DJ
Male/neutered/shots current
3 years old
10 lbs
DJ is a real people person. He loves to be with his person and likes lots of
attention. He loves squeaky toys and sleeping on the bed or cuddling on the
couch. He has obviously been loved and is just waiting to walk into his new
person's heart.
DJ does fine with other dogs but would just as soon be an "only
child". Because DJ has opinions about how he likes to be handled, he will
only be placed in an adult home (teens over 16 OK). DJ is a beautiful boy a real
traffic stopper and a LOVER , he will be a wonderful addition to his new family.
Fabulous new Moms for this darling boy, residing in Arlington, WA
(Adopted July 9/09)
Lucy
Shih Tzu/Poodle
Female/spayed/shots current
3 years old
15 lbs
My name is Lucy (Lulu). My family was too busy and didn't have time for me so
they asked Furbaby Rescue to find me my forever home. I am very sweet and love
to play. I live with another Shih Tzu/poo named Lucy. Sometimes she gets mad at
me because I ask her a little too often to come out and play. I love
toys especially ones that squeak. If you ask me if I want to go for a walk I
will start to dance around. Walks are one of my favorite things and I
am a very good girl on leash.
I don't like to be left alone and whenever my foster mom and dad go out I get
very upset and make a fuss. I am shy and a little nervous around new people.
Loud noises and things that move quickly scare me. It took me a few days to get
used to my foster home. At first I just wanted to hide but once I
felt safe I started to run around, play outside and with my toys.
Lulu will do best if she has another playful dog, and someone who can be home a
bit, or take to work.
This girl hit the jackpot with her new Moms, a darling Peke brother, residing in
Lynnwood, WA and in memory of Meg and Salty.

Ichiro is a special little guy, super smart and very affectionate. He can
be a bit stubborn at times but is a great companion dog with lots of funny
quirks and expressions. This sharp pup knows the following commands: sit,
want to outside. down, stay and whoa, off and go lie down as well as how to jump
into your arms on command. He is absolutely devoted to his people and does
well with the other dogs in his foster home.
He is house trained and will often scratch at the door to go outside. He loves
to go for rides and to hang outside in nice weather, and loves to nibble on
fruits and vegetables...and loves long walks. Adult home only.
Ichi is ready to crawl into your lap and be your loving companion.
Ichi is now residing with a very special retired couple, who adore him, living
in Mukilteo, WA

Buddy
Male/neutered/shots current
3 years old
18 lbs
Buddy is the sweetest lil boy. He loves car rides, and would like to be as
close as possible to you. He likes other dogs but we have been informed he
will chase cats. Buddy is a quiet boy that requires very little
attention. He is very affectionate, but not needy. He will lie at
your feet and sleep contented as long as you are still. He likes toys and
hooves to chew on. He is friendly with people that we have met on
walks. He is fine meeting strange dogs as well. He barks very little
and behaved excellent at the groomers. True to his breed he needs good
food or he becomes itchy. Buddy knows sit, speak and come on
command. He takes treats very gently and is a wonderful boy.
Buddy does suffer from separation anxiety. In his previous life he lived
with a Rottweiler and when that dog died Buddy became anxious. They got
another dog, and that did help, but still had issues. He needs to find a
home with another dog and someone who is home a lot or can take him with them.
Watch his video, he is too CUTE

Tess
Female/spayed/shots current
7 months old
6 lbs
Oh my, little Tess is a cute as can be. And she is little, she is just
under 7 months old, and weighs just over 6 lbs...she is tiny, petite and
adorable.
She has this coy, shyness about her, well for a few minutes, and then you will
see her prancing around the house, no problem telling lil boy dogs off, if they
become "too personal"...which is so funny to see, as she is so much
smaller then they are...doesn't stop this girl.
And when she is finished running around, chewing on a hoof or playing with toys,
or other furbabies she will seek you out, to cuddle deep into your arms, and
pretend she is this lil dollbaby, that you need to protect...and you will look
at her, kiss her tiny nose, and hold her close...yup she knows how to wrap
anyone around her lil paws...
SPECIAL REQUEST FROM TESS - "Because I'm still such a baby I would want my new forever person to be just that - my FOREVER person. I plan on living to be 16-18 years old so please add those years to your present age and let me know if I can count on you living to a ripe old age with me. Please don't put me at risk of having to ever live without you."
Tessi has the greatest home, wonderful Mom and new big brother Yoshi, residing in Bellevue, WA
(Adopted Oct.9/09)
Kelso
Male/neutered/shots current
12-18 months old
15 lbs
Kelso is a friendly, sweet little dog who loves everyone he meets. Very
personable and trusting. He loves to be your constant companion. He adores
his toys and chews and likes life best when he can be at your feet, or on your
lap, or perching behind you on the couch when watching TV. He loves to be with his person and
will shadow you from room to room, happily settling in near you. Or when he
isn't near you, he is running and tossing toys, enjoying everything or playing
with another lil fur friend (he loves Tess)...happy happy boy.
He adores both men and women. Loves to sit like a chipmunk,
hoping for a treat...just a sweet energetic lil boy.
Comment from Kelso
"I really am hoping for someone who will love me enough to keep me
clean and groom me regularly so my coat will grow out and I can strut
around the block as the best looking dude around."
Kelso has two wonderful parents, residing in Vancouver, B.C. Canada
(Adopted Oct.31/09)
MuChiChi (nka Teka)
Female /spayed/shots current
12 months old
5 (yes FIVE lbs)
This tiny tiny diminutive lil girl, had NEVER been groomed in 15 months, she was
a MESS. She is a very sweet and loving lil girl, who thinks being on your
lap, cuddled in your arms is where she belongs. She also likes to share the
pillow with you at night. Though she really needs to be a dog, and not
carried everywhere:-)
She is starting to understand going outside to potty, but you need to stay with
her, as she will not do her business left alone. She BONDS extremely
quickly, but slower and shyer with men. She follows you everywhere, and
wants to be by your side constantly...though once she completely settles into
her own home, I think that part of her insecurity will ebb.
She is the smallest lil Shih Tzu, I have had in my rescue..makes a normal sized
ST look like a giant...
I am not sure if this lil imp could
have gotten two more doting parents, now residing in Kamloops, B.C. Canda
(Adopted Jan.9/10)
Barney
Male/neutered/shots current
7 years old
16 lbs
My foster mom and dad think I am one of the easiest foster pooches they have ever had. That’s probably because I am very mellow and sweet. All I ask for is good food (I have allergies), yummy treats and to be loved. I am not very demanding and since I am debarked I am a pretty quiet. I love sleeping in a doggie bed, having my tummy rubbed and getting hugs and kisses. I walk well on a leash; my foster mom and sister like to take me along on long walks so I am getting to be a good walker. I like car rides and am good with other dogs. I can be a little possessive of my food so my foster home is working on this. I have been known to be growly and nippy but my foster family has had no problems with me and when I get caught being naughty I roll on my back.
About a year and a half ago I was found as stray and a lady who worked at a nursing home adopted me and that is where I lived until she left her job. After she was gone, I became overprotective of one of the patients so I ended up back at the doggie shelter.
I hope to find my forever home where I can just hang out and be the easy going loving guy I am.
Barney has a fabulous new home, living in Mukilteo, WA

Holly
Female/spayed/shots current
App. 3 years old
10 lbs
Hi
everyone! My name is Holly, probably because I was taken into rescue during
the “holly-day” season.
Hah, hah!!! I think I’m a comedian.
I’ll
make you laugh in other ways, too, like when I nearly wag my tail off when I
see you and roll over for a belly rub whenever you reach down to pet me.
Then
I’m going to show you my mysterious side. For example, why do I rub against
your leg at times as if I were a cat? Then you can wonder some more when I get
up on the back of the couch (I hope that’s OK with you), which is one of my
favorite spots, and you’ll notice that my eyes follow you everywhere.
You’ll wonder if I was Sherlock Holmes’ dog in a previous life and I’m
not going to tell you the answer to that!!! You’ll have to figure it out for
yourself.
What
I can tell you is, I am housetrained. Foster Mom raves that I’ve not had one
single accident. I’m pretty proud of myself on that account.
Last,
but not least, I am very brave.
You see when the vet saw me after I moved into the rescue home, I had
some very serious dental problems. I had 8 teeth extracted at the same time as
I was spayed. I’m not feeling quite up to par yet but I’m trying very hard
to do the right thing by eating soft food until the stitches come out and
I’m healed up properly. I heard my foster mom quietly say my damaged teeth
were the result of abuse but I’m trying to forget that. I’d rather forget
the past and look forward to a wonderfully loving new home with someone who
laughs at me and with me.
How
about it? May
I come sit on your couch so we can laugh together? Life would be better with
laughter AND ME, don’t you think?
Holly is living the grand
live in Port Orchard, WA with her two new sisters who she adores, Molly and
Maggie
