My story

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

Meet Tyson! Perhaps the only thing cuter than Tyson's smile is his one floppy ear. Tyson is a 6-year-old mixed breed guy who is incredibly friendly and quick to bond to his people. When he wants attention, Tyson will either lean his backside into you or wind around your legs like a cat - it's pretty impossible to resist giving scratches when they're requested like that! Tyson gets along well with dogs - he's eager to play with the more easygoing pups, but can be standoffish or even a little growly if a dog comes on too strong. He is house trained and while he doesn't love being in a crate (he'll whine initially), he eventually settles down. Tyson is a curious and playful guy around the house and outside, he loves to play in the backyard and go for walks around the neighborhood. He's OK on a leash, but could use continued training to refine his skills. Overall, Tyson is a loving and loyal pup who likes to spend as much time with his people as possible. If Tyson sounds like the guy for you, please complete an application at http://caws.org/adoption-application. Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. His adoption fee is $200.

Additional adoption info

Since we make a lifetime commitment to any animal that comes into our program, we only adopt out animals to people in our area..

If you are interested in adopting a CAWS cat or dog, please fill out the online application at http://www.caws.org/application/, email adopt@caws.org or call 328-4731. For the most timely response applying online is recommended.

We respond as quickly as possible but as we are a volunteer based organization and do not have full time staff, we respond as quickly as possible.

Go meet their pets

CAWS does not have a conventional shelter facility - all CAWS animals waiting for adoption are in foster homes. The number of animals we can help find new homes for is closely linked to how many CAWS foster homes are available. For additional information regarding how you, too, can become a foster, please see our fostering page located on our web site!

CAWS volunteers bring cats and dogs to the PetSmart near 2100 South and 300 West in South Salt Lake on the third and fourth weekends of each month

We are also at the Sugarhouse PETCO (1165 Wilmington Ave) the first Saturday of each month.
