Must Love Dogs NW is a group of dedicated dog lovers serving the following locations: Vancouver Washington, Portland Oregon and their surrounding areas. We are a dog rescue organization with a mission to provide services that help combat the issues facing the homeless and soon-to-be homeless dogs in our community. Our team of dog fosters, canine behaviorists, and volunteers have a combined experience of over 100 years, and have saved over 1000 lives, through various rescue efforts. We are an accomplished group with an eagerness to serve the canine companions in our community.

Because of our comprehensive behavior assessments on all of our dogs, and thorough checks on all potential adopters, you can rely on the knowledge and experience of Must Love Dogs NW to provide you or your dog with the best possible companion match.

We believe that many dogs are unnecessarily abandoned because of easily solved, unwanted behavior. To combat this, we offer behavior classes to all adopters, and all individuals requiring help with their dogs. We believe that our long-term approach to support the families and dogs that we unite is essential to our dedication of service to the community.

Our other efforts include an expansive spay and neuter program to prevent unwanted/accidental litters in both dogs and cats, microchip clinics to assist in the location and retrieval of lost dogs, rescue endeavors to save/assist injured and abused dogs within our community, and a foster network to provide temporary placement and training services while helping homeless dogs find their new homes.
