Buster

Our best guess is that he is some sort of toy spaniel mix. He is quite young, probably less than a year but he is completely house-trained. Buster loves to play with other dogs but he has issues with some other male dogs so he would probably be best as an only dog. As long as he gets a chance to go for walks and play with his new guardian. In his foster home he spends a lot of time playing chase and wrestling with the two female dogs that are close to his size and age. He is a bit too interested in chasing cats to be OK with a timid kitty but a larger, dog savvy cat who will not be intimidated might be a good match for him.

Buster sleeps well in his crate at night but is not crazy about staying there during the day. He loves to run around in the fenced yard and is not a good candidate for an apartment. Buster has a lot of personality and would be a great dog for someone with training experience. He just needs some polish to be a wonderful little companion and at twenty pounds he definitely sees himself as a lap dog. Is there room on your lap and in your heart for Buster?

Adoption Process: We are not first come first served. Indigo Rescue focuses on finding good matches between dogs and families to ensure life long adoptions. We deliver all dogs to their new homes.

All of our dogs are in foster homes. We have adoption events at the Beaverton PetSmart every other Saturday where you can meet many of our dogs at once. Click Here for our Calendar of Events. Or, if you're interested in a particular dog, you can send an e-mail via the e-mail link at the bottom of the page ("Email Indigo Rescue") with answers to the questions below. If the dog seems compatible with your situation we'll set up a time for you to meet the dog.

Do you have other pets now? (briefly describe)

Have you had pets in the past? What became of them?

What kind of exercise will you provide for the dog? (type/frequency)

What is your schedule like? How long/often will the dog be alone?

Where will the dog be while you're gone? Where will the dog be when you're home? Where will the dog sleep?

Who else lives in the home? Do you have children? How old are the children?

Are you in a home or apartment? How long have you lived there? Do you have a fully, securely fenced yard? (type/height)

Do you own or rent your home?

What changes in your life are likely in the next 10+ years (or life span of the dog) and how will the changes affect the dog? (moving, job or schedule change, school, having children)

Anything else you'd like us to consider in finding the right dog for your family?
