My story

Meet Josie!  She is a lovely 7 pound,  two year old female Chihuahua mix. She is spayed and up-to-date on all vaccinations and is a healthy pup.  Josie is super friendly with other dogs, and she would thrive with a playmate her size who likes to play and an active human who can give her the attention and exercise she loves and deserves.  Josie will take a while to build trust with her humans at first, but when she feels safe with you, she warms up quickly, and loves attention and snuggles and play. Leash skills are improving daily, and she is timid out in unknown spaces, so a calm home where she can play in a yard and slowly practice her leash skills in a quiet neighborhood is a must.  That's where a confident doggie friend will help her trust the world.  She does use a doggy door to go potty, so house training will be a breeze! She has been around cats and is okay with them too. Small children may be too much energy for Josie at first, but as long as the kiddos respect her space and give her time she should thrive! Are you ready to bring home adorable Josie? She's ready!   Underdogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. Adoption fee is $280. Josie is being fostered in the McMinnville area. A lovely drive to wine country! 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  https://underdogsrock.org/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 may be conducted virtually. For updates on all the Underdogs be sure to follow the Underdogs Rock Rescue Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/UnderdogsRockRescueJune 18, 2025, 9:37 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Josie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
