Story
Simba has spent too long waiting for his forever family. 💔 This strong and spirited Akita-Husky mix is full of energy, loves his toys, and is happiest on long walks or playing with his human. He’s sweet, loyal, and ready for the right home. If you’re looking for a dog with personality and heart, Simba is waiting to meet you! 🐕 Adopt Simba: https://form.jotform.com/221926016430144 Full profile: Simba is a 6-8-year-old Akita-Husky mix with the personality of an Akita and the heart of a lion. He’s playful, sweet, and full of energy but needs a confident and strong adopter who understands his needs. 💪 Strength & Training: Simba is powerful and can pull when excited, so he needs someone physically capable of managing his strength. He’s learning commands like sit, down, paw, and “potty” and thrives with structure. A harness might help with his pulling. 🐾 Energy & Personality: Simba is not always a couch potato! He loves long walks (2+ miles is no problem), playing with his toys, and getting plenty of attention. He’s affectionate and cuddly but always ready for adventure. 🏡 Home Needs: Simba would do best in a home without small children due to his strength and energy. He’s good with other dogs, especially more timid ones, but does best with boundaries around toys and space. He’s also quite the counter-surfer, so keeping things out of reach is key! 🐕 Health: Simba has a thyroid condition that is managed with treatment, giving him renewed energy and playfulness. Simba has had a lot of love and care from his foster, but he’s ready to find his forever home. If you’re looking for a strong, loyal, and playful companion, Simba could be your perfect match. 💙 Ready to meet Simba? Apply to adopt him and give this big-hearted boy the home he deserves. 📌 Share to help Simba find his forever home Currently being cared in Southern California, but can be transported up to northern states, such as Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and anywhere within the US continental, if a great suitable family is willing to adopt him.

Story
**All dogs are by appointment only, please inquire through Petfinder, Adopt-a-pet, Rescueme.org or e-mail us directly at shelter@hbpets.org for the dogs questionnaire*** Meet Lucia, just over a year old, spayed female, Akita. Lucia is sweet, intelligent, strong-willed (like all Akita's), eager to learn, loves car rides and adventures. Lucia's ideal home would be someone with knowledge of the Akita breed, a fenced backyard, someone who will take her on adventures like hiking. She does well with calm male dogs of the same size or larger. If you are looking for a loyal, intelligent, adventure buddy, she is your gal. My adoption fee is $250

Story
HI - I'M ASPEN! I'm a sweet, gentle, and small 1-year-old male Siberian Husky mix ready to start my life with an awesome person or people. I was recently rescued from an overcrowded kill shelter in California, in the nick of time. I am good with other dogs, love people and would make a wonderful companion for an active person, couple or family who loves to walk, hike or go on road trips! I get along great with everyone - and I weigh only 48 lbs. I'm the perfect size. I really dodged a bullet -- I was made urgent for space at the shelter -- and I would love a chance to be adopted by an amazing person or people. I'm looking for a foster or forever home. I'm currently still in California, but can be transported to you in Oregon at no extra charge beyond the adoption fee. Please email for an application.

Story
Hi my name is River (You can see the blue in my eyes) and I am around 3 years old and I am a VERY well trained pooch. I can sit, place, break, potty (either by normal door or dog door), shake and stay. I am wicked smart, and love to learn new things. I am looking for my forever home. I am incredibly affectionate and loyal and really want my home to be about me. No cats or children. (I’m pretty tall, about 2 feet) I am good with other people and children who visit. I love walks, balls, staring for HOURS watching squirrels do squirrel things. I will spend as much time with you as you can take. I LOVE affection and just spending time with you. I am a working breed, so it would be best if someone who has had experience with someone like me or loves consistently as much as I do. If you think I sound like the right dog for you, let my foster mom know. She wants me to have an amazing life, because I am amazing! I am fully vetted: 70 pounds, neutered and microchipped. To meet me fill out the application on OFOSA.ORG and my Foster mom will be in touch. NO APARTMENT life for me and must have a secure fenced yard. My adoption fee is $340.

Story
Birch is a 60lb, 6-7 yr-old Husky/Australian Cattle Dog/Samoyed mix located in Hillsboro, OR. Rescued in 2020 as a street dog from rural Southern California by START Animal Rescue, he has made meaningful progress with structure, training, and professional pack walks. Birch is bright, affectionate, funny, and deeply loyal once bonded, but he is not a beginner dog. He has a history of reactivity with unfamiliar dogs and people until properly introduced, resource guarding, overstimulation in chaotic environments, and bite incidents when scared or pushed past his threshold. He is sensitive to having his paws handled. Because of this, he requires an experienced, patient handler who understands reactivity and dogs who need clear structure and boundaries. Birch will thrive in a calm, adult-only home with no cats and ideally no other pets (possible exception a very stable, trainer-level dog). A secure yard or access to outdoor space, consistent routine, and continued training are essential.
