LOVEPAWS was originally founded as a shelter intake prevention program in 2019 with a mission of keeping pets in homes and out of our local shelters through community outreach. At the core of our community outreach services is our pet pantry which feeds over 500 owned pets and community cats every month.
Our scope and mission quickly expanded to include pulling dogs and cats from local shelters, with a focus on the pit bull type dogs of Prince George’s County (PG pitties). This has allowed our organization to rescue and advocate for the most at-risk animals, the true underdogs (and undercats!) in our community.
LOVEPAWS is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (EIN: 83-3122611). We are an exclusively 100% unpaid volunteer-based, foster-based rescue with our foster network spanning MD, DC, and VA. Every dollar we raise goes directly towards the care of our animals and helps us keep saving lives!
