Story
He is a fantastic lovable family dog. He’s been nothing but wonderful to us, but we’ve just had a new baby and he did have a small incident while I was pregnant ( about 6 months ago) just a tiny nip on the finger of a friend in my car. He was just being protective, but we have to be cautious with a newborn. ☹️ he has a lot of energy as an Australian Shepherd, and should go to a place that he can run, he gets a bit anxious, has not been exposed to a lot of other people besides the family.

Story
  Meet Owen! Owen is a spirited and intelligent young working breed pup ready to find his forever home! At just 1 year old, Owen is a bundle of energy and enthusiasm, seeking an experienced owner who understands his needs and can provide him with the guidance and stimulation he craves. Owen is a training enthusiast's dream - his intelligence is evident in his quick learning and eagerness to please. His high energy levels mean he's always up for an adventure, whether it's hiking trails, going for runs, or engaging in mentally stimulating activities. Owen is a go-getter and thrives when he has a job to do, making him an ideal candidate for agility training, obedience competitions, or other challenging activities that harness his natural abilities. While Owen's exuberance is infectious, his energy is not for every household. He would do best in a home with an experienced owner who can provide consistent training, structure, and boundaries. Patience, positive reinforcement, and a firm yet gentle hand will help Owen reach his full potential. In addition to his love for activities, Owen is incredibly affectionate, loyal and forms strong bonds with his humans. He's a social butterfly with people and has enjoyed the company of other dogs after proper introductions. However, due to his exuberance, a home without small children would be most suitable for Owen.  A fenced yard where he can safely burn off his energy and engage in play would be a great bonus for this active pup. If you believe you're the perfect match for Owen, please reach out to our adoption team to learn more about this exceptional dog.  In the meantime, be sure to keep your eyes peeled on Instagram (@nwdogproject) for updates! If you would like to be considered as Owen's forever home, be sure to submit an adoption application on our website! Adoption fee includes - spay/neuter, microchip & chip registration, UTD vaccines, de-worming, flea treatment, heartworm testing.    ##1881592##

Story
Meet Elvis! He originally came into our care a few years ago, and sadly due to someunexpected circumstances with his adopter, Elvis has made his way back into our care. This handsome blue suede bully earned his moniker after the King of Rock n' Rolls famous lip curl.  And lucky for Elvis (and his future family), our vet confirmed that he has a cleft lip (not a cleft palate), so he gets to rock all the cuteness of his wonky, tooth-exposed smile, without any of the breathing or eating complications that come with a cleft palate!  We will be updating more on his personality and what he's looking for in a home as we learn a bit more about where he's at these days. Stay tuned! Elvis would do best in a home with...Cats : Nope! Dogs : Well-balanced females only, please!  Kiddos : Older kiddos (10+)! He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. To be considered as Elvis' forever home, be sure to submit an adoption application on our website! Follow us on Instagram (@nwdogproject) for updates!

Story
  Meet Sammi! Sammi is a young shepherd mix who spent 6 months at a southern CA shelter with no adoption interest. Sammi was a rockstar at the shelter and was regularly used to test the temperament of other dogs entering the shelter. We knew Sammi would make a wonderful family dog and planned to get her up to Oregon. Once Sammi was safe and in a foster home down in CA, awaiting transport to OR she began having seizures. After spending a few days at an emergency clinic with round the clock care and numerous diagnostics done, no root cause of her sudden seizure onset was determined. Fortunately her seizures were under control with medication and she was healthy and could travel to Oregon. Since arriving in Oregon, Sammi has settled in wonderfully. Sammi enjoys training and has started working with a trainer on her basic obedience. Sammi is crate trained, house trained and walks well on leash. Sammi has been in a foster home for multiple months and while she loves meeting new dogs and going on adventures she is a dog that struggles a bit with new trasitions. Thats means a new family would would need to be willing to go slow and have multiple meetups with her, before she would be comfortable integrating into a new home. Sammi's ideal home would be with another playful dog or two, would not have children and a family willing to go slow with her as she adjusts to her new surroundings and people. It is unknown how Sammi is with cats but she can be cat tested for serious adopters. The medication Sammi takes seems to be the right dosage to prevent seizures and she has adjusted well. She will require taking medication long term and adopters should be prepared to work with their veterinarian on management of this. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled on Instagram (@nwdogproject) for updates! If you would like to be considered as Sammi's forever home, be sure to submit an adoption application on our website! Cats : Dogs : Yep!  Kiddos : Nope Adoption fee includes - spay/neuter, microchip & chip registration, UTD vaccines, de-worming, flea treatment, heartworm testing.  ##2011048##

Story
  Meet Buddy! Buddy found himself in a facility that claimed to be a rescue but did not function to the standards that it should have and Buddy sat for 4.5 years in an outdoor concrete run with little interaction or daily comforts. All of that has changed for Buddy and while he now has things like a couch, soft beds, soft grass, daily walks in the woods, treats, cuddles, and gets to sleep indoors, what he has been through shows emotionally. Buddy is as gentle and sweet as they come but understandably shy, nervous and a little overwhelmed by his new world. Buddy has had a full medical work up and besides being overweight he is a healthy boy! He is a young senior and is looking for a quiet home with patient owners who will continue to help him gain confidence, gently push him to try new things, and would love a well balanced dog sibling to pal around with. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled on Instagram (@nwdogproject) for updates! If you would like to be considered as Buddy's forever home, be sure to submit an adoption application on our website at northwestdogproject.org ##2066537##
