Zissou, German shepherd mix
Zissou is a handsome male German shepherd mix being kept at Dog Gone Seattle.
Zissou is a social animal — he gets along well with other dogs. He has mastered his house-training etiquette. His vaccinations are up to date, and he is neutered.
From Zissou's current caretaker:
Zissou is an estimated 2-year-old, 67-pound neutered male who was just rescued from a shelter in San Bernardino. He has all the right characteristics — food and praise motivated, smart and eager to to learn. He gets along well with the resident dog and loves all people. He hasn't meet toddlers but does well with children. He already knows a good amount of commands (sit, down, stay, come and shake) and does well on leash. He can also be stubborn and will do best with a handler who is familiar with his breed and can provide him the mental and physical stimulation required to be a balanced pup.

Sawyer, Labrador retriever and Plott hound mix
Sawyer is a handsome male Labrador retriever and Plott hound mix being cared for at Dog Gone Seattle.
Sawyer plays well with others — he gets along well with other dogs. He has all of his shots, and he is neutered. He's already house-trained.
Here's what Sawyer's friends at Dog Gone Seattle think of him:
Sawyer is an estimated 1-year-old, 62-pound male neutered brindle Labrador mix (possibly with Plott hound) who was just rescued from a high-kill shelter in San Bernardino. He is a bundle of joy and energy and absolutely loves to chase a ball. He would love a yard to run in. When he gets the puppy crazies he will attempt to chase the cat, and would not do well with shy or skittish cats but may be OK with a dog-savvy cat and training. He still has some mouthy puppy behaviors that we are working on. He is very smart, loving and playful.

Mamuska, schnauzer and terrier mix
Mamuska is a darling female schnauzer and terrier mix currently housed at Dog Gone Seattle.
Mamuska loves cats and dogs. She's spayed and vaccinated. She has mastered her house-training etiquette.
Notes from Mamuska's caretakers:
Mamuska is an estimated 4-year-old, 11-pound female who just arrived to our rescue and is now in a Seattle area foster home. Mamuska is still pretty timid in her new surroundings, but she's starting to come out of her shell and is enjoying exploring the house and yard. She's working on learning to walk on leash, and her really cute "party trick" is walking/hopping on her hind legs when she wants food.
