Boonville MO dog taken.

Attention!!! Jane was outside of our maintenance building frolicking today. An older, small white SUV pulled up with a younger blond woman driving. She got out and got a hold of Jane and left the scene. Jane is chipped and thousands will be on the lookout including Boonville PD. Please bring her back safely.

A Good Samaritan brought this mama in from the cold and she delivered 10 puppies (5 males and 5 females). If you can foster or sponsor these pups, please call PAWS at 660-248-2739. The person who took the mama in cannot keep them after Jan 25th. The pups were born on Dec. 18th.

Our Story

PAWS provides medical care to dogs in the City Dog Pound and fosters unclaimed pound dogs that are adoptable, providing them with medical care, vet services, and a safe haven until a good home is found. At times, PAWS must donate funds and resources to other non-profit rescue groups in order to properly foster and care for adoptable animals. We provide transportation for owned pets, not just from the City of Fayette, but also for animals from Boonville, New Franklin, Armstrong, Glasgow and other communities that reach out to us for help with low cost vet services. When possible we assist other area city animal shelters in finding homes for adoptable animals. In conjunction with the Feral Cat Ordinance, PAWS not only traps and transports stray and feral cats for spay, neuter, and vaccination, but we absorb the costs for these services. PAWS offers educational programs for schools, groups, and other organizations. We participate in local events in order to share our message of responsible pet ownership. We have a phone "Hot Line" and can help people with specific animal care issues, network to help find a lost dog or reunite a found dog with it's owner, and offer a number of other resources to make the animal population in our area safe, healthy, and properly cared for.
