PAWSitive Changes, Inc.

PAWSitive Changes, Inc. is a 501c3 non-profit organization that strives to reach youth and dogs in need.  We sponsor an innovative project, The PAWS Program, in which incarcerated youth are paired with shelter dogs in order to care for, train, socialize, and prepare the dogs for adoption into forever homes.  The principles of compassion, empathy, and positive reinforcement are key to our mission.

What We Do

PAWSitive Changes, Inc. is a local non-profit group that focuses on rescuing shelter animals while assisting at-risk youth.  You can feel good knowing that our dogs are all second-chance animals that are teaching compassion to youth in your community. 

100% of donated funds is used to care for the dogs in the program.  While no money is earned by the youth in the program, they learn valuable life lessons of compassion, hope, and patience.

PAWS dogs receive a combination of:

• Vet Care
• Basic Training
• Socialization
• Forever Homes
