About Us

PawSafe began in 1995 by a group of volunteers that came together with a vision of ending the needless euthanasia and suffering of companion animals through aggressive spay/neuter, rehoming and education.

Our Mission

PawSafe Animal Rescue exists to provide a better life for adoptable companion animals without homes and to assist in the effort to limit the overpopulation of these animals through a low kill methodology.

​​

The key principles that we follow to assist us in achieving our goals are:

  • Keep animals in their homes through quality veterinary care, training programs and community education.

  • Shelter and find homes for sick, injured, abused and abandoned adoptable domestic animals.

  • Reduce overpopulation of these animals through spay and neuter programs.

  • Prevent cruelty to these animals by supporting animal protection laws.

  • Foster compassion towards these animals through education.

  • Share our knowledge and experience with other animal welfare organizations.

Vision statement

PawSafe Animal Rescue tirelessly strives for and envisions the day where every adoptable companion animal has a loving, responsible home, where no animal will suffer from abuse, neglect or ignorance. We look forward to a society that no longer views adoptable companion animals as a disposable commodity and people responsibly spay or neuter their animals to put an end to the overpopulation that exists today.
