Portland WOOF Over My Head

Dog rescue in Portland, OR

We rescue dogs and foster them in our home, one or two tails at a time. We offer our foster dogs and our adopters a personal experience. I consider dogs ready for adoption when they are not only healthy, fixed, vaccinated, and micro-chipped, but also, comfortable, happy, house trained and ready to transition happily to a new home.
Our dogs come from a variety of places: local dogs surrendered by their owners, dogs from the streets of Mexico, and dogs from high kill shelters in California and other states.

Additional adoption info

I rehabilitate, train, and foster dogs for whatever length of time I believe makes them most ready for a successful forever adoption. I check in with adopters the day after adoption, and then again several days later. I am in contact with the majority of my adopters forever.
