Displaced Pets Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation dedicated to rescuing Pomeranians and other petite breeds located in NW Oregon and Washington. Our mission is to help Little Dogs, that are under 10 pounds, whether they come from the shelter or from an owner surrender. Loss of income, home, illness, relocation, divorce, re-zoning are all things that happen in people's lives and we provide a safety net to keep these little guys from being turned into a shelter. We work to find these dogs loving new homes, and to provide interim socialization, training and Vet care that they need.
We work to educate current owners and to decide the best solution for their situation. Sometimes a frustrating situation can be solved with some caring training and assistance. Where necessary we will take in rescue dogs that will be placed in loving pet homes. Our resources are limited as we are completely self sustained, so the numbers of rescues we can take each year is limited.
Dogs come to us from a variety of sources, including local shelter and individuals. We only accept dogs which we believe have the potential, after living in our care, and working with us for some time, to be successfully placed in a new home. We work with each animal to develop the confidence it will need to fit into a new relationship. We work with the dog and new owner to ensure that the new relationship is successful.
Prospective adoptive parents are interviewed, and references are checked to ensure that we have choose the best new owner possible. The potential "adoptee" must meet their new family to ensure that they are adequately acquainted in my environment before going to a new home. All of our rescues are spayed or neutered and current on their vaccines.
The pricing you will find on these rescues may very depending on the dogs age, health, and the Vet care involved. Our minimum placement fee is $200, for an advanced senior with health concerns. Most will place at $400. Puppies under one year our donation is $500, Many times the placement fee for a dog does not cover their vet bills, let alone food, electricity, water, bedding, cleaning products and all of the other things that these kids need. We are a young organization with a limited donor base and no government funding, we rely on adoption fees and donations to support our mission. The largest consideration is an attempt to recover the funds spent so as to pass them on to the next needy fur-baby.
Additional donations are greatly appreciated.

Get your dog the safe enrichment they need by renting a Sniffspot
David Adams is a man of many passions, but his love for dogs stands above all. He is not only a dog lover, but also the founder of an innovative platform called Sniffspot. This unique platform connects dog owners with private property owners who are willing to rent out their space for off-leash playtime. While the idea of Sniffspot was initially conceived by his wife, Rebecca, David has been the driving force behind its remarkable success, tirelessly overseeing its growth and development.
David's dedication to providing safe and enjoyable spaces for dogs to play, explore, and socialize is evident in his unwavering commitment to Sniffspot. He strongly believes that dogs need ample space and opportunities to stretch their legs and have fun. As a result, he has worked tirelessly to build a network of private property owners across the country who share his vision and are willing to offer their space for the benefit of dogs and their owners.
Despite his busy schedule, David always finds time to indulge in his passion for the great outdoors. He loves nothing more than exploring new hiking trails and embarking on thrilling outdoor adventures. Whenever he is not working on Sniffspot, he can often be found hiking or visiting multi-acre fenced sniffspots with his two beloved dogs, Soba and Toshii. He is an avid outdoorsman who enjoys the fresh air, breathtaking scenery, and the sense of freedom that comes with being in nature.
David is based in Salem, MA.
