Homes are Happier with a Rescue
Our Story
Our Mission
​Woods Creek Rescue exists to provide a safe and better life for animals in need, while helping them along their journey to find their furrever home. We are their voice.
Founded officially in 2015, WCR has grown from a small rescue into an agency typically housing up to 20 dogs and puppies at any one time. Run entirely by a small team of dedicated volunteers, WCR pulls dogs and puppies from all over the west coast. We are located near Silverton, Oregon
We provide transportation, care, training services, and veterinary care to all of our animals. Our dedication to finding wonderful, loving permanent homes for all dogs is what makes our hearts sing!
We are always on the lookout for folks that love dogs and welcome any time, resources or set of hands to help us care for all of the dogs!
Meet our featured dog of the week, Silah !
I’m a sweet, medium sized, five year old pitty-mix who was mistreated...it’s obvious when I’m around people. I’m not aggressive and it is very easy to read my body language. I can't tell you exactly what happened to me with small children but when I am around them, my body gets stiff and that let's you know it is not a situation for me. I’m fine with teenagers and adults.
I know my sit, down and roll. Apparently my previous person taught me all these things, just not how to be social with other dogs or cats.
My rescue mom says I coexist with other dogs next to me in crates. I’m not reactive, walk past them with confidence and know if I approach them she will correct me because she knows me best...after all she is my rescue mom, and she would love for me to find a forever home.
If you chose me I would be your couch potato, snuggle up for a night of TV and go for walks.
Could you be the family that would love me for who I am? I know there must be someone out there who could love me.
Much love, Silah
