DJ's Paw Rescue

DJ's Paw Rescue We speak for those who have no voice. I retired in 2015 (too young for benefits) and began doing rescue full time! I did wildlife rescue for about 6 years.

We were a privately funded animal rescue until August of 2018, we applied & recieved our 501C3 non profit organization,that helps abandoned, owner surrendered, and neglected animals. Hello everyone,,, I am the founder of DJ's Paw Rescue, I'd like to tell you about myself and my mission.I have done animal rescue for over 30 years on and off till 22 years ago when I really got into it as my true

passion. I am complicating securing my 501C3 non-profit rescue organization. I then started with domestic animals as well. This became my true passion. I began with motherless kittens, I bottle fed and raised many litters over the years and found them forever homes. I began getting so many calls and concerns about abused, neglected, abandoned, owner surrender dogs. I set my focus completely on the dogs, and I am blessed to have two very good friends that help me with the cats & kittens. Their tireless & dedicated efforts should never ever go unnoticed!! Every animal that we rescue is completely vetted, all age appropriate vaccinations as well as spayed or neutered before ever being adopted. I will not let any animal leave my rescue until this is done. We then do an extensive application, vet references as well as meet and greets and home visits to find the perfect fit for each and every fur child as well as a perfect fit for every family! We also include a contract that if the animal doesn't work out for any reason, no matter how long it's been adopted that it is to be returned to me. The contract also states me being able to do follow up visits announced or unannounced for welfare checks on adopted animals. I do not take this rescue lightly. It is about each and every animal we save! Always and forever! As of now, we survive & help these animals solely on donations and my husbands' generosity. It gets beyond expensive and the huge numbers of animals that need rescued is unbelievable. These are babies that do not make it to the Dog Warden or Humane Society. As we build this rescue page site, we will be adding many of our animal stories, pictures and updates, as well as adding animals we have up for adoptions. Please continue to check back as my page grows!!! Feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns, comments or interest on our rescue fur children! Dawn Johnson

This was Buddy Love,,, I brought him home to get him well enough for his surgery,,, he only weighed 22 pounds,, we took him to Humble Creatures to have his ears taken care of,, it was one of the worst cases they ever seen,,, they gave him Claro otic solution, and we weighed him,, he wasn't making any progress so we brought him home and fed him more food! After 3 weeks, we decided to do a complete blood panel,, and we were devastating to find out he was in complete kidney failure,, there was nothing we could do for him,,, between his ears, cherry eye, needed nuetered, to find out he was suffering more each day,, we had to end his suffering and let him go on to the Rainbow Bridge,, Buddy love,, we're so sorry we got to him to late,, his family didn't do what was right by him for along time and I'm so sorry. We loved you until the end and you knew you were loved,
