We are based in Lavon, Tx and adopt our dogs out to all locations to all cities in North Texas area provided that the adopters are willing to come to our boarding facility to meet the dogs they are interested in. We are an all breed rescue specializing in large breed dogs. All of our dogs are vaccinated and kept current on flea and tick and heart worm preventative. All of our adoptable dogs are spay or neutered.

About Hope for Paws
Hope for Paws was founded on the belief that there are no bad dog breeds only people that exploit the natural characteristics of a breed for selfish and often cruel purposes. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs from harmful and neglectful situations regardless of breed and to educate the community regarding specific breeds. We hope to decrease the number of homeless dogs in our community through education about the benefits of spaying and neutering pets.
What We Do
We pull animals from various local shelters when they have not been claimed by owners or adopted from the shelter. We also take in stray dogs from the streets or from owners that can no longer care for their pet.
We house these dogs in a kennel situation and look for volunteers to foster these dogs. We provide training for the dogs to help them more easily make the transition into a loving home.
We visit local schools to educate children about the plight of homeless dogs and invite them out to the kennel to help dispel any breed specific prejudice. We teach about the need for keeping their dogs vaccinated and keeping them on preventative programs for heartworm and flee and tic preventative.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
