Our Story
About California Paws Rescue
As a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization, California Paws Rescue is a volunteer driven, donation supported dog rescue. Our success is dependent upon loyal friends and donors who lend their names and make donations to support our mission. The money we raise each year will go towards the rescue, medical expenses, care and housing of abandoned dogs waiting for a new forever family to adopt them.
Our Dogs
At any one time, we will have the capacity to house 10-12 dogs. Many of these dogs have been rescued from the euthanasia list of extremely overburdened Animal Control Services. Every dog will reside at CPR until adopted into a loving, permanent home. Vital socialization opportunities will be provided to all dogs, to get them ready for their new home.
CPR will ensure that every dog rescued will receive immediate, quality medical care. The moment they reach our doors, each dog will be given a complete physical examination in our clinic. Each dog will be sprayed / neutered, given all necessary vaccinations and will receive any additional care needed to place them on their road to health and happiness.
CPR will give additional attention to the rescue of a dog with special needs, i.e. dogs that are blind, have an amputated limb, diabetic, etc. Those of us who live with a special needs dog know what a wonderful companion they can be. Unfortunately, these special dogs are often abandoned or surrendered, then euthanized because of the shortage of space and/or budgets. Donations to the California Paws Rescue will enable us to rescue a special needs dog, provide proper medical care and house them until a special home is found. If a qualified home is not found, we will give them a place to live out their lives with dignity and love.
California Paws Rescue is located within Barkingham Pet Hotel California in Palm Desert, CA.
