little wary of some men. He will need patient people who understand that trust takes time and who are willing to let him build confidence at his own pace. Atlas may have had a difficult beginning, but he is ready for a new chapter—one filled with squeaky toys, doggy playdates, tasty treats, belly rubs, and a family who will love him for exactly who he is. If you’re looking for a small, smart, playful Aussie with a goofy personality and a huge capacity for love, Atlas may be your guy!

Mochi

Australian Shepherd

Details

Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Mochi will be 6 yrs old in September. He currently lives in a home with 2 other dogs. I believe he would be best in a home where he is the only dog/animal as he can get possesive of his belongings. Also a home with adults only or home with older children. Mochi needs structure & an owner who is confident and dominant.He did a 6 week board in train last fall so knows many basic commands, really good on a leash, potty and kennel trained.Hes very affectionate, has a huge sassy personality, very quirky, squeaky toy lover & is very food and praise motivated. He is a herding dog breed so someone who is able to get his energy out on a consistant basis is a must. He would do best with a home with a yard but still does great in an apartment if he has outlets to get his energy out.

Story

Animal Information: Venus is a female German Shepherd/Malinois mix. Venus is the roman goddess of love. She was found as a stray with her mom and 9 siblings. She had been at the Devore animal shelter for 2 weeks and was on the euth list due to space. Thanks to a Seattle area foster stepping up to take the family in, they were all saved. We will share more about Venus her mom and siblings as they settle in. Foster Profile: Say hello to Venus, our sweet 6 month old Malinois/Shepherd mix foster pup. If you’re looking for a gorgeous, loyal, and incredibly smart best friend, Venus might be your girl. She is very connected to her people, eager to learn, and already knows sit, down, shake, spin, and place (mat). She is currently working on roll over. She is very food motivated and thrives with guidance and consistency. Venus does best in a calm, predictable environment. When things get too busy, she can feel overwhelmed, but she’s learning to manage her impulses and settle. She’s dog-friendly, adventurous, and a confident pup. She is potty trained and crate trained, although she prefers not to be crated when people are home. She’d much rather be part of the action. Venus isn’t very snuggly and is still a very mouthy puppy. With her sharp teeth, she may nip while learning boundaries, so any home with kids should be comfortable with typical puppy behavior. She is currently fostered in our home with young kids and does best with close supervision with our younger one. Older kids may be better suited to handling her. She would thrive with an active person or family—think hiking, beach days, and maybe even agility in the future. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who brings fun, beauty, heart, and brains, Venus is ready to meet you. (Home with securely fenced yard and breed experience preferred.) We will not be considering apartments for Venus. Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $575 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations Rabies and DPPV per AVMA standards, any indicated preventative care, heartworm test, microchip with lifetime registration, and recent health check with a veterinarian.

Story

Animal Profile: Rusty is a 1.8 year Aussie/Cattle dog mix dogs who joined us via our TX partner Saving Shelter Strays. She was found walking down the street in an area with no houses close by and no one came to the shelter to claim her. Foster Update: Rusty is a bright, beautiful, and loving puppy. She is so smart and curious. The outdoors is her favorite place, even when she's tired, she just wants to take a nap out in the yard (unless it's raining, then she's perfectly happy to be indoors). She is pretty shy and is working on her confidence outside of her foster home/yard, but she's made great strides, especially when she realized there are stores specifically for dogs that will give her treats when she goes in! She also loves other dogs and playing with her foster brothers. She's very smart and can get bored easily, but she learns very quickly, and she takes cues from her foster brothers to figure out what she should be doing. We are looking for a home with a fenced yard that she can explore and relax in, a canine companion as well as a family with breed and shy dog experience to help continue her confidence building We are not considering apartments for her at this time. Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $575 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations per AVMA standards, heartworm test if applicable, microchip with registration, and health certificate. Your adoption fee may be tax deductible as DGS is a 501c3 organization. All adoption fees go toward the care of all dogs in our rescue.

Story

Luna is 6 years old and is a great dog. She's extremely smart, goofy, and is a great walker on and off leash. It's been a while but she's crate trained. We're looking to rehome because despite training for the last year she has been really anxious since our toddler started crawling. She isn't happy and her living situation is not fair for her because there's nothing we can remove from the situation to improve if for her. We made the very hard decision to let her go to a family with older kids. We have another dog that is a senior, and Luna has been attached to her since we brought her home as a puppy. That said, when we've been at the dog park she's neutral with other dogs as long as they don't try to get physical with her. We haven't introduced her face to face with other dogs since we don't have other people in our lives with other dogs. She is not aggressive but she has become reactive since her anxiety started. I'm convinced once she can relax again and be happy that'll go away.

Story

Kylo is seriously the best dog ever. He’s got an amazingly chill temperament for an Aussie and is really chill. He’s great on walks and I walk him off leash most of the time. Loves outdoors, hikes, water etc. (he is pretty lazy and gets pretty pooped after like 3 miles). He’s generally great with other dogs when he meets them and has only been aggressive with other dogs around his food. (He will growl trying to protect it). We unfortunately have to rehome him because of our toddler. He just plays too rough with kids and we can’t risk him hurting her, other small kids, or future kids we will have. He tends to “heard” small kids which is his instinct, but that sometimes involves nipping at their ankles. I probably would not recommend him to anyone with young kids. Besides that he’s literally the perfect dog. We are SO sad to even be considering this but feel we have to.

Story

Sammy is a 10-month-old Australian Shepherd mix who made his way to the PNW from Oklahoma. He's the kind of dog people meet and immediately ask if he's available.Sammy is already potty trained and knows sit, shake, spin, wait, and "park it" (go into his crate). He picks up new commands remarkably fast and clearly wants to get it right, which is notable because he isn't food or treat motivated. He works for praise. Chicken is still his favorite thing on earth, for the record.Sammy is quiet. He rarely barks, has no separation anxiety, and has never tried to escape. He isn't a licker. He has shown zero aggression of any kind.Sammy is wonderfully affectionate. He'll happily cuddle on the couch, and if you'd rather he didn't, he'll go to his own bed when asked. He's great with adults and kids alike. He especially likes to make friends with people walking by his home, namely, the mailperson! He's spent his foster time around a 6-year-old and has been gentle.

Story

FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet this fluffy boy, Kiko! He is a 7-year-old, 50 LB Australian Shepherd mix who came to us from an overcrowded shelter in CA. Kiko is a sweet, energetic boy who loves to be outside exploring. He is active and would love a forever home that will exercise him daily and provide him an active lifestyle. He would also do best in a standalone home with a fenced yard to explore, preferably outside the city. Kiko has done well with other dogs in our care and would be a great additional dog in a home. He would also do fine as an only dog, soaking up all the love and attention. Kiko is a very strong boy, and will require adopters that are able to handle his strength. He is also incredibly smart and eager to learn, which will make training a blast! Kiko is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $400.

Story

Animal Profile: Buddy is a 4.5-year-old Doodle (1/2 Border Collie 1/2 Standard Poodle). He was purchased from a breeder prior to his owners having children. Buddy is a friendly but slightly anxious guy who has not adjusted well to having a toddler in the home. His family invested in a 4-week board and train with a local dog trainer in hopes that it would help Buddy feel more comfortable around small toddlers. Buddy completed his training; he has excellent house and leash manners, is house trained, crate trained; and knows the ‘place’ command. Unfortunately he was still too uncomfortable around the kids after training, and his family decided it was best to find him a new home. Buddy has been trained using balanced methods, including e collar for off leash reliability. Buddy does great at doggy daycare, but does have some resource guarding around food and select toys when it comes to other dogs. While he enjoys his dog friends, we think he’d be happiest as an only dog. Buddy has not lived with cats. Buddy is currently in foster care with a balanced trainer, and doing well. Foster Update: coming soon! Adoption Info: The adoption fee is $550 which includes his neuter, core vaccinations, DPPV, Bordetella, microchip, and recent health check with a veterinarian. Adoption fee may be tax deductible as DGS is a 501c3 organization. Apply Online: www.doggoneseattle.org/adoption-application September 4, 2026, 4:05 pm

Story

PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our application can be found at haydudeequine.org. Hi, I’m Dana! 🐾 I’m a happy 1-year-old Terrier mix (with a little scruffy terrier charm and herding dog energy) and I weigh about 40 pounds. I’ve got this cute black-and-white coat, a big smile, and the softest ears that flop when I get excited! I’m a sweet, playful, and gentle girl, though I can be a little shy when I first meet new people. Give me some time, patience, and kindness and I’ll quickly become your biggest fan. I get along really well with other dogs and would love to have a furry sibling to play with — it helps me feel more confident and brings out my silly, bouncy side! I’m already pretty smart and doing great with house training. I know how to use the dog door like a pro, and I’m eager to learn more. I’d thrive with a family who will keep teaching me new things, help me get better on the leash, and gently build my confidence in new situations. I’m looking for an active family that will take me on adventures, give me lots of playtime, and shower me with love and positive guidance. In return, I’ll give you my whole heart — endless loyalty, cuddles, and a lifetime of being your best little shadow and adventure buddy. If you’re ready for a sweet young dog who’s excited to grow and blossom with you, I’d love to come home and be your girl!
