Welcome to PAWS Darwin Online
Giving Darwin's homeless pets a second chance
Although the doors have closed on our Yarrawonga shelter as of the 20th October, we at PAWS Darwin are still here and are continuing our work towards animal welfare in the community. We have had to change some of our classes and our pet adoption program a little, but we are still here to help needy pets (and owners!) where we can. Currently, our adoptable pets are in foster homes, mainly with staff members and volunteers. We still have our adoptable pet listings on this website, our face book page and also on pet rescue (see links below). With adoptable pets becoming available through our pounds, we are still able to continue giving second chances to homeless pets in Darwin. Our adoption processes will remain the same as before, so please visit our Adoption Information page for further information. We still offer a wide range of services for our community, including; • Pre adoption information seminars and information on how to choose and care for your pet• Adoptions of pre loved dogs and cats • An animal welfare veterinary clinic, offering basic vet care services to the community (coming soon) • Information on basic care for domestic pets and wildlife • Animal boarding kennels • In home pet minding • Puppy Preschool classes, Juvenile Puppy Classes, k9 Obedience courses, Basic Behaviour and Calm Classes • In-home dog behavioural and assessment visits • Educational school visits with all kinds of domestic and farm animals! Staff and volunteers are trained to assist you with behavioural problems and training issues so please feel free to contact us for more information and assistance! We can be contacted on 89329496 or via email at pawsdarwin@gmail.com. You can also find PAWS Darwin on facebook to keep up to date with everything PAWS. Date Night with PAWS Darwin

Featured Pets
Jessie
Jessie came through the PAWS program after being surrendered. She is now searching for a very special home, with an owner who will be able to commit to her 100%.
A sweet natured and affectionate girl, Jess is a social butterfly and loves being with people and older children. Having melted our hearts, Jess is often seen playing a good game of zoomies, and making sure she shows herself off to anyone who is even remotely glancing her way!
Read more about Jess on her Petrescue profile here.
River
River came to us as an unclaimed stray in July 2010, along with her daughter Phoenix who has since found herself a forever home.
Miss River is a lovely girl who adores getting scratches under her chin. A friendly girl, she often loves to show off in front of people and races around playing with toys and scratching posts.
Read all about River on Petrescue here.
