🐾 Happy 🐾

Meet Trout (formerly known as Bobby)! 🐶 Trout was one of 9 puppies born to Mama Winnie in early 2024, rescued as tiny newborns living under a truck. Fast forward 7 months, and this lucky pup hit the jackpot with his amazing family in Oregon! 🎉

He’s living the ultimate adventure dream—exploring more of Oregon than most of us ever will (lol!). Big thanks to his incredible mom, Abby, for giving him such a wonderful life.

Here’s what Abby says about her adventure buddy: “Trout is phenomenal, he is silly and so sweet. Everyone that meets him loves him. He has excelled in coming along mountain biking and we have started back country skiing with him- he loves the snow! Not a mean bone in his body- so good with all sized dogs and my cats. Here are some photos: he’s 60 lb! My little adventure man and he’s so good everywhere we go! Oh and he loves to sleep in crazy contorted positions on his back.”

Swipe to see Trout living his best life!😍

We are absolutely amazed and filled with so much gratitude! We want to extend a big “MUCHAS GRACIAS” to the wonderful veterinary clinic, Evergreen Veterinary Hospital in Salem, Oregon.

Happy Willow! 🥳 We are celebrating your happily ever after and here is what her family has to say about their sweet girl….

“She loves the sun and being warm and will sit outside all day if it’s nice out. She loves when we play with her lamb chop (the first toy we bought her oà) by throwing it, racing her to it and letting her beat us, then chasing her while she runs with it in her mouth. She has learned and grown so much in the year that she has been a part of our family. Watching her learn to trust and love us has been so rewarding. She is an absolute joy — a curious, stubborn, tough, sweet natured, intelligent, totally neurodivergent lil baby who fits in beautifully with us. Everyone who meets her loves her and she has fans across the city. She is an absolute star in daycare at .pdx , beloved by dog and human alike. She steals the show wherever she goes with her gentle and sweet demeanor and, let’s be honest, her cute little face. Now that we’ve moved out of our little apartment and have a house with a yard for her, she’s really begun to understand that this is her turf and we are her family. I’m so happy with how far she’s come and so excited to see what the future brings.”

Happy Banzo! We are celebrating your happily ever after today! Here is what his family has to say about their sweet boy…. “We adopted Banzo from the in December of 2023. He is a former street dog from Guadalajara and somehow was up for adoption for months without any applications until us! He was found as a puppy and is now about a year and a half old. From the moment he arrived, we were best friends He has adjusted so well and gotten great at walking on leash which is something he had never done before. I work part time at a doggy daycare and I love that Banzo gets to come to work with me! He really loves playing there with his doggy friends. He’s also great around cats and overall just the best little guy ever! He is my emotional support animal and I love him so much. Banzo loves going on walks every day, snuggling with me and napping, and playing and doing enrichment puzzles. His favorite vegetable is carrots, he is obsessed with them! He’s a smart little guy and so far he knows “sit” and “wait” and I am hoping to teach him some more commands soon.”

Please share and help Barry find his furever family! He is located in Portland, Oregon!

Barry
4 years old
18 pounds
Poodle
Neutered
Microchipped
Up to date on all vaccines
Cats: no cats
Other dogs: Yes, but best with mellow calm females.
Kids: over 10 years old

Barry is a lovely, albeit complex little guy. He rarely barks, he is relaxed in the car, he is very smart and very food motivated, he has a moderate energy level and is happy to nap much of the day, but definitely enjoys long walks and is good on leash, he doesn’t destroy things or mark in the house when left alone, fireworks and thunder are not a problem, he can be silly and makes us laugh a lot.

Apply to adopt Barry online: www.BAPBR.org

Foster home needed in the Portland/Salem/Vancouver area - Barry flew to Portland from Guadalajara (where he was rescued off the streets in bad shape) and went into a foster to adopt home in Portland, but unfortunately after 10 months Barry is not a good fit due to his distrust with the man in the house, so we are now looking for a female only home for Barry!

Barry
4 years old
18 pounds
Poodle
Neutered
Microchipped
Up to date on all vaccines

Barry is a lovely, albeit complex little guy. I’ll start with his awesome qualities: he rarely barks, he is relaxed in the car, he is very smart and very food motivated, he has a moderate energy level and is happy to nap much of the day, but definitely enjoys long walks and is good on leash, he doesn’t destroy things or mark in the house when left alone, fireworks and thunder are not a problem, he can be silly and makes us laugh a lot.

Barry’s challenges: Barry does not trust strangers, and has fear issues with men – he would need a female-only household, and will take time to warm up to new people. He has boundaries around being touched and his trust can be earned by respecting them.

Barry’s ideal caregiver would be someone who is patient and gentle, preferably with experience with a more challenging dog, and knowledge of dog boundaries, body language and trauma.

Barry would do best as the only pet in the house with no young kids.

Meet Abba! 🐾 This grey-eyed beauty with elegant long legs and floppy ears is our dog of the week.✨

With her unique looks we were dying to find out what her genetic makeup would be.. and lo and behold—she came out to be 100% American Village Dog!

“American Village Dog” is not a single breed per se but rather a wide group of free-ranging dogs indigenous to the American continent. Having said that, they are quite rare, making up less than 1% of dogs tested on Embark!😲

They go by many names (“satos” in Puerto Rico, “potcakes” in the Bahamas) and have a diverse range of appearances, but one thing that they share in common is their incredibly sociable and friendly nature. 💕And this is certainly true for Abba who, according to her foster, is affectionate, loving and gets along with everyone (cats, kids, dogs, you name it).

Stay tuned this week to find out more about this special gal!

ADOPT ME - Calling all dog lovers!!! PLEASE SHARE - We are desperate to find Vicky an adopter! She is not happy in foster care with 12 other dogs and it’s taking a toll on us all. Vicky has been with us for over 6 months. She is about 2.5 years old and 9 Ibs. She does not shed! We aren’t sure of her breed, a Yorkie Mix. She is very independent. No separation anxiety. No medical issues. Loves to go on walks. She loves her toys and antler chews. She can be left home alone and is not destructive. She is crate trained. She is a very easy, loving, cuddly, companion dog. She currently lives with 12 other dogs in foster care and can coexist with them, but does NOT love having the dogs in her space (although she does have a favorite BFF in foster). She would be happiest as the only dog. No cats - she will chase them. She is wonderful with people (kids over 7 years old please). If you want to adopt Vicky, please apply online at www.bapbr.org - Vicky has an opportunity to fly to Portland on January 13th, if we can find her a home, PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!
