Story
I adopted Othello in May and he has turned out to be the most loving dog I've ever had but sadly my husband and I got a job and a place to live that doesn't except pets. Othello is 11 years but has a lot of energy loves to play or just cuddle he is a love bug and loves his morning hugs. He is not a fan of other dogs, but he did do okay on walks if you just direct his attention away. He really is a sweetheart and it breaks my heart I have to give him up. But I hope there is a loving home that will take him in..

Story
Our sweet little dog is ready to find her forever family! Maya is 6 and a 1/2 months whippet catahoula mix. She is a true puppy despite her birth defects. They definitely are not a disability for her however. She lives her life just like any other dog except she is 100% deaf and only has 1 eye. Maya was born this way. She has limited vision in her other eye. Maya loves playing a lot, both inside and outside. She gets along with dogs of all sizes. Her favorite foster sibling is a chihuahua and lab mix. She loves kids and the cat at the foster home doesnt phase her at all. Car rides and walks gets her tail waggin so hard if she were a plane she would land in your arms and in your heart. Whoever her new owner is she hopes that she is allowed to sleep on furniture because she loves curling up with you at night sleeping under the covers. Maya knows how to use the doggie door but still needs to go out regularly to avoid accidents. She is such a big baby and only 34 lbs. She's a quick learner and will required a patient family. She is getting started with a vibrating e collar tonight to help with commands. A spay contract will be a requirement as she is too young to spay right now. Her shots are up-to-date. If interested in this shining star, go to secondchancedogs.net and fill out an adoption form to start the process in meeting her.

Story
Animal Profile: NO LONGER ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS Fiona is a 4 month old, 15 lb Whippet mix who joined us from our partner Kauai Humane Society on 3/26. The shelter reports she is shy, timid, and on the skinny side. She is great with her siblings and does interact with the shelter staff. Fiona will benefit from a resident dog in the foster home to show her the ropes. More info to come as we get to know her.  Seattle Foster Update: Fiona is doing well. She is underweight but is eating well and hopefully she will get to a healthier weight soon. She is starting to wag her tail when she sees me or my sons and is happy to let us pet in her crate. She has been on a walk with my older dogs which was great because she eagerly follows them. Without them on the walk she doesn't seem to know what to do so we have been taking it very slowly in the backyard with her on leash.  When introduced to my older dogs she did great, no barking or aggressive behavior, just sniffing. She also did fine with her bath and seemed to enjoy being toweled dry. She has a blanket in her crate that she likes to burrow in. She is just settling in, so her personality will continue to blossom! &#226&#128&#139Seattle Foster Update : Fiona is beginning to come out of her shell and really benefits from having a confident gentle dog show her the ropes. She needs a home with a doggie companion. Adoption Info:  Adoption fee is $500, which includes spay/neuter, current rabies/DAPPV/bordetella vaccinations, microchip, health certificate, heartworm test, and flight from Hawaii. All adoption fees are donations to a Washington non-profit corporation and all donations go to benefit the animals in our rescue.  Animal History:  This dog was transferred from our Kauai Humane Society rescue partner (Arrival Date Thursday 3/26). This dog will be available for adoption in Seattle once evaluated. Apply online at www.DogGoneSeattle.org

Story
Animal Profile:  Rocket is a 2 year old male Whippet/Pointer mix and is about 31 lbs.He is an active dog that needs space to move.  His activity can overwhelm other dogs and he doesn't like it when they try to correct him. He will listen to verbal correction from his handlers. He likes having his own space in the shelter kennels but he does walk nicely on a leash with other dogs .  We will continue to update his profile as we can get to know him.  Seattle Foster Update: Rocket is settling in well. It seems like most experiences are new to him, so he is tentative, but he’s warmed up to me and my place. He now weighs 36 lbs and I suspect he’ll continue to gain weight. He doesn't seem to get along with cats. On walks he alternates between being afraid and walking very close to me, and being excited and darting back and forth across the sidewalk. He greets other dogs nicely, and doesn’t seem interested in small children. He hasn't had much interaction with children yet, so will update when he does. I have not heard him bark and he does fine in the crate. He doesn’t really snuggle or get on furniture, but loves following me around the house, laying at the foot of my bed, and lots of petting. This might change over time as he gets more used to his surroundings. So far he seems pretty low energy, likes to lounge, needs long walks. We are working on potty training. He did fine on the one car ride we’ve been on. He wanted to be in the front observing everything. And he did fine when I gave him a bath.Overall Rocket is curious, attentive, gentle, submissive and tentative of new people, places and experiences. He may become less tentative as he becomes more acclimated.  Adoption Info:  Adoption fee is $500, which includes spay/neuter, current rabies/DAPPV/bordetella vaccinations, microchip, health certificate, heartworm test, and flight from Hawaii. All adoption fees are donations to a Washington non-profit corporation and all donations go to benefit the animals in our rescue.  Animal History:  This dog was transferred from our Kauai Humane Society rescue partner (Arrival Date Thursday 3/19). This dog will be available for adoption in Seattle once evaluated. Apply online at www.DogGoneSeattle.org About Foster to Adopt Program:    Fosters provide a safe landing spot for dogs transitioning from the shelter environment and help prepare the dogs for adoption. You provide the love and structure, and we take care of everything else! We cover all vet care, and drive the adoption process. Average length of foster is 2-3 weeks. Fosters do get first consideration for adoption, if desired.  Apply to foster online at www.doggoneseattle.org/foster-application

Story
Animal Profile:  Elka is an estimated 3-year-old, 30 lb female Whippet from Hawaii. The shelter says " Elka is a timid but lovable little girl. She adores people and wants to be close to her handlers at all times. She can be a little uncertain of dogs at times, but seems curious about them. She will definitely benefit from the company of polite but outgoing dogs to show her the basics of dog interaction and to build her confidence."  Seattle Foster Update: Elka is still settling into her foster home and is very shy when meeting new people. We're looking for a calm, quiet forever home for her with a canine companion and without young children. She is still working on basic training but does well in her crate. More updates to come as we learn more about her personality. Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $500, which includes spay/neuter, current rabies/DAPPV/bordetella vaccinations, microchip, health certificate, heartworm test, and flight from Hawaii. All adoption fees are donations to a Washington non-profit corporation and all donations go to benefit the animals in our rescue.  Apply online at www.DogGoneSeattle.org Animal History: This dog was transferred from our Kauai Humane Society rescue partner (Arrival Date Thurs 2/20).

Mahogany

Whippet Hound (Unknown Type)

Male, Young
Seattle, WA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Animal Profile: Mahogany is an estimated 1.5 year old, 30 lb whippet hound mix who is active and friendly and loves being around people and other dogs. He is still a puppy and could use some work on manners, but he's social and affectionate and will do great in an active home. He arrived from Hawaii on 3/27 and we will update his profile as we get to know him. Seattle Foster Update: This gentle giraffe is the sweetest pup! It’s taking him some time to get used to domestic life, but he is slowly getting the hang of it. He has a lot of energy and minimal training (maybe no training!), but he does listen and seems to be a fast learner -- especially with lots of treats (he is very food motivated). He hasn’t had any accidents in the house a nd is already catching on to “sit.” Now we're working on NO and DOWN. He learns a lot by watching our resident dog. Crate training is going really well, he's working on “kenneling up” on command, and he's been choosing to relax in his crate on his own more frequently (not for long, but it’s definitely his safe space). So far he isn't very interested in toys, and gets startled by anything with a squeaker. He is incredibly friendly and trusting to all people and dogs so far. He and our resident dog are starting to play a little, but Mahogany is a bit clumsy and doesn't have much body awareness. We're working on helping him develop a gentler play style and to be less mouthy. Apartment life may not be the best option as he seems to need more space. Mahogany definitely has hound in him -- his nose is almost always on the ground. We are working on leash training. For as much as he zig zags and sniffs around, he doesn’t pull hard towards an area of interest much and he listens when you guide him away to keep walking. Surprisingly for how much he sniffs around, he doesn’t seem to have a strong prey drive (he has not tried to chase after any bird or squirrel). And both outside and in our apartment, he has not tried to pick up, eat, or chew anything that we haven’t given him. He doesn’t love the car, but he does not get car sick or seem overly anxious. Mostly he just can't stay still! He’s also pretty clumsy, so he really struggles to keep his balance in the car. Vehicles seem to startle him outside on walks, especially at night or if they are a loud truck, but he doesn’t show signs that he’s too scared. Adoption Info:  Adoption fee is $500, which includes spay/neuter, current rabies/DAPPV/bordetella vaccinations, microchip, health certificate, heartworm test, and flight from Hawaii. All adoption fees are donations to a Washington non-profit corporation and all donations go to benefit the animals in our rescue.  Animal History:  This dog was transferred from our Kauai Humane Society rescue partner (Arrival Date Thursday 3/26).

Story
I adopted Droopy in October of 2018 in Oregon. He is estimated to be 5 or 6 years old, when I got him from the shelter, he was an abandoned dog. Someone pushed him out of a van onto the sidewalk, and a kind stranger brought him to the shelter. I adopted him 2 days after he was turned in. He is an amazing dog, very sweet, loves to cuddle, and spends a good amount of time sleeping every day. I walk about 3-6 miles with him every day, so his new owners should be ready to spend time walking him. He is dog reactive, so he will need an owner that is ready to spend a lot of time and money on training. He is potty trained, I have never had a house accident since I got him, but he is not crate trained. He has moderate to severe separation anxiety, so leaving him alone is possible, but causes him a lot of anxiety. This is another area he will need a lot of time spent on training. If you're looking to adopt him, you should be ready to put in some work, but also reap a lot of rewards from it.

Available through CCPAL.  This is 1.5-year-old Morgan.  She is a Greyhound mix dog.  She is very sweet and starving for affection.  She is agile and fast on her feet and wants to chase things that run.  She is getting good on her leash manners but when she sees something real interesting will still pull.  This girl has a nice stride and would be a good running partner.  She is very affectionate with people and will make a great companion.  She is great with all people and could go with just about any family as an only dog.    She weighs about 50 pounds and will keep the long and lean build as the common look of the greyhound.  She is up on her shots, spayed and ready for her forever home.  The great part of an adult dog is she is through all the puppy antics and ready to learn the ropes.    Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to maudreyh@aol.com  for an application.  See her cute video too

Story
Welcome Jax. He is 3.5-year-old Basenji / Chow. He has a Chow Personality. He is an independent dog and very comfortable entertaining himself. He is about 75 pounds and will make a nice companion on walks, hikes or runs. He loves his kennel and keeps it clean. He was in a home prior to coming to us and was potty trained. He needs to be with a man or a couple without kids. There must have been some rough handling in his past with his collar so he is very particular about how his collar is handled and likes you to handle it slowly. Brisk movements around his collar from behind him surprising him make him be defensive. He is very food motivated so all you need to do is show him a treat and he will do what you are asking. He has nice long legs and a very bushy and full coat so he would be perfect in the more northern climates. He would be great for a couple who want a companion dog make them feel safer. He is not a big barker but very inquisitive and observant. He loves being in the yard and doesn’t try to climb or dig in the yards we have. He is currently in Texas waiting for his forever home. His adoption fee is 180 and transport is 185. He is a wonderful dog and with the right family will make a nice companion. Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to maudreyh@aol.com for an application. See his cute video too. https://youtu.be/Qh06oLpQNLQ
