who is the perfect mix of confident, cautious, and curious. The shelter had her listed as a "Basenji mix" and based on her size, coloring, and temperament, there might be some truth to it! Tilly is a silly, social, happy gal who seems to be content in many situations. Playful dogs in the home? Great! She'll love it. Respectful kids at home? Yay!! More friends! Only have some boring adults who like to sit around and read? That's ok! Get Tilly her library card and she'll be happy to curl up next to you with a good book. She's been learning her leash skills and enjoys walks around the neighborhood, taking in all the sights and sounds with curiosity and a little caution. She is a pro at potty training and hasn't had any issues in her foster home as long as she's given plenty of opportunities to be outside. She's also learning to appreciate puppy naps in her crate and has relaxed with her kong with minimal protests for 3 hours during the day. She's willing to sleep in it all night but would prefer to be next to you in the bed. But get ready - when it's time to let her out, your house and yard become an obstacle course for Puppy Parkour! She tears through the space with zoomies and excitement in rejoining her friends. Tilly is a sharp girl and doesn't miss much. She is at the perfect age for positive reinforcement training classes, and with her keen focus, agile body (thank you, Puppy Parkour), eagerness to please, and food motivation, we are sure she will be the top of her class. She is so excited about life and doesn't want to miss ANYTHING, so don't be surprised if she tries to sneak out the front door to tag along with you! Her new family must be committed to creating a safe environment for Tilly to thrive. She is only a puppy and still has so much to learn, but based on what we've seen in her foster home, she is working hard on becoming the ultimate doggie best friend and all around goodest girl. Think you'll be a good fit? Put in an application! Tilly is being fostered in Bay City, OR and currently un-spayed. Her new family will have to agree to taking her to her spay appointment at a later date (cost covered by URR.) Underdogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. Adoption fee is $450. You MUST have an Underdogs Rock Rescue application on file to request a meet with an Underdog. An online Underdogs Rock adoption application can only be accessed at underdogsrock/adopt-a-dog . You must be available to meet an Underdog in their foster's location and dogs are not held for applicants or shipped outside of the Portland metro area. Home checks are also part of the process and will be conducted virtually. For updates on all the Underdogs be sure to follow the Underdogs Rock Rescue Facebook page .facebook/UnderdogsRockRescue

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
