Update: Closing applications for puppies to process the ones received.

Guess who is coming to Seattle! Eight 5 and 6 month old beagle puppies. These puppies were sent to rescue from a breeder that considered them excess inventory. There are tri’s, lemons, and even a red beagle. More pictures will be posted here and on our website as photos are received..

Pre adoption meet and greets will happen after the holidays, but if you have been hoping for a puppy, go ahead and submit your application. If two people have interest in the same puppy, and all other factors are equal, the first application will get priority .
General guidelines for puppy homes are someone home most of the time, a fenced yard, and a dog friend. However if you think you can provide everything a puppy needs and are missing one of these, submit an application and talk with us.

Billy update:

Billy is still looking for a home. We know the right person is out there for Billy so please keep sharing.
One of our volunteers has been visiting Billy in boarding and has fallen in love with him. Sadly, she is at the limit on dogs in her home. Everyone at the facility thinks Billy is a great dog.
Billy loves the volunteer’s visits. He enjoys his walks and playing with toys. He’s happy to chase a ball, but don’t expect to get it back.
If you would like to meet Billy and see for yourself, please complete an application.

🐾 Meet Billy – A Dog Who Deserves a Second Chance 🐾

Billy is a smart, active, and eager-to-please boy who’s looking for the right forever home. He’s had quite a journey:

💛 The Backstory:

Billy was in a Missouri foster home with no issues but had a biting incident with his SBR foster mom.
A vet exam revealed inflamed and painful a**l glands, which the vet and trainer believe caused his reaction.
His a**l glands have since healed, and Billy has completed a professional training program where he learned many commands and "words."
🏠 What Billy Needs:

A child-free home with an active owner who can continue his training.
While he’s best as the only dog, Billy may do well with dogs his size or smaller if his owner is experienced and introductions are done properly.
Billy isn’t comfortable with larger dogs.
Billy loves to work and would likely excel in competitive sports or other activities where he can use his energy and intelligence.
🎓 We’re Here to Help:
To help Billy transition, we’re offering a one-hour session with his trainer so his new owner can learn all his commands and set him up for success.

Billy is currently in boarding, but it’s not where he belongs. He needs a forever home where he can thrive and show his true potential.

Can you or someone you know give Billy the chance he deserves? Please share to help this incredible dog find his match.

🐶 Apply today and let Billy be the loyal, loving companion he’s meant to be!

Paddy is still looking for his home. This handsome 30 pound, three year old beagle is a breeder release dog. Before coming to foster, he had never lived inside, slept in a soft bed, walked on a leash, or played with toys.
Paddy is soaking up new experiences and learning so much. He loves his twice daily walks, and is a true nose to the ground hunter.
Paddy loves his toys. His special favorite is a crinkly alligator.
He has learned “sit”, and responds to his name. That’s an accomplishment for a boy that lived his first three years without a name.
Paddy needs a securely fenced yard, because if he finds an escape route, he is going to follow his nose. He will also need a dog friend. As with many breeder release dogs, he has only lived with a pack and needs the security of another dog. He hasn’t lived with cats but based on his nose to the ground instinct, we suggest no cats in Paddy’s new home.
Paddy would love to be home for Christmas. Do you have room for Paddy in your home and heart?

Lexington is one lucky guy!! If not for a call from one of our volunteers to Lexington’s owner, he was scheduled for euthanasia this week.

Lexington has been listed with us for a while, but he’s 10 and his owner said he has frequent inside potty accidents , in the owner’s opinion because he’s mad about not enough attention, and that Lexington has separation anxiety, so Lexington hasn’t attracted any applicants willing to work with him,
Last week an application came in for Lexington, so an adoption volunteer called the owner to discuss. The owner said they were tired of cleaning the carpet and had Lexington scheduled for euthanasia.
When we heard that, we put out a plea for foster and in a short time, a volunteer said “ I can’t let this senior die for having accidents in the house.”
The foster brought Lexington to her home that afternoon.
Now here’s the interesting part. Lexington has had zero potty accidents in the foster’s house. He displays no separation anxiety, he gets along with the other dogs, he likes toys , and every single person that meets Lexington is in love!
We don’t understand how anyone would choose to end this sweet boy’s life.

Here is what Lexington’s foster mom says:

If it weren’t for all his grey, you’d never be able to guess Lexington’s age. This smaller-than-normal beagle is such a happy guy. He walks around wagging his tail, and has even greeted us with excited zoomies when we arrived home. He loves to squeak toys and will self play, tossing them around. Is always happy to go for a walk (although he slows down pretty quickly), and really loves to snuggle and be loved on. And he seems to love everyone.

He has barked to be let out to potty and seems to be housebroken, although being a senior he just may want to go out more frequently than a younger dog — although he’s fine overnight and has been ok for 5-6 hour stretches during the day (haven’t tried longer yet).

He does bark. His vision may be a little impaired because he does bark at shadows/things that aren’t there and at noises outside. And he does bark for a bit when someone leaves the house, or if you move rooms and he doesn’t know where you are. So an apartment may not be the best choice.

He does fine with the dogs in our house. Mostly just exists near them.

He is a really, really sweet dog. He would just love a family who wants a companion to give him love and attention for the rest of his years.

Meet Toddy! This beautiful copper nose beagle is about 22 pounds and just over a year old. He sure would love a home for Christmas.
Toddy was an owner surrender to a Kentucky shelter. He spent some time in a Kentucky foster home before traveling to Washington. He lived with cats in his foster home and was great with them. Toddy is learning so much in his Washington foster home. He’s been working on sit and will now sit nicely and wait for his food bowl to be placed. He is practicing leash walking and has made such great progress, he has advanced to trail walking. ( on leash of course) Toddy would be a great walking/ hiking buddy for a family that enjoys outdoor activities.
Toddy loves other dogs and would benefit from a dog friend and/or an active family,
Toddy rides well in the car. He loves to play with toys.
The family that adopts this young guy is gaining a loyal friend. Toddy is smart and learns quickly. Complete an application and see if Toddy is perfect for you.

Operation Frodo organizers and volunteers are working diligently to have everything in place for a successful transport beginning December 15th.
If you would like to be a part of helping some beagles and puppies in need travel to Seattle, Oregon, and Utah in search of their forever homes, please look at the wish list.
We are currently in most need of harnesses and treats. Some of these beagles are escape artists, and others may be fearful, so well fitting harnesses are crucial.

Meet Billy – A Brave Pup Looking for a Second Chance! 🐾

This handsome beagle boy has had a bit of a rough start but is ready to find his forever home with someone who can give him the love, patience, and understanding he deserves.

Recently, Billy had an unexpected health issue with infected a**l glands, which led to some pain and discomfort. This was likely the cause of a few incidents where he reacted by biting, especially if someone got too close to his behind. Now that he’s been treated, and after a thorough vet check-up, we’re hopeful that his behavior was a response to the pain he was experiencing. However, because we can’t be 100% certain, we want to be upfront about his history.

Billy does have a mild tendency to guard his food, and he’s currently in a two-week training program to help him feel more secure and comfortable. We would ask that foster, or foster to adopter meet with the trainer as well.

If you have a big heart, a love for beagles, and the ability to work with him on his journey, Billy could be the perfect match. He deserves a patient, loving home where he can feel safe and understood. If you think you can give him that, please reach out to learn more about his progress and adoption requirements.

Let’s help Billy find a family who’ll support him through every step. ❤️
