When you bring a furry friend into your home, you’re making a lifetime commitment to care for and love that pet. It means being financially responsible and having a stable lifestyle.  
Volunteers Who Match Pets with Loving Homes

Located in Perry County, OH,  PAWS – Perry Animal Welfare Society is a 501(c)3 that was established in 2018. Our mission is to re-home dogs and cats with loving and committed families.

We do not own or operate a shelter. We have an incredible team of volunteers and foster families who temporarily care for the pets we rescue.

We thoroughly review applications from those who apply to foster or adopt our dogs or cats. We do our best to ensure that the family or individual is committed to the pet’s care for its entire life.

We strive to make sure the pet is the best fit for the family or individual, and likewise.

Wow… did people show up tonight! Our Paint for PAWS event was an incredible success, and we are so grateful for every single person who came out to support our rescue. It was truly a night full of laughter, creativity, and community.A huge thank-you to the Corning Civic Center for generously allowing us to use their facility. To our amazing painting instructor, Melissa, for guiding everyone, keeping the energy fun, and helping even the “non-painters” create something they were proud of. We couldn’t have done it without you! And another big thank you to Pizza Place for donating the delicious pizza! Your kindness helped make the night even more special.To everyone who painted, laughed, supported, and showed love for our animals… thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Nights like this remind us how incredible our community truly is. We appreciate you all! ... See MoreSee Less

Rudy, the most handsome hound received some good news last week. He saw his surgeon and he’s very excited and pleased with his progress. His muscle strength and tone is improving. His news was so good that he no longer has restrictions! Rudy will need someone committed to regular walks. Keeping that hip mobile and moving is important. Rudy has always had a foster that was home with him. That would be his dream home to have a retired person or a work from home situation. Rudy is very people oriented and prefers to be where you are. He’s a sofa snuggler, and would love someone that shares their bed with him. Rudy is crate trained but he doesn’t love it. He’s also still very young at only 1 year old. He still exhibits some puppy behavior so trusting him uncrated while gone would not be wise at this point. Rudy has received basic obedience training and now that he’s cleared by the Dr., he can return to his training. We’ll preview some of his skills on our next post. Rudy is good with dogs and cats , but no chickens. It is recommended that he is with children 8 and up. He’s great with kids but he is a big goofy pup still. Other pets in your home must be spayed/neutered, current on vaccines, and on regular preventatives for flea/tick/heartworm. To apply, the link is in the comments below! Let’s show this boy some love and share! ... See MoreSee Less
