Meet Bambi! She is a pocket-sized pup looking for her very own forever family. She might only weigh 3 pounds, but she has a personality that fills up an entire room! At 3 months old, she is in full-on puppy mode - curious, adventurous, and ready to play all day long. She is happy, rambunctious and curious about the world around her. She LOVES to play with her toys. She is working on potty training and crate training, and will need her future family to stay consistent with her as she learns and grows.

Animal Information:
At just 1 year old and 13 pounds, this little guy is full of personality! Fester is a Chihuahua mix with an adorably long body, so we suspect there might be a little Dachshund in his family tree.

Happy, playful, and friendly with both people and other dogs, Fester has quickly become a staff favorite. Unfortunately, this sweet boy found himself at risk in the shelter due to overcrowding, so we stepped in to help him find his happily ever after here in the PNW.

Animal Information: Meet Opal. At 8 years old and just 10 pounds, this little Papillon mix is all about the simple things in life: a cozy lap, a little affection, and someone to call her own. Opal is a sweet girl who loves climbing into your lap for some quality cuddle time. She’s friendly with staff and has been kenneled with other dogs, though she tends to get pushed around by her canine companions. We think it’s time this little lady got the chance to be someone’s favorite

Meet Harper! This 4 month old chihuahua mix is such a fun and affectionate girl. She
loves to play tug of war with her foster mom, but also plays really well with toys on her own. She’s really snuggly too. She has been exploring the outside world from the comfort of her puppy stroller as she isn't fully vaccinated yet - s
he is very curious about everything, but busy streets still seem a little bit overwhelming. She takes a minute to warm up to new people, but once she knows you, she is your absolute best friend.

Meet Blanco!

Blanco is an adorable Poodle mix boy, around 1 year old and about 12 lbs. He is a hoot!

Blanco is a friendly boy, he likes kids and he likes other dogs. He is a happy and social fella. he is no couch potato and is a very active and bouncy boy. He can play all day and then some. He is not suitable for someone with older dogs or someone who is not physically active. Blanco needs a yard to play in and plenty of walks and adventures. We have not seen him with cats.

Blanco is vaccinated, neutered and chipped. His adoption fee is $450

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. We're not sure what his breed mix is but possibly a Chihuahua mix, likely with quite a few other breeds mixed in (Jack Russell? Collie?).

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!

Meet Yowie! This 8 week old terrier mix pup is just the cutest little girl. She is so fun and full of playful energy, and is having a blast with her two siblings in their foster home. She is just a baby and is working on all the puppy things - potty training, crate training, etc. but is young and adaptable. She will need a family who is patient and supportive of him as she learns and grows into a happy and healthy adult dog. She would love another canine sibling in her furever home, but would also do ok with an active family ready to help burn some of her puppy energy. Yowie has received her first round of vaccines, microchip, and will be spayed as part of her adoption agreement when she is at least 6 months old. Her adoption fee is $525.

Welcome Blanca to CCPAL Rescue. She is a 2 year old Rat Terrier mix. She came in from a hoarding situation. We received 3 dogs from this case. One was adopted already and one had to go to a specialized trainer in another Rescue. Blanca has started opening up and allowing people to pet her and hold her. She never got any attention in her original home, the hoarder. She is good with other dogs and causes no issues. She is kennel trained and her response to being afraid is to run and hide. She is a timid girl and not the social butterfly. She would be perfect with a person that is more introverted and wants a pet that is also similar. Blanca would be satisfied being at home with you all the time. A small walk in the yard would be fine. She until now, has not walked on leash. She is learning to do it at our Rescue. She would like a patient owner and a quieter home. An older couple or older single person would be great. Someone with a quieter home. She would be fine kenneled away if you had a party or people over. She is not very vocal and prefers to blend into the woodwork. She is really a great dog for the right family. She is getting her vaccinations, nail trims and will be spayed soon and ready for her forever home. She could be adopted locally in Texas or we could work with one of the wonderful transporters to get her to Washington, Portland, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. Her adoption fee is $400 and transport is $200. . Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states.

Meet Sammy! This four month old pup is cute as can be. He is mostly potty trained (as long as he goes outside consistently), is good with other dogs, and loves all people! He sleeps through the night in his crate and does well alone for a few hours at a time. He loves toys and bones of all kinds. Sammy is working on learning about the world and he will need continued support as he is initially nervous about new places. Sammy's ideal family will be patient and supportive of him as he continues growing and building confidence. He would do best in a home with another friendly adult dog to help show him the ropes and be his pal as he grows up.

Meet Biggins!

Sweet Biggins came from a rather neglectful situation and lived on outside on a property with a lot of other dogs. He is doing so well in his foster home and is ready for his forever home.

Biggins is around a year old and about 12-14 lbs. He is a calm and lovable pup. His favorite activity is cuddling and being around his people. He enjoys exploring outside, playing with other dogs and older children. He is potty trained and walks well on a leash.
He is crate trained for night time but has some separation anxiety and prefers to roam around in a bigger space if home alone. If you are looking for a best friend, he’s your guy.

Welcome Daisy to CCPAL foster program. Daisy is a 4-year Frenchie (French Bulldog). She has been a breeder dog and the breeder is no longer going to use her so she is now looking for her forever home. This awful in our eyes, but we are happy to find Daisy a real forever home where she can be loved and cherished and doted on. She is a wonderful dog. She is good with other dogs, potty trained, not too active, not too vocal and does good with children. She is getting her spay surgery with CCPAL. She is current on vaccinations and will also get her heartworm test. She has lived in a house so she knows the rules and structure of living with a family.

Animal Information: Bug is just an itty bitty "pug mix" that found herself in need of rescue. Who were we to say no? We are confident that little mug will get a lot of attention, and can't wait to meet her!

Foster Profile:
Bug was named by my kids, and it turned out to be the perfect fit! She may be tiny (2lbs right now!), but she’s absolutely full of spunk. Bug loves chasing her furry foster siblings around, even though they’re all significantly larger than she is. Her favorite companion is our Doberman, and it’s hilarious watching her run as fast as her little legs will carry her just to keep up with him as he casually walks across the lawn.

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.

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. They are likely Chihuahua mixes, around 6-7 months old and about 8-10 lbs. They will grow to about 12-14 lbs as adults.

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.

Meet Autumn!

Autumn is a darling pup who came to us with her two siblings Pumpkin and Chai. These adorable siblings did not come from great beginnings but are doing wonderfully in their foster homes. They are likely Chihuahua mixes, around 6-7 months old and about 8-10 lbs. They will grow to about 12-14 lbs as adults.

This little sweetheart has such a fun and loving personality. She’s playful, energetic, and enjoys being part of whatever is going on. She’s also affectionate and loves getting attention. She’s at that fun puppy stage where she’s learning new things every day and would make a wonderful addition to a loving home.

Animal Information: Merv was brought into the Stanislaus Shelter as part of a hoarding case. He was living in a home with 30 dogs, and not being cared for. Despite having never left that property before, Merv was sweet with shelter and veterinary staff. We were happy to give him a ticket to a better life here in Seattle, and can't wait to get to know him

Foster Profile:

Merv is getting neutered on 11/4 and will be available for adoption after recovery!

Meet Sparky!

Meet Sparky, the absolute sweetest couch potato you’ll ever meet! This charming, 8 year old boy has the perfect balance of senior chill and youthful fun.

Why Sparky is the perfect catch:

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).

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.

Meet Rocky!

Sweet Rocky is a prize! This lovely 5 year old Pug/Chihuahua mix is looking for a forever home.

He is an incredibly sweet and snuggly boy, who likes dogs and children. He does not love being alone and will want to be with his humans as much as possible. He is good on a leash and loves long walks, is house trained, and sleeps well at night in his crate (dream dog!).

Rocky is vaccinated, neutered and chipped. His adoption fee is $450

Welcome Maverick to CCPAL Foster Program. Maverick is a 4-year-old Chiweenie. He weighs about 19 pounds. He is good on a leash, good in a car. He is potty trained and very loyal to his person. He knows “go for a walk”, “stop”, “leave it”, “It’s the neighbor” and a few other commands. He is in a home and the owner is having some very big financial issues and need to find Maverick a new home. Maverick has some allergies to food and the food that he can is a Duck and Potato kibble. He has some allergies to grass. He has taken Apoquel successfully to handle the allergies. He warms up slowly and is very loyal and bonded once he has bonded. He would be great for a senior couple or single wanting a companion. A nice yard for him to get exercise in would be nice or someone that could have the time to take him on a couple of walks would be great. He isn’t the social butterfly that some dogs are so a matching owner would be the best fit. He would be a great dog to alert you to someone at the door or something being off in the environment. He is good on walks and would help a senior be more active. He is in Texas and can be adopted locally or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. He could go with children but we would like them to be teens. I think a quieter home would be best for this boy. His adoption fee is $400 and transport is $200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states.
