Australian Shepherd and Alaskan Malamute Dogs Available for Adoption

Dan is being fostered in Beaverton, OR and he is available to meet!

Dan was picked up as a stray in a rural town we help and taken to the shelter. He was going to be euthanized because the shelter was full, but thanks to one of our fosters, we were able to save his life. Now, Dan has completed his veterinary care, and he’s ready for a forever home. He’s a great boy who just needs a chance.

Dan has already learned some basic skills. He can sit on command, and he walks great on a leash. He loves other dogs and has done well with kids as young as six.

We think Dan is a Cattle Dog mix and he is estimated to be 2 years old. He weighs 40 pounds.

Dan is neutered, vaccinated for rabies, DHPP and Bordetella. He is also heartworm negative, microchipped and is current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.
