About Paws & Hearts

Dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming dogs in need since 2010

Our Mission

At Paws & Hearts Animal Shelter, we believe every dog deserves a loving home. Our mission is to rescue abandoned, abused, and neglected dogs, provide them with medical care and rehabilitation, and find them forever families.

We work tirelessly to reduce pet overpopulation through spay and neuter programs, and we educate the community about responsible pet ownership.

Since our founding in 2010, we have successfully placed over 3,500 dogs in loving homes and continue to make a difference in our community every day.
