🐾 Meet the Shepherd Siblings! 🐾

Looking for a happy, healthy, sweet as can be puppy who’s ready to learn everything about being a beloved family dog? These two 5 month old Shepherd mixes are ready to meet their people! ❤️

We have one handsome boy and one beautiful girl, and both are absolute sweethearts. They’re happy, friendly pups with wonderful temperaments and SO much potential. They’re at that perfect age where they’re ready to soak up everything you teach them and they’re going to make incredible companions for the lucky families who give them a chance. 🥰

They’re still learning the ropes of this whole “being a house dog” thing, but they’re catching on! They’re working on crate training and are already potty trained through a dog door. They’ll need continued guidance with all the usual puppy basics, but they’re eager, sweet, and ready to learn.

✨ Shepherd mixes
✨ One male & one female
✨ Sweet, happy personalities
✨ Working on crate training

Update…. Got it handled. Thanks everyone
Hi 👋👋👋
I have a dog that has an emergency. I can not share pics of him publicly yet. He is 14 40lbs Heeler neutered good with dogs and not cats. No small kids. Is there someone that can foster him!? Please 🙏🏼

Meet Squishy! 🐾❤️50lbs

If you’re looking for a dog with a big heart, goofy personality, and endless enthusiasm, Squishy is your guy! This handsome 1 year old German Shepherd mix is a happy-go-lucky, bouncy boy who greets every day like it’s the best day ever.

Squishy is a sweetheart through and through, but he hasn’t quite figured out that he’s not a lap sized puppy anymore! Because of his excitement and lack of size awareness, he’d do best in a home with older kids who won’t get accidentally bowled over during one of his happy dances.

This good boy is house trained, crate trained, and wonderfully quiet he’s not one to bark just to hear himself talk. He’s still learning his leash manners, so he’ll need a family willing to help him polish up his walking skills, but he’s eager to please and ready to learn.

We don’t know how Squishy does with cats, so a cat free home or slow, careful introductions would be best. What we do know is that he’s an affectionate, loving dog who is ready to find a family to call his own.

✨ Squishy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to start his next adventure. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a goofy grin and a heart of gold, Squishy can’t wait to meet you! Hdrescueoregon.com to fill out an app.

Meet Artemis!

At 1-2 years old, this spayed healer mix girlie is the perfect combination of fun, smart, energetic, and just a little bit spicy!

She’s a medium to high energy girl who loves to get out and do things, but thankfully, she comes equipped with a fantastic OFF SWITCH! Once shes had her fun, she knows how to settle down and hang out with her people.

She is house trained, walks well on a leash, and does great with other dogs. Shes playful, social, and ready for someone who wants a fun companion for adventures, walks, hikes, and all the good stuff!

Now, about that crate...lets just say shes not exactly writing it a five star review. She doesnt seem to be a big fan of being crated, so her new family will need to be willing to continue working with her on that.

She also has a little Heeler sass and knows what she wants! Because of that, she would likely do best with a less dominant female dog who isnt interested in competing for CEO of the household. She does well with other dogs, but a compatible personality will be important.

If youre looking for a fun loving, active girl with a big personality, a good off switch, and just enough sass to keep life interesting, this girl might be your perfect match!

She is 30lb and absolutely loves water. She is spayed and ready to find her forever home! Submit and application at Hdrescueoregon.com. $400 adoption fee.

COURTESY POST! For inquiries on Luna, please call the number below.
Luna (11 mo, 40 lbs)
Luna is a sweet, affectionate, energetic young dog looking for a home that can provide structure, consistency, and opportunities for engagement. Since joining our family, she has brought us a great deal of joy and affection, and we believe she will thrive in an environment better suited to her needs.

Luna does best with clear routines and a secure, well-fenced yard. She is highly alert to wildlife and moving animals, making our current rural setting with frequent wildlife activity challenging and risky for her. We believe she would be happiest in a paved neighborhood environment with fewer large wild animal distractions and predictable daily experiences.

She is an active dog who enjoys mental and physical enrichment and benefits from plenty of appropriate chew items, interactive toys, and structured exercise. Luna is eager, enthusiastic, and still learning some household manners, and she has great potential with continued guidance and training.

Luna enjoys human companionship and would do especially well with owners who are home often and can provide engagement, supervision, and a consistent schedule. She may do well as an only dog or with a confident, compatible canine companion.

We love Luna dearly and are committed to finding the right match for her. We believe that in a home with clear boundaries, a secure environment, and loving guidance, Luna will flourish and be a wonderful companion.

I am down to two of these shepherds. If someone will please step up and foster one I will bring the other in the house. Please I’m begging they need to be split up and socialized before they are straight feral and unadaptable.

Riot 40lbs and Tessa35lbs are great dogs! They really need to find a foster home so they can start learning things. Stuck pretty close but definitely need a fenced yard. He was better than she is with the chickens. They were both good with the donkey. They are 7 months old will be spayed/neutered as soon as I can get them on the schedule so need to stay in central Oregon till then. Really cool sweet dogs! Please message or email [email protected] if you can help.

🐾 Meet Cowboy! 🤠
3 month old Heeler Mix
Yeehaw! 🤠 Cowboy is one smart little Heeler dude who’s ready to ride straight into his forever home! ❤️

This little guy is crate trained and sleeps completely through the night because apparently Cowboy believes beauty sleep is important. 😂 He’s also making fantastic progress with potty training. If he has access to the great outdoors, he’ll stroll right out, take care of business, and come right back inside like the polite little gentleman he is. 👏🏼

And once that Oregon sunshine starts heating things up? Cowboy has made his position very clear: he is an indoor Heeler. 😂 AC, please and thank you! 🧊

Cowboy is a super smart boy who does a great job entertaining himself when his humans are busy. He’s definitely got that classic Heeler puppy brain — curious, observant, busy, and always ready to learn — but he’s been well socialized and is doing great with everyone.

🐶 Great with other dogs
🐱 Getting familiar with cats and doing well
👧 Good with kiddos
🏡 Crate trained
🌙 Sleeps through the night
💩 Making great progress with potty training
🧠 SUPER smart and eager to learn
❄️ Firm believer that AC is a basic human right

Cowboy is still just a baby, so his forever family should be ready for all the fun, chaos, training, and questionable puppy decisions that come with raising a Heeler. 😉 In return, you’ll get a ridiculously cute, smart, loyal little sidekick who is going to make an amazing adventure buddy.

Cowboy is saddling up and looking for his forever family! 🤠❤️HDRescueOregon.com to fill out an app to adopt. And hurry if you’re serious, he’s gonna be gone soon!
