Elderly Scruffy Dog in Portland Area Needs a Home

I haven't kept up on this blog for a long time, but this one is really tugging at my heart strings...

Pearl is a 12-year-old German Wirehaired Pointer who has somehow ended up at the Clackamas County animal shelter. She looks a bit like a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon to me... but I don't know her story. At least not yet. All I know is that I will do what I can to help find her a warm, safe home to live out her golden years.

If you live in the Portland, Oregon area or anywhere else in Oregon, Washington, California or Idaho, please tell your friends. I'm in contact with a group of folks who are willing to help get this girl to neighboring states.

Canine Valentines

My heart skipped a beat when I saw Darlin. This sweet, scruffy dog's owner passed away. He looks like Baxter's and Kirby's parents got together...!

Gordon

Scruffy

Gordon... what a sweetheart! With Wirehaired Pointing Griffon in there, he would be!











And Scruffy is another heart-melter!  At 11 pounds, he's the perfect lapdog.

Harry

Last, but not least, Harry. It sounds like he has some emotional issues to sort out, which probably make him a little harder to adopt. So while I usually like to feature dogs who are ready for family life, I wanted to give Harry here a little shout out, because sometimes the ones who need a little more tender love and care are the most appreciative of all!
