We visit the local SPCA on an ongoing basis and select dogs that are scheduled for euthanasia, but would make a wonderful pet. All of our dogs are current on their shots and have been neutered.
To fill out an application for one of our dogs, please go to the Adoption Policies page.
Please remember that Paws for Life is located on private property, and is a completely volunteer-run facility, so appointments must be made in order to meet our dogs or see our facilities. If you just show up, you will be asked to make an appointment.
