Surrendering
Your Pet
All animals are thoroughly reviewed by our team at Paws prior to acceptance, in order to help the most people and animals possible. To do so, we require you to send the following:
YOUR Name and Contact Information
Description of Pet: Name, Breed, If they get along with other animals, etc.
Pet's Sex/Spayed or Neutered
Vetting History (including vaccinations, neutering, heartworm or flea prevention)
Photos
WHY YOU NEED TO SURRENDER YOUR PET
We receive many inquiries daily from individuals wanting to re-home their pet. Be aware that most county shelters and animal rescues are regularly at full capacity.
A surrender request does not guarantee acceptance unless we respond back to you with an intake day and time.
It is illegal to dump animals at our rescue facility. Our property is under surveillance and those that do will be prosecuted.
Email your request: pawsinmidga@gmail.com
OR message your request on Facebook.
Include ALL of the requested information listed above.
Surrendering your pet should never be an easy decision. When faced with challenges, exhaust all possible options to keep your pet such as: fostering by a family member or friend, professional training for behavioral issues, spay/neuter/vetting for root causes of a problem, daycare/walks for exercise...etc
Stray Animals
We are legally unable to take in strays. Local veterinarians and rescue organizations should be able to scan the animal for a microchip. If the stray is not chipped and you cannot identify their owner, local animal control must be contacted to place them on a stray hold. After the stray hold is up, animal control will work with local rescues to pull the animal into their care.
*Please do not keep or attempt to re-home a stray without first making attempts to find their owners and completing the required stray hold. Accidents happen and animals get out. They may have a loving family. Do your best to reunite them! Social media is an excellent way to reunite lost pets with owners. Always be sure to contact animal control, as not everyone uses social media.
