My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi everyone my name is Tinker. I am a 5 year old Shiz-Tzu,
I weigh 13 pounds. Right now I'm staying with a Foster family
that has 2 dogs and 2 cats and we all get along together well. I am a lover and like to lap sit and snugle up giving as much loving
as I get. I'm looking forward to a forever home with a great
family. I am house broke, not perfect, but if for some reason
if needed I also will use a "Puppy Pad". I do like to run when I am
out side so a fence would be great but my foster family will tell
how well I walk on a lead as well. So if you are looking for
a new pet to add to your family, please consider me.

If you are interested in Tinker, please visit www.pawscare.org, and click on the online application. We require the application to be filled out and approved prior to meeting him as all of our animals are in private foster homes. Please fill out all information as we cannot process incomplete applications. A phone number for your veterinarian is a must. We CANNOT process your application without a vet phone number.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

All of our animals are located in foster homes. Because of this, they learn potty-training, crate training and are comfortable in a home environment.

We are more of a "boutique rescue" as we do not have a shelter and only use private foster homes. For this reason, we do not have viewing hours. An application must be approved before meeting each animal, unless we have a scheduled mobile adoption.

More about this rescue

PAWS CARE is a volunteer group established in 2008 by individuals dedicated to being the voice for those who have none, to provide sanctuary for animals who have been abused, abandoned, or at lost and in need of shelter. It is our mission to try to find responsible, loving homes for all who come our way, to reunite the "lost" with their family and encourage residents of Montgomery County to embrace the humane treatment of homeless domesticated animals.

Our Basic Objectives:

Prevent cruelty to animals
Provide forever homes for animals through adoption
Promote compassion for pets through education
Provide shelter and care for homeless animals
Reduce overpopulation by supporting spay and neuter programs
Assist individuals with emergency pet shelter & food during troubled times
Relieve the suffering of all animals
