PORTLAND, Ore (KOIN)- It's time for the Pet Of The Week, presented by BarkZone! Each week, we feature an animal that needs a new forever home. And we want to help you to find a pet to love, too! Today's Pet Of The Week is Goose! He's a 47 pound border collie that's about a year and a half old. According to the Oregon Humane Society, he's the biggest sweetheart who wants to be the sunshine on your rainy days. Goose is best suited for an adult-only home with an experienced dog owner, and probably needs to be the only pet in your home. But he loves to learn and go on adventures. So if you would like to meet goose and consider bringing him into you home, visit OregonHumane.org and look for the code number 318812.
