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.

About Portland WOOF Over My Head
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.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
