Dogs for Adoption in Wauna, WA: 20 Dogs Looking for a Home

Evie is a darling young girl. She came to us via a local puppy miller, very pregnant. Her mama duties are done, she's vetted, we've gotten to know her outside of being a mama and it's her time to be someone's baby. She is sweet, fairly active and good with dogs. She loves affection and attention but doesn't quite understand this lap dog stuff and won't stay there long. She looks like a perfect mix of toy poodle and maltese but she's the wrong color. There was a havanese with the same coloring so she may have some of that too. Her coat is maltese fine but curlier and her tail curls like a cinnamon roll, tight and sits straight up on her back.
She is still learning to be a house pet. She is not house broken nor crate trained. If left too long without trips outside, she will soil in the home or her crate. She doesn't necessarily use the provided puppy pads either. Her new family must be able to continue to help her with these things. She is not leash trained either so that will need to be worked on. And this also means, a securely fenced yard is required, no exceptions. No younger children in the home either.
We have her on a good grain free, chicken free food (as all maltese should be on due to them being prone to allergies with both) and she's doing great. She's been groomed twice now, once the day we got her and recently before her spay. She was a matted, stinky, long nails and flea infested girl when we got her. We never want her in that condition again. Please provide your groomers name and phone number on our adoption application if you would like to apply for her.

Prior to adoption, our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped and parasite treated/prevented.

At three years old, Arlo has so much love and companionship to look forward to. He deserves a family who will offer him patience, kindness, and the stability of a permanent home. Whether sharing quiet moments together or simply enjoying the comfort of being part of a family, Arlo deserves to experience all the wonderful things that come with being someone’s cherished companion.

Could you be the special person who gives this precious little boy the happy ending he deserves? ❤️

Foster Profile:
May is a very loving girl and just wants to jump up and give kisses. We're working diligently on not jumping. She's very smart and seems to have potty training down and has not had an accident inside while I've had her. That being said, I do have a doggie door so she can let herself out, but I'm confident she will learn quickly to ask to go out, especially if she as an older dog to show her the ropes. She likes her crate, and will put herself in the crate to nap. I have it in my bedroom and she has not cried at night at all. She sleeps 8 hours without incident. Leash training is a work in progress, but with continued training she will catch on fast.

This little (NOT) girl has stolen my heart in just a few short days and will steal yours as well.

Foster Profile: Ringo is such a sweet puppy! He is happy, playful and loves affection. Everything is new to him, including human attention, so he likes to step back and observe before he gets comfortable in a new situation. He loves his bed and crate as a safe space. He also LOVES toys- he gets every toy he can find and carries it to his favorite spot to play. So far, he has been interested in playing but respectful with the resident dogs who mostly ignore him. He is picking up quickly on the routine of life in a home, he observes and approaches everything with caution. He is gangly with his long legs and the cutest explorer. Potty and crate time has been going great! He is a big boy at almost 30 pounds at 12 weeks old!

Foster Profile: Uncle Fester has officially arrived in the PNW and is quickly becoming a favorite! Fester is a happy-go-lucky boy with the typical puppy zest for life. Fester will benefit from continued training, but is quickly settling into his foster home. He loves to play and is learning that not everything is a chew toy, walks are fun, and is settling into his crate time nicely.

Foster Profile: Rascal was understandably a little unsure when she arrived to DGS. She needed an extensive dental procedure to extract 4 teeth that had become unviable due to an old fractured jaw. Our vet believes she had blunt force trauma to the jaw but she has taken it all in stride, offering nothing but affection to everyone she's met. She's social, not dominant, and playful with other dogs. She loves to play with Philo who came from the same property. She has taken fantastically to crate training and has no observed resource guarding tendencies. We will share more info about her as we continue to get to know her.

Foster Profile: Hwyn is a love bug. She came to us from a horrible situation, shut down and scared. In a few short days she is a completely different dog. Out going, friendly, loves her dog siblings and our kids. She is completely nighttime potty trained and with regular potty breaks doesn't have any accidents. She is a dream to walk on a leash, doesn't pull and just happy. She will curl up in your lap and nap which won't last long because she will be a big girl. We are working on sit and not jumping or counter surfing. She is a puppy and has a lot of puppy energy. Whoever adopts her is going to be so lucky because she is going to be an amazing dog.

Foster Profile: Arvis was a little fearful at first but is showing she is resilient and wiling to learn. She loves calm respectful kids and her playful side is coming out. Arvis is as sweet and gentle as they come! She loves her toys.. some would say she is a bit of a toy hoarder but in the cutest way possible! She has a very gentle mouth and loves some good belly rubs! When she first came to us she was scared, and could use some help building her confidence. When she met our resident dog, she lit up as she was so excited to see another dog! She gives the sweetest kisses and snuggles and is close to playing with him, so we see that developing while she builds confidence. She is crate trained and sleeps thru the night without a peep! House training is going well. She lets you know she needs to go out by sitting by the back door and does her business quickly once let outside. She is going to be the best family dog!

Animal Information: Chester is a 5-year-old, 24lb "norfolk terrier" mix (according to his records). He was brought into the Stanislaus Shelter as a stray in late September of this year. Unfortunately, no one came to claim him, which put him at risk for space in an overcrowded shelter. Lucky for Chester, the shelter staff advocated for him and he earned a freedom ride to the PNW! Chester is friendly with people and was tested well with other dogs. We look forward to getting to know him!

Foster Profile: Chester is the definition of a happy-go-lucky boy! Since day one with his foster, he’s loved to be included, play, and been the best house guest. Chester is potty trained, leash trained (and responds well to correction), meets strangers happily, and has decided the candy corn rope toy in his foster’s home may be his favorite thing in the world.

Foster Profile:
Argie is a small terrier mix who's confident and playful. She enjoys a game of tug, is happy to meet new people, and loves running around the yard. She lives in a foster home with big adult dogs, and even at her tiny size, she holds her own playing alongside them. Argie is a bit of a sassy girl looking for someone to teach her fetch and help her with manners like staying in her crate until released and walking politely on a leash. She's a bright, energetic puppy who will be a great addition to an active home.
