Oregon Dog Rescue

Mission

Oregon Dog Rescue is committed to saving lives by providing a safe haven for dogs in need. As a no-kill, 501 (c)(3) non-profit shelter, our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome dogs from overcrowded shelters, owner surrenders, and high-risk environments. Every dog receives medical care, socialization, and a personalized adoption plan to help ensure lifelong success in their new homes. 🐾

Bottom Line for Portland

Oregon Dog Rescue is a no-kill shelter deeply rooted in the Pacific Northwest, rescuing dogs from at-risk situations and placing over 19,000 into loving homes since 2007. By reducing euthanasia rates and supporting dogs in crisis, we work to strengthen the community through compassion and connection. Every adoption has a ripple effect of kindness across this city. Volunteers, fosters, adopters, and donors are the true heartbeat of our mission - every helping hand saves lives!
