Dogs

Breed: Dachshund Chihuahua Mix
Age/Sex: 7 years old / neutered male
Weight: 15lbs
Considerations: Is incontinent and requires a low impact lifestyle.

Do you have what it takes to be a part of Chewey’s journey? This lovable goofball is ready to put up his paws and relax in a lap of luxury. This boy loves to be spoiled with couch cuddles, big windows to bird watch, and treats to gobble up. Chewey’s incontinence requires that his bladder be expressed every 4-6 hours during the day. If you have any questions about bladder expression please ask an Emerald City Pet Rescue employee. Chewey can live with other mellow dogs but would prefer a cat free and adult only home. Please consider adopting Chewey.

Special Considerations: Chico has no medical concerns.

Meet Chico! This older guy is super sweet and easy-going, but also loves to zoom around the yard with his foster brother. He appreciates a slow approach but once you’ve gained his trust, you’re in for good. Chico loves his people and cuddle time. He gets along with other small dogs but can be reactive on walks, so he needs someone who is willing to work with him on his confidence outside the house. Luckily he’s very treat motivated and likes to please! He would do well with gentle children 6+. If you’re looking for a mature little man who still loves to play, call about Chico today!

Chico is current on vaccines, neutered and microchipped.

Considerations: Hilda will require ongoing care for orthopedic issues.

Meet the ever-so-sweet Hilda! Having an extremely rough start to life, Hilda has her sights set on a forever home. Hilda will need ongoing care and monitoring of her orthopedic issues stemming from extreme malnutrition from puppyhood (the previous malnutrition also caused extreme hair loss, so you'll notice her hair is starting to grow back in!). However, Hilda wants families to know that she can still snuggle, kiss, and gobble down her hypoallergenic treat faster than you can say “Hey, where did that treat go!?!”. Hilda loves to play with other dogs and can learn to live with cat friend. Hilda would love to sit next to you on the couch, or walk leisurely with you around the neighborhood to explore the sights and smells together. Consider opening your home to this wonderful pup!

Special Considerations: Ike takes medication for anxiety.

Meet Ike! This energetic boy LOVES his toys. He often runs around with his favorite fish toy in his mouth, even though they’re the same size. Ike may be small, but he has a big presence. At the rescue, he is wary of new situations and has shown fear-based reactivity towards both people and dogs. Ike will need a slow approach before he trusts you, but once he does, he is very snuggly. Staff have found him happily burrowed under blankets when he’s relaxed. He gets along with cats and a few dogs, but would do best in a home without children. If you are looking for a tiny guy with a lot of character, Ike is your man!

Ike is current on vaccines, neutered and microchipped.

Pumba is ALWAYS happy to see you, ALWAYS excited to play, and ALWAYS FEELS HIS FEELINGS IN ALL CAPS!

Children and adults in the house should be sturdy because no one has told this big goofy guy that he is almost 100lbs! Pumba is under-socialized with other dogs (he gets TOO excited to see them) so would do best as the only pet in the home. Consider bringing this lovable lug into your life.

Considerations: Taffy needs to be in a house with a fully-fenced and secure backyard; apartment style living is not a good fit for him. He thrives on daily anxiety medication and will benefit from work with a private trainer to help him overcome his fears.

Terrific Taffy needs somebody to love. The path to Taffy’s heart is paved through a steady routine, listening to his cues, and stockpiling his favorite toys and treats. Taffy will try to scare off new humans he meets with his tough guy voice but he settles once he gets to know a person well enough. Underneath it all, we know he is a big softie looking for a family that will make him feel safe. Taffy loves other dogs and would prefer an adult only household. If you want to adopt Taffy, make sure you also have room for his favorite tiny unicorn toy.
