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.

This is Frankie. We are told he is a 4 year old Bulldog. He has ICA papers. His owners need to surrender him as their life situation has changed and they are no longer able to keep him. We are told he lived with a small dog at one time. He is good with children. He is housebroken and crate trained. Cats are unknown. Frankie is very much a people dog and doesn’t realize his size as he’d happily be a lap dog. He wants to be where you are at all times. Currently Frankie is not neutered, which we will do and would need a vet check up before we could transfer him to an adoptive home. If you can help Frankie out of a situation that is not his fault, apply using the link in the comments below. Other pets in your home must be vaccinated, spay/neutered, and on regular prevention for flea/ticks/heartworms. Please share!! ... See MoreSee Less

Who is looking for a Valentine that will never disappoint. Scout is here to give you endless love and affection. A love like no other. Want loyalty? He’s got that, and then some! Scout is the complete package.His early life certainly hasn’t been all flowers and butterflies. Put outside at 2 weeks of age with his mom and siblings, it’s a true miracle they all survived the harsh winter weather. We are looking for a foster to adopt home that can help him forget the hell that was his previous life. Candidates must live in Central or SE Ohio so that he can continue his needed vetting at one of our partner clinics in Logan or Somerset, Oh. Once neutered, the adoption will be finalized and you can take to the clinic of your choice. Other pets in your home must be vaccinated, spay/neutered, and on preventatives for flea/ticks/heartworms. The link to apply is in the comments below. Please, please share for Scout! ... See MoreSee Less

Meet Hope, a 9-week-old female puppy who survived being left outside in the cold and snow at just 2 weeks old with her mom and siblings. Despite her rough start, she’s a happy, playful, typical puppy who’s learning — brave and plays well with her foster brother, loves to play, and is already doing well in her kennel, only fussing when she needs a potty break and keeping it clean so far. Hope needs a foster-to-adopt home in Central or SE Ohio to continue vet care at our partner clinics in Logan or Somerset. Other pets must be spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, and on prevention for fleas/ticks and heart worm. Apply using the link in the comments. Share away. ... See MoreSee Less
