It is always nice to see a positive story in the news...there are good hearted people in the world after all :-) Thanks for posting.
Thought I'd put this up on the main board -- a caution to dog owners (from www.dolittler.com):
Beware blue-green algae––it kills
Oregon State University confirmed that four dogs in that state died as a result of romping in a pond containing an ove…
Thank so much for posting this!
I hadn't seen it before, and it brought tears to my eyes.
Those are some very lucky pups and pilots.
Great help, Lorri. Thanks once again!
I have not been to any vets in Lake Oswego, but here are some links you might start with:

Seeking recommendations for veterinarians in/around Lake Oswego. I have mostly geriatric dogs, so senior canine care is my primary concern. I'll be new in town so your suggestions will be a welcome guide.

I like and agree with this blogger's coverage of the story:
Hey all -- Planning to bring about 20 dogs from a high-kill shelter down here in LA up to Butte Humane and a couple of rescues in Redding on August 27. Next day driving up to PDX to scout properties. Not too familiar with the area but the SW region…
The colors are so rich and it looks practically 3-D. Beautiful!
Excellent e-letter, Anne. Thanks for your perseverance in the face of determined passivity.

Hi Fellow Animal People,
Writing from So Cali, which I hope to escape in about a year. Meanwhile absorbing the wonders of Portland digitally, and just checked out Dove Lewis and their 7-minute video (find on DL's site and YouTube). Impressive doesn…
Portland's pet-friendly resource group.
Thanks, Lorri, I emailed OHS. Pretty sure they do animal housing and adoptions, but maybe not law enforcement pertaining to animals. I think Multnomah Co Animal Services is responsible for that. Scanned their site and the county code and didn't spot…

Hi, how are you? I am good. I am interested in moving to the city and thought I would contact you because you look friendly... Can you tell me more about Portland?
And I don't know if you've ever visited or lived in Philadelphia, or Burlington, VT, but I would be interested in seeing how they compare to Portland?
I look forward to hearing from you!

Jessica said… - Yes, I certainly understand the responsibilities. I am in school for a little while longer and must finish that first before moving to Portland. I am sorry to hear about your wrist, do take care of yourself...and I look forward to trading stories as well. Jessica

- Hi Holland,
Portland appeals to me for all the same reasons, I love my animals and as far as having a dog, it will never happen as long as I live in Santa Barbara, CA. Although it's beautiful here, I am pretty much over it, and ready for a change. I saw your profile on this site and thought 'hey we have something in common'! Portland is so pet friendly and it's wonderful. Are you still planning on making the move?
Hope to hear from you.
Jessica

- Wow! Love your description of a motley crew... they sound great! Thor is a recycled pyrenees and his sister is a recycled husky. We picked them up at different shelters around town. Portland has some great rescues and shelters!
Take care.

- Thanks for the compliment on the photo :) That's Thor in the picture. What kind of rescue dogs do you have? Maybe I'll get to meet you all at one of the many dog events in Portland sometime.

Wenda Rose said… - No, still in Montrose. Trying to escape before the summer totally sets in, but if that doesn't work out, I might be here till school starts in September.
Yeah, we should keep in touch!

- Dove Lewis is an amazing facility. They have saved two of my dog's lives with their emergency care, so of course they have a fond place in my heart for that. Some people complain about them because it is really expensive, but it is akin to emergency medicine for people--you don't go to the ER unless you need to! I think they are a great facility and Portland is lucky to have them.
