  Tiny, Tiny Package, Sweet, Sweet Girl... Meet Chiquita!   You know what they say about good things coming in small packages. This tiny, 18 month old chihuahua is maybe a whopping five pounds soaking wet, but she's packed with love and fun. She's full of energy, so curious and ready for anything. She's happy to be carried around and would make a perfect purse puppy. Just make sure it's an appropriate purse... I admit I have one for my 9 pound chihuahua who loves to go shopping with me, tucked discreetly away. Chiquita never gets enough of the people around her and loves to be the center of attention. She's still a little leary about other dogs, but she's learning to get along. Give her a treat and she'll do just about anything. She's just had a litter of pups but will be ready for spay...

Jay Jay is a five month old chihuahua/dachshund mix just packed with puppy spunk and fiestiness. He's such a silly guy, curious about everything and he simply cannot get enough playing. Then he loves to settle down, cuddle up and get a good dose of lovin. He's going to need to be taught some manners and needs a home ready to deal with puppy energy. He's got those sharp puppy teeth, too, so would do better with no little children in the home. This sweet fella just may be the baby you've been looking for.   JayJay is doing very well with his housetraining, is crate trained, current on shots, but too young for neuter.  H...

  Laid Back Gal, Ready to be Your Co-Pilot... Meet Suzi!   Miss Suzi is a very sweet, 8-year-old corgi/collie mix with an over abundance of personality. She's going to make someone such a great little companion as she just adores her walks and is an angel on a leash. Suzi also loves her car rides, maybe even very best of all, and will just ride and ride, keeping an eye on everything as she goes.

Suzi is going to be such an easy girl to have around... she is so laid back, completely housetrained, spayed, current on shots and microchipped.

  Charming Older Man, Looking For A Lonesome Lap... Meet Chester!   Chester's is one of those stories that just broke my heart and made me want to hurt the folks who treated him so badly. This poor guy was just recently rescued from a puppy mill where he spent his entire nine years of life being used and neglected. He didn't get the food he should and his teeth were in such bad shape, he had to have all but three removed. His neglected coat is still recovering, but it's growing in nicely and he starting to show how handsome he really is. You would think that would be it for this sweetie, but somehow through it all, he's come out sweet and happy and eager to please. Spoiled by the folks at the shelter now, he's opening up and showing his true spirit. He loves kids, other dogs, cats and m...

  Happy & Not Yappy, Quiet & Clever... Meet ZiZi!   This very sweet girl has spent most of her life up until now living outside and now is her chance to find the kind of life she deserves.... and now so craves! When she arrived at the shelter, the indoors kind of confused her, but now she realizes it's the way to go! She is such a cuddler and loves her belly rubbed. She is the queen of charming and smart to boot. She's already learned so many things. ZiZi is going to make someone an incredible companion, especially someone who lives alone and would love this sweet girl to follow them around. ZiZi also gets along well with other dogs and even cats. She's a chihuahua mix, a tiny girl, who would love to be carried around, too.

    Super Smart, Big, Goofy & Friendly... Meet Scooby Doo!   The kind folks at the shelter gave this guy the name Scooby Doo because he reminded them of that famous one with his goofy, but friendly demeanor. He's also a little mischievious. The poor pup has lived a lot of his 9 months on the streets, eating garbage, leaves, whatever he needed to just to get by. That also means, he never learned basic manners. But he is beyond smart and is already picking up so much especially since he is super motivated by food and the need to please. This sweet guy, luckily enough, didn't become street hardened and is a softy at heart, just looking for his "Shaggy" to love forever. Scooby seems to be some kind of a shepard mix and is going to make someone such a fun companion who will always make you s...

  Two Older Gals Looking For A Home Together... Meet Maisy and Sadie!   Maisy and Sadie are two older girls who have not only been together most of their lives, but are the very best of friends. They are so close, in fact, that they will only be adopted out together as they simply couldn't bear to be separated. When not together, they are noticeably depressed and won't even eat, then they're estatic when reunited. Maisy is a border collie mix and is still pretty active and playful. Sadie has slowed down a bit more, but is happy and calm, content to watch her buddy play. Both are in decent health, but have slowed down with age so need to go to a calm home. They'd make great companions for someone, especially someone older, as they are such sweet girls with lots of love to still give. Bot...

  This Sweet Girl is Destined To Be Your Lap Dog... Meet Ellie Mae   Ellie Mae is a 1 to 2 year old chihuahua mix who is quiet and shy, but oh so sweet. She likes to watch the others play first, then slowly joins in. Then she has a ball, proudly struting around, enjoying her friends. Ellie Mae is happiest when she's cuddled safely on a human's lap and she is the nap queen! She was found with another shelter dog, Indie, and plays especially well with her as the two seem well bonded. They can be adopted together or separately, however, as both seem to be taking to the other dogs and tolerate being separated well. This sweet girl just needs a little TLC and attention to give her confidence, then she's going to make someone a very special companion. Ellie Mae is spayed, current on shots, mi...

  One Cool Guy, Up For Anything... Meet Guiness!   This guy is one of those pups I would love to take myself if only we didn't already have FOUR rescued dogs. But he just seems so perfect, so ready to fit seemlessly into some lucky person's life. Guiness is a 2 to 3 year old rottweiler/hound mix, who is about 70 pounds. He is about as smart as they come and already knows tons of commands, but the best part is that he's so devoted and eager to please. He maintains eye contact beautifully and focuses so well, he's going to be an incredible companion for someone. Guiness especially loves fetching a tennis ball and he loves, loves, loves the water. Almost as much as he enjoys a good belly rub! And just look how handsome this guy is. The folks at the shelter also report that he has a heart o...

  The Hood River County Fair is Here! July 25 - 28th We could smell the kettle korn, carnitas and hay before we even went in the gate. Then we heard screams of kids on scary rides, bells ringing as someone wins a game and a rooster crowing somewhere nearby. Colorful banners floated in the wind and lights flashed on the rides and food booths. Yep, the fair is here! There's something almost magical about a fair in rural small towns. And this year did not disappoint. The Hood River County Fair opened on Wednesday, July 25th and runs through Saturday, July 28th. It seems like everyone in a small town gets involved, volunteering in booths, entering jams and quilts, dozens of local kids show animals, artwork and clothing. The fair is quintessential small town at its best.  And this year, the ...

  So Frisky, With Plenty of Moxie, This Girl's All Puppy... Meet Bambi!   If you're looking to go the puppy route, Bambi just may be the girl for you. She is just about 10 weeks old, a chihuahua/dachshund mix and weighs in at a wee 5 pounds. She's a tough one, though, and loves to run with the big dogs... well, any dog at all, that is. This tiny girl was found living under a barn with her mom so maybe that tough start gave her the courage and confidence to take on the world. She's a frisky one, so she needs a home ready and willing to teach her manners and deal with puppy training. Bambi is such a sweet girl and loves to cuddle and get plenty of attention. She's too young for spay, but is microchipped and current on shots. The adoption fee for Bambi is $235, plus spay deposit, cash or c...

  Goofy & Playful, This Guy Will Make You Smile... Meet Rokie!   If you're new to our blog, we write about a local shelter dog each week and have for over a year now. Of the 60+ dogs we've featured, all but one have been adopted. Let's keep that up! As mom to four rescued shelter dogs, I urge you to adopt a shelter dog, don't buy from a breeder. The Hukari Animal Shelter currently has 17 dogs, the most I've seen in the 2+ years I've been involved with them. If Rokie doesn't strike a chord with you, there's sure to be another pup who will capture your heart. Check them all out: www.hoodriveradoptadog.org. Rokie is just the sweetest Golden Retriever Mix, is around five months old and weighs in at 40 pounds. If those huge paws are any indication, this guys got a lot of growing to still do....
