AWL Pets
Founded in 1963, AWL is a non-profit organization that provides temporary home, medical services, and caring attention for countless dogs, cats, and other animals. The shelter exists solely due to the generous contributions of citizens, businesses, and the community.

We accept cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, and American Express for donations, adoptions fees, and return-to-owner fees.
