Project POOCH, Inc.® has successfully paired youths incarcerated at the MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility in Woodburn, Oregon, with homeless shelter dogs since 1993. Youths (guided by professionals) learn to train the dogs, groom them, and find them new adoptive "forever homes." The dogs leave the program ready to be great pets, while their trainers re-enter the community with new job and personal skills and increased compassion and respect for all life. | |
Project POOCH, Inc. is recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c) (3) charitable organization, Tax ID # 93-1252054 – your donation is tax-deductible. | |

Project POOCH 2019 Contest Part 3: Smile! It's Almost Spring!
All donations will be used to help care for our shelter dogs and support the youth who prepare them for adoption. The proceeds will help pay for spay/neuter, healthy food, vaccinations, new toys, blankets, and rain gear (for both the pups and youth).
It's almost Spring, and that's a good reason to smile! Show us a picture of your dog smiling. Bonus points if they are smiling in or around a spring-themed background!

Buckley: A Story of Perseverance
Buckley arrived at a county animal shelter, malnourished and suffering from an upper respiratory tract infection, at only six-weeks-old. This sweet puppy weighed just over 6 pounds, and it was clear that he needed some immediate medical attention.
