Rescue FAQs

Piedmont Pound Paws (PPP) began as a group of volunteers working together to find loving/responsible adopters or licensed rescues for animals that were unfortunate enough to find themselves in the city of Piedmont, MO kill pound. Over time, homeless pets in extended areas, often including the MO counties of Wayne, Reynolds, Iron, Butler, Carter, & Bollinger, were also helped. Today, we continue focused on the Piedmont area while educating the community and helping to find resources for low income families to responsibly care for their pets.
We typically attend adoption events at the PetCo in Farmington, MO, even though we are located in Wayne County, MO where there is an over abundance of homeless pets. We help the lower income families and individuals with their pets by finding resources that will help them be responsible pet owners. We also work with rescues in the St. Louis metro area and Illinois, often extending to other states, if needed.
