Adoption requires
  • An application
  • a home visit by one of our volunteers
  • a donation of $200 for dogs younger than 7
  • A donation of $100 if the dog is "middle aged" (7 and older) or if the dog is a mixed breed

We prefer families with a fenced yard, as most Sp ringers need daily exercise beyond an on-leash walk, and some dogs (usually those pulled from shelters) have been found wandering. This is not an absolute requirement.

Families with toddlers may have a longer wait until we have a dog with proven toddler experience.

We encourage our new families to give their new friend some formal obedience training.

Shelter listed dogs will be adopted through the shelter and are subject to their fees and rules.

NOTE: Almost all shelters list dogs at http://www.petfinder.com They are often adopted straight from the shelter. It's a good idea to search that site at least weekly. Some shelter software only allows them to list "Welsh" Springers. We've not yet seen ANY Welsh Springer in a shelter... they are somewhat rare. We assume the dog is an English Springer. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

In Foster Care

SaraLee

About 8 years old
Spayed
Liver/White
Good with kids
Unknown with toddlersz
Unknown with cats

Saralee was adopted from Klamath Falls, Oregon, and like the other girls who came from there, she is very sweet, reliable, and cuddly, and gets along with other dogs (at least with a little friend-Yorkie). Saralee's owner has died, so she came into foster care a few days ago. She's good on leash, and fine in the house when the owner is out. She loves to play fetch and run at the park. All in all, a loving and sweet girl.

If you're interested in SaraLee, please fill out an application . If you already have an ap, email Jan and tell her you are interested.

 

 

Owner Referrals

Owner referrals are posted as a courtesy. All adoption decisions will be between the referring owner and the adopting owner. WVESSA and OSR disclaims any and all knowledge, involvement, and recommendation of owner relinquished and owner listed dogs.

Bo

Neutered
B/W
Good with kids & cats
Senior dog (10 years old)
Needs a big, fenced yard
Currently in Bend, OR

Bo comes from a breeder in Utah. He had a great life there with his family. But now that they live in Bend and Mom has gone to work, he's lonely. He's field bred, had basic obedience, basic hunting, and is an eager hunter. Bo is good with other dogs, but in the field, he's nose down and focused and ignores the other dogs. Bo is current with vaccinations and heartworm preventive. He's fine alone inside or in the garage. His owners describe him as happy and exuberant. He's very youthful for his age (typically, springers are "young" for most of their lives). Outside, he can play nonstop, loves to swim, and is mostly interested in flushing anything that moves.

He rides in the car well, likes to join the family inside for meals (sleeps under the table).

Bo has some issues with people in uniform (UPS guy, etc) and has some other ideosyncracies his family would be glad to explain.

If you think you can provide a good home for Bo, please fill out an application .

If you already have an application, email Jan about your interest.
