"STUMPTOWN RESCUE" GIVE GUIDE 2025 PLEASE HELP SHELTER DOGS with MEDICAL NEEDS

GIVE GUIDE 2025

Stumptown FB 11/5/25

"Who knows, maybe the next dog we save will uplift your life by becoming your new family member and your kind donation helped make it happen." Check us out on Willamette Week Give!Guide today: https://giveguide.org/nonprofits/stumptown-strays

www.giveguide.org

"Mr. Rogers once shared that when he was a child and was scared by the news, his mother would tell him “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”

In 2025 when many of us are frightened and angered by things we’re seeing in the news, we’re leaning hard into being helpers in our communities. And part of that for us means focusing our energy into how Stumptown Strays can help and care for our corner of the world - by giving shelter dogs with treatable medical needs, who may never have seen the outside of a shelter, the chance they deserve at a healthy life with a loving family.

Approximately 334,000 dogs are euthanized in shelters every year. The expense of surgery and medical care is a major contributor driving that statistic. Most shelters are over capacity and unable to afford to take on expensive medical treatment.

Stumptown Strays is uniquely positioned to help these animals and alleviate strain on our shelter system!

When you donate to Stumptown Strays through Willamette Week’s Give!Guide, you’re helping us lower that euthanasia number one dog at a time.

Today also happens to be a Big Give Day where any donations of $10 or more enter you into a drawing to win a prize package of an airplane tour with Envi Adventures, tickets to the Oregon Ballet, $250 in gift cards to Le Pigeon and Canard, AND a staycation with Shift Vacation Rentals. All of that could give your brain a really nice break before jumping back into helping more!

"Who knows, maybe the next dog we save will uplift your life by becoming your new family member and your kind donation helped make it happen."

Stumptown Strays Rescue is located in Portland Oregon.

Mission

Stumptown Strays is committed to rescuing shelter dogs (and the occasional cat!) with treatable medical needs, providing lifesaving veterinary care, and aiding these dogs on their path to their forever homes.

According to the ASPCA, hundreds of thousands of dogs are euthanized in shelters annually. The high cost of surgery and medical care is a major contributor driving this statistic. Founded by veterinarians, Stumptown Strays partners with our local over-crowded animal shelters and rescues as well as other dog rescue organizations in Washington, California, and Texas, to take in dogs with treatable medical needs that may prevent them from ever making it out of the shelter.

Once an animal has received and recovered from the medical treatment and surgeries we provide, we work in partnership with our foster families to match each dog with their forever families. We could not do this important and expensive work without your generous donations!

THE BEST #370529 listed as american shelter dog, male 6 yrs 1 mth 70 lbs

https://www.multcopets.org/adoptable/370529

Meet The Best, a handsome American Shelter Dog ready to find his perfect, patient forever home. The Best is looking for a home where any two-legged friends are at least 8 years old. He loves his people and is eager to bond! He may prefer to be your one and only canine companion. He may do fine with a single, mellow dog in the home after a very slow and proper introduction, but he will be happiest in a home where he is not sharing his space with multiple dogs or a very active, exuberant dog. The Best can pull hard on the leash, so a harness is strongly recommended for safe and comfortable walks while he continues his training. If you are looking for a loyal companion and have a calm, dog-savvy home environment, come meet The Best today!

Here's what you need to know about me:

I'm easy going. Wanna go for a walk? Okay. Hang out in the yard? No problem. Just relax on the couch? I can do that. I'm pretty happy to go at your pace and I don't really need much more than most dogs do. If you're looking for a steady companion, I'm all yours.

I'd like a relaxed home. I wouldn't say I'm "old"... I've just been around for a while. And that's made me appreciate the finer things in life like naps in the sun, looking out windows, and the special joy when you're able to scratch juuuuust the right spot. I like to take it easy at home - I'm not up for lots of activity.

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

His true passions in life are yummy snacks 🥓 and extensive amounts of nice pets 👋, and he's looking for a calm, relaxed home to truly embrace his inner velvet hippo. If your idea of a perfect evening involves a cozy blanket and a devoted, six-year-old pup acting as a weighted lap pad, Cheeky is ready to be your main squeeze. 💖
