Trisket

Isn't he adorable?! We aren't sure exactly what mix Trisket is, but we think he might be a Basset, with his long body and shorter legs, mixed with some kind of wire haired terrier. Whatever he is, he's adorable! Trisket is super energetic and playful. He thinks everyone wants to play with him! Of course, with his energy, everyone doesn't want to play with him, and Trisket is good about respecting that right...with a little reminder. This is a very affectionate dog, with a whole lot of happy in him!

Trisket needs a home that is committed to providing him with lots of exercise and training. He is very hyper if you walk him on a leash and collar, but if you put him on a harness he walks just fine. Trisket is only about a year old and has obviously not had any training, but he's really willing to learn! Routine trips to the dog park would be a great idea for this boy to run off some of his extra energy. Small children would be mown down by this little guy, but kids over eight might be 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?
