View Original Description
The Pacific Animal Welfare Society (“PAWS”) was founded in 2003 by Dorothy “Louise” Shirey. It is dedicated to providing care for and rehoming the abandoned and displaced animals of Coronado.
Provide adoption services to the animals in the Coronado Animal Care Facility.
Provide educational services to the community regarding animal welfare, care and adoption.
Encourage and facilitate the spaying and neutering of all family pets.
The vision of PAWS of Coronado is “a world where every lost, stray and abandoned animal is able to find its forever home.”
Volunteers are the driving force behind the organization. Those interested in volunteering should attend a brief introductory session at the Coronado Animal Care Facility where applications can be completed and information about current volunteer opportunities will be shared. Volunteer opportunities include walking dogs and fostering pets.
PAWS of Coronado is closed daily from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM for a designated Quiet Hour. This time allows our dogs to rest and decompress in a calmer, low-stimulation environment, which is especially important for reducing stress in the shelter.
