Schipperke puppies and dogs in Poulsbo, Washington

FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED This incredibly SWEET and LOVING girl has yet to find her forever home! Nina is a 3-year-old, 45lb Schipperke/Shepherd mix who came to us as a stray from CA. Nina loves to be with her people and is very attentive to her handler. She also loves to please and is a very quick learner, which is GREAT for training! She actually already knows some basic obedience and is more than ready and willing to learn more! Nina enjoys going on walks and adventures with her person and is looking for that ride-or-die adventure buddy/family. She will be a very loyal and loving companion to whoever adopts her and will provide an ENORMOUS amount of love to that lucky person‘s life! Nina can be overexcited when meeting new dogs and is still working on her doggie manners, so she requires slow introductions. If another dog is causing her stress, she can sometimes become growly and will protect herself. She would definitely be fine and happy as an only dog in a home soaking up all the love and attention. However, if there is another dog in the home, we will do a meet first to see how the pups get along. She is not tested with cats. Nina takes treats softly and has been gentle with people but can be bouncy when she is excited. She truly has so many great qualities to work with and just needs a patient and loving home to nurture and help her continue becoming her best self! Nina is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and will be spayed prior to adoption. Her adoption fee is $400.

Meet Laon! He is a male dog, born in December 2021, weighing 5.3kg, and was rescued by our team. Laon is well-trained with his bathroom habits, using pee pads 100% of the time at home and preferring to potty outdoors. He does not mark indoors. Laon barks when strangers enter but calms down quickly when told not to. He enjoys walks once a day, though he prefers to come home quickly when it's cold after doing his business. He gets along well with dogs his size or smaller, but is afraid of larger dogs and may bark at them. He is also wary of men and children, and tends to be cautious around new people. During bath time, Laon behaves well even though he doesn't particularly like it. He is also good with teeth brushing and grooming. Laon does not have separation anxiety and is fine being left alone at home. He prefers to sleep in the master bedroom. He tends to bond more quickly with female caregivers. Initially, he may be a bit cautious and fearful, but with time, he becomes a loving family member. Laon currently eats Natural Lab Care3 food. He has had some issues with itching and has been to the vet, who suggested that he might have allergies. Although he loves food, he won't eat if he's uncomfortable, but with a bit of patience, he will come around. *Please send all inquiries to @everlove8282. *Please submit your applications through the application form on our Instagram profile! Our team will carefully consider each of your applications to find the perfect forever homes for our dogs. *As all of our dogs are currently in South Korea, there will be an adoption fee of 700USD + customs fee (if applicable) for each dog. —> All details are on the poster!

Aberdeen Scottish Terrier Rescue is a registered 501(c)3 Web Site: www.aberdeenstr.com ***MUST SUBMIT APPLICATION before we will respond to email or phone inquiries. Thank You for your cooperation*** Please read listings fully to the end before applying for one of our beloved rescues. WE ARE NOT A SHELTER; WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER RESCUE WITH FULL-TIME JOBS. Please do not contact us to look at a dog. We will contact you once we have reviewed your completed application if we think your home might be a good fit. A reference check, phone interview, and home visit will be completed before meeting an adoptable dog. We work quickly. Please do not submit an application until you are ready to bring a new furry family member home. Expect your references to be contacted shortly after submitting your application. We adopt out to homes in WA state, but require that you are present for the meet and greet in Newcastle, WA. Our adoption fee is non-negotiable. The adoption fee is due on the day of adoption in the form of a check, Zelle, or cash. We no longer accept PayPal because of the percentage they take & their fees but if the potential adopter wants to pay the fees we will accept PayPal. The call was put out for the need from commercial breeders who needed some of their dogs gone, at a cost of course in the middle of Omaha. Of course they always want money for the dogs & of course once we know about them we are not leaving them & do what we have to do to help them. But despite where they lived & were going to be used to make money off their backs, they were all the most precious bundles of joy. His life was instantly changing in that moment & only for the better. He was one of the very lucky ones. On this day we rescued Bear & 15 other baby dolls which 2 others were his siblings. He is a puppy & is still learning his puppy manners. Now the real healing, love & devotion could begin & show Bear how he is supposed to be loved & adored in a loving forever home just as he is in his foster home. Bear & his friends & siblings were bought back to the WA state where he is now is so happy to be here & can’t wait to find his new loving devoted forever home. Bear is the gentler oh the bunch. He spends his days playing with his siblings & his foster brothers. Adores toys & chewing on toys. For everything he has been through his foster mum said he is such a lovely little chap. Bear his foster mum said is the smallest guy of the bunch. Very sweet little guy, loves cuddles, needs a bit of reassurance when he is away from his liter mates but looks to the human for leadership. Will be a great addition to a family. Smart & very eager to please and learn The reality is, the foster homes are hid real first experience at being in a home, with a tv, bedding she can snuggle up in, a roof over head that’s not outside. Bear is a wonderful eater & is not shy about eating & has not been since the day we got him & is foster mum took him home. He eats clean meaning, raw proteins, fruits, vegetables, supplements & spices He adores comfy beds & big comfy blankets because again the reality is, this is something he did not get to experience ever until he was rescued. He is such a fun puppy who just wants to be loved & to make up for his past. He loves everyone. He would still need to be taught to walk on a harness & leash. He is a puppy & we have not taken him out anywhere. But his foster family have been teaching him on their property. Bear rides in the car well & considering the only times we know of was when he went to be sold & when we got him & going home with his foster family & to & from the vets. It’s still all new to him though. We are looking for a crate free home for this little lad only. Bear as you can imagine spent the first part of his life in a caged environment. We are also looking for a forever home for Bear where someone is home during the day or he can go with her people wherever possibly he can go with them. When they find someone who treats them as they should be treated & loves them they get so attached to them. Bear is looking for a forever home who will cherish him & love him as he should be loved & be patient with him & never give up on him. Bear has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes in the rescue & in his foster home & he is currently with other dogs & adores other dogs. He absolutely must go to a forever home with a dog or dog’s present in the home roughly the same size for him to thrive in. Please do not apply saying your neighbors have a dog or family members or you will take him to places where there are other dogs. That will not work, another dog or dogs is mandatory along with a fully fenced backyard. Bear is roughly 12 lbs & he is 7 months old & ‭a schipperke‬. He has put on weight since being in his loving foster home. What he is mixed with we are not sure, male, he will be neutered by laser by our wonderful vets, he is microchipped, receive his last shots, including DHLPP, Bordatella, rabies & dewormed & neutered by laser. Unfortunately one day Bear was being handed over by his foster mum & Bear got away & had a freak accident & ran into a car. We got him x-rays, bloodwork, medication, acupuncture, laser, Chinese herbs but he can no longer use one of his front paws. He still runs like the wind & it does not affect him at all. He loves going outside with the hose & biting at the water coming from the hose & playing in it. We ended up having to get Bears leg amputated as he started biting at his paw & doing severe damage to it & had to spend another $2077 for this surgery. But let us say, having his leg amputated does not stop him at all & he acts as though he did before his surgery. He is one very special tripod. We have spent far more on Bear with paying for him from a commercial breeder. Bringing him to WA with his travel/flight costs, his transportation to WA. All of his medical care in WA etc & bringing him to WA then his adoption fee comes close to covering. His adoption fee does not even cover half of what we have spent on this little lad. Bear has not been around cats since being in the rescue, but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not him around small children so we do do not recommend small children nor cats though & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & cats. We were not there when Bear was conceived so we do not know who his parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think his breed is. As with all of our rescues & Bear’s friends he will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Bear potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond. We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying. Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Bear & going through our process and have read her listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on. Or you waste this rescues time, will remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit via WebEx or Zoom due to covid & followed by a meet & greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Bear who understands his needs & that meet all the requirements for the special sweet little Bear. Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately. Bear has an adoption fee of $1250 & is ready for his truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what he has been through.
