PAWS Patrick Animal Welfare Society

PAWS is an all volunteer foster home rescue that majors in dogs and cats and minors is any species in need. We are here to help any and all animals that need us.We have just celebrated our 14th anniversary, and feel we have really made a difference in the amount of litters that are turned into our pound each year. We work hard to educate the community in the importance of neutering their pets. We have spay neuter programs and financial aid to s/n privately owned pets in our county. To date we have spent over $20,000 to spay or neuter privately owned pets in our community and have reduced the kill rate at our local pound.
