We’ve begun 2025 with nearly 300 supporters! As we continue our mission to obtain legal protections for our companion animals, the need for your voice & advocacy remains. We are working on expanding our outreach & visibility through social media (Facebook, Instagram, & TikTok). We hope these mediums will act as both educational resources for pet parents and invaluable exposure for our cause. Be on the lookout for an update when these are officially operational! 

In the meantime, please consider supporting The P.A.W.S. Doctrine, which will help protect all furry, feathered, and scaled companions, by:

-       Ending Outdoor Living & Chaining for Dogs & other Companion Animals

-       Providing Additional funding for Animal Shelters

-       Enhancing Definitions & Strengthening Penalties for Animal Hoarding, Neglect, Abuse, & Cruelty

-       Providing Incentives for Guardians to License/Register their Pets

-       Establishing Supports for Guardians via Pet Pantries, and Low-Cost Spay & Neuter Programs & Medical Clinics

-       Empowering Courts to Rule in Favor of the Animal’s Best Interests in Custody Cases & Estate Disputes

 Here’s What To Do:  

1.     Read The P.A.W.S. Doctrine carefully. 

2.    Complete your State Petition by answering three simple questions (name, email, & state of residence) to add your signature. 

3.    Share, share, SHARE!!! Share with friends, family, neighbors, animal shelter & rescue volunteers and employees, members of your place of worship, etc.  Your voice matters.

Together, let's send a clear message to Congress:

P.A.W.S. for Change because Pets Are Family, Not Property
