As of 2022, Lee Asher and Luke Barton are still a couple. They are companions who are touring the world in an RV and are related by heart but not by blood. They are not brothers.
Although Lee and Luke are not blood relatives or share a family, they are similar in that they both have a huge heart and a desire to encourage more people to adopt stray animals.
To get where he is now, Asher quit his 9 to 5 corporate job. The creator of the Asher house was also greeted by Barton, who worked behind the camera and was constantly recording. The photographer admitted that he first got to know the animal rescuer while taking pictures of his pets. Because he was a traveler with an RV, both clicked and materialized in the form of rescuing shelter dogs, and the rest is history.
Estacada, Oregon’s The Asher House is a legally recognized non-profit sanctuary. They save the dogs, giving them a loving home and comfortable life.
Our founder, Lee Asher, spent more than two years traveling to all 49 states to encourage dog adoption and to spotlight different shelters and rescues.
After the loss of beloved Pitbull Stella, Lee was resolved to fulfill his lifetime ambition of creating a refuge where animals could feel valued, safe, and free. In late 2020, Asher stumbled onto a sizable piece of land that was the perfect place for his vision to come true.
