Meet Harper! This 4 month old chihuahua mix is such a fun and affectionate girl. She

5. Hootie
Adult (7 years) · Male · Corgi / Mixed (short coat) · 21 mi from Black Diamond




Meet Hootie!
Sweet Hootie is around 7 years old and about 30 lbs. He is a little on the plump side and could lose a few pounds but we don't judge... We're not sure of his breed mix but he has a Corgi look to him. Super cute!
Hootie is a very sweet boy. He loves other dogs, is great with kids and good with cats. An allrounder! He walks nicely on a leash and does well in the car. His only fault is that he is a velcro dog - he likes to follow you around the house so be prepared for some prying eyes when you're in the bathroom.
Hootie will be vaccinated, neutered and chipped. His adoption fee is $450

6. Chance
Adult (3 years) · Male · Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 21 mi from Black Diamond





Meet Chance
Chance is a 3-year-old, 65-pound pitbull mix who's part cow, part puppy, and entirely goofy.
He was found as a stray and ended up in an overcrowded California shelter. He's found a soft place to land in his foster home in Snohomish, WA, where he's living with two other dogs. He's also being exposed to farm animals, and the many smells and sounds that life out of the shelter has to offer.
Read more about Chance
This guy is pure joy! He's confident, loves people and other dogs, and he greets every day like it's the best one yet. He's a puppy in a grown-up body, with medium energy, plenty of silliness, a stunning black-and-white coat, and soulful eyes that will melt you on the spot.
Chance is crate trained and sleeps through the night without a peep. He's working on his house manners and on keeping his excitement in check, but he's smart, eager to please, and a quick, willing learner.
Because of his size and enthusiasm, a home without young children would be the best fit, ideally one that will include him in adventures, daily enrichment, consistency, and training. We don't yet know how he feels about cats.
Chance is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $450

Young (1 year 1 month) · Male · Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat) · 21 mi from Black Diamond







Meet Sid!
Sid is a playful, affectionate pup with lots of love to give! He is around one year old and around 17 lbs. He gets along well with other dogs and people, and he’s quick to form bonds with new humans.

He loves playing with toys, finding sticks on walks, and spending time with his furry friends. While Sid has plenty of playful energy, he also has a sweet, cuddly side. His favorite place is anywhere next to his human!
Sid is still young and learning, but he has a lot of patience!

14. Pumpkin
Puppy (6 months) · Female · Chihuahua / Beagle / Mixed (short coat) · 21 mi from Black Diamond





Meet Pumpkin! This 6 month old chihuahua mix is curious and very playful. She can be cautious and shy with new people or situations but opens up quickly and builds confidence fast. She loves playing with other dogs and would thrive in a home with another small dog to play with and snuggle with. She is always happy happy happy and makes everyone smile when she’s bouncing around and giving kisses constantly. She does really well in her kennel for meal times and when left home alone for a few hours at a time. She sleeps all through the night. She is still working on potty training but is extremely motivated by treats, so is getting the hang of it. She’s not a purse chihuahua and doesn’t like to be carried around much in general, but will follow her foster family all around the house and loves to be nearby chewing on a yak cheese or throwing a toy around entertaining herself. She has mastered the skill of guarding the porch from squirrels and Amazon delivery people and barks fiercely (in chihuahua) to let everyone know she’s doing her job, but doesn’t bark excessively at nothing.

15. Chai
Puppy (6 months) · Male · Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat) · 21 mi from Black Diamond




Meet Chai!
Chai is a sweet little guy who came to us with his two siblings Pumpkin and Autumn. These adorable siblings did not come from great beginnings but are doing wonderfully in their foster homes.

Sweet Chai is full of puppy energy and loves to play and explore. He’s curious, happy, and always up for a little fun. He also has a softer side and enjoys attention and cuddles. He’s still learning about the world around him and would love a family to grow up with and call his own.
Read more about Chai
Chai can be a bit timid about the world and it is best for him to be in a home with a yard. Walking busy city streets is not comfortable for him right now and he needs to build some confidence before he can navigate those kinds of settings. He probably would do best in a home with another social dog so he can continue to learn from those around him.

Why Sparky is the perfect catch:
Read more about Sparky
• Lap Dog Extraordinaire: He is pure, absolute love. He starts off a little squirrelly and energetic when he’s excited, but once he settles onto your lap or the couch, he is home for good.
• Dog-Friendly: He gets along beautifully with all other dogs and loves having furry friends around.
• Crate Trained: He is great in his crate! He might bark or whine for just a couple of minutes initially to say he's settling in, but once that's over, he is quiet, excellent, and good for the night.
• Mostly Quiet: He will bark occasionally at normal things—like loud sounds outside or the doorbell—but the vast majority of the time, he is incredibly quiet and peaceful.
• Healthy Routine: He eats and drinks excellent, and he has fantastic potty habits.
• Undeniably Cute: Just one look at his adorable face and you'll be smitten.
Sparky is the ultimate companion for someone who wants an affectionate buddy to share their couch, their lap, and their heart.
Sparky has terrible teeth and is scheduled for a full dental. He will also be vaccinated and chipped. His adoption fee is $395

18. Gus
Young (7 months) · Male · Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat) · 21 mi from Black Diamond



Meet Gus!
Sweet Gus is a 7-8 month Chihuahua mix pup and weighs around 8-9 lbs.
Gus is a very playful puppy who has blossomed as he has come out of his shell. He is timid around new people and needs a little time to warm up. He would do great with another dog who can show him the ropes. He is house trained and sleeps through the night but does occasionally mark - this should be improved once he is neutered (he is scheduled for this).
Read more about Gus
He loves toys and treats but people are his favorite and he will be your little shadow around the house. He is crate trained and we have left him alone 4-5 hours with no issues. He can guard high value treats like bones but does not show this behavior with treats of lower value. He will do best in a home with older kids (over 12) for this reason.
He is wary of loud or unfamiliar noises and will sometimes bark at them so he would do best in a home or townhome.
Gus will be vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. His adoption fee is $525

19. Mickey
Adult (3 years 1 month) · Male · Shih Tzu / Mixed (medium coat) · 21 mi from Black Diamond


Meet Mickey!
Mickey is an adorable 3 year old Shih Tzu. He did not come from a place where he was well cared for and arrived with us quite neglected. He is doing well in his foster home and is ready to find his forever home.
Read more about Mickey
Mickey needs a little bit of time to trust you, but once he does he’s a very cuddly and affectionate boy! He loves to push his face into your chest and gently nibble on your hands, which is very endearing.
He loves playing indoor fetch with soft toys and actually brings them back to you to throw again! He’s treat motivated and doing a great job learning commands. He walks very nicely on leash and enjoys exploring the neighborhood.
When there’s nothing else going on, he’s quite happy to nap on the couch or in his dog bed. He sleeps quietly through the night in his X-pen, where he also does very well being left alone for a few hours.
Mickey had a few potty accidents during his first week in foster, but none since then. He occasionally barks at noises outside, but he quiets down quickly.
He rides very well in the car, and he did great with a fear-free groomer who went slowly and gained his trust.
Mickey would probably do well with one or more doggie companions and possibly with cats. He came from a home with two other dogs, and he got along well with them when we brought them together for a reunion.
The biggest challenge for Mickey is that he distrusts men. After 4 weeks with us, he still sometimes growls at his foster dad, but only when he is left alone with him. We suspect he would come around to a male adopter more quickly if there were another confident dog in the home to reassure him that he is safe. He would probably struggle in a home where there are frequent male visitors.
Mickey is not well suited for a home with kids. He will find their movements too unpredictable.
Mickey is vaccinated, neutered and chipped. His adoption fee is $450

Adopting a dog in Black Diamond
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
