People for Paws is a nonprofit organization located in the greater Shenandoah area. We are a volunteer organization dedicated to rescuing, fostering and finding homes for companion animals. People for Paws is comprised of a 7 member board and an increasiong number of local citizens and volunteers. We assist in the adoption and relocation of stray and pound animals from the Cities of Shenandoah and Essex as well as the surrounding rural area. Last year we rehomed over 125 dogs and cats. These animals were fully vetted including altering, specialized treatments and all shots. Since its inception in 2005 People for Paws has rehomed, or reunited with their owners, over 1500 companion animals. People for Paws has joined the Southwest Iowa Animal Coalition. This organization is a network of area rescues, County Shelters and Animal Food Banks.
