Comments: Maggie May is an Akita mix, with what - we don't
know. She was adopted once from the
shelter and then returned a few weeks later because the
adopters were moving. Sadly, this put Maggie in danger
of being put to sleep if a new home wasn't found quickly. No
one came to adopt her and we couldn't let her be euthanized.
She is just too sweet. Maggie loves to cuddle and will
sit on command. She jumps right into a crate in the
back of a car and rides quietly. She was temperament
tested at the shelter and passed on the food, toy and treat
tests. She was fine with cats and ignored other dogs.
She is a happy well-behaved girl who will make someone a
wonderful companion. She wants to live in the house
and spend as much time with her family as she can.
When she's outside, she will need a secure 5-6 foot fence
with a secure gate. Maggie walks nicely on a leash and
will make you smile. We've learned that Maggie barks
and has a tendency to wander. So you will need to keep
an eye on her until she feels at home. She would do
best in a country setting. Maggie has LOTS of energy and
needs a home where she can get LOTS of attention. Maggie is up to date on her
vaccinations and is micro-chipped.

Comments:
Nakita is looking sad because her owner left her at the vet clinic for good. We were able to find a short-term foster home for the sweet girl. She has lived happily in a multiple dog and cat home and is good with older children. Her foster mom says this girl has a lot of spunk left in her. She even jumped up into the back of a Subaru. She is being treated for an ear infection and is getting glucosamine supplements for her joints. Nakita is full of love, kisses and tail wags. She needs a warm, loving home for her golden years. Securely fenced yard a must and she must be an indoor dog. She is up to date on vaccinations and spayed and will be microchipped. Adoption application, home check, and adoption agreement apply. There is a $200 fee for adoption. PS - She will probably be getting a new name for her new life.

Comments:
Ginger is a sweet, older gal who would love to pull up a spot by your bed for her retirement years. Ginger was a stray picked up in Spokane County. She likes to go on short walks but does have arthritis so will need a joint supplement along with her food. Ginger also likes car rides - her face in the wind. We are still not sure if she has been spayed but she is current on vaccinations. She will need a securely fenced yard for playtime and a soft spot for bedtime. Adoption application, home check and adoption agreement required.

These pictures show Suki at the shelter (right) and in her new foster home (she is the dog on the left side of the picture on the left). She looks SO much happier. Her owner died and she had nowhere to go. Suki is very sweet, housebroken, rides well in a car and is getting along with the other resident dogs. We are learning more about her but she is definitely a keeper. If you are interested in adopting Suki, you must have a securely fenced yard and want her to live inside your home as part of a family. Adoption application, agreement and home check please.

Chip is a sweet, goofy boy and seems to be almost perfect. He knows his way around a house, is doing his best to get along with the resident cats and is a happy boy. He loves to play and give kisses. We are learning more about him but we like what we see. He is a turn-key dog, ready for his new home. We will continue his house training, crate training and socializing. And we will make sure he has good manners. Chip will be microchipped. He wants to be part of a family and live in a house. He will definitely need a securely fenced yard to play in. Adoption application, agreement, home check apply.

Comments:
Polar is about 4 years old and was found as a stray.
One of our volunteers has evaluated him and says he is full of kisses and loves to get treats. He is a happy boy and wants to please.
He likes to walk and would love an active family. He also gets along with female dogs. He will need a 6
foot fence for his playtime, but he must be a house dog because we
don't want him to get away again. No cats.
