THIS DOG IS NOT BEING HOMED THROUGH PIXIE! THIS IS A COURTESY POST; PLEASE CONTACT COLIN AT THE EMAIL BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS-

I’m looking for a new home for my dog Clyde. He is a 4-5 year old lab/hound mix and weighs about 65lbs. I adopted Clyde from the Oregon Humane Society in Portland this past January. He is gentle but very strong and watch out for his happy tail, when it gets going it can hurt. Clyde has many of the traits of a hound besides his good looks. He is alert, adventurous, and energetic. He just keeps going and going and going. He loves being outside following his nose and chasing most anything that moves, birds, squirrels, and especially cats. To my surprise is does swim quite well. He likes and is playful with other dogs but eventually does his own thing. He is also one of the best couch potatoes I ever had the pleasure of sharing a couch with.   He is very well housed trained!

Clyde loves to be around people the most, he is happiest lounging, follow someone around the house or yard, or going for a walk. He does have a high level of anxiety when left alone and when riding in a car.   He is normally not destructive when left in the house, only when he is isolated in a small room or crate.   He normally only voices his frustration vocally with whining, barking and howling. I am currently working with a veterinarian trying ways to reduce his anxiety through understanding, training and medication.

Clyde loves going for walks and long runs. Yep, I am a distance runner and Clyde has joined me on runs as long as 13 miles!! And he still has energy to play, I just have to watch his paws for soreness and abrasions. He has gotten better on leash and I have used a gentle leader on him in places of heavy distraction and on our runs. He gets excited every time I put my shoes on.   He is in wonderful health, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered.

I feel Clyde would do well in a home when someone is around most of the day. He has done well at doggie daycare, but I have been unable to use it more because I normally start work before the daycares open. He gets upset with kennels when he is isolated in a room or crate. We have boarded him for multiple days with local dog sitters that care for him at their home. He would love a yard to explore and take care of business, but has gotten use to doing his business on a leash too.

If you think Clyde would be good fit in your home,  contact Colin at pctcumbo@gmail.com or 503-726-8809

Who is that cute little nut? It’s me, Cashew! As indicated by my adorable fuzzy ears, I am a super cute 4 year old Westie mix weighing in at 19lbs. Though I was a bit shy at first, I am really coming out of my shell and have become quite the charmer! I’m more of a snuggler than anything and really just want a nice warm lap to get comfy in. I’m a great walker and love to go on my daily afternoon stroll and then hurry up inside from the snow and warm up in front of the fireplace! I have made a few puppy pals here at Pixie, but dog parks would be a little to overwhelming for me. I tend to be a little too interested in playing with those kitties, so none in my home please. But I love to hang with my human friends over 10! I am just a loving guy looking for a quiet low key home that is owned by my adopters, as we relax the night away watching some Netflix. Sound like your ideal day too? Then fill out an application, so we can meet! I come to you vaccinated, micro-chipped, and neutered with an adoption fee of $300.

Oh so handsome. Oh so funny. Oh so sweet. Oh so me! Hi everyone. My name is Oso and I am a 4 year old Lab/Akita mix weighing in at 85lbs. I am big oaf with lots of love to give! I can sometimes be a bit bashful, but with a few treats and a few pets, I am oh so happy to be around you! Believe it or not, I am used to being out in the rural country on a farm with lots of different animals and people over the age of 10. The commotion of this big city is a bit too much for me and I would just love to go back to my roots of being in a more rural area or even just a quiet neighborhood with lots of space for me to run and play fetch! Which is my favorite activity by the way. I can’t get enough of some ball time! With my past farm experience, I am used to being around all kinds of livestock, cats, and other pups too! I am also very smart and know basic obedience and am already housebroken. Overall, I am the whole package-brains, brawn, and beauty! Are you oh so ready to add me to your life?! Then fill out an application today, so we can meet. I come to you neutered, vaccinated, and micro-chipped with an adoption fee of $300.

Pickles  is a  5 1/2  year old Chiweenie, spayed female, and through no fault of her own is desperately  looking for a new family .    Pickles  was taken in recently by a good Samaritan when her owners were  moving.  Unfortunately, her current female dog is not having it!  The previous owners were not kind to her so she is scared and just needs someone to love her.   Pickles loves to cuddle and is potty trained to use a doggie door.     Please if you think you can help her we just know she will reward you with so much love and loyalty!

THIS DOG IS NOT BEING HOMED THROUGH THE PIXIE PROJECT. THIS IS A COURTESY POSTING; PLEASE CONTACT ALI AT THE NUMBER BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS-

Skitters is a 15-year-old Dachshund that was surrendered a few days ago. He has lived with the same owner his whole life, the reason for surrendering him was because the owner determined she is allergic to him and he has spent the last three years outside due to this. He is a very sweet old boy. He allows you to handle him and it was reported that he does well with cats, dogs, and older children. Smaller children may be too much for this old boy. We have not put him through an assessment as of yet. He does have chronic dry eye, dental disease, and a small mass on the left side of the body.

Unfortunately, ODR, Inc. is over-full and cannot take him in. If you or anyone you know can help, please share this email or contact Ali Randall at the Humane Society of Central Oregon at  541 382-3537  or via  www.hsco.org. Thank you!

walter-healer-dog-1

Hi everyone! My name is Walter and I am a fun, outgoing 1 year old  cattle dog mix. With my charming good looks and my silly personality, I am the dog who will always entertain to you, bringing a smile to your face! I am very excited  to meet new people  ages 10+  and other pups too.  In fact, I would just love a confident lady pup friend to play  with!  I am just a little too interested in playing with those kitties though.  I have a great medium energy and  would be a great exploring partner! Hikes up a mountain or to the nearest swimming hole for a nice cool dip or even just some fetch  in the yard, I am  always a happy as a clam. Because I have a tendency to “sing”, I need my potential adopters to own their home.   I’m not active all of the time and would love watching movies on the couch with you sipping hot coco just as much! As long as I am with you, then it doesn’t matter what we do.    I am sweet, social, handsome and just the pup you have been looking for! So  fill out an application today, so we can set up a meet! I come to you vaccinated, micro-chipped, and neutered with an adoption fee of $300.

Zeus-TX-1Derp-1

Hi! My name is Zeus or as some people around Pixie call me “Derp”! I tend to get my lips caught on my teeth a lot, so  my  funny faces are what got me the nickname. Did I mention I was funny? Because I think I am hilarious! I am just here to entertain the world and get lots of belly rubs along the way! I am a sweet and very affectionate pit bull who would just love to play with you! I mostly enjoy a good squeaker toy and lots of ball, but  a nice long walk outside would be just great too!  I get along great with other dogs, but I sometimes don’t know my own size when I am wrestling about and would do best with another dog my size. But boy do I love to play with  them! But no cats for me please!  I need to be in a home with kids 12 or older and due to certain breed rental restrictions, I would need my future adopters to own their home. Which is just fine by me, because I would love a nice yard to run around in. Do you have room in your heart for this Derpy face? Then fill out an application today, so we can meet! I come to you neutered, vaccinated, and micro-chipped with an adoption fee of $250. Own a home and interested in fostering me? Then email us info@pixieproject.org!
