WELCOME TO OREGON DACHSHUND RESCUE, INC.

Oregon Dachshund Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit, all-volunteer, no-kill Dachshund rescue organization serving Oregon and Washington. Our aim is to find the best homes possible for Dachshunds who have been neglected, abused, injured or surrendered for euthanization. We are a 501(c)3 registered organization.

We believe that every single one of these wonderful little dogs deserves love and care, but life doesn't always work that way. Sometimes dogs are injured and their owners cannot afford or provide appropriate care. Sometimes dogs are used solely as breeding vessels and are tossed aside when they are no longer useful. Sometimes families under-estimate what dog ownership requires and realize too late that they cannot care for their pet. Sometimes dogs outlive their humans and there is no one to take them in. That is where the Oregon Dachshund Rescue comes in.

ODR, Inc. takes in Dachshunds in need, cares for their physical needs, and finds suitable homes. We do have special criteria for finding homes, as Dachshunds have special needs due to their physical nature. Optimal home circumstances include adults who will be able to give time, care and affection. More information about adoption is included in this website.

The Rescue is supported solely by the generous support of people like you.  We rely 100% on your financial donations, as well as volunteering time to help where you can. These little dogs need your help! If you are a Dachshund lover and would like to join us in the care of these pups, please browse this site for ways to contribute. You can donate money (we do accept Visa, Mastercard, or PayPal), purchase supplies from our Supply List, or offer services you think might be helpful to the Rescue.
