OHS Shelter "Dog" of the Week

Ok, so she's not really a dog but a great pet nonetheless. She's been at OHS since 1/23/2008 - that's almost a year! Doesn't it make your heart cry? Poor little bunny - all alone and feeling unloved. :(

OHS Shelter Dog of the Week

What was I doing last friday that I forgot my shelter dog post? Oh, yeah, I was prepping for my first bazaar, which was a bust so I won't elaborate. Here is my shelter dog of the week.



Mesa is a world champion kisser. Sit down with her and all she wants to do is cover your face with kisses to show how happy she is to meet you. Mesa is an older lady with a calm and gentle personality who came to OHS as a stray. She loves to be with her people but prefers interactions on her own terms, so she is looking for a home with children over the age of 12 who can respect her space. Mesa keeps a clean kennel here at the shelter and what she wants most out of her new home is a warm, soft bed and a loving family. Senior dogs are a great choice for families that don't want to deal with puppy antics or overly energetic dogs. Mesa will be content to lie by your side while you work or watch a movie, and accompany you on walks every now and again. This sweet girl has so much love to give and she wants to give it to you; won't you please come in and meet her?

To adopt Mesa visit the Oregon Humane Society. Her code number is 68030.

OHS Shelter Dog of the Week

This week's Shelter dog is Spencer. He's been at OHS since April. Help me find him a new home! Here is his bio:

Are you looking for a pair of older dogs with good manners and loving personalities? Check out Shadow and Spencer! Spencer is a 10-year-old shepherd/chow mix who is closely bonded with his mom Shadow (#65077). He's looking for a home that will give him time and space to play and go for walks but will also keep him in out of the rain; he doesn't like getting his paddy paws wet. He has a history of living with cats and children but would need a slow introduction to cats and older, respectful children to be successful in his new home. A pet meet is required if you have other dogs. Spencer is a favorite around here, and we hope you will love him and Shadow as much as we do.

Here is his mom, Shadow, and her Bio:


Shadow is a quiet older lady looking for a forever home she can share with her son Spencer (#65076). She's a chow mix who is laid back, and will need a quiet home where her new owners will take her for walks (but not in the rain, she doesn't like getting her feet wet) and give her lots of love. She knows how to sit and shake and has a history of living with cats, but would need a slow introduction as she has been known to chase cats that aren't a part of her family. She will also need to meet any dogs you already have before going home with them, and would prefer a home with older children. Shadow is a lovely girl who deserves a warm bed and loving home for her and her son.
