Solomon

I'm a happy, friendly 1-1.5 year old pit bull. I'm active and I love to play with people and other dogs. I'm very happy that Indigo Rescue saved me. I was found staggering down the street in Cornelius a couple months ago. I was so skinny and weak I could barely walk. I had some injuries, but they're all better now. The nice people at Bethany Family Pet Clinic made me feel so much better and I was so happy to get lots of food and love. I was so tired I couldn't stand up, but I wagged my tail to tell them thanks. The people from the TV even came out to visit me and a story about me was on TV! How cool! Now I'm ready for a loving home where I'll be a treasured part of the family. I promise to make you laugh and be your best friend.

Solomon's injuries led us to believe that someone was trying to make him a fighting dog. That's wasn't his style, so they dumped Solomon. In his foster home, Solomon is nice to the cat, and he loves Iggy, the Lhasa Apso and Izzie, the Pit bull. He doesn't get along with other male dogs as well, probably because that's who beat him up before! Solomon isn't a good candidate for dog parks, but he'll be a great walking or running companion!

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?
