They Save Us, Let's Save Them
Protecting Paws for Life
Our Mission
Protecting Paws for Life is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, operating in the State of Florida, dedicated to supporting domestic violence shelters in becoming or maintaining fear free pet-friendly environments.
Our mission is to ensure that families in crisis can stay together with their pets; preventing pets from being left behind and facing potential abuse, neglect, or even death, as well as avoiding being turned over to an already overpopulated and overburdened animal shelter system.
If you are in crisis, please reach out to the toll-free
Florida State Hotline at (800) 500-1119
Helping where it matters
Our organization is determined to have a positive effect on these statistics by providing domestic animal-related support and services to domestic violence shelters at low/no cost thus freeing up their resources to support their residents and increase their capacity for more pets.

Our Vision
Protecting Paws for Life Sanctuary
Our organization is committed to purchasing property, within the State of Florida, providing forever sanctuary in a kennel-free environment to at-risk domestic animals. This property will also serve as overflow to our domestic violence shelter partners to accommodate additional pet housing for their residents.
In addition, we will also support local animal rescues by providing discounted board & train services.
