Story
Lexi is a must meet fur baby. long-term foster needs forever home. About Lexi 40 lbs, 19 mo, fully grown . energetic, loves 2 run, chase balls & sticks. Very smart funny girl. Off leash and kennel trained. Loves rides, going to stores to get love from everyone she passes. She loves her toys and likes to play tricks on her human. Lexi is apprehensive in the beginning about new dogs. It takes her a sec to warm up but once she does she is good. She works best with male dogs, as she is an Alfa female. She can take up a whole bed, and loves to help with whatever you are doing. She thinks everything is a game. She is very food driven and a Very smart girl. And wants to be where you are. Apartment living not ideal as she has always had a yard. She has always had someone at home. She needs to run every day. Unfortunately my other dog sustained an injury and requires. Extra care and can't give baby girl the time she needs bc of that we love her very much but must do what is best for Lexi.

Story
Willa is about 2-years old and was abandoned in our Gresham neighborhood in Sept. 2024. Neighbors took care of her hoping that her owner would come back, but when we were about to call animal services, I volunteered to temporarily take her in. I'm a retiree with 2 old adopted/rescue dogs, and Willa transitioned easily into our quiet home. She started out shy but quickly showed everyone her athleticism, keen intelligence, and spirited energy. She tries to get the older male lab to play with her, but now her favorite thing is going to the dog park where she gets to play with other young pups like her, and she's learning about doggie hierarchy. I think Willa will do best in a home where she can get one-on-one attention from someone who knows how to work with dogs and has an active lifestyle.

Story
Charmed is an incredibly affectionate and cuddly dog who loves to be as close as possible to his person&he truly thinks he is a lapdog! I’ve had him since he was a puppy and I was 16 now I’m 22 I’m in a studio apartment and full time college student and he deserves a bigger place and more time this is a hard thing to do but he deserves the world and more: Charmed thrives on companionship and doesnt like being alone. He may bark when someone leaves but responds well to a simple goodbye.Nervous Around New People: He may be hesitant at first, but with a slow introduction&allowing him to sniff a hand he warms up quickly and becomes excited to interact doesn’t mind other dogs and has never instigated any altercations. If another dog is aggressive, he prefers to avoid conflict rather than engage. However, he does have a habit of humping. Sensitive to Noise & loud Surprises: Loud noises can startle him, and if he is on a walk, he may want to head home if he gets scared.
