Dog of the Month

Meet Troy: October Dog of the Month

October 14, 2020

Troy is a wonderful boy - affectionate and very sweet, but he does have some insecurities. Troy is a broken leg dog and it has left him with some residual pain and sensitivity issues. His pain issues are well managed with daily meds. He has come a long way with the help of some wonderful folks at Crawford Canine Connection.

Troy is affectionate and a big time leaner, but doesn't like to be overwhelmed or overhandled. He will need an adoptive home who is dog savvy, patient, willing to go at Troy's pace and will continue his training using positive training methods. Troy needs to use a ramp to load and unload into/out of a vehicle and we are happy to provide that to his new family. We will provide 3 training sessions so he can continue to get acclimated in his new home with positive training methods.

Troy will need a quieter home with a fenced yard and no children. He would love a canine companion - preferably female, but he has done well with many male dogs as well (he is turned out with another male greyhound at the moment and does fine). He will need a home without cats.

The ideal home would be a local Woodinville area home. With a little patience, this boy will reward you ten fold!!! He has made HUGE strides and is just a love. Contact us for more information and to come and meet this wonderful boy.

The Pawsitive Alliance in the #WhyNotMePets campaign in conjunction with the KOMO 4 Seattle Refined show! Thank you Pawsitive Alliance and KOMO TV for helping Troy find his forever home! Learn about Troy’s story here:

Breed: Greyhound/Saluki
Date of Birth: Approx May 2019
Color: Off White
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: See Comments
Kid Friendly: Unknown
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments: Oden and Oscar are brothers and came to us from the UAE. They are delightful together. Very much the puppies who like to play, run, wrestle and explore. Oscar is perhaps the more independent of the two. These two are fun, fun, fun!! They will need an active home and someone who is willing to work with them on training. They will need a home without cats. We have not had them out with other dogs, so we don't know how they do with dogs they don't know.

Comments: Oden and Oscar are brothers and came to us from the UAE. They are delightful together. Very much the puppies who like to play, run, wrestle and explore. Oden is perhaps the slightly quieter and more affectionate of the two. These two are fun, fun, fun!! They will need an active home and someone who is willing to work with them on training. They will need a home without cats. We have not had them out with other dogs, so we don't know how they do with dogs they don't know.

Meet Hero: April Dog of the Month – ADOPTED!!

April 25, 2020

Please contact Moira Corrigan ([email protected]) for more information about Hero.

Hero - ADOPTED!!
Tag No: 6462
Registered Name: VJ Super Hero
Breed: Greyhound
Date of Birth: June 20, 2016
Color: White/Black
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: Ok with greyhounds, No small dogs
Kid Friendly: Unknown
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments: Hero is a fun upbeat boy. He is friendly, outgoing, curious about new things and loves to run. He is Mr. Personality. Hero also enjoys affection, leaning, and hanging with you as well as a good run. Hero had some injuries to some of his toes and one of his toes has been amputated. Due to the injury on another toe, Hero does best walking on softer surfaces and would not make a great hiking buddy. While he has the energy and interest, his toe injury does not allow for long walks and rough surfaces. Hero will need a home without cats or small dogs. Hero would do best in a home with a fenced yard and not an apartment situation where he would have to walk on a lot of hard surfaces.

Comments: Dana came to us all the way from Jerusalem where she was found wandering the streets. She was at the SPCA there for over a year and no-one came to adopt this beauty.

She does well with other dogs and loves people and to be around her people. Dana has lived in a foster home. Dana will need a home without cats.
