Our Spotlight Pet!

Let's Play!

Cotton is a young terrier mix with a minor disability common to white, blue-eyed dogs: he’s deaf. He’ll need someone with lots of time and patience to continue his training, but his potential as an active and devoted companion is unlimited.

Cotton is looking for a high-energy family, where he will be welcome as a running or hiking buddy. He loves water and goes nuts whenever a hose is turned on. He also adores all kinds of toys and can entertain himself quite easily.

Cotton is very people-focused and constantly checks to see where his people are. He’s also smart and food-motivated, so he responds quickly to reward-based training. He likes cats but only as playmates; he wouldn’t hurt them. He enjoys playing with our other dogs, and has been very gentle with our foster puppy, but because he can’t hear when the other dogs have had enough, his doggie play should always be supervised. He’s great for play dates, but probably would do best as the only dog at home.
He’s also great with kids, although a bit clumsy, so probably older children would be best. Cotton thinks he is a lap dog. He sleeps like a log through the night.

If you’d like to know more about Cotton, please contact our dog coordinator, Ronnie at 503-695-3352.
