My personality

My story

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

Aberdeen Scottish Terrier Rescue is a registered 501(c)3
Web Site: www.aberdeenstr.com

***MUST SUBMIT APPLICATION before we will respond to email or phone inquiries. Thank You for your cooperation***
Please read listings fully to the end before applying for one of our beloved rescues.

WE ARE NOT A SHELTER; WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER RESCUE WITH FULL-TIME JOBS.
Please do not contact us to look at a dog. We will contact you once we have reviewed your completed application if we think your home might be a good fit. A reference check, phone interview, and home visit will be completed before meeting an adoptable dog.

We work quickly. Please do not submit an application until you are ready to bring a new furry family member home. Expect your references to be contacted shortly after submitting your application. We adopt out to homes around WA state & Oregon but require that you are present for the meet and greet in Newcastle, WA.

Our adoption fee is non-negotiable. The adoption fee is due on the day of adoption in the form of a check, Zelle, PayPal, if using PayPal the potential adopter will have to pay the fees & charges with PayPal.

Clint is the loveliest boy & what he endured was pure evil. How he survived this living hell we will never know? To think of what he has been through & yet he still loves human beings even after everything they have done to him. We cannot even begin to imagine what Clint witnessed & heard when he was at the slaughterhouse & how Clint ended up in a slaughterhouse for human consumption & yes you did read that correctly, we will never know? What we do know is, he was pulled out of there by our outstanding Chinese rescuer just in time. It’s absolutely soul destroying to think about the horrific situation he ended up in. Working with one of our truly devoted, dedicated & absolutely outstanding Chinese rescuers she rescued Clint & many others for us. Without this beloved rescuer going in & getting Clint out, his fate was a torturous death. She transferred Clint along with many other sweet souls & got well & they waited to come to the US. This is a very extremely expensive situation but we believe every sweet soul such as Clint & his friends deserves to be loved & cherished & given the chance to have a wonderful life.
Now Clint is looking for a special family to cherish him & be patient with him & remember what this beautiful soul has been through & a family that meets all his needs.

Clint was bought back to the USA where he is now a US citizen & is so happy to be here & can’t wait to find his new loving devoted forever home.

Talk about one of the easiest boys ever, you don’t even know he is there except when it’s time to eat, you know he is there with such enthusiasm.
He can be found lounging on the couch with his other foster siblings & will even sometimes want to sleep on the couch. We cannot stress enough how lovely Clinty as his foster mum & dad call him, deserves the most loving home.
This boy is so stunning inside & out & he has come along way since he arrived from China. The reality is he had to learn everything new here. He is so forgiving. He just wants you to love him & he will love you back. He adores being hugged & held because the reality is we are the first real people in his life to show him such true love & affection. He also enjoys being picked up.
He adores his foster mum & dad now as they have shown him normalcy & love. He comes when you call him & enjoys going outside & will go to the door when he wants to go out.

In his foster home he eats a clean diet meaning, raw fruits, vegetables, proteins, grains & different supplements. He is obsessed with bulky sticks, collagen sticks & treats. He is fed based upon The Forever Dog.
Clint is a good little walker on his harness & leash. Clint is a rescue & will need patience, time & understanding. Clint adores being pampered & doesn’t want you to stop when brushing him, cleaning his eyes, grooming him, he loves it all. He also does extremely well being touched in general & adores receiving love.

Having toys & a warm bed was all new to Clint & we have been excited to change his world with the introduction of toys & lots of love & affection & a loving environment. He is quite a free spirit because he does enjoy going off & doing his own thing or then sometimes he can be found laying with his foster siblings.
Clint has learnt to ride in the car & does well in the car & enjoys a good car ride. He is such an easy & sweet going, loving little lad. With Clint we are only looking for a crate free home for this lovely little lad only. Please do not apply with the intent to crate this boy. We are also looking for a forever home for Clint where someone is home during the day or he can go with his people wherever possibly he can go with them.
Did we mention this boy loves a good outfit too.
Clint is looking for a forever home who will cherish him & love him as he should be loved & be very patient with him & understanding.

Clint has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes & he is currently with other dogs & enjoys their company. He can be found at times snuggled up to his foster siblings. But he could be the only dog in the home if he got all the attention. A fully fenced backyard is mandatory for Clint new forever home.
He will randomly go outside & sun himself but does not like to stay out there for too long.

Clint is now roughly 19 lbs & is 5 years old & a male miniture poodle & what he is mixed with we are not sure? He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on his shots including DHLPP, Bordatella, rabies & dewormed. Clint had a dental scale & polish & dental x-rays.

We have spent far more on Clint with bringing him to the US with his travel airfare costs, $2200 alone, bringing him into Seattle, without anything else than his adoption fee comes close to covering.

Clint has not been around cats since being in the rescue but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals. We have not had Barry with small children so we do not recommend children, but it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & animals. He has been around older teenage girls & does well with them & loves them.

We were not there when Clint was conceived so we do not know who his parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think his breed is.

As with all of our rescues & Clint’s friends he will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Clint potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond.

We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying.

Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Clint & going through our process and have read his listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on & remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit using Zoom to covid & followed by a meet and greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Clint who understands his needs & that meet all the requirements for this lovely little lad.
Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately.

Clint has an adoption fee of $1250 & is ready for his truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what he has been through.
