ABOUT US
Our purpose is to be a safety net for Gorge dogs.
We provide high quality care for all dogs during their stay at the Hukari Animal Shelter. We provide adoption support services for Gorge dogs needing a permanent home which in turn reduces euthanasia and we are a resource for local dog owners.
Adopt A Dog Inc. is a non-profit charitable organization. We work closely with the Hood River County Animal Control and Sheriff’s Office to provide every dog housed at the Hukari Animal Shelter high quality care during his or her stay.
Since our inception in mid 2007, Hood River Adopt A Dog (HRAAD) has cared for thousands of canine shelter guests at an average of 275 per year. For those we have not been able to find homes for we have found alternative placements for rehabilitation and eventual adoption.
Our goal is to provide care, love, exercise, socialization and training to our adoptable dogs so they are ready to be adopted to loving and forever homes. HRAAD’s policies insure that all age appropriate adoptable dogs are spayed or neutered before adoption and that all adopted puppies are guaranteed to be spayed or neutered when age appropriate as part of our adoption contract.
In addition, HRAAD works with Hood River County Animal Control to locate and reunite lost Gorge dogs with their owners.
The HRAAD crew and volunteers work together to provide transportation and shelter during local and national natural disasters. We also work with local K-12 schools to provide education and volunteer opportunities.
