Successful Other Small Breed Adoptions

(Adopted Nov. 4/05)
Bosco
Black and Tan Dabble Dachshund
Male/neutered/shots current
18 months old

Bosco is a lively though not obnoxious little guy. Loves to go for walks and car rides. He does not  pull on the leash but ready to go. He is thin but will put on weight. He is a voracious eater, eats morning and night. He has a favorite bone and his own bed, which he does not sleep on... Likes to sleep in the people bed. I have crated him during the day and he seems to be okay with that. He apparently was crated earlier in his life. He likes kids, dogs, and cats. He does not like rain, typical doxie, but if I walk with him he will do his business outside in the rain. He will need retraining on potty rules. I don't think the previous training was consistent enough for him to get the picture. And doxies can be difficult anyway.
Bosco is not a fussy eater, likes treats, rawhides, chasing a ball or toy. He will play with a squeeky by himself.  He is a sweet dog, will try to play with my dogs but will back off if told to. He comes when called, probably would be food motivated.  Would love to have another dog to play with him or a person.
He is very barky when you enter the home, but does settle down.
Just a very nice little dog. Would be fine in any home as long as he gets play time.
Bosco is now living a wonderful live in Coquitlam, B.C. Canada

Not real sure on what her mix is..except SO CUTE...
She is happy, fun loving, playful, sweet, darling, easy going, intelligent, loves people, loves other dogs..she is WONDERFUL...don't hesitate to adopt this girl, she is exceptional...
 She is housetrained.  This is a nice girl, if she has no people all day, she would do best if she had a doggie pal, or if people are home, than she may be alright to be doted on.  She is energetic, so she needs an active home, but easily settles down for her naps and lap time.

Sassy
Pomeranian
Female/spayed/shots current
12 lbs
* sadly her wonderful owners had to say their final  good-bye to this adorable girl, who had complications from Graves disease, she crossed to the bridge in March/2013, she had two awesome men who adored this precious girl*

Not only was I adored by my Mommy, I was her service dog, alerting her to seizures, I guess I was unable to help her the last time.  Mom was giving me a bath, and no one is positive what happened, either a stroke or a seizure, but my Mommy keeled over and drowned in the tub.  I miss my Mommy so much, I went everywhere with her, stores, doctors offices, absolutely everywhere, if you saw my Mom you saw me.  I went for walks everyday, and I if I got tired, Mom would put me in a baby stroller, I loved that:-) I do a few tricks too, I roll over, pray, crawls, plays dead, Hi 5..but I only do this for treats:-)
I don't like to be reached for fast by strangers, and I really don't want lil kids around, I will leave.  I paw the floor when I have to go potty, but I also paw the floor at night, cause I am used to getting a piece of cheese before bedtime.  I am a good girl and love to give wet kisses.. I will make the right person a perfect friend..oh and before I forget I love to be brushed.
Darling Sassy got two wonderful Dads who she adores, and they adore this "sassy" little girl, now residing in Seattle, WA

(Adopted Nov.17/05)
West Highland Terrier
Male/neutered/shots current

It is hard to believe this gorgeous boy, is almost 10 years old, but according to his AKC papers, his birthdate is Dec. 12/95.  Booker lost his home, when the resident children would not stop pulling his tail, and he finally snapped.  Booker is having a hard time adjusting to foster care, there is a strong chance he is used to being the only dog, and now has to contend with 6 other terrier type dogs.  He follows his foster parents everywhere, and stays close to them, but is not readily accepting pets yet, he wants attention but is holding himself back.  Prior to going into his now foster home, he was just an angel with grooming and being around people..so we think it is the other dogs that is making him uneasy.  He appears to be possessive of his toys at this time, no problems with food.  He is completely housetrained, and ignores the resident cat.
Booker will do best in a home possible with another Westie, or low keyed dogs..as he spent a couple of hours with my Shih Tzu, and had no problems with them. The foster home has taken Booker out walking and visiting and he is wonderful with everyone, away from all the other dogs. 
Adult home only, and Westie experienced home preferred.
Booker now has a doting Dad, who I think needed Booker as much as he needed him.  Happily spoiled in Anacortes, WA
