PAWS of Dearborn County
Our Mission
At P.A.W.S. of Dearborn County Humane Center, we are dedicated to improving the lives of unwanted and abandoned dogs and cats. Our mission is to provide a safe and humane shelter environment while promoting successful adoptions and responsible pet care.
A Community Effort
Chartered in 2001, the Partners for Animal Welfare Society of Dearborn County began with a vision to ensure every adoptable animal has a chance at a forever, loving home. We believe it takes an entire community to provide the care and comfort our local lost and unwanted animals deserve. By working together, we strive to reduce pet over-population and eliminate cruelty through education and dedicated animal advocacy.
Our Care Model
Located in Lawrenceburg, our humane center serves as a vital resource for our community. Our professional staff and board of directors work tirelessly to maintain the health and well-being of every animal in our care. We are committed to creating a compassionate environment where our dogs and cats can thrive while they wait for their new families.
Your New Best Friend
Adopting a pet is a joyous decision that creates a lifelong bond. We take great care to help you understand what to expect when welcoming a new companion, ensuring a match that brings happiness to both you and your new pet. Our team is here to support you throughout the process, providing all the information needed to help your new family member settle in comfortably.
Get Involved
Are you ready to meet your next companion? We invite you to view our adoptable dogs and cats online or visit our facility on Charles A. Liddle Drive during our operating hours.
