The screening process was thorough, but easy to navigate. Everything was straight forward and we appreciated they already scheduled his surgery to be neutered, which was included in the adoption fee. All the staff and volunteers we meet there were so wonderful. You could tell how genuinely they cared and loved animals. We adopted our pup right at opening time on a weekday which made it really easy and it wasn't busy yet. Highly recommend adopting a dog from Oregon dog rescue.

I heard about Cara through a friend who has a nervous, reactive pup. I'd seen such an improvement…read morein him, so I thought it'd be worth a try with my own anxious tiny one. The first time Cara took my dog on a hike, she could hardly get in the car with all of her barking and snarling at the other dogs. Now she never barks at all and is so comfortable with all the other pups in the pack. I've noticed that my walks with my dog are better, too. She is far less obsessed with other dogs we see, she doesn't need to be coaxed with treats, she's just way more balanced and confident. I know that having a dog--particularly a tiny anxious one--is constant work, but Cara has made it so much easier. My dog loves going on her her hikes and is totally obsessed with Cara. So glad we found her! Highly recommended!

When I first contacted Maritza my dog was aggressive toward people and dogs. Maritza helped me understand what was driving his behavior and she showed me how to train behaviors that he could do in place of his aggressive outbursts. I have the tools now to manage most situations and I am enjoying taking my dog for walks in public, on sidewalks, in parks and on forest trails. And on top of that all the training is kind and done without punishment. Carol M.

We reached out to Maritza in hopes of her training help, and we are so happy we did! She is such a nice, down to earth, and very professional trainer who really knows her stuff! We learned so much about reducing our dogs triggers in order to teach him how to be more confident and have less anxiety. Her method for training is also really cool and very kind toward the dog. We learned that training requires patience but also persistence. The fee she charges is well worth it and we would for sure do it again! We are all going to miss her! Our pup is a much more confident and happy boy!

It seemed impossible to adopt the dog we wanted due to the amount of applications coming in. We ended up adopting "May" and the process was smooth, the staff made sure to ask us valid questions and were very friendly. Thank you for allowing us to adopt May. It was nice to be able to adopt a dog and not make it a super difficult process but at the same time you assured us that you weren't just letting anyone just take the dog. We were able to spend as much time as we wanted and they were very patient and answered all of our questions. They also gave us a collar, food and snacks for May.

We've known owner Nicole since she was a teenager and have seen with our own eyes her work ethics over the years. She has dedicated her life to raising well-educated, responsible kids who are also involved in the entire breeding process. Fancy Pants goes above and beyond to ensure their pups are healthy by implementing a thoughtful, genetically sound breeding program. Pups are exposed to daily life activities such as grooming, nail trims, crating, car rides, lots of play and cuddling before they send them off to their forever homes. The adoption process was not taken lightly - Fancy Pants takes time to ensure adoptive parents are a good fit to the pups they will be going home with. Nicole was always happy to answer our new parent questions through the entire process. We brought 8 week old Harley home in January 2023. He's been a delight and fills our lives with joy every day!
