We adopted a dog on 12/14/2018. The operation here is quite efficient and the staff seems genuinely interested in helping make a good pet-adopter match.

You can learn information about the various adoptable pets on their website, or you can just go in.

When you arrive, you can go and see the animals... and select up to 2 to meet and play with. You meet them 1 at a time, and after you meet those 2, you can select 2 more.

A staff member brings you to a small play room... brings in the pets one at a time and let's you interact and play with the pet. The staff is very knowledgeable and gives a good rundown on what is known about the pet and how he/she did on various tests (medical, interacting with other animals, etc).

Oregon Humane Society also offers a pet behavior helpline... a free service to all pet owners in Oregon (whether you adopted the pet or got it from another source).
