Border Terrier puppies and dogs in Port Townsend, Washington

Animal Profile: Declan is an estimated 10- to 12-month old 26 lb neutered male terrier (possibly border terrier) mix with a wiry coat (low to no shedding) and a spunky personality! Declan aka Little Dicky was found as a stray in eastern WA and taken in by a good samaritan who was not well equipped to meet this pups needs, so he made his way to Dog Gone Seattle. Foster Update:  Declan is super smart and social, friendly with all people including children, and loves to play with other dogs. He is currently living with three children and a pack of large dogs (don't tell him he's not a large dog!) and he gets along with everyone. When Declan joined DGS he had some pretty serious separation anxiety, hated the crate, and barked continuously when left alone. With structure and training, we are proud to share that Declan is now crate trained (will go in on command, and is calm/quiet when left alone for up to 4 hours and through the night). He is affectionate (loves to give kisses) and playful, and is still very much in his puppy phase so learning what is and is not a toy, but he will happily give up his toys to any person or child. He puts up a bit of a stink with dogs but equally loves to play tug and play toy stealing games with other dogs.  Declan is just so adorable. He has a big personality packed in a little body. He would absolutely thrive at agility, fly ball, barnhunt, or really any sport you wanted to do with him except maybe dock diving (he's pretty dense and prefers wading to swimming, although he tolerates a bath well). Declan will need basic obedience training (he knows sit LOL) and will need continued structure and leadership particularly transitioning to a new home (read: continued crate practice) and conscientous sharing of freedom and affection to ensure he is not a Stage 5 clinger. He will also highly benefit from being an addition to a household with a canine companion or two. Room to run is a must! This boy is active and loves to zoom. Only single family residences will be considered, and resident dog(s) strongly preferred. Declan has not been evaluated with cats. Adoption Info: Declan's adoption fee is $550 which includes his neuter (3/20/25), core vaccinations per AVMA standards, recent vet visit, and microchip with lifetime registration. Your adoption fee may be tax deductible as Dog Gone Seattle is a 501c3 organization.  Apply online: www.doggoneseattle.org/adoption-application Animal History: Declan was found as a stray in eastern WA and taken into Dog Gone Seattle with known separation anxiety on 3/6/25. He has made great progress and is now available for adoption in the greater Seattle area. March 20, 2025, 11:58 pm

Parson is a 7-month-old, 14-pound scruffy Border Terrier mix with an infectious enthusiasm for life! His whole body wags with excitement, and he’s always ready to play—whether it’s with toys, other dogs, or his favorite people.This happy, playful pup has all the fun energy of a young dog but without the typical puppy problems! He’s already potty trained, going to the door or crying when he needs to go out, and he’s doing great with crate training—sleeping through the night with his goldendoodle foster sibling and staying calm in his crate when left alone for short periods.Parson is dog-friendly and especially loves playing with bigger, laid-back dogs, so he’d thrive in a home with a confident canine buddy to show him the ropes. He’s already learned “sit” and is making great progress with leash training.If you’re looking for a smart, social, and eager-to-please pup who’s ready to bring endless joy and energy to your home, Parson might be your perfect match!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as 'Out of Town' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.March 20, 2025, 5:01 am

Meet, Taffy, the tiniest pup of this litter and love of your life! Taffy is currently 2 months old and 4 pounds, and we think she may be a Terrier mix, but with rescue it’s always a guess! But we do know she is 100% sweet! This puppy is from a part of the US where puppies are regularly euthanized. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from this rescue, it saves their life AND it also allows us to save the life of another in its place. Taffy adores the company of people and likes to sit to be called pretty. This tiny affectionate pup will happily crawl into your arm for snuggles and sweet moments of affection. Taffy loves toys and it's so entertaining to watch her play with them. Her foster family says that she is making great progress on potty training - this smart cookie knows to expect a reward now! Taffy has had experience living with other dogs and kids and would fit right in with a family. But if you’re looking for a loving new bestie, Taffy is ready to be your one and only. This sweet girl is the perfect mix of playful and cuddly, and she’s ready to bring joy to her forever home! We believe Taffy will be a medium sized dog. Her mom is a terrier mix about 30 pounds and dad is still a mystery. Taffy is still young so she will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. Her new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy. When old enough, they will be perfect to go on walks and hikes or show off around your neighborhood. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend!
