Mission Statement

South Paw Animal Rescue and Sanctuary is a small animal rescue founded in 2007. We are an all volunteer organization dedicated to rescuing puppy mill, abandoned, and unwanted small animals. Our volunteers are located throughout the United States and Canada. We are funded soley by charitable donations with 100% going directly to the care and medical needs of the animals we rescue. We are a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Corporation. Our mission is to work together as a group, and in conjunction with other animal rescue groups, to rehabilitate, medically treat, spay/neuter, shelter, and place each animal we rescue into loving, quality forever homes. We will work to educate the public about the importance of spay/neuter and about proper and humane animal care and breeding. Every once in a while an animal we rescue is not adoptable due to behavioral or aggression issues. We give those animals sanctuary for the rest of their lives. We do not euthanize any animal unless recommended by a licensed veterinarian due to an animals incurable medical condition causing the animal unrelievable pain, suffering, and no quality of life.

This is a great group doing so very much for animals in need. They are easy to work with and very dedicated to their cause. I will continue to volunteer with them. It's very rewarding and I feel like I am doing so much to help. Thank you for letting me join your cause!

They never contacted me to tell me yes or no on volunteering. I never heard anything from them whatsoever.

Animal cruelty goes right along with child abuse, spouse abuse, or live in partner abuse. These animals are deserving of the best care just like a child or elderly, even homeless or unable to meet their needs on their own. I have two small dogs. One was abandoned at a Sonic resteraunt and the other belong to my mother-in-law who passed away three years ago and her mother wanted to get her euthanized and I said no. She is an older dog but still has a lot of spunk and energy. We also have two cats. One is fixing to have kittens. They will not be given away to just anyone. I will inspect where they will be living and checking up on the growth and health of each kitten. Animal Cruelty is unexceptable.

As a life-long animal lover and guardian, I was thrilled to find this opportunity. I received no response after contacting South Paw via e-mail on August 18. I was quite disappointed.
