Welcome Josie to CCPAL Rescue. Josie is a Chug (Chihuahua/Pug) puppy. She weighs 4 pounds and is 9 weeks old. She will be a small dog full grown. She should be 12 pounds or less. She is very sweet and has an adorable rounded head. She likes to be held, is good in a crate, goes on a wee pad and loves to play with toys. She was born at the Rescue.

8. Blanca

Adult · Female · Rat Terrier (short coat) · 6 mi from Marysville

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.

Welcome Daisy to CCPAL foster program. Daisy is a 4-year Frenchie (French Bulldog).

11. Cleo, a small 1-year-old Jiggy

Adult (1 year 6 months) · Female · Italian Greyhound / Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 14 mi from Marysville

THE VIP EXPERIENCE: Are You Ready to Be Cleo’s "Chosen One"?

If you love a dog who makes you work just a little bit for her affection—knowing the payoff is a fiercely loyal, snuggly best friend for life—Cleo is looking for you!

Read more about Cleo, a small 1-year-old Jiggy

Meet Cleo, a breathtakingly unique, pocket-sized "Jiggy" (Jack Russell Terrier / Italian Greyhound mix). Cleo isn't a dog who hands out her love to just anyone on day one. She doesn't do superficial greetings or fake enthusiasm for strangers. Cleo is an exclusive-membership kind of girl. But once you earn her trust and cross that velvet rope into her inner circle? A completely different side of her blooms, and she will shower you with her entire heart!

We’ve leaned a bit too much into her "independent, cat-like" description in the past, but make no mistake: Cleo is a deeply loving, velcro-loyal dog once she knows she's safe. She is ready to find that one special soul person who appreciates a sensitive, brilliant little dog.

✨
The Cleo VIP Perks (Once You're Selected):

The Ultimate Snuggle Buddy:
When she decides you are her safe haven, Cleo transforms into an absolute lovebug. She will curl up as tightly as possible against you, shower you with kisses, and soak up every bit of one-on-one couch time.

The Terrier Spark:
She has that fun, confident Jack Russell personality wrapped in an elegant, sensitive Italian Greyhound body. She loves structured games and dedicated quality time with her favorite human.

Polite & Family-Friendly:
Cleo does really well with children! They just need to understand her VIP status: introductions should be calm and quiet, allowing Cleo to approach them at her own elegant pace.

Cleo's Perfect Sanctuary:

A Peaceful Household:
Because of her sensitive Italian Greyhound roots, she thrives in a low-traffic home. Her behavior consultant recommends giving her a designated "safe suite"—a cozy crate with plush bedding or a quiet corner where she can take uninterrupted royal naps.

Dog Dynamics:
She happily coexists with dogs her own size, but she does have that confident Terrier leadership spark and prefers to be the dominant female queen of her castle.

The "Staycation" Lifestyle:
Cleo gets a little carsick and nervous at the vet, so she prefers a homebody lifestyle. She’s looking for a family who will keep car trips short, use natural calming wraps, and plan fun activities right at home or in the yard.

Cleo is healthy, spayed, and waiting for the right patient match to change her life. If you want the deep, unmatched reward of being a sensitive dog's absolute favorite person in the world, apply for Cleo today!

Adoption Fee:
$450.00 (Includes spay, microchip, and up-to-date vaccines)

12. Pickles

Female · Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Black Mouth Cur (short coat) · 6 mi from Marysville

Welcome Pickles to CCPAL Rescue. Pickles is a 2 year old. She is a small Terrier/Black Mouth Cur is our best guess. She is a medium sized dog that weighs 28 pounds. She is full grown and she was found on the streets with her puppies. She is a great momma dog. She is friendly to people she knows and trusts and warms up slowly to new people. She will be a great alert dog for an older couple or someone that is home alone and wants to feel that the dog has your back. She has never shown aggression but she does bark when things are out of the ordinary or someone she doesn’t know has arrived. She would be best for at least a moderately active family. I would think someone with a more quiet home that wants a loyal companion to join the group. She has a short coat and not a huge shedder. She is good with other dogs and has been off leash with a number in play groups here at CCPAL. She can be adopted locally in Texas or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get her to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. She is getting spayed soon, all her vaccinations, heartworm negative and will be ready for her forever home in a week or two. 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.

13. Priscilla Prissy

Puppy · Black Mouth Cur / Labrador Retriever (medium coat) · 6 mi from Marysville

Welcome Priscilla “Prissy” to CCPAL Rescue. Priscilla is a 10-week-old sweetie. Lab/Black Mouth Cur mix is our best guess. She should be a medium sized dog 28 pounds or less. He is sturdy and has longer legs then her stubby legged brother. Her mom is Pickles and she is also medium sized. She is getting lots of attention at the Rescue and she is social, good with other dogs, good in a crate, learning wee pad manners and is over all a very nice puppy. The kennel staff usually bathe and clip toenails on a regular basis as well. She will be fine with grooming. She has a soft fluffy coat and adorable expressions. She was found as a stray with her mom who is Pickles. She is getting all 3 sets of his puppy vaccinations and will be spayed soon. She can be adopted locally in Texas or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get her to Washington, Portland, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. Prissy would be fine in a family with children. We like them to be 8 or older. A puppy is always best with someone that is not gone all day every day. A puppy needs to bond with his humans and to go places to remain and grow up to be a well-rounded dog. Priscilla will also need to finish her puppy training. She would be great in a doggy daycare as she gets time playing off leash with other puppies her size. Her adoption fee is $600 and transport is $200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states.

We think full grown would be 25 pounds or less. She is beautiful and looks a lot like her mom. She was fun to take photos of at the photo shoot. She is good in a crate, good with other dogs, playful and sweet. She is smart and trusting of people. She would be great with a family that is moderately active to highly active.

Adopting a dog with children in Marysville

Bring the whole family to meet the dog before you adopt, and ask the rescue how the dog behaves around children your kids' ages.

Teach children to let the dog come to them, to stroke gently, and to leave the dog alone while it's eating or sleeping. Give the dog a bed or crate of their own to retreat to, and always supervise young children with a new dog.

Relaxed adult dogs are often a better match for young children than puppies, which jump up, nip and chew while they learn.
