Best Friends of Baker, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to animal welfare in Baker County, Oregon.
“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.”
-Ghandi
Our Beginning
Best Friends of Baker, Inc. was founded in 1988 after three friends rescued a pregnant, neglected mutt in rural eastern Oregon. After receiving some much needed care, “Lucky” was placed in a loving forever home and her success story provided the inspiration for the establishment of a rescue with 501(c)3 status.
“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.”
— ANATOLE FRANCE
