Hannah, a blind stray Pug

Hannah, a blind stray Pug was brought to DoveLewis over the July 4th holiday weekend after she ran away from her North Portland home because she was so frightened by fireworks.  She was found by a good Samaritan and brought to DoveLewis.  DoveLewis scans all strays for microchips and posts photos of all strays on the lost and found page of our website, Thankfully, Hannah was successfully reunited with her family.

This stray female chicken was found in urban Portland in July.  She was incubating eggs and had been placed in a box which was then left in some bushes.  The good Samaritan who found her brought her to DoveLewis. 

 

Stray injured parakeet

This injured stray Parakeet who had a superficial abrasion - and another Parakeet -  were found by a Good Samaritan at the same location in July.  Both birds were brought to DoveLewis.

Summers are historically our busiest times in the hospital at DoveLewis.  In July, we had quite a few domestic avian strays brought to DoveLewis in addition to injured small wild birds and wildlife we see here every month.  All donations to DoveLewis' Stray Animal & Wildlife Progam make a big difference to the injured or ill animals who are brought to DoveLewis, enabling these animals to have a second chance.

  • 192 injured or ill stray animals, birds, and small wildlife received care at DoveLewis during the month of June 
  • 208 injured or ill stray animals, birds and small wildlife  received care in July which was the most seen in one month in DoveLewis' history
  • During our FY 2015 which ended June 30, 2015, a total of 1394 injured or ill strays were seen at DoveLewis:  20% were dogs, 35% were cats, and 45% were birds, small wildlife, stray pet rabbits, etc.
  • We were also able to treat and stabilize a very young fawn until it was transferred by Oregon Fish and Wildlife.

Thanks for your support of the DoveLewis Stray Animal and Wildlife Fund.
