URGENT: Can you help find adoptable homes for dogs? After a nearly month-long surge in stray and surrendered dogs, Multnomah County Animal Services is urgently asking the community to help alleviate the overcrowding. Adopting a pet will open space and allow the shelter to continue providing the best care possible for all pets. “If you have been thinking about finding a family dog, we are here to help you meet them this weekend,’’ said Erin Grahek, Multnomah County Animal Services Director. “We have adoption counselors and volunteers ready to help and we have many wonderful animals waiting. This overcrowding is hardest on them.’’ The shelter is holding a Valentine Adoption Special all month, reducing adoption fees for dogs to $25 — plus licensing fees, and the long-term commitment and care needed for animal companionship.
