Iggy

Iggy is a cute, friendly, outgoing little Lhasa Apso. He has the funniest little quirk. He talks when he's outside smelling all the interesting smells! Sometimes he'll scrape his back feet with a mighty little kick, but mostly, he just talks and talks with a cute little grumbly sound.

Iggy loves to be around other dogs, but oddly, he prefers to be in the company of larger dogs than he is. He does not do well as an "only" dog. So he'll need to go to a family that already has at least one bigger dog. He is good with cats, but not 100% trustworthy with small children (he might think they're after his treats!).

Iggy, like a lot of Lhasas, is more likely to follow his own whims than to follow you - so he'll definitely need a securely fenced yard and to be on leash when not in the securely fenced yard.

Iggy somehow injured his foot while at the shelter so he came to us. He needed surgery vet fixed him up and he's doing fine.

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?
