Clatsop County Animal Control & Shelter
Romeo recently spent a long weekend with a foster. Here is their experience with him :)
Romeo was a dream to have in our home! He is house trained - no marking and he is kennel trained. He slept eight hours without a peep in his kennel in the family room every night. Didn’t even bark or stand up when I came down to get him; he was totally calm.
Romeo was a dream to walk! When he saw other dogs, he looked at them and seemed mildly interested, but didn’t pull or bark. When encouraged to keep moving, he was happy to do so.
He is smart and was very quick to learn things! In just four days, he learned where all the things were in the house - door to go out, treat jar, toy bins, his place on the sofa, etc.
I gave him a bath and he stood perfectly still while I lathered and rinsed him. What dog does that?!
He respected the baby gate, didn’t bolt the doors, took treats gently and was just a very good boy!
Disclaimer: It can take months for a rescue animal to recover from the stress of a shelter and show their true selves in their new home, so it`s certainly possible that Romeo`s behavior would change over time, but during his short vacation at our house he showed us that he has all the makings of an amazing best friend!

Clatsop County Animal Control & Shelter
reserves the right to deny adoption to anyone at any time for any reason. In
order to do what is best for each animal, they are adopted on a first come first
served basis at the shelter to qualified recipients only.
A drivers license or state ID must be shown at the shelter. All animals from the shelter will be spayed or neutered before they leave. We spay and neuter as many animals as we are able to before adoption to make the process faster. No animal will leave the shelter without being spayed and neutered. NO EXCEPTIONS! Please allow yourself enough time to spend time with the animal and do the application and interview. The application and interview take approximately 20 minutes to complete. To adopt an animal you need to fill out an application and be interviewed. All household members will need to meet the animal prior to adoption. Landlord approval is needed if you are a renter. Dog adoptions have a few more steps. We require that you bring in any current dog either living with you or that will be a frequent visitor for a meet and greet. After this, if the application is approved a home inspection will be scheduled. This is done within two business days. Our goal is to make sure that we find our animals their forever home. Animal Adoption Fees vary so please call the shelter for adoption fees. |
