Fido’s Taphouse bar offers its customers numerous delicious meals and drinks, but it also offers one more thing – to spend time with rescue puppies.
The owner of the bar is Scott Porter. He opened the amazing bar for a life-changing reason – to help homeless dogs, making it every dog lover’s dream pub.
Fido’s and Oregon Friends Of Shelter Animals (OFOSA) joint their forces together for one simple goal: to save as many homeless animals as they can, nurture them to health, and find them forever homes.

Thre are usually 4-8 dogs from the rescue group. Guests who visit the bar can spend time with the dogs and even play with them in the so-called day room, which leads to successful adoptions.
Playing with the furry friends in the day room also helps the bar to support the rescue group, charities, and covering costs. A 30-minute play session with the dogs costs $4 that will go straight to charity.
However, those who want to adopt, will be required to pass a short waiting period. The main reason for this is to make sure the potential adopters are able to adapt and will not change their minds in the near future.
Potential adoptive parents are also asked to bring over their families in order to make sure that everyone is happy with the adoption, including the dog.
Thanks to this initiative, more than 70 pups found forever homes. Also, people love to keep up with the heartwarming initiative on social media.
The bar has accounts on Instagram and Facebook where they share cute pictures and foster stories and atmosphere photos that can also attract more customers for the right reasons.
Fido’s donates to charity and even hosts charity events for free in order to raise awareness about homeless dogs. People enjoy eating at this particular restaurant because they know it contributes to an amazing initiative. We need more bars to follow the example by this bar which takes in rescue dogs and finds them forever homes. Share this story and some bar owner maybe follows this example and make world a better place for everyone.
