7 shelters in and around Portland where you can adopt a pet
Few people on earth have the same capacity as pets to love so openly and fully. There’s nothing quite like coming home after a long day and having your pet greet you like you’re the best human being to have ever existed.
Whether you’re having a bad day, a good day, or just a ‘meh’ day, your pet accepts you just as you are, flaws and all.
This holiday season, give the gift of a happy home to our furry friends out there who are waiting to find a forever home so they can spoil you with their love, affection and trust.
Here are seven adoption spots and animal shelters in and around Portland where you can adopt a cute animal buddy.
