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.

Pets in Need

This little girl is in need of a home. 10 weeks old and showed up as a stray. She luckily picked the right home to go for help. She has been feline tested and received her first set of vaccines. If you can give this girl her happily ever after please send us a message! ... See MoreSee Less

Samson is 10 weeks old. He and his siblings had the good fortune to wander on the property of someone with a good heart. This little boy is very friendly, social and playful. He is being fostered with cats no issues. He keeps a clean crate overnight and has started potty training. We are looking for a foster to adopt home in Central or SE Ohio that can finish the vetting we’ve started at Mastersons in Somerset, Ohio. We don’t know for sure what his breed is since he was a stray but based on appearances a bully breed of some sort is part of his DNA. If you are the home for Samson apply using the link in the comments. Adoption fee is $250. If there are other pets in your home they must be spay/neutered, current on vaccines and use regular flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Please share for Samson, let’s give him the home he desperately deserves. ... See MoreSee Less

Thank you to our good friends at the Perry County Dog Shelter and adoption center who happen to know we have a sweet spot for Labs. They took excellent care of this pretty boy during his stray hold. He wasn’t found in the best of shape. Archie, as his new foster named him, got his freedom ride today. Stay tuned, as we watch this pup blossom in their care. ... See MoreSee Less
