About Us

MISSION:  Save the Pets believes that animals and people enrich each others lives.  Through rescue and adoption we advocate for the animals and serve as a liaison between animal welfare organizations to end suffering and the homelessness of animals.

Save the Pets is a non-profit 501(c)-3. The primary goal of Save the Pets, to eliminate pet over-population in Lane County, is being aided by increasing adoption rates in our community and educating people on the importance of spaying and neutering their pets. Save the Pets has helped local shelters and other rescue groups by creating a venue to showcase animals available for adoption at off-site adoption events. The success of such events has shown that the community can support an alternative site for pet adoptions.

Save the Pets is run solely by volunteers who advocate for the rights of animals to be treated with the respect and kindness they deserve. Since the inception of Save the Pets in April 2007, over 2000 animals have been placed into loving homes.
