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, Blaze !

Blaze is from a litter of seven puppies.

Just look at that face. He is as sweet as he looks!

His breed is a Shollie (Shepherd/Collie mix) and he is about four months old.

Blaze is very smart and a quick learner. He is such a quick learner that he is fully house and crate trained!

Blaze does great with other dogs and loves to run and play in the yard with his doggy friends here at the rescue.

He is very loving, has excellent manners and is learning new skills while walking on a leash

Blaze is current on vaccinations. Adoption fee is $400.
