December 2025: Pacific Northwest Cattle Dog Rescue is currently at capacity. We are not accepting new intakes at this time. Thank you for understanding. PNWCDR is a foster-based, donor-funded and volunteer-powered 501(c)(3) non-profit rescue organization. (EIN 82-5180852) Grant referrals can be sent to [email protected]

  • PNWCDR is a foster-based rescue. We do not have a brick & mortar facility or sanctuary. We are able to take dogs when we have a suitable foster home available.
  • Our network of volunteers and foster homes is in Washington & Oregon. If you’re outside the Pacific Northwest, please contact a rescue group in your area.
  • Intake evaluations are held in certain areas of the PNW. If you’re unable to travel with your dog for an intake eval, you can post a courtesy listing on our page.
  • For guidance with behavior and training, please contact a professional trainer and/or behavioral veterinarian.
  • We are a 100% volunteer-powered and foster-based rescue. We are funded by donations.

Please note: an evaluation is not a guarantee of intake
