About Paws of War

Our mission is to alleviate the suffering of veterans, first responders, and their families, particularly those battling invisible wounds like Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), by providing them with loyal service dogs that become not just companions but also catalysts for healing.

Simultaneously, we rescue and rehabilitate dogs and cats in dire straits, often plucking them from the brink of despair and giving them a new chance at life.  Our reach extends into war-torn regions, reuniting military personnel with the animals they formed bonds with during service.

Services and Programs
