Story
I took this sweet guy in a few months ago from a family who couldn’t keep him, and I’ve been working with him and training him since. He’s made great progress, but I’ve come to realize he needs more time and space than I can give him long-term. He’s a German Shepherd and Border Collie mix — highly intelligent, loyal, and driven. He’s a good dog with a ton of potential, but he needs a lot of attention and structure. He’d do best with someone who understands working breeds and can give him a job to do, whether that’s through training, daily challenges, or wide open space to run and explore. He can get along with other dogs, but I think he’d thrive most as the only dog in the home, where he can bond closely with his person and have clear boundaries. This dog needs an active lifestyle, ideally someone who’s outdoorsy, has a big yard or land, and is looking for a companion they can continue to work with and grow alongside.

Story
Meet sweet Sis, a member of the 3 Corpus Christi "Pipe Puppies" who survived being dug out of a drainage pipe! One of the 3 has been fostered to adopted (Buddy aka Murphy) by a SSDR volunteer! These beautiful puppies appear to be part Beagle but they are all "Texas Special"...RESCUED, the best kind of doggie! They are approximately 5-6 months old and will be medium sized dogs when grown. Both of the puppies must go to homes with other dogs as they are more confident when in the presence of other dogs. At SSDR we call this "dog-centric". They also like people and Sis is good with cats. Sis loves to bask in the sun, sleeps well in her crate at night and is partially potty-trained. Sis will need continued socialization, dog training and work on leash and is being fostered in E Portland with a family with kids and a SSDR alum dog! Please submit an application at Street Savvy Dog Rescue Street. Org and BE SURE TO FOLLOW UP WITH A TEXT TO 971-303-9415 once sent. #streetsavvydogrescuefosterprogram #sissy #streetsavvydogrescue #beagle #beaglepuppy #beaglelover #beaglesoftiktok #beaglelife #beaglesofinstagram #texas #texasspecial #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #rescuedogsofinstagram #foster #portlandoregon #fostercare #adoptdontshop #adoptashelterpet #adoptadog #adoption #adoptabledogs #adoptablepuppies #adoptable
