Mission Statement
We are advocates for the pets of homeless Utahans. The shelters cannot accept people with pets, so these humans sacrifice the warmth and comfort of a bed and sleep in a tent, car, under freeways, etc. in order to keep their animal companions. A lot of the animals are service animals for veterans that have served in the Armed forces for our country.
Description
For the Love of Paws hands out donations to the homeless for their animal companions. We fit these animals for the extreme cold weather in Utah by bundling them with a warm sweater, then covering with a waterproof parka. When needed, they get a collar and leash as well as a collapsible water bowl, toys, and other items to make the dogs comfortable. Each week, they are replenished with a supply of food and treats.
