Pinky's Story

New info! <br/><br/>Pinkie girl has been with us quite awhile, she went to a foster to adopt but got herself in trouble as typical to her breed she needs an experienced handler who doesnt have a hard time putting rules and boundaries in place. She LOVES her person and her space really anything that is &#34;hers&#34;. She is e collar trained, prong collar trained, crate trained, house trained and good with cats and dogs (dog savvy cats and had to be told for the first few weeks to leave them alone occasionally). She needs routine, love with boundaries, and is an amazing dog who will give you the absolute best cuddles and boops. She is only about 1.6 years now 18lbs, lives with various other dogs, probably best no younger kids as she is a herding breed who is prone to wanting to herd fast moving things, she did live with kids from 8 and up previously. She knows all her basic commands (sit, down, off, no, stay, come) she would love a fenced property where she can exist outside during the day and hunt anything that moves (squirrels, chipmunks, lizards), she enjoys a baby pool, she likes walks and going in the car with her person, she prefers not to say hi to strangers and should be introduced slowly and with treats or put away when people visit until she knows them. We will train any serious home on her commands and how to use the tools shes been trained on. (Video of her in river in comment- I hope )<br/><br/>Pinky. She is a 1 year old 18lb Mini Aussie Pom mix whose all smarts of the aussie breed and pom love bug, she is good with other dogs, can co-exist with cats (occasionally chases if they run but listens very well to NO), has basic commands and leash skills, LOVES her crate and is amazing in a crate or kennel. She is a sweet girl with more of a shorter semi fluffy aussie mix coat. She has been a joy to have here in foster at my house and would thrive with anyone who has the knowledge of herding or smart breeds who love daily walk, playtime and food/treat puzzles for mental stimulation. She is amazingly smart and picks up a routine really fast and learns what is expected and isn&#39;t OK in a new home pretty quickly. She is great with our 10 other dogs and fosters from 2lbs to 80lbs. She is house trained as well and has had no accidents since coming to our house. She can be a little leery of men, and some new people in her environment and will run away or bark but will accept a treat and a couple scratches, warming up more over time. <br/><br/> <br/><br/>If interested please follow these steps:<br/><br/>1. fill out and submit an application online at:<br/><br/>https://form.jotform.com/240361716308149<br/><br/>2. Please send in home and yard photos for approval.<br/><br/>*please note: We like to do 2 week Foster to Adopts on adult dogs,so the dogs don&#39;t have to move around as much and they can bond and make sure they fit into your home before completion of adoption.*<br/><br/>Dogs adoption fee&#39;s will include vet visit/exam, spay/neuter, microchip, blood work up/dental if vet says it is needed, dewormed, up to date on shots (DHPP and Rabies, Bordetella can be done if requested we don&#39;t do it normally as we don&#39;t have the dogs in boarding, dog parks or high risk locations), Current on 1 dose of flea treatment in case they brought any with them from CA. If anything isn&#39;t mentioned please ask.<br/><br/>Adoption fees vary $300-$500 depending on the dog and medical care needed/required. Adoption fee for each dog will be noted in write up.

Soft Paws Rescue and Rehabilitation- Oregon Branch's Adoption Policy
Every dog that comes through Soft Paws Rescue lives in a foster home. We do not have a physical facility where people can visit and meet multiple dogs. Each dog will be introduced on our Facebook page when it arrives and will then have his or her own profile created and put up on our website. ? The length of time between when the dog arrives and when it is put up on the website varies. Puppies are not typically listed on the website until a few weeks prior to adoption (10 weeks of age). They will be micro-chipped and up-to-date on their shots. Dogs that have behavior or health issues may not be listed on the website for an extended period of time. Healthy, well-behaved dogs typically will be put on the website within two weeks of arriving into their foster home. ? During those two weeks we are constantly assessing the dogs temperament. We need time to be able to determine the dogs quirks and what type of permanent home will be ideal for the dog. We do not have a waiting list nor do we accept adoption interest for a dog prior to him/her being listed on the website. Adoption is not based on first come first serve and we review ALL applications prior to selecting an adoptive home. ? Applications are sent via email or downloaded from our website, Please answer any and all applicable questions and tell us why your home would be the best place for this pup to go. Typically, for any given dog we receive upwards of a dozen applications and reviewing them all is a tough task. ? Once your application has been submitted, please be patient. You will receive an automated email confirming it was received. If your application was selected as a potential adopter, we will notify you and begin the approval process. We will talk to your family over the phone/Text, get clarification on any questions we may have will also answer any of your questions. We request to inspect your home Via in person or Photo's/Video's to ensure its a pet-friendly, safe environment for the dog. Not all dogs have the same needs so we don't have a generalized "standard home" in mind. ? We require you to bring your current dogs to the fosters home (or nearby park) for a meet and greet. We do not ship or transport our dogs without observing an introduction. Adopters from out of town are absolutely encouraged to adopt from us but will need to make the road trip to Oregon or California, to meet the dog, and most likely take it back home with you that same day, if all goes well. If you're not sure which dog would be the best fit, email us and we can help guide you in the right direction. ? If your application is not selected, we don't think any less of you or your home. Most likely we had eight out of ten amazing options and yours just unfortunately wasn't the one we picked. Please stay in touch with us and let us help you find the perfect addition to your family. We will notify you if the dog is currently pending adoption and then again when the dog is adopted. You can also follow our Facebook page for updates on the dog you're interested in. ? Once that pup has joined your family don't ever hesitate to reach out to us. Training questions, medication questions and anything in between are encouraged. We thank you for coming to Soft Paws Rescue to adopt your next dog. We think very highly of our dogs and enjoy sharing them with the world. ? For specific questions, please contact us.
