Foster Based

Rescue

Portland, OR

Our Mission

I have been a volunteer in dog rescue for over 25 years. Originally, in the 90s, I picked up street dogs, got medical care, found their homes or re-homed them. Now I focus on local owner surrenders that are advertised free or cheap on Craigslist or Facebook. Other local rescues will not accept these dogs and they have a very low chance of finding a safe forever home. Most of them are either passed from home to home with no vet care and increasing behavior issues from neglect or abuse, or used in fighting rings or otherwise by sick people. I do it out of love and concern for dogs. I have also volunteered in the lost and found animal world and moderated several FB L & F pages and was on TV to talk about the topic. I have helped many people find their lost dogs.
