Meet Brownie

Meet Brownie! This handsome young adult male Lab-mix pup is part of a group of dogs that came to us from our rescue partner who operates near Lake Chapala just outside of Guadalajara, Mexico. Submit your online adoption application through our website today to not miss out on this opportunity to bring this pup home for a 3-day home trial towards their adoption. Will you be my hero?

Brownie's rescue story:

My name is Brownie, and along with my two brothers, Nico and Groot, we've lived a story that began in the shadows but has blossomed into a beautiful journey of resilience and joy. Our lives started in heartbreaking circumstances when we were abandoned and left in a trash bag, struggling to breathe. Fortunately, a human angel rescued us and gave us a second chance. Despite those challenging beginnings, several months have passed since that dark episode, and now, I'm a vibrant and personality-filled young pup. I absolutely adore taking long naps in the garden, where I can peacefully observe the world around me. There's nothing quite like the warmth of cuddles and affection, and I'm known for being both loving and obedient, not to mention quite intelligent. Treats are my absolute favorite, and I'll do just about anything for them. Playtime is another highlight of my day.

***IMPORTANT HOLIDAY UPDATE!***

Don't miss our 12 Days of Christmas Adoption Specials!

Adopt your new best friend between December 12 and December 23 and you'll receive $120 off their adoption fee! To qualify, you must be approved by our Adoptions Manager during this timeframe to adopt a specific dog, but your adoption trial does not have to begin during this timeframe.

And as a bonus, if you are approved to adopt a dog during our 12 Days of Christmas - December 12-23 - you will also have the chance to participate in our Santa's Sleigh Delivery Service! For a $100 donation to SDH (in addition to your dog's adoption fee), you can have your pet delivered to your home on Christmas Morning, December 25. What better present for you and your loved ones than to bring your new family member home on Christmas! Participation in Santa's Sleigh is subject to location and availability.

steps to adopting

(OUR ADOPTABLE DOGS ARE IN SEPARATE TEMPORARY FOSTER HOMES BETWEEN BEND/CENTRAL OREGON AND THE GREATER PORTLAND AREA. THEREFORE, MEET AND GREETS ARE NOT DONE AT OUR FACILITY. TO LEARN MORE, PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR ADOPTION APPLICATION ONLINE AND OUR ADOPTION PROGRAM MANAGER WILL REACH OUT TO YOU WITH FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO MEET YOUR NEW PUP!)

The first step to adopting a dog from SDH is to complete the adoption application. First click on the "OUR DOGS tab up above, and then click on the orange colored "Fill out an Adoption Application here" button to start the process). Once submitted, please expect 3-5 business days or sooner for processing and to hear back from us. Once you are pre-approved, your adoption application will remain on file with us for 1 year and it can go towards multiple adoptions within that 1 year time frame before it expires.

To finalize an adoption you must sign the adoption contract and pay the full adoption fee of $550. The adoption fee helps cover our costs. On average, per dog, it costs SDH between $500-$700 for vetting/medical/sterilization, transport and other rescue related expenses. All dogs are rescued and do not transport to SDH until they are healthy and ready to be adopted. All dogs are examined by a veterinarian before they fly, which includes sterilization whenever possible, given standard vaccines and rabies (if age appropriate). Most dogs are sterilized before they come into our program, however if this is not the case we will spay/neuter them once they arrive at our cost.

Upon their arrival, all dogs are seen for a wellness exam by SDH's medical team. Once the adoption is finalized, any further medical care or treatment will not be covered by SDH, unless discussed prior with our medical team. All known issues are disclosed to the best of our ability prior to finalizing the adoption.
