"Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole."
-Roger Caras.
Our Mission: Rescue - Rehab - Re-home
Hello and thank you for taking the time to visit our site. If you are reading this we can pretty much guarantee you are a dog lover. Being a dog lover you probably know how many dogs are dumped, left to fend for their selves, or dropped off at a local shelter. These dogs are the unfortunate ones. Our mission in life is to find these dogs and give them a second chance. We can’t do that without your help though. The biggest challenge we are facing right now is foster homes for the dogs that are stuck in a shelter or the local pound. Without foster homes we are out of commission and standing on the side lines watching the action happen. YOU can help and it won’t cost you a dime. Please visit the Foster Opportunities page to learn more. If you want to skip the page and fill out an application - click here. Everyone can make a difference. This is a new year and we want to start it off right by growing our family and saving dogs!!! Please consider joining our cause! Remember, you can only do what you can do, but what you do makes a difference!

If you cannot foster we have many other needs such as a foster coordinators, event assistance, bakers (fundraising), and transporters. Even if you don't want to volunteer but have a great idea, we would love to here it! Please email us at midwestpaws@ymail.com

if you would like to support us by a monetary donation please click the link below. Your small donation will help support our cause in ways such as medical attention, routine shots and medication, food, crates, and toys. Thank you in advance!

A Little Bit About Us...

    

Midwest PAW's, located in the Kansas City metro area, is a rescue group devoted to German Shorthair Pointers, English Pointers and Weimaraners. We are a no-kill, non-profit, all volunteer organization. We do not have a shelter or kennels therefore, all of our dogs live in foster homes.

We are a group of volunteers with a special place in our hearts for these wonderful dogs. Whether we find a dog in need at a shelter, wandering the streets, or if they are with a family who no longer has time for them, we take them in. If they need to put on some weight, need medical attention, or just need someone to show them what love is, we provide it all. We find a foster home for each dog to stay with until we find their forever family.


                  
         I Have Done Something

I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society.

I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness, and betrayal. And I was angry.

"God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?

God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly, "I have done something," he replied. "I created you."
