About this shelter

PAWS (Pound Animals Worth Saving) Fur The Cause - Animal Rescue in Mesa, AZ

PAWS (Pound Animals Worth Saving) Fur The Cause - Animal Rescue is located in Mesa, Arizona, about 4 miles northeast of the city, and is open daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Sunday. This 501(c)(3) rescue organization is dedicated to rescuing and adopting out dogs from Arizona government shelters, the streets, and owner surrenders, with a mission to ensure the optimal health and well-being of every dog in its care. PAWS operates entirely on a foster-based model rather than relying on shelters or boarding facilities, so all dogs live in loving homes until they're adopted, and it hosts adoption events throughout the Phoenix area at locations like Petco, community churches, and Kiwanis Park. The organization pays no salaries, meaning 100% of every donation goes directly toward food and medical care for its rescue dogs.

Before you go

Adopting from this shelter

Adoption process

Prospective adopters complete a PreQualification Form online, which the PAWS team reviews to determine if the family is a good fit; adopters can also meet adoptable dogs in person at adoption events. All adopted dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated before going home.
