Rescue FAQs

Paws for Consideration is a non-profit animal advocacy organization. We are dedicated to finding compassionate responsible foster homes to assist in the rescue of animals that end up with a death sentence at the shelters in our community. To address the overpopulation crisis, we actively promote spay and neuter programs through educational information and paid advertisements. We are an all-volunteer organization and receive no local, state or federal funding. Donations from concerned citizens and fundraisers are our only source of income.
