How PAWS Began

Once upon a time, in 2003, five women in St. George got the idea to rescue and re-home cats and dogs that were scheduled to be euthanized, due to lack of space in shelters…and PAWS (Providing Animals with Support) was born!   PAWS is now a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill animal rescue organization that relies solely on donations and volunteers.  Since 2003, we’ve rescued over 17,000 cats and dogs…655 in 2020 alone!
