Our experience in finding a rescue through PAWS was excellent from beginning to end. The PAWS ladies are organized and professional and will make sure there is a fit between rescue and the adopting family. Staffed by a group of amazing, dedicated and passionate individuals who love dogs and dog lovers.

Wonderful rescue that truly rescues some of the world's most vulnerable dogs, nurtures them in foster homes, and then finds them amazing forever families. I can't speak highly enough of this organization!
