Waxillium

What my friends at Oregon Humane say about me:

• I have been working with the Behavior and Training team here at Oregon Humane for consistency and am looking for a special home. It will take time and patience to get to know me. You'll need to meet with me multiple times before taking me home.
• To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.
• I love to learn! You can use my favorite toys or treats as positive reinforcement and to teach me new things. I already know some basic cues such as, sit, stay, & crate, and I'm putting in the work to learn how to walk nicely on leash.
• I am used to living an active lifestyle! I would love to get up and go adventure with you.
• High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.
• I am sure to wiggle and waggle my way into your heart.
• Resource Guarding: I have a history of guarding my people, food, toys and/or bedding from other animals or people.
• In my last home, I did great in the crate!

The type of home I'm looking for:

• My energy and size can be a lot for little kids, but I would do great with older, dog-savvy children.
• I would prefer to be the only pet in the home.
• I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.

Interested in adopting me?

I’m at the Behavior Modification Center working on my amazing skills, but I’m still available for adoption! Click the Meet Me button and complete the questionnaire to schedule a meet and greet appointment.

When you come to the shelter and see a pet you are interested in meeting, take note of the pet’s name and visit the front desk in the lobby.
