Pioneer Humane Society/Pendleton Animal Welfare Shelter is a local, private, non-profit 501(c)3 non-profit animal shelter located in Pendleton, Oregon. Founded in 1975 by a group of compassionate citizens, we are dedicated to helping homeless, lost, and at-risk animals and pet owners in our town and surrounding areas.
We do our work by operating a no-kill shelter facility for homeless animals; through education and outreach programs; encouraging and assisting with spay/neuter; helping low-income pet owners with our pet food assistance program, and much more.
PAW Team's mission is to save lives and reduce suffering by providing free veterinary care to pets of the homeless and those experiencing extreme poverty.
Animal rescue by surrender or pull from high kill shelters. Although our original passion was dachshunds, we rescue, care for and rehabilitate many breeds including the old, young, sick and special needs.
We are a team of four highly dedicated humans with many years of experience and a passion for helping rats who need a little extra care and support. We specialize in providing advanced care for the most vulnerable animals: seniors, rats with acute or chronic medical needs, and the behaviorally challenged. We aim to provide a safety net for these animals and give them a permanent home, where all their needs will be met. Our goal is to relieve some of the burden on the rescues in the PNW, allowing them to free up resources and focus on what they do best–matching pets with their perfect forever homes.
