LOST and FOUND pets

PAWS seeks to re-connect all lost pets with their respective owners if possible. If your pet is lost and is within our facility, know they are safe in our care. Please view below for further information on reclaiming.

 

*If your pet has a tag and/or microchip and the information is up to date, we will contact you!

WE ARE NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM A PET IS HERE OVER THE PHONE. 

Our website contains up-to-date information for all pets at our facility. If you believe your pet is at PAWS, you may visit our shelter during our standard hours of operation to confirm identification and bring them home!

To reclaim your pet, please bring proof of ownership such as a rabies certificate, medical records or family pictures including the pet.

 

*We highly recommend microchipping your pet. Collars with tags can slip or break off. PAWS offers low-cost clinics which include microchip services for your pet. Click here for the next upcoming clinic date.
