Multnomah County Animal Services is dedicated to practices that lead to lifesaving. We do not euthanize healthy and safe animals, or euthanize for space. Our shelter live-release rate is high, at 90%.
As part of the review of Animal Services, Lara Media is conducting small group feedback sessions, interviews, and collecting survey responses. Learn more or sign up to participate.
Thanks to overwhelming community support, many animals at our shelter have been adopted, and selection is limited. Thank you to our transfer partners, our volunteers, and to adopters and advocates.
The Portland area is one of the most dog-friendly communities in the nation, but our dog-topia only works if we all observe local ordinances that keep people and animals safe- including leash laws.
Tahoe was adopted years ago, and is now living out his golden years with his family.
The health advisory for recreational use at Wapato Marsh (Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge) has been lifted. While cyanotoxin levels may be safe for people, they are STILL ELEVATED and UNSAFE for Dogs.
