Echo

Echo is a beautiful and unusual looking dog. He has fairly long hair and his coat has a brindle pattern. He's two years old and only 30 pounds. Echo is very shy and spooks easily at sounds and anything else unexpected. He is shy with new dogs at first, but loves Yoyo, another Indigo Rescue dog. Echo did great at our PetSmart adoption event. Echo tends to be more shy around men than women. Because Echo doesn't do well with loud noises and unexpected things, he should not go to a home with children. Echo is a very sweet boy and once you earn his trust, he'll be the greatest dog. Because he spooks easily, he probably isn't a good candidate for someone who wants to do a lot of off-leash hiking and other activities with their dog. He could get scared and dart off. We really have no idea of his breed mix - he's surely a very genetically diverse dog.

Echo came from the streets of Taiwan, where dogs have an even harder time finding a home. He was in a rescue there and came to the U.S. after the flooding in Taiwan.

See KGW.com's slideshow of the situation for dogs in Taiwan.

Adoption Process: We are not first come first served. Indigo Rescue focuses on finding good matches between dogs and families to ensure life long adoptions. We deliver all dogs to their new homes.

All of our dogs are in foster homes. We have adoption events at the Beaverton PetSmart every other Saturday where you can meet many of our dogs at once. Click Here for our Calendar of Events. Or, if you're interested in a particular dog, you can send an e-mail via the e-mail link at the bottom of the page ("Email Indigo Rescue") with answers to the questions below. If the dog seems compatible with your situation we'll set up a time for you to meet the dog.

Do you have other pets now? (briefly describe)

Have you had pets in the past? What became of them?

What kind of exercise will you provide for the dog? (type/frequency)

What is your schedule like? How long/often will the dog be alone?

Where will the dog be while you're gone? Where will the dog be when you're home? Where will the dog sleep?

Who else lives in the home? Do you have children? How old are the children?

Are you in a home or apartment? How long have you lived there? Do you have a fully, securely fenced yard? (type/height)

Do you own or rent your home?

What changes in your life are likely in the next 10+ years (or life span of the dog) and how will the changes affect the dog? (moving, job or schedule change, school, having children)

Anything else you'd like us to consider in finding the right dog for your family?
