My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Considering adopting? The first step is to complete our online Adoption Application at http://forgetmenotshelter.org/Application
Please do not call the shelter; do the application first.

Norway, about 1 1/2 years old, arrived as a stray, found wandering in a remote wooded area. No one ever came to claim this lovely, shy border collie mix, so now you have a golden opportunity to bring this girl home and show her all the joy in life!

She has a terrific, gentle disposition and enjoys other dogs, cats, and calm children. She warms up to new people slowly - she may have been yelled at or neglected in her prior life - and once she knows she's not in trouble and the people are nice to her, her tail starts wagging faster and faster. This girl is ready to become an amazing family companion, and would enjoy an active lifestyle.

Norway has lots to learn about how to dog, and with her intelligence and gentle nature, should train easily with positive training methods. Any sort of punitive training using pain or sternness would likely crush her blossoming spirit, so only gentle souls with patience and love need apply to invite Norway home. She could be a fun agility dog, or just a happy adventure companion.

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Norway is a suggested minimum of $125 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts.

Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!
