About Us

Home at Last is a private, non-profit humane society located in The Dalles, Oregon in the beautiful Columbia River Gorge. Started in 2000 by caring individuals who were concerned that too many dogs and cats were being euthanized in our community simply because they were homeless, Home at Last was born with nothing more than a firm belief that there was a better way to treat the needy pets in our community and a firm commitment to make these changes happen.

Fast forward to 2008 and you will find us in our current location (the building was previously the Wasco County Animal Shelter) caring for 1,000 animals a year.  We take in all stray animals brought to us by Wasco County Animal Control and accept as many owner released pets as possible, space permitting. All of our animals receive vaccinations, are spayed or neutered if needed, receive any needed medical treatment and are micro-chipped before they are adopted.
