Dog of the Week: 2 Fur 1 this week, meet Lulu and Nala! These Doberman sisters are owned by two sisters that came to us wanting well mannered dogs that they could take anywhere and do anything with! Nala and Lulu came to us wearing muzzles, needing recall and manners on the leash. After board and train these two girls are able to go out together and in a pack, they have lots of energy and love to play but are able to relax and settle. They are quite the dynamic duo ✨ and we can wait to see all the adventures they go on this summer!

Dog of the Week: Meet Sam! This sweet shepherd girl is finishing up her board and train with us soon and she has come so far! She came to us for dog aggression and reactivity and now she is happy as a clam to be around other dogs! She loves to run and play and her obedience training has had some major improvements as well! She has great manners, she walks on a loose leash, she recalls, places, sits, stays and downs! We can’t wait to see how amazing Sam does once she goes home to her loving owner!

Dog of the Week: Meet Cole! He is a young German Shepard / husky mix with lots of personality! ✨ Cole’s loving owners came to us after rescuing Cole not long ago and they wanted to create a strong foundation in his training to set them up for a lifetime of success. He used to counter surf, pull on the leash and bark non stop. Cole is doing our board and train program and he is doing wonderfully! He is now quiet throughout the day, he doesn’t jump up on anything or anyone, he walks on a loose leash, recalls to his name and loves to play with his dog friends! We know his dedicated owners will do a great job at home when he is done at board and train!

Thanks for the tag Heidi Quiring! Check this post out.

Hi, my name is Robin! Great Northwest German Shepherd Rescue of Oregon pulled me from a kill shelter and now I’m available for adoption at Newberg Animal Shelter.

I am a 3-year-old German Shepherd female who weighs a healthy 60 pounds. I am spayed and up to date with shots. I am cheerful, house-trained, and good with other dogs. I don’t have much experience with cats. My friends at Newberg Animal Shelter say I am inquisitive and sweet.

I am currently at Marvin Pierce Dog Teacher, learning all my skills and training. I have very high energy and would be a great companion for an adventurous and active family.

If you are interested in meeting me, the shelter is open Tuesday through Saturday 11am – 6pm, (summer hours). My adoption fee is $350.

If you’d like to schedule an appointment, go to newberganimals.com to fill out an application and send an email to [email protected].

I hope you will be my new furever home!

Meet Dog of The Week: Whisky wood! This spunky puppy is about 4 months old, here for the Puppy Board and Train Program. He is spending two weeks with us at the ranch currently, learning how to relax in the crate, starting recall, learning to have good manners and of course spending lots of time socializing with dogs and people. Whisky is also learning a fun party trick: skateboarding 🛹 Once Whisky is a little older his owners will have him come back and do the traditional 3 week board and train where he will really hone in on his obedience, follow along to see his progress and skate tricks!

Meet Dog of The Week: Balto!
He came in for help with some serious aggression towards animals, especially when on the lead, dog reactivity, ran away if he had the chance, pulling on the leash and had some separation anxiety. During his time with us he’s learning to relax around dogs, getting acquainted with his social skills in the pack & he is able to walk by dogs without explosion. His owners of course want what’s best for Balto but they also considered the safety of their neighbors pets which deserves an honorable mention for being not just good dogs owners but good neighbors too. We can’t wait to see the progress that he continues to make once he gets home to his dedicated family! 🐾

Dog of the Week: Meet miss Nimue! She is a 3 year old standard poodle that is moving to the big apple next spring! 🍎🏙️ She came to us to work on walking on a loose leash for her upcoming city walks. She also needed to learn how to greet new people with manners. Since being here her confidence has increased and her anxiety has decreased a considerable amount. She is doing the three week board and train program with us and she is flourishing! We can’t wait to see how she does with her family after she goes home and how she will do in NYC!
