Mountain Cur puppies and dogs in Portland, Oregon

Cooper is a Mountain Cur mix (lab/pit/boxer) and is believed to have been born around January of 2017. We adopted him from OHS in August 2017. He loves to play fetch, go on walks and cuddle up on the couch. Over the last few years Cooper’s interaction with other dogs has become limited due to our growing family. He walks well on leash unless he comes across other dogs. At which point he will be on high alert and will crouch or stalk as he approaches other dogs and will bark/growl if the other dog reacts to him. With children (ages 1 and 3) in our small 800sqft house, Cooper has grown anxious. On Sunday 10/20 he bit our 3 year old resulting in upper lip stitches. Although we have theories as to what exactly happened, we did not see the incident, but suspect Cooper was provoked. He has not shown aggression towards any human and does not have food aggression. Cooper is a sweet, loving dog that would be best in a home without small kids.

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyvz97pzs6Q Moonlight is a beautiful young girl who appears to be a cur and heeler mix. She is about a year old and loves everyone she meets. She is great with dogs of all sizes and with cats. She loves water and running around the woods and just loves life. She would make a great adventure buddy for an individual or couple. She does well in a crate and on a leash. She is currently still in Oklahoma where she was rescued but she can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. She has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take her in or she will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue/reviews (copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tumwater, Tacoma, Tukwila, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Michigan (St Joseph) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) Vetting: spayed, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative) Adoption fee: $550 (includes the $250 cost of transport from Oklahoma and all vetting listed above) Adoption application (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://form.jotform.com/82677586784176 FAQs (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://docs.google.com/document/d/12eb_SRtk1AzaBl87UltcLJ24MjH9UhQm_LE77iWZEQA/edit?tab=t.0 Desiderata Rescue is Oklahoma Licensed Rescue #95

Meet Brando- the sweetest, cutest little puppy in the world. Brando is 100% snuggles, sunshine and good times, just a little puppy looking for his forever family. We think Brando is a German Shepherd, Catahoula mix, though he is a rescue, so exact age and breed are a mystery. He’s around five months old, and still has quite a few of his puppy teeth! He weighs in just under thirty pounds right now, but he’s still growing! Watch Brando here: https://youtu.be/cQb2ondiOqY Brando is your typical puppy, all about naps, snuggles, playtime and food! He loves treats, and he takes them so gently already! Brando shows tons of signs that he’ll be a good dog when he grows up. He’s not mouthy, he’s learning his leash skills quickly, and he’s great at checking in with his humans during play time. He calms down quickly when playtime is over, and then it’s straight to snuggles. He’s confident and affectionate, and will climb up on the couch with you for some love! Brando LOVES belly rubs. With other dogs, Brando is all play! He’s super friendly with other dogs and instant BFFs with anyone that will indulge him in a game of chase. Here at the rescue, we cat tested Brando. Brando was playful, but not reactive toward our house cat Tom. See his full cat test in his YouTube video. Our behavior team believes that Brando could live in a house with kitties, so long as another dog is present to teach him proper kitty-etiquete. Brando is still young so he will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. His new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy. When old enough, they will be perfect to go on walks and hikes or show off around your neighborhood. We are willing to test him with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen- just let us know. With any specific questions, please reach out to his adoption coordinator, whose email is linked below.

You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!

We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews: https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success. Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready.

We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond. Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet. The rescue’s hard costs alone for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,120. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast.

How often do you see a dog that is this striking? Well don’t just stare, let me introduce you! Her name is Isa and she can come across as a bit shy but Ill tell you, it is only because she is truly holding her best material for her biggest fans. Her best material is the sweetest kisses, goofy zoomies, and a silly playfulness that looks so good on her. We can’t say for sure of course but everything about her leads us to believe she is a Catahoula Leopard dog. Estimated to be 2 years old and weighing 48 lbs, she is a full-grown mid-size dog, which from experience I will say is prime snuggle size. If you know about the breed already you can skip ahead but if not, one of my favorite facts is that Catahoulas are the state dog of Louisiana so if you are a die hard LSU fan, this girl will wear your purple and gold with true pride. Beyond that they are independent and smart and loyal through and through. Isa’s perfect home is adaptable and we could see her thriving in a house with a yard to enjoy or an apartment. She does prefer the quiet life, you might even say she identifies as a country girl with no interest in big city life. Its noisy. As for other pets, Isa doesn’t mind one way or another. An independent male dog would make a great counter-part but she is perfectly content being an only dog. As for cats, we suspect her interest in them would lead to a fun game of chase (for her, not the cat of course) so a home without feline-friends would be best for her. Kids are welcome with understanding the her bit of shyness isn’t from lack of love, she is a bit like a new kid at school, help her learn her way around and be supportive, before you know it you’ll have a new best friend who is ready to show you all her cool spins and zoomies. Isa was introduced to several new dogs and did great, she was very tolerant and patient with a variety of dogs from calm to the high energy wild ones. Her shy approach isn’t as present with dogs but she does take a more aloof approach at first so a dog that is understanding or equally easy-going and aloof would be best for her. Isa is a cutie girl who is sure to bring you and everyone around you plenty of laughs and love. A girl like her won’t be available for long so if you are even slightly interested, fill out an application or send an email to kristin@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.

This handsome young man is named Parker Sparkles, and he’s looking for love! Parker is a complete sweetheart, ready to adore, and be adored by you. We think he would make an excellent companion dog for just about any fun-loving household, he would love to be your very own adventure dog! Parker would adore doggy parents with adventurous hearts, that will take him camping, hiking or just to the park! Watch Parker here: Adoptable Parker The Handsome Catahoula Mix https://youtu.be/5vw1DeaALyU We believe that Parker is a Catahoula, Labrador mix, however he is a rescue, so his exact age and breed are unknown to us and cannot be guaranteed. Parker Sparkles is lovingly bestowed with such a fun name on account of his partial iris heterochromia in both eyes- he has brown eyes with these adorable, cartoonish blue highlights. We estimate his age to be around 1 year old, and he currently weighs in at 56 pounds. Parker has a huge, warm heart, and being a rescue dog, he’s learned to guard it. He can be a bit shy at first, but he warms up with soft voices, gentle pets and quality time. This is true for Parker with humans and dogs alike. Once he has warmed up to you, Parker is love in living form. He’s a gorgeous boy with so much love to give, his foster mom describes him as “affectionate, but not needy.” Every day, she’s greeted by excited little hops when she comes home. He’s a snuggler, and a total lap dog. Parker is a lover! Parker is currently fostered in a home with multiple other dogs, who he gets along fabulously with. He has a wonderful rough and rowdy playstyle with his canine companions, he’s always the life of the doggy party. Parker would appreciate doggy siblings in his forever home! This sweet boy is a complete toy lover as well. His favorite toy is a canvas frisbee with rope around the edges. He adores squeaky toys (and playing “surgeon” with them!) He loves his nylabones too, and could chew on them for hours. He shares his toys well, and adores playing tug of war and fetch. He bounds across the yard like a deer when he chases toys, it’s absolutely adorable. Parker is easy on leash, and considers long walks a love language. He’s an adventure dog at heart and amazing in the car. He loads and unloads by himself, settles in the backseat, and likes to look out the window. We’re not quite sure if Parker is a water dog yet, but we can say that he’s quite curious about his foster family’s pool! Parker likes to explore the edges of the pool, dipping his face under the surface from time to time. We won’t be surprised if he learns to love swimming! Parker’s perfect home would have at least one loving human to adore, but he’s not too picky about the rest. Parker could do-exist happily with doggy siblings, or he could thrive as a solo dog. He would love to have a spot on your couch, and something tells us that this boy would adore a place in your bed as well. Parker loves to run, and the sound of trucks and lawnmowers don’t faze him, so his foster mom suspects he would love the farm dog lifestyle! This handsome boy won’t be available long, submit an application to adopt today! We are willing to test this dog with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Please email Kristin@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.
