14. Dillabough / Tribal
Puppy · Female · Labrador Retriever / Australian Shepherd / Mixed · 3 mi from Westminster




General Notes | With her striking white coat and unique merle markings, Tribal is a true work of art who stands out in any crowd! Additionally, being double merle, she is deaf, so if you have loud kids, or play in a punk rock band, she could thrive! ; ) She's super playful and is a tiny little spitfire. Her current favorite game is toy/not a toy, and she's exploring the world by putting everything in her mouth. Her second favorite game is "where can I snuggle" and shes approaching professional cuddler status. She's making fast progress on potty training, settles quickly in her kennel, chills out on car rides, and adores other dogs.

15. Costa / Pierogi / Pogi-bear
Young · Male · Labrador Retriever / Terrier / Mixed · 3 mi from Westminster




Meet Pierogi: Part-Kangaroo, Part-Survivor, Full-Time GoofballLook, Pierogi has seen some things. This 35-pound, perfectly medium-sized wonder started his life roughing it in the woods, battled (and beat!) parvo, and endured enough poking and prodding to last a lifetime. So yes, he might be a little shy when you first meet him. But give him time to realize he’s safe, and this pup transforms from a timid wallflower into a goofy, stick-collecting, kangaroo-hopping professional cuddler.The Stats on This Perfect-Sized SidekickClocking in at a solid 35 pounds, Pierogi is the ultimate fun-sized companion.
Read more about Costa / Pierogi / Pogi-bear
He comes complete with a set of wonderfully unique, chaotic ears that have a mind of their own. He’s fully potty trained, crate trained, and has recently decided that leash walks are actually fantastic. Activity-wise, he’s a solid "moderate." His favorite hobbies include turning the yard into his personal treasure hoard by collecting every single stick and ball he can find, and showing off his impressive pouncing skills.The Ideal Home: Pierogi is looking for a very specific vibe for his forever home. First and foremost, he needs a confident doggy sibling. He currently spends his days wrestling and playing games of canine Twister with his 60-pound fluffy foster sister, and he relies on doggy friends to build his confidence. He is submissive, takes cues like a champ, and absolutely thrives on canine companionship.Cats? No problem at all. He completely respects his feline foster sibling and fully understands who the real boss of the house is.Kids? Because of his rough start, sudden, unpredictable movements spook him. He’d do best in a quiet, low-traffic home with older, chill kids who understand that he needs a minute to process the big wide world.If you have a little patience, a playful resident dog, and a lap ready for premium snuggles, you just found your boy.

Bringing a dog home to your cat
Tell the rescue about your cat: their age and how they react to dogs. A dog who has lived calmly with one cat may still want to chase a cat that runs.
Introduce them slowly. Keep them apart for the first few days and swap bedding so they get used to each other's scent, then let them meet with the dog on a leash, rewarding calm behavior.
Make sure the cat can always get somewhere the dog can't reach, like a high shelf or a room behind a baby gate, and keep the litter box and cat food out of the dog's way.
