The Best Dog Rescues in Lane County
According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, approximately 3.1 million dogs enter U.S. animal shelters nationwide every year.
Even though 2 million dogs are adopted every year, approximately 390,000 shelter dogs are still euthanized every year. Sad.
You can help dogs that end up in shelters/rescues by adopting these dogs.
We have researched and compiled a list of the best dog rescues in your area.
We should mention that our list is not exhaustive because any non-profit organization that takes dogs off the streets and offers dogs second chances deserves to be on our list. However, we do not have the space to include everyone.
If you know of any reputable dog rescue that we have not included on our list, please drop the name of the rescue in our comment section below.
Note that the animal rescues listed in this article did not pay us to include them in the list. We did our research without bias.
As a disclaimer, we will like to advise you to do your due diligence before working with any of the listed dog rescue organizations.
Also, always conduct your research and consult with specialists in your region before making any pet-related decisions.
If you think that rescuing a dog is not for you, and you want to buy a puppy instead, see our article on how much dogs of different breeds cost. Also, see our list of reputable dog breeders in different US states here.

The Mission Statement of Shelter Animal Resource Alliance (SARA): “The purpose of Shelter Animal Resource Alliance (S.A.R.A.) is to rescue, assist and advocate for the lost and homeless animals at animal shelters. S.A.R.A. is a nonprofit organization located in Eugene, OR, dedicated to rescuing animals from euthanasia. While in our care, we provide these cats and dogs with a safe and comfortable environment to live in, all necessary medical care, high-quality food and treats, and plenty of love and attention until we are able to find them their forever homes.
Our main fundraiser for this life-saving work is our thrift store, S.A.R.A.`s Treasures, where we sell new and gently-used donated items, with all of the proceeds benefiting the rescued cats and dogs in our programs. You’ll find collectibles, jewelry, knick knacks, clothing, books, and so much more. It’s the perfect place for prospective adopters to meet and spend time with kitties who are ready for their forever homes.”
