For more than 150 years OHS has been sheltering homeless animals, fighting cruelty and neglect, and working to build a caring, compassionate community in Oregon. Located in Portland, Oregon, we serve the needs of over 11,000 companion animals each year. OHS is an Oregon-based nonprofit that relies on donor support for its adoption, education, and humane law enforcement programs. This is the offici

al Facebook Fan Page of the Oregon Humane Society (OHS). This is intended to be a forum to share news, events, happenings, pets for adoption, adoption updates, and more related animal information. Users of this page are welcome to share their own related content. Users are expected to abide by the Facebook Terms of Use and the OHS Facebook Terms of use. Although many animal shelters share name similarities such as Humane Society or SPCA, OHS is not affiliated with any other shelter or humane organization with these descriptions. OHS is not a branch of a national or state group, for example. OHS does work with many other shelters across the west coast to provide needed services to animals throughout the area. Visit our website http://www.oregonhumane.org/visit-us/ to learn more. The Oregon Humane Society (OHS) Facebook Fan Page is a place for people to share our love of pets. OHS will post a variety of news, events, advocacy information, rescue/investigation news, available pets for adoption, and adoption updates we receive. We encourage adopters to post your own updates, and to interact with our posts by sharing, commenting, and more. We welcome your ideas, feedback, and constructive criticism. That said, please understand that we are not able to provide specific details on individual pets here, or to comment on open investigations cases. For more details about a particular pet than are available on our website (www.oregonhumane.org/adopt), first and foremost we encourage you to come visit the shelter in person.

Tunnel King's bravery helped other shelter dogs. 😊

More than a dozen dogs in a remote area needed help and our Second Chance stepped in. A wildfire was nearby, the dogs were evacuated and brought to safety.

OHS' Behavior and Rescue Center allowed them to have a calm space to settle in. Many of the dogs were nervous and took time to open up, except Tunnel King. 🐶 He immediately greeted staff and volunteers with his tail wagging happily behind him.

Tunnel King showed his friends that there was nothing to be afraid of. His confidence and relaxed energy helped ease the other dogs. ❤️

Like Tunnel King, you can be a helper to the many other animals needing rescue, recovery, and specialized care as they prepare for adoption. Be a hero to animals today - bit.ly/TunnelKing

Charlie arrived at OHS after being transferred from Multnomah County Animal Services. He was previously a stray, so there was very little information about him. What we did know was that he was big, strong, and slightly silly. 🐶

Charlie spent nearly five months in the shelter and had no interest from potential adopters. Staff and volunteers made sure he got what he needed while he waited, from going on runs to learning new tricks.

Today, Charlie is living with a potential adopter through the Diamond in the Ruff program, where potential adopters can foster pets, or do a trial adoption.

Your support on presented by Lithia Subaru of Oregon City and Subaru of America, Inc.helps pets like Charlie get every opportunity to find their match. ❤️ Double your impact today up to $60,000, thanks to our sponsors! bit.ly/OregonHumaneDayOfGiving

Ginger’s adoption journey hasn’t been linear. She was first adopted from OHS in 2022, and since then has lived in many different homes, six to be exact. Each time we have wished her well on her new journey home, she has made her way back to us.

Your support on presented by Lithia Subaru of Oregon City and Subaru of America, Inc. ensures pets like Ginger always have a safe place to return to when, to no one’s fault, things don’t work out.

Ginger is still looking for a home. While she waits, OHS is here to make sure she gets the care she needs—from specialized food to maintain her healthy coat to daily playtime, and even a party to celebrate her fifth birthday. 🎉

Dot the kitten wasn’t using the litter box as expected. He arrived at Oregon Humane Society’s Behavior and Rescue Center to learn how.

Litter box issues are one of the most common reasons that cats and kittens are returned to an animal shelter. Dot has been working with the trainers at the BRC for a few weeks to get ready for adoption. 🐱

He will continue to receive expert guidance within the calming environment of the BRC until he finds a family. ❤️

We love to see living their best lives. From sunbathing to cuddles with the neighbor's dog, Charlie has hit the jackpot!

His adopter said:

"Charlie is the sweetest boy ever and is a blessed addition to our family. He loves his new BFF 'Bella" our neighborhood friend, Mt. Tabor Park, snuggles, car rides, sunshine, and of course, treats, and belly rubs! He thinks cats are pretty cool too, but he wishes they would play with him more 🙂 I truly can't thank you enough for recommending Charlie to me, he is the perfect dog and I love him very much!"
