Once again, the sweet little Frenchie, Sophie, is looking for a foster home. She is approximately 10 years old, and a super sweet, cuddly girl. She loves to burrow under blankets in a bed, and she is a very relaxed personality. And as before, she is still adorable! 😊

We had found Sophie a foster home a short while ago, but we discovered in the foster home that she is not completely housebroken. The foster didn't have the time or interest in potty training her, so she is again looking for a foster home... only this time, we know that she needs to go to a home with somebody who has the time and patience to consistently work on her house training skills.

In exchange, you'll be helping a very sweet girl gain the tools to find her forever home. 

Please DM if you live in local Portland Metro area and have the time and patience Sophie needs.

Hello!

You may have heard about the Puppy mill bust that happened in Central Oregon in September. There were 47 poodles seized in terrible condition. They were filthy, matted and emaciated.

The shelter in Central Oregon has adopted out many of the dogs, but they are still overwhelmed and their management has reached out to see if we can assist. 

So, we are looking for foster homes in the Portland metro area who have securely fenced yards and the time and patience to rehabilitate one (or two) of these dogs. They are very friendly with other dogs. They are all underweight. Most are understandably nervous, and they are all intact.  We will, of course be spaying and neutering them. 

The dogs are mostly middle-aged, between two years and eight years old. Two are under one year and one is ten years old. 

Please SHARE and DM if you think you can help us by fostering one of these sad but deserving dogs. They all need a brand new, clean start, with fresh air and exercise, and above all, to know someone cares about them and not just their ability to produce income. They are not a commodity!

We have included pictures of 9 of the dogs. All of them have been groomed, but some of the pictures are their intake pictures so they are from before they were groomed.

We have also included three pictures of the horrific conditions they were living in 💔.

Thank you!

Hello!

We are looking for a foster home for this sweet little almost 10 year-old female French bulldog, Sophie. She is really struggling at the county shelter and needs to get out and into a foster home asap.

Sophie is very friendly and sweet with people. She does well with other small dogs with chill personalities. She is not fond of big dogs or probably dogs who are hyper. She is good with cats!

Please SHARE and let us know if you are interested in fostering this sweet girl. Local Portland metro area only please.

Thank you!!

The puppies are 9 weeks old today! We're waiting for results from their dna test, but we know they're at least German Shepherd and Australian Shepherd... the rest is anyone's guess. 

One thing is for sure...they're 100% adorable!! 😍

Thank you so much for sharing everyone. Sweet girl is going into a foster home tomorrow. We'll keep you posted on any developments. ❤️🐾❤️

Hello!

We are pretty sure (90/10) this cute little abandoned cat is going to be a mama soon. She is currently living outside and some very kind neighbor people (who have three indoor girl kitties already) are feeding her so she is sticking around. Buuuuut, winter weather is coming and it will not be ideal for a mama and babies.

This little one seems pretty young. She is very sweet and purrs loudly. She is very social (once she trusts you). And she has the most adorable permanently curled tail (see pic).

Please SHARE, and help us get this girl somewhere safe so she can have her kittens in a warm and loving environment. She'll need a private room where she won't feel threatened. And of course, we'll be spaying her after the kittens are all weaned.

It isn't as if we need more kittens in the world, but this is the plight of intact abandoned cats...

UPDATE!

We have found a new home for the Northern Blue Tongue Skink. Yay!! That leaves our Mud Turtle and bonded pair of guinea pig girls. Keep SHARING!!

Hey reptile and small animal peeps!

We're really hoping to find homes for these guys. They are tragic examples of irresponsible choices made by humans who fail to commit to care for them for their lifetimes. They are all in need of responsible people to love and care for them for their entire lives. 🤞💗🤞

First, is two very sweet, bonded young guinea pig girls. They were abandoned, and they were very shy at first but with regular handling they have warmed up and actually enjoy sitting in someone's lap.  If you've never heard an excited piggie when they have treats coming, it's a really special sound that tickles you and brings joy to your heart ❤️.

Next is an African Sideneck Turtle, also known as a Mud Turtle. This little guy lives and swims in a tank. He loves to bask under his lamp, and he definitely has his favorite foods. He's a very sweet, a bit shy boy. He was left behind in a college dormitory. 

Last, is a large Australian lizard called a Northern Blue Tongue Skink (their tongues are really blue!) These lizards are known for being calm and docile. They can grow to 18" to 24" and live 15-20 years. This one is approximately 6-8 years old. We're told he/she enjoys being held against a human's chest. 

Please SHARE and DM if you have any interest in providing a safe home for one (two in the case of the pigs), of these deserving critters.

Thank you!

The puppies are growing up!! Now 6 weeks old, they have had their first vaccinations and they are doing great! Oh, and did I mention they're adorable?

Next week we will run a DNA test. Mama Jupiter is definitely a shepherd mix, but we're not sure what with, and clearly by the one Puppy, there is Australian Shepherd in there somewhere. 😊

Mary and Mitch are doing great fostering them! 

Hope you enjoy these adorable pics ❤️

Just had to share this amazing transformation!

These two very senior Yorkie girls came to us matted and moppy. They had so severe of dental disease that one of them had already had her lower jaw disintegrate. We had dentals done on them and they had all of their teeth removed. 

They finally started feeling better, but they were still matted and moppy, until SERENITY MOBILE GROOMING SPA stepped in. Katie made the girls not just look fantastic, but they feel so much better. AND, she did it pro bono because the girls are rescues! ❤️

If you have a moppy dog, we highly recommend you try them out. Katie was so fast, and did such a great job. Our hero!! ❤️🐾❤️

Now check out these before and after pics! 😊

UPDATE:

We have found a foster home for the male, but we are still looking for someone for the female Frenchie. Please SHARE!!

For all you French Bulldog lovers, we are working on getting these two 9.5 year-old Frenchies out of the shelter and into foster homes. We are not looking for one foster home for both dogs. We are looking for two separate foster homes. 

The little female weighs 19lbs and is very sweet and playful. The male weighs 27 pounds and is also very sweet and playful.  We do not know how they are with cats, but they are both very calm with other dogs. 

Please SHARE and DM if you are interested. Local Portland metro area only please. 

Thank you!

Second Update:

We have not had any offers for fostering either of these two Shepherd boys. Please dig deep, and SHARE!

Update:

The bonded Shepherd mix girls from the shelter are being transferred to OHS. Our fingers are crossed that they get to stay together.

This leaves the 72lb GSD from the neglect case. His name is Moose, and he's a very nice dog. Good with people and other dogs. He is seven years old.

And now there is another male GSD who also needs to get out of the shelter ASAP. His name is Tucker. He weighs only 39lbs. He is a little over one year-old and he is very playful. He loves playing with other dogs. He is very stressed in the shelter kennels 😞.

These are both beautiful, sweet dogs who need someone to step up for them. Please SHARE and DM with interest. local Portland metro area only please.

Thank you!!

Hello everyone.

Well, today we're pleading the case for three sweet German Shepherd/Shepherd mixes from a neglect case.  It's two females and a male.  The two females are very bonded. The male might do okay without the females.

They need to get out of the shelter! 

All three dogs are 7 and 8 years old. Two of them weigh in the low to mid 70lbs, and one weighs 56lbs.  There are so many German Shepherds and mixes needing homes right now, and these guys being middle aged might make it harder for them to find a foster home, but hopefully people will remember there's a lot of love and calm companionship in middle aged dogs.

These three love toys, and they love leaning against their person/people for affection. One of the females is a little timid meeting a new dog, but it is short-lived, and then she wants to play. We do not know if the dogs are good with cats, but we are trying to find out if there were cats in the home they lived in. 

These three have had a really hard first half of their lives, and they really deserve to have a clean and happy second half of their life.

Please share and consider whether you might be able to help these deserving dogs out by providing a safe home environment for them.
Local Portland metro area only please.
