The Asher House is a registered non-profit sanctuary in Salem, Oregon. We rescue animals that have been discarded or unwanted, providing them with a life of comfort, love and adventure.
For over two years, our Founder, Lee Asher, traveled across 49 states to promote dog adoption and spotlight various shelters and rescues. We have grown so much in the last few years. Click above to get the full story!

We take in dogs based upon our capacity at any given time, and whether the dog would do well in a free-roaming environment. The following website is a wonderful resource to find other organizations that may be able to help:
https://www.petfinder.com/animal-shelters-and-rescues/search/
This listing is rather comprehensive, and includes great foster-based rescue organizations, many of which offer transportation to pick up your pet if they are not in your immediate area.
As an alternative to surrendering to a rescue, one can use the "home to home" option where you accept applications directly from that site. If you do this, then you are the one screening applicants to find the perfect home. This is safer than FB and Craigslist, where this is a risk of dog fighting rings.

We currently are not set up for visitors or volunteers. As we expand parts of the Salem property, our vision is to have monthly tours for visitors. We hope to offer volunteer opportunities at our newest location in Lebanon, Oregon once it is up and running. We don’t have an exact timeline, but we will be sharing more as this project develops.
The best way to help is to donate or make a purchase to our official merch store.

Animal rescue groups or organizations are dedicated to pet adoptions. These groups take abandoned, abused, or stray animals and attempt to find suitable homes for them.
Animal sanctuaries provide a permanent home for animals, allowing them to live out their lives in a safe and peaceful environment.
The Asher House incorporates both of these business models into our mission. We rescue and rehabilitate animals that have been abused or discarded, and provide them with a safe place to live. We do keep some of the animals on the property to live out their lives, but we adopt out as many as we can that would do great in a loving home.
