Orson

Meet Orson! ​Orson is an absolutely fantastic dog. He was found abandoned at a gas station yet is still a very trusting guy. Orson is very patient, gentle and calm and his foster mom says he is a total love-bug. He loves to snuggle in bed and give kisses but is also happy to jump down and take his own space on the floor. He is excellent on leash and walks happily by your side taking in the sights and smells leisurely. He is a very smart boy who is eager to please. He is potty trained and knows how to use a doggy door. He is 4 years old, 60lbs but he doesn’t seem that big. He is more wide than tall. Orson is fantastic with other dogs and children and just wants to hang out and be loved on. His big brown eyes sooth the soul. Orson is ready to start his next and best chapter in life with you and is being fostered in Bend, OR.

steps to adopting

  • The first step to adopting from The Rawley Project is to make the $5 suggested application donation here.

  • The second step is to complete the adoption application here. The application takes 3-5 business days to be reviewed. Once completed and approved it is good for all dogs, multiple use and kept on file for 1 year.

Our Vetting policy

  • Puppies (under 1 year of age) have received a veterinarian exam prior to departing, rabies vaccination (if over 4 months old), up to 3 rounds of DHLPP (dependent on age), Bordetella (kennel cough), deworming, flea/tick preventative, heart worm test and sterilization. Any further medical care or treatment will not be covered by The Rawley Project. Once you take physical possession of the animal the responsibility lies with you. We highly recommend you take you new pet to a veterinarian for a fecal test as parasites are very common in shelter environments and while they are treated before departure, they may need additional rounds of medication.

  • Adults (1 year and older) are up to date on rabies and DHPP vaccinations and accompany their most recent medical records from a veterinarian. All known issues are disclosed to the best of our ability. Once you take physical possession of the animal the responsibility lies with you.

OUR REHOMING & RETURN POLICY

  • While we expect you to enter into any adoption with the intention to commit to being that pets forever home, if you should determine, after significant efforts have been made on your part, that an animal you adopt from The Rawley Project is not the right fit for your home we ask that you contact us. We do not have a physical shelter and cannot physically take your animal into our care immediately; however, we will work with you to either rehome the animal or move it into one of our foster homes when available.

    **Please note that adoption fees are NON-REFUNDABLE regardless of the amount of time the animal has spent with you. Should you take an animal home prior to signing the adoption contract, it is assumed, by your physical possession of the animal, that you are accepting the terms of said contract.
