Seattle Dog Play Classifieds
Click here for the main page, with the most recent listings on the Seattle Dog Play Classifieds.
If you are concerned about how the dogs will interact, split the cost of a dog trainer to manage the introductions. Meet at a neutral place the first time, like a park, unless you are 110% sure the dogs are not territorially aggressive. From there, you can walk to a house together. This list is for information purposes only and we assume no liability whatsoever. Be careful and have fun!

| Name: April Contact: aprilsmith98@pacn.com DogName: Kindro Breed: Japanese Akita DogAge: 8 years(?) Size: 85 pounds Play_style: Kindro enjoys wrestling and chasing other dogs. He is the one that will chase others that are chasing balls, but if you throw a ball for him to chase he will just stand there and look at you. He has not been around many other dogs so I am afraid to take him to an off leash park by myself. We have gone once and he was great. He is very friendly as long as another dog does not try to attack him. He loves my neighbors female bulldog & they play cute together, but we hardly ever get to have them together. I do have a small fenced yard, not very ideal for dog's to play though. I am willing to come to others houses or meet at parks. Comments: I live in the Shoreline area and work from 8-? My work schedule varies a lot so later in the evenings and weekends are best for us. I also work every other weekend but am usually off fairly early. Posted: 11/3/05 |
| Name: Linda Contact: linda@puffinalia.com DogName: Mani Breed: Tibetan Terrier DogAge: 13 weeks Size: 10 lbs and growing Play_style: Mani loves to chase things and adores squeaky toys. He'd love to have a friendly dog or two to play with because the cats are giving him the cold shoulder here. =) I haven't seen what his play style is with other dogs, because he hasn't met any other than his litter since we brought him home. He gets his last puppy shots in a week and will be ready to play with other dogs then. Comments: I live in West Seattle and would really love to attend puppy classes at Ahimsa, but don't have car access. Anybody in West Seattle available to help me get to and from class? I'll pay gas/parking expenses of course! Posted: 10/14/05 |
| Name: Nathan Maltos Contact: sea98103@hotmail.com DogName: Dolly Breed: Lab/Rott mix DogAge: 2 Size: 60# 2ft. Play_style: At the dog park, she likes to run with other dogs. Just kinda runs after the dog chasing the ball. At home she is the dog chasing the ball. Roommate has an english bulldog, but she dosen't have the stamina to keep up. Comments: Posted: 9/22/05 |
| Name: Christina Contact: christinacramer@mac.com DogName: Cody Breed: Border Collie Mix DogAge: 11 weeks Size: 15 lbs. 11 inches Play_style: Cody loves everybody. He wants to meet and play with every person and animal he sees. This gets him in trouble occasionally with larger/older dogs and cats (my cat loves to sock him in the nose). He is pretty high energy. His solo play time includes chewing on his toys (and my shoes), running through plants that are taller than him, and playing tug-o-war. With other dogs he loves to chase, pounce, wrestle, cuddle, chew on, and can be a little rough. At the end of our dog park romps, he is the dirtiest dog in the joint. Comments: My dad has a dog that plays at Genesee dog park, so we go there alot. My ideal play times are after 3pm. Posted: 9/22/05 |
| Name: Quinn Contact: qrudee@gmail.com or 206-949-3624 DogName: Eclair Breed: Labradoodle DogAge: 4 months Size: 18 lbs Play_style: She is very submissive around bigger dogs but loves playing kind of rough with dogs her size. Loves wrestling and running if room permits. She has one neighbor dog she absolutely loves but wants more friends!

| Name: Heather Contact: heatherbredeson@gmail.com DogName: Gus Breed: Shih-Tzu and Pom Mix DogAge: 5 months Size: 10 lbs Play_style: Gus hasn't been around many other dogs. He loves tugging on his rope and chasing his tennis ball around. He likes to explore and sniff everything outside. He is very intimidated by large aggressive dogs, so a shy dog would be best for him to play with. I live downtown but am willing to travel! Comments: Posted: 8/30/05 |
| Name: Marie Martin Contact: mariespeask@comcast.net DogName: Coalette Breed: Miniture poodle DogAge: 14 weeks Size: 6 pds Play_style: He loves to bite, go the opposite why when you call her, and likes to pee on the living room floor. She pulls the ears on my 15 year old poodle who doesn't like it. She a little out of control. Comments: I like in the leschi area of Seattle, close to Madrona, Mt. Baker, Seward Park and Madison Park. Typically, the middle of the days are the best Posted: 8/30/05 |
| Name: Manya O'Shea Contact: haribrett@hotmail.com DogName: Brett Breed: Norwegian Elkhound DogAge: 3 months Size: 10 lbs... will grow to 45 lbs Play_style: Brett is happy and clumsy right now. He had siblings that he played with up until 3 weeks ago. But he enjoys running and dodging and playing tug of war with his toys. We live in West Seattle and have a fenced yard. But there is an informal off leash area not too far away that would be great to try out with a friend. We are going to start a puppy class soon. Comments: Ideal playtimes would be weekends and after 4-5 weekdays. Posted: 8/15/05 |
| Name: Alexis Jackson Contact: alexisrjackson@hotmail.com or 206.795.2436 DogName: Cherry Breed: Pitbull DogAge: 6wks Size: 7lbs for now Play_style: I just received Cherry five days ago as a birthday present and she is precious! Loves other dogs that she has met in the neighborhood, but I do want to socialize her early. I think that she definetely would like to play chase and rough house abit. I want her to play in a supervised area as I start to train her. Would like her to be aroung other strong pups so they could possible play together for a long period of time. Has had her fist set on shot and will be receiving second in 2wks. Comments: Evenings and weekends would be ideal play times. Posted: 8/15/05 |
| Name: Robb & Sarah Contact: swheaton75@aol.com DogName: Pappy Breed: Rottweiler DogAge: 5 1/2 months Size: 55+ lbs Play_style: Pappy is energetic and sociable. He's very strong for his size and age, and would do well with a playmate that is a large breed younger dog, that likes to wrestle and throw his weight around. He is very friendly and will lick you and your dog right away! He has also been in some training and we like to supervise play in order to avoid any behavior that we don't want to repeat. Please contact us if this sounds similar to your dog and your train of thought. Comments: We live in Ballard, have a fenced backyard, which we're open to using. We are in the restaurant industry, so work nights, and ideally would like to find the same, but we're open for the right fit. We're also willing to travel within the city. Posted: 8/9/05 |
| Name: Kathy Harris Contact: Cloudshape@msn.com or (206) 772-5103 DogName: Trinket Breed: teacup yorkie DogAge: almost 3 Size: around 5 pounds Play_style: Trinket is a high energy playmate. She loves to engage other dogs in chasing and running in circles play. She does not wrestle unless she is the bigger dog, but is interested in showing off her speed to anyone. She is submissive to other dogs and people and loves to initiate contact. Comments: We are looking for playmates in the Renton / Rainier Beach - Seattle area. Posted: 8/4/05 |
| Name: Jennifer Duenwald Contact: jbjackson-duenwald@att.net or (425)747-2247 DogName: Madison (Maddie) Breed: Great PyreneesX DogAge: DOB 5/3/05 Size: 35 lbs and gaining Play_style: Maddie is a spayed female Great Pyrenees mix who has zero ball drive but enjoys puppy activities--wrestling, sniffing, investigating, seeing what she can get into her mouth before I get whatever it is out of her mouth. Maddie lives with a 5 year old, 100 lb. male neutered Labrador Retriever but needs a more assertive playmate, preferably one from the herding or working breed groups. Maddie has completed her initial vaccine series including bordetella (kennel cough) but because of her age (and that very distractable puppy brain) I am not comfortable taking her to a dog park. Maddie is working on her initial puppy manners (sit, leave-it, go-home, go-kitchen, off, wait, let's-go)and will start her first formal obedience class 8/8. Comments: We live in SE Bellevue (near BCC), have a fully fenced yard, have lots of new scents and smells for your dog or puppy to check out (mmm...diapers...)and would MUCH prefer to have you come to us, rather than vice versa, simply because of the chaos involved in organizing my two sons (ages 1 and 4) and my two dogs and getting everyone into the same vehicle at the same time. Posted: 8/4/05 |
| Name: Gail Viamonte Contact: rainrain88@comcast.net DogName: Yoki Breed: Australian Shepherd DogAge: 3 months Size: 21 lbs. Play_style: Yoki loves to play with other dogs/puppies. He wrestles and play bows frequently. He can bark and growl as he plays, but always only in puppy play. He prefers dogs his own size, but plays well with gentle larger dogs as well. He would love a buddy to play with! Comments: We live in the Sammamish area and have a large fenced backyard. We are not working for the summer, but will be back at work come September. Anytime is great now, but weekends are best after September. We can travel as well! Posted: 7/20/05 |
| Name: Kristen contact: asianpear@gmail.com DogName: bay bay Breed: shih tzu DogAge: almost 7 months Size: 10 pounds Play_style: bay bay loves playing 'go get it', investigating new things, and is by no means an alpha dog. he likes playing with dogs simmilar to his size/stregneth. i have him on a raw diet, it'd be nice but not necessary to find someone who also feeds raw. (we don't support off leash parks) Comments: i live in Kent but am very willing to travel, any time is a good time. Posted: 7/16/05 |
| Name: Jan Orange contact: jsorange3535@msn.com 425-957-3535 DogName: Allie Breed: Bichon Frise DogAge: One and a half years Size: 13 lbs. short Play_style: Allie now wants to engage with other dogs. She has been very shy but is coming out of her shell. She would not like an aggressive dog. Comments: Live in Bellevue. Weekends preferred; some evenings are possible. Posted: 7/16/05 |
| Name: Wendy Hughes-Jelen Contact: 206.686.4663 or wendy@pensandpixels.com DogName: Sophia Breed: Italian greyhound DogAge: Born 4/1/03 Size: 14.3 #, 18 inches at shoulder Play_style: Sophia is shy. Sophia led a secluded life until we adopted her in the middle of May 2005. Although we were told she liked other dogs and people, it became clear she had not met very many. Although at first scared to death of even small dogs (we went to the small/shy dog park at Magnuson), she is beginning to take an interest in other small dogs. I think 10 little dogs milling around at the park is pretty overwhelming and would like to find a couple of small dog buddies to pal around with on occasion. She does crouch down and bark at another dog that is barking - what they are saying I am not sure. With us she plays with stuffed animals and tugs on them and also a rope. Working on things like fetch and stuff. Comments: We live in West Seattle. I will soon have a fully fenced back yard (hasn't happened yet). Evenings and weekends are best (late afternoon is also a possibility, say 4-ish). Posted: 7/6/05 |
| Name: Lisha Jacoy Contact: lishafairshter@hotmail.com DogName: Porter Breed: Pug DogAge: 9 months Size: 16 lbs. Play_style: We've had Porter since he was 7 weeks old. He is just the best! But we both work and he is by himself from 7 am until 4 pm every day except for Wednesday ( when we take him to doggie daycare). My hope is to find Porter a play friend for the weekends or after work. He is a very good puppy and well trained. His play style is to just run around with other dog his size, sniff, investigate etc. He never barks, growls, bites, etc. If he gets very excited there is a lot of kissing involved and maybe some playful mouthing but that is mostly with humans. What would be great is to find him a friend and be able to swap babysitting services. We have a hige fully dog proof backyard, complete with chicken wire along the bottom of the fence so even the toughest diggers can't escape. Comments: We live in West Seattle and haven't really toured any of the dog parks Seattle has to offer. Any suggestions on where to meet would be appreciated. :) Posted: 6/29/05 |
| Name: Matthew Contact: mattpdb@u.washington.edu or (206)245-4622 DogName: Leon Breed: Akita DogAge: 3.5 months Size: 35 lbs. Play_style: Leon likes to play chase and fetch. He hasn't had much experience with other dogs so I don't know his wrestling type. He is very friendly and has not displayed any aggressive tendencies to other dogs when I've taken him walking. Comments: I live in the Fremont area, very close to Gas Works. I am free in the afternoons and evenings at any time. However, my yard is too small for any real puppy play, so it would be preferable if I visit other's yards. Because of my close proximity to the Burke-Gilman Trail, I'm interested to see how a walking buddy would affect our walking routine, so if someone would like a walking partner, I'm game. Posted: 6/29/05 |
| Name: Kristen Contact: kristen@carrot.com DogName: Stewey Breed: German Shorthaired Pointer/Husky DogAge: 6 months Size: 45+ lbs, 23" Play_style: Stewey loves to play chase and wrestle, but not too rough. He seems to get along great with all the dogs he has met. Ideal playmate would be a younger dog, male or female, of similar size with a lot of energy to burn. Comments: I live in Maple Leaf and would like to meet at either Golden Gardens, Magnuson, playmates house or possibly my house(small fenced yard.) Would love to meet in the morning before 11 on weekdays or in the evening around 8. Posted: 6/27/05 |
| Name: Christine Wright Contact: christinewright_2003@hotmail.com DogName: Kenta Breed: Akita DogAge: 5 months Size: 50 lbs and growing Play_style: Kenta loves playing with other dogs. He style is more chase, wrestle, and tumble but he is more gentle with smaller dogs (if the other dog is too small he will probably sit on it during play though so it's probably not the best match - beagle puppy size is fine). He does react if the other dog is fearful or aggressive so only friendly, well-socialized puppy or dog please! If your dog loves to play and run, has energy to burn, and can tolerate a puppy jumping all over him/her then please send me an e-mail! Comments: I work from home in the Redmond/Sammamish area so schedule is flexible. We have a large fenced yard for secure play! Posted: 6/23/05 |
| Name: Dan Renfrow Contact: 206-200-7165 or drenfrow@u.washington.edu DogName: Linus Breed: Neapolitan Mastiff DogAge: 13 weeks Size: 30 lbs and growing! Play_style: Linus is new to us, so his style is still a mystery to us. His breeder told us that he tends to do his own thing more so than rough-house with his siblings. Alone he's an angel, but with an accomplice he can (and often does) get into mischief. Comments: We live on Capitol Hill. Ideally it'd be nice to find Linus a buddy who has a fenced yard in the neighborhood. Coordinated trips to Volunteer Park would work too. Linus is going to grow into a giant (around 200 lbs), so I want to provide him with maximum socialization to people, places and other animals. Posted: 6/15/05 |
| Name: Pam Contact: shabbychicgal@comcast.net DogName: Alex Breed: German Shepard mix DogAge: 3yrs Size: 90 pounds Play_style: Alex is quite gentle and loves to interact with small and large dogs.Loves to play chase and run. Has done very well at doggie-day care..no problems. Comments: I work full time.My yard isn't fenced.Would also like to know of any closer off leash parks other than Marymore. Posted: 5/25/05 |
| Name: Brian Contact: 206-547-4855 or blandau@mindspring.com DogName: Grizz Breed: Malamute/Shepherd Mix DogAge: 7 Size: 80 lbs Play_style: Grizz is a gentle, relatively submissive fun dog with a deep bark. He plays well with all dog types..enjoys wrestling, tug-o-war, exploring, and just being around other dogs. He shares his bones and toys with other dogs. Comments: I live in Wallingford and have a fenced side yard for the dog. I'm looking for other well behaved dogs (no excessive chewing or hole digging) to hang out my home and yard during weekday working hours with Grizz. Posted: 5/25/05 |
| Name: niklas christensen Phone: niklas@hydro.washington.edu or 206-617-2050 DogName: Lola Breed: Golden Retriever DogAge: 3 mos Size: 20 lbs Play_style: Lola likes to chase and wrestle with other dogs. She's not shy at all and bigger dogs seem to be fine as long as they're okay with puppy nipping. Comments: I live by greenlake and have a small fenced back yard. I'm looking for someone in the area that also has a fenced yard that wants to take turns watching each others dog. we could each take them for a few hours one day a week, so we get a little break one day a week and the dogs get some play time 2 days a week. Posted: 5/25/05 |
| Name: Rachel Atkins Contact: raynalex@msn.com or 206-459-2465 DogName: Lady Breed: Springer Spaniel/Golden Retriever DogAge: 6 months Size: 35lbs and 2.5 feet tall Play_style: She is very scary around other playful, hyper dogs. I have taken her to the off-leash park, but I think she needs to be around one dog at a time. She hides when there are too many dogs around. She loves kids and loves to chase our two cats. Comments: She is a very sweet, but stubborn puppy. I need someone to play with her in the evenings. I work during the day, so evenings are best. I live in Tukwila, but will travel to south seattle or kent... Posted: 5/24/05 |
| Name: Lorna Latal Contact: (206) 282-0509 or klatal@hotmail.com DogName: Molly Breed: Lhasa Apso DogAge: 4 months Size: 7 lbs (7 inches at shoulders) Play_style: Molly likes to wrestle, play tug, & chase. She has not played with many other dogs, although she likes little dogs we come across when out for a walk. She seems to be intimidated by larger dogs, but can warm up after a bit if they are not too roudy. We also have a small 7 yr. old Yorkie (Wiley) and they get along well. Comments: We live on Westlake Ave. near Freemont and don't have a yard. Weekday evenings would work best. Posted: 5/16/05 |
| Name: Yvonne Contact: yvonnemarielopez@hotmail.com DogName: Brady Breed: yorkie DogAge: 11 mos Size: 5 1/2 pounds 12 inches tall Play_style: Brady likes wrestling and chasing. Comments: We live in Eastlake and go to the small dog park in Magnuson park somewhat regularly. Daytime preferred over evenings. Posted: 5/11/05 |
| Name: jodi and Alissa Contact: minolizard@msn.com DogName: Lily Breed: chi-terrier mix DogAge: 3 months Size: 3 lbs. Play_style: Lily is just figuring out the world. She loves sticks and chew toys (teething) and is totally submissive! She loves to run, jump and is learning how to bark while playing (unfortunately, though it is cute). She is good at sharing toys. She has only been with us a week and was only with her littermates prior, so really the whole world is a new experience. We would like her to have puppy friends to grow with and older friends to mentor her. Comments: We live in northish seattle- over by greenlake. Some day hours will work, and we would like weekend playdates. Ideally, we hope that lily will make a friend or two who's parents are up for pupcare switches on vacations and occasional weekends. We are open to most play time options, and places, though we are new to Seattle and I do not know my way around yet. Posted: 5/5/05 |
| Name: Melissa & Robert Rapier Contact: melissar@wizards.com DogName: Roxy Breed: Rat Terrier DogAge: 11 weeks on May 2nd Size: Currently: 10ish lbs. Adult size: 20ish lbs, 15-17" Play_style: We've had Roxy for just over two weeks and one thing is for certain- she loves to play! And she's very social. She may at first be a teeny bit shy with a larger dog, but she warms up super fast. She likes to chase and be chased. She is a little nippy when she is extremely excited, and we want, through socialization with other dogs, to curb that tendency. She gets along with dogs large and small. The type of dog I'd prefer to see her playing with is the outgoing type, either her size or larger that can help teach her some leasons that she'll actually listen to. She has very good intentions, she's just young and excitable. Comments: We'd love to get together during the week in the evening so she feels fulfilled at the end of our work day. Anytime after around 6:00 is great. We're also available on the weekend. Posted: 4/29/05 |
