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.

Moose (border collie mix) and Kojak (Sheba Inu mix) foster reports they are doing amazing - keeping a clean crate, working hard on potty training, and very good with young kids. Sweet, playful, and eager to please. Both are ready for their forever home. At just 4 months old, they were dumped… but that doesn’t define them. They are ready for a foster-to-adopt home in Central or SE Ohio.To be qualify as a foster to adopt home you must live in Central or SE Ohio to utilize one of our two veterinary clinics while they complete their veterinary care. Clinics are located in Somerset and Logan, Oh. Other dogs in your home need to be current on vaccinations, on regular prevention for fleas ticks/Heartworms, and spayed/ neutered. This is non-negotiable.. The link to apply is in the comments below. Please Share - Their family might be on your friends list. ... See MoreSee Less

Tonight we took in Baby. He was an owner surrender. An important reminder if you have a senior dog, they may not appreciate the energy a puppy brings to your home. Baby just turned a year old. He needs neutered and his vaccinations updated. We do believe that Baby is in a foster home that will ultimately adopt him. We’ll keep you posted. ... See MoreSee Less

PENDING ADOPTION!We really thought she’d be the first to go with her longer scruffy hair. 11 week old Hope is starting to lose hope that there is a home out there for her. She keeps a clean crate overnight, is great with her much bigger foster brother, is starting to get the hang of potty training. She’s a real gem of a pup but she’s stirred no interest in the hearts of our followers. Hope needs a foster to adopt home in Central or SE Ohio so she can continue her veterinary care at one of our two clinics in Logan or Somerset, Oh. Other pets in your home must be current on vaccines, on regular preventatives for fleas, ticks, and heartworm. Spay/neutered is also a must. To apply, click the link in the comments below. Let’s give Hope some hope for her own home and share! ... See MoreSee Less
