Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society

PAWS is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to saving Philadelphia’s homeless, abandoned, and unwanted animals. PAWS is Philadelphia's largest no-kill shelter and is working to make Philadelphia a city in which every healthy and treatable pet is guaranteed a home. Through its adoption locations, special events, and foster care network, PAWS finds loving homes for thousands of animals each year.In March 2010, PAWS opened a low-cost, high-volume spay/neuter and wellness clinic serving pet owners and rescues in an effort to keep pets healthy and reduce the homeless pet population. Located in the Grays Ferry section of the city, the Clinic serves pet owners who have difficulty affording or do not have access to basic veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, treatments for upper respiratory infections/parasites/fleas, etc.) and rescue organizations that need affordable spay/neuter surgery and basic veterinary care to carry out their lifesaving work. Support for PAWS funds lifesaving initiatives including adoption and foster care programs, spay/neuter surgeries, low-cost vaccinations, and other efforts, all of which help reduce and will ultimately eliminate the unnecessary killing of Philadelphia's animals. Donations to PAWS are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.

Meet Humble

Meet Humble! This lively cutie who is on the search for a forever home that understands his unique needs. While Humble has a very sweet and silly side, he can also be unpredictable with handling, and needs someone patient who can read his body language well— and continue to work on building on positive interactions. Humble would also benefit greatly from having appropriate outlets to channel his energy, like plenty of play time, and training to work toward being his most confident self —and just watch him show off his dance moves here! Humble is looking for a dog-experienced and adult-only home, and since he  can also be an opinionated guy at times who barks in response to neighbor noise, he likely wouldn’t be a great fit for an apartment or a home with sound-sensitive neighbors while he gets more comfortable with spending time on his own. We know this sounds like a lot, but Humble truly has a soft, snuggly heart and a playful spirit that rounds out his personality—and we can't wait to watch him thrive in the right environment! If you’re up for giving Humble the safe and understanding forever home that he needs, please submit your adoption application and email us at [email protected] to chat more about this dancing king. Age: ~3 years old How I came to PAWS: Found Stray Animal ID#: A-179233 Weight: 10 lbs Mixed breed (It’s impossible to identify breed mix by sight alone, so for most dogs, their mix is only a guess. We get to know each dog as an individual and strive to make matches based on personality, not on breed label.) Location: Grays Ferry Clinic ​All of our dog meets are by appointment only; to get started, please complete the adoption application. To learn more about this dog, please contact us at [email protected] or 215-298-9680 ext. 16. Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society, 2900 Grays Ferry Ave, Phila, PA 19146 (by appointment only). PA Lic.# 06172.
