Demure, Mindful, Adorable!
Meet Margo Chester! Margo Chester is in a foster home in Spokane, WA and can be transported to your area (see information below in the “Adopting from Path of Hope Rescue” section).
Born on October 14, 2024, sweet Margo Chester is a young black, brown and tan colored Australian kelpie mix puppy with darker facial markings. We estimate she will be a medium size dog when grown. Margo Chester is part of the Christmas Vacation litter, and she traveled with her mom and seven siblings from the Bi-Stone Rescue in Mexia, Texas to find new homes in the PNW area. We are currently taking applications for Margo Chester, and she will be able to go home with an adopter after her spay surgery in mid-December.
Gentle and affectionate, Margo Chester won’t be the first puppy in the litter to greet new people or animals. Rather than push her way through the scrum of siblings rushing at everything, she waits for her chance to explore new guests with the most attention to detail. Once Margo Chester has conducted her assessment, she settles in for snuggles and seeks to be the center of your attention. Less rambunctious than some of her littermates and the second smallest of eight, she eschews rough play in favor of chewing on her toys (and whatever else is in her vicinity; she is a very young puppy, after all). She’s very demure, very mindful, and absolutely adorable.
Margo Chester is a very young puppy and is settling into a foster home with her mother and siblings. When old enough, she will begin potty, leash, and obedience training. We will be learning more about Margo Chester in the coming days, so please check back for more information. In the meantime, Margo Chester is spending her days getting lots of cuddles, playtime, love, and new adventures with her foster family. Margo Chester is growing into a healthy, active, affectionate pup ready for her new home.
Margo Chester’s ideal home? She seeks someone to love who will love her in return and will ensure she learns the skills that will make her a happy and well-rounded dog. Margo Chester would do well in a home with kids, dogs, and cats; lots of cuddles, play, and activity would make her the happiest of pups. Does this sound like your home?

Adopting from Path of Hope Rescue
- Our adoption process sets us apart. We specialize in learning about you and your family to find just the right fit for you. Our Matchmakers are not only good at what they do; they will also guide you through the entire process.
- Our Minimum Adoption Donation is $550 for puppies under a year and $450 for dogs a year and older. We are a WA state registered non-profit and rely heavily on adoption donations to cover the expenses associated with saving lives. Our dogs are spayed/neutered prior to adoption; microchipped with free lifetime registration; and up to date on DAPP, Bordetella, and Rabies vaccinations (when age appropriate) and deworming and heartworm treatment/prevention. Adopters can also earn a $100 training refund if they attend (6) hours of any in person training course.
- Long Distance adopters (one hour or more from Spokane) may choose to travel to Spokane to pick up their dog or use our monthly transport option, Puppy Delivery Express, for an additional delivery donation of $250. Puppy Delivery Express currently delivers dogs throughout Washington and to parts of Montana, Idaho, and Oregon.
About Path of Hope Rescue
- At Path of Hope Rescue, our goal is to make EVERY DOG. WANTED. Our two employees and army of volunteers focus on transporting pregnant dogs and puppies from Texas, the number one kill state in America. The dogs we rescue are in poor living conditions and on euthanasia lists in shelters that are inundated with unwanted animals. We want to give these dogs a chance and bring them to the Pacific Northwest to find adoptive, loving homes.
- We are 100% foster based; our dogs are fostered in loving homes where they are house and crate trained and learn basic obedience and leash skills. Dogs experience socialization opportunities with people, places, and other animals, and they receive the attention required to become well-rounded, healthy, and affectionate dogs that they would not otherwise receive in a shelter environment.
- Our commitment does not end when the dog is adopted. Path of Hope offers post adoption owner support including information on making the dog’s transition to your home a smooth one; recommendations for Preferred Trainers; advice on pet behavior and wellness topics; Facebook litter groups to keep in touch with fellow adopters; and invitations to local rescue hosted events.
