Polar is a 15-month-old cattle dog, born to a rescue mom at Misspits Rescue. He was adopted by our founder and gets to live his life here at the farm. He loves swimming, fetch, chasing things, rolling in stinky stuff, and me!

Roo: Iโ€™m officially 1.5 years old now and it's my first fall with my family - love me a season that celebrates my fav foods! Though I miss swimming in the summer sun, I love the extra cozy cuddles Iโ€™m getting at home during these crisp fall days after running my tail off at the park!

Whiskey: This is the closest to a costume that Whiskey will consent to. The bandana style clips similar to a collar and she accepts that. Whiskey just turned two years old (human years) a few months ago or 24 years old in doggy years. She is mostly blue heeler with about 12.5% Australian Shepherd mixed in, but she is 100% cow dog!

Barrett is a vicious spider with 12 legs looking for a corn stalk to be spooky in. We were lucky enough to get him in our web from the Everett Animal Shelter.

Cowboy Tock loves hiking with his sister Hachinko and taking care of foster puppies when we have them.

Lake may be an Australian Cattle but deep down - sheโ€™s all about chilling! Here she is rocking her Hawaiian shirt! This Halloween she is ready to be a laid back island gal. So donโ€™t expect any treats, trick or treaters! Lake will be too busy kicking back (and also probably eating all the treats! Lake is a 7-year-old and came to us from Lake Oโ€™ the Pines, TX by the way of . She enjoys doing biiiiiig belly stretches for scritches and teaching her foster siblings from where all the comfy spots in the house are.

This silly lilโ€™ guy still needs a forever home! Pendletonโ€™s trainer, , has an update on his training progress!
โ€œPendleton is a rockstar at obedience and he would probably love to be involved in a sport like agility or tag along on a hike.
Pendleton is working on his dog reactivity and tries to go after cats, so he will need to be the only pet at home. Fearful dog experience is a huge plus, and his family will need to be committed to continuing his training & his meds.โ€

๐Ÿพ๐ŸŒŸ Adoption Pupdate! ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿพ

โ€œFox is the sweetest, gentlest boy. When we brought him home in December of 2022, we expected a difficult transition. He doesn't trust many people, and we thought it would take him a while to warm to us. We couldn't have been more wrong - from the very first day he came to us, he's been attached to my hip! He follows me wherever I go and always finds the coziest spots to curl up.
He still struggles with reactivity to new dogs and people, but he seemed to understand that we were his family from day one and didn't mind sharing space with his brother, Bunji. He's also made significant progress in his journey with reactivity - going from major blow ups every time we saw a dog on walks to looking to us for reassurance and recovering quickly. It's an ongoing process, but we're incredibly proud of how much progress he's made in the last year and a half. He is ridiculously smart, and will pick up new tricks or commands within a couple of tries.
He loves to camp, hike, or snuggle up with the family. Fox isn't the perfect dog for every home, but he's the perfect dog for us. It's been a privilege to watch him grow his confidence, learn to trust, and show all of his quirks. We're endlessly grateful to PNWCDR for caring for this special boy so well and bringing him into our lives!โ€

"Hi everyone, I'm Rowan. I'm looking for my forever home and adventure buddy. At just over a year old, I am FULL of puppy energy. I could play fetch with you all day. As long as I'm by your side I'm a happy camper. If I do have to home alone, I'm still well-behaved as long as I have a puzzle or a bone. I love hiking and camping, UTV rides, and I'm a beginner kayaker. I sleep in the backseat during car rides. I am cuddly and playful with my person but understand you need your space. My favorite game is to catch and eat flies.

I need to RUN off-leash for a minimum of 1.5hr everyday. I'm super smart too so I need toys, puzzles and training to keep me happy and healthy. My heeler loyalty also comes with a healthy dose of that heeler protectiveness. Strangers or other dogs are really scary. I will snap, bark, growl, and very rarely bite to keep them away from my person. I need a forever home that will be dedicated and consistent with my training, someone who is experienced with working breeds. I have my obedience training down and I am eager to learn, so my foster mom thinks I have a chance. Her cat looks tasty though, so I need to find a home ASAP. I am losing my foster home in October and if I have no choice but a shelter, I will likely be euthanized. It's not my fault I didn't get socialized and trained as a puppy. I'm a good dog, I just need the chance to prove it."

๐Ÿพ๐ŸŒŸ Adoption Pupdate! ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿพ

We have a Pupdate on Vivid, one of our foster fails!
๏ฟฝโ€œVivid came from a horrible situation and we were told he had a bit of a "wrap sheet". When we first got him, he was terrified and would not even look at us. It was obvious he was abused and afraid of people. Slowly we built trust with him and he began to open up.
Today (two years later) Viv is a total Velcro dog who loves hiking, playing fetch, biting waves, barking at the mail man, and laying on the couch. He now helps to welcome in other PNWCDR foster dogs and show them the ropes. His fear of people and his anxiety have greatly diminished. Although he didn't have a great start at life, today he's living out his senior years doing all his favorite things!โ€

Our Story

Pacific Northwest Cattle Dog Rescue is a non-profit organization based in Skagit County, Washington. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate & rehome cattle dogs and heelers from animal control groups, shelters and owner surrenders.

As a foster-based rescue organization, we rely on the generosity and dedication of our volunteer network. All of our dogs live in foster homes where they are part of the family until they find their forever home.

We offer courtesy listings across our social media to owners who wish to keep their dog during the rehoming process. Submit a courtesy listing request here. Owners interested in surrendering a heeler to PNWCDR can submit a questionnaire.

We seek to rehome cattle dogs coming out of states with a higher density of the breed, such as Texas and California. We are building partnerships with shelters, animals control groups and transporters across the west.
