My wife and I went here looking for a companion for our other dog Poncho, not sure if he would take to a puppy? It took sometime for Poncho to warm up to Roxy(formerly Gamba). They are now two peas in a pod. Clean facility, good experience with the stuff on hand that day(05/29/2022)

After having a really stressful and frustrating experience at OHS, we decided to try this place. We knew exactly which dog we wanted to visit with after researching their site. When we got there, there was one family ahead of us looking at the same dog so they told us to go enjoy the day and they’d update us in a few hours. We went to a nearby park and got the call that family didn’t work out. As soon as our girl walked, we knew she was going home with us. The staff was extremely pleasant to work with and answered all of our questions about her history. Could not have had a better experience. Highly recommend this place (just be sure to familiarize yourself with their process beforehand and their current dogs.)

I love this place! Please adopt and support this no kill shelter! After trying for months to find a puppy, there was a group of rescued puppies at the shelter. They are only open a few days a week and you have to get there quite early (if there is a puppy you are trying to adopt) and make an appointment to meet the dog. They only allow 2-3 meetings a day for each dog. Which I think is excellent! So thoughtful for the dog! I recommend this shelter to people looking for dogs as well as looking for volunteer opportunities! We've had Rocket for almost a year and are so grateful to Family Dogs New Life!

This is such an amazing shelter! They do so much good for the dogs they care for while they wait for their forever homes! We came to drop off some donations today, and one of the attendants stayed to wait for us to get there & let us meet the sweetest boy named Ringo.

Do you allow people that live in an apartment to adopt?

Ashley | Jul 24, 2020
Michele Lorenzini | Jul 25, 2020

I think they do, depending on the dog. The website says you need to have your landlord be available for approval when they try to reach them

Do you take or need volunteers?

You can check their website for Volunteer Oppurtunites, there is a decent array of options. and when in doubt you can call or email them.

I have 2 9 & 1/2 yr old male lab & golden retriever mix dogs that I’m no longer in a position to keep. It breaks my heart but I have to give them up. I’m in a major bind and have to leave Oregon today, is there any way you can help? Lisa

I have a 1 year old black sable German shepherd that I have to give up. We are relocating to a different state, where we do not have a yard for him to run around. He is potty trained.

On average how much is the adoption fee cost?

Alita Kaletina | Jul 25, 2018
Stuart Peterson | Jul 26, 2018

It's based on the age of the dog. We paid $300 for our Monroe, who was about 14 weeks when he came home with us.
