POPB currently focuses its efforts in the Oregon and Southwest Washington region. This page of our site will be a forum for all animal welfare-related events and issues that affect our neighborhoods. There are always lots of activities, efforts and events going on. Please check back often to see what’s new!
We welcome ideas and suggestions about issues that might be of interest. If you have a suggestion or submission please contact us via email or 503-774-3770; or PO Box 6867, Portland, OR 97228
Please spay or neuter your pets!
Throughout the spring and summer, animal shelters throughout the country are inundated with litters of kittens and puppies. Tragically many of these orphaned animals will not find a loving home.
For Oregon low cost spay/neuter options please visit Pet Over-Population Prevention Advocates. For Oregon, Washington and Nationwide Neuter/Spay Assistance and Information visit spay/neuter referral resource blog.
Helping Chained Dogs
Dogs Deserve Better, 2003 First Place Winner of the ASPCA/Chase Pet Protector Award, is a voice for chained and penned dogs, whose sadness speaks only through the eyes. As the days become years, many of these dogs sit, lay, eat, and defecate within the same 10-foot radius. Chained by the neck, they exist without respect, love, exercise, social interaction, and sometimes even basic nourishment. They live as prisoners, yet long to be pets. For help or to volunteer please contact a local rep
Do you know of or suspect animal neglect or abuse?
Animal cruelty is a problem that affects our whole society. Neglect can often be corrected with education and encouragement, but confronting someone with allegations of neglect or abuse is difficult and may not be the best course of action. If you suspect something, please report the problem to the OHS Investigations Team. To learn more about the connection between animal abuse and human violence please visit pet-abuse.com.
Please prepare for the safety of your animals in the event of any emergency
