Here are some dogs and cats from Multnomah County Animal Services, who are in need of a loving home.
Luna
Breed: Pitbull, American/Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Young
Hi my name is Luna so pleased to meet you. My family was unable to keep me so here I am starting over. I am a young lady only 1 years old and weighing in at 52 lbs. I have a lot to learn but my heart is open and I am ready to improve. I have a bit of a reputation for knocking down youngsters so if you have a young family be prepared to get my manners polished quickly or the youngsters will start avoiding me.
Won't you ask about me today?
Monkey
Breed: Domestic medium hair/ mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Hey there, my name is Monkey and I am about 10 years old. I came to the shelter with a nasty wound on my leg, but after some surgery and time out in a foster home I am ready to move on to a family that will love me forever. I am a friendly girl, on my terms of course. I prefer to have all four paws on solid footing, so I'm not the kind to be toted around in your arms, but I really like to socialize and get my share of petting. They think it was a raccoon that got the best of me, so consider keeping me inside only, where the raccoons can't get me.
Sheldon
Breed: Pitbull, American/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Young
Hi my name is Sheldon and I'm a white and black male Pitbull mix about 10 months and I weight 55 lbs. I'm part puppy, part silly young teenager, not entirely sure about the world and my place in it just yet. I'm active and looking for a home with no small animals. The shelter wants my new owners to take me to an obedience class that uses reward based training methods so I can continue learning to be a good companion in my new home. They are offerring a discounted adoption if you come with proof of pre paid classes. I came to the shelter with a torn ACL, which has been repaired but still in my recovery. My recovery will include restricted activity for 6-8 weeks, which means crating and leash walks only! If you are interested in viewing me please ask the information desk.
Maple
Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Maple is a plump and lovely tabby girl with white accents. She is affectionate and calm, though can be a bit reserved with strangers and new places. That sure sounds smart to us, a girl can't be too careful! Maple enjoys her feathery toys and catnip, and likes to top off playtime with a nice soft lap and some rom-com on tv. Maple is 10-years-old and already spayed. Talk to your adoption counselor about introducing this delicious treat to your family!
Chewy
Breed: Chihuahua/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
I am a studious and quiet sort of gentleman that is seeking the same in a new home. I would like nothing more than a comfortable lap, quiet strolls in your neighborhood and to be your snuggle buddy. I would prefer a home with no kids or at least respectful older kids and adults for that matter, who aren't interested in disturbing me. You see, I have some skin issues that are making me uncomfortable and a little intolerant of things like touching my tail and looking at my teeth. I however very much enjoy a good scratch along my back! With a good quality food and monthly flea control, my itchies will go away so my hair and skin can improve. Do we sound like a match?!
Jasmine
Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Jasmine is a sweet girl who has overcome some major medical issues. She came into the shelter with neurological issues and unable to walk after presumeably being hit by a car.. She has been with me close to 4 months, in which I've gotten very attached. Each animal I fall in love with and keep is one less foster I can bring into my home, so I decided to be fair to her, and the person waiting to make her the center of their universe. It's time to let her find that furever home. My family and I adore her. We have a funny name for her... When she was unable to walk and showed no emotion, I was laying with her and said; "come on Jazzy, make muffins or something." So the name Jazzy Mcmuffin was born, and that's what we call her, Jazzy Mcmuffin. It's so silly I know, but it makes us smile. She's super gorgeous, has the most beautiful eyes, and is a very calm kitty. She would prefer a quite home, with no children, due to her fragility and shy nature. She gets along with other cats just fine, but I don't think a home with dogs would be ideal for her. Jazzy is about 10 years old and is currently in foster care.
Marley
Breed: Miniature Shelter Dog, American/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Hello, my name is Marley and it is nice to meet you! I am one of those great little dogs who is looking for a new family. Sadly I have already been through this once and am hoping you can be my place to retire. I've been social with my shelter friends and also the k-9 friends! Please come down and meet me. I am around 4 years old and weigh 13 pounds.
Eliza
Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Elderly
Good day everybody! Miss Eliza here! I have come to find myself in quite the predicament and need your assistance! I am a lovely older lady in need of a new place to call home. A nice family had helped take care of me for a little while, but I couldn't stay forever. They did say that I was good with their children and cats in the home! I will let you know that dogs do scare me so maybe not a home with a dog? Sorry to be so particular, but us older ladies will do as we please! I am about 12 years old and spayed. Please come inquire about me today!
Big Bruce
Breed: Pitbull, American/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Hello, I am Big Bruce and I am one amazing dog. I am house trained and will let you know when I need to go out. I am perfectly kennel trained. I am a mature gentleman and won't eat your shoes - all that I ask is that you have a few bones and my blankie for me to suck on (yes I have a favorite blankie). I am quiet in the house. I enjoy car rides and running around in the back yard. I am a mellow guy, but I need to shed a few pounds and hope to go on walks more. I like to cuddle and don't know my own strength. I am about 5 years old and I weigh 115lbs.
Cee Cee Bo
Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Hi my name is Cee Cee Bo and my mom had to give me up when we became homeless. I lived with another cat and we got along fine. I was not so happy with the dog in my home. I am best suited for an older family so the shelter suggests families with children 10 years or older. I am approximately 6 years old, weigh about 7.5 lbs.
