DJ's Paw Rescue

DJ's Paw Rescue We speak for those who have no voice. I retired in 2015 (too young for benefits) and began doing rescue full time! I did wildlife rescue for about 6 years.

We were a privately funded animal rescue until August of 2018, we applied & recieved our 501C3 non profit organization,that helps abandoned, owner surrendered, and neglected animals. Hello everyone,,, I am the founder of DJ's Paw Rescue, I'd like to tell you about myself and my mission.I have done animal rescue for over 30 years on and off till 22 years ago when I really got into it as my true

passion. I am complicating securing my 501C3 non-profit rescue organization. I then started with domestic animals as well. This became my true passion. I began with motherless kittens, I bottle fed and raised many litters over the years and found them forever homes. I began getting so many calls and concerns about abused, neglected, abandoned, owner surrender dogs. I set my focus completely on the dogs, and I am blessed to have two very good friends that help me with the cats & kittens. Their tireless & dedicated efforts should never ever go unnoticed!! Every animal that we rescue is completely vetted, all age appropriate vaccinations as well as spayed or neutered before ever being adopted. I will not let any animal leave my rescue until this is done. We then do an extensive application, vet references as well as meet and greets and home visits to find the perfect fit for each and every fur child as well as a perfect fit for every family! We also include a contract that if the animal doesn't work out for any reason, no matter how long it's been adopted that it is to be returned to me. The contract also states me being able to do follow up visits announced or unannounced for welfare checks on adopted animals. I do not take this rescue lightly. It is about each and every animal we save! Always and forever! As of now, we survive & help these animals solely on donations and my husbands' generosity. It gets beyond expensive and the huge numbers of animals that need rescued is unbelievable. These are babies that do not make it to the Dog Warden or Humane Society. As we build this rescue page site, we will be adding many of our animal stories, pictures and updates, as well as adding animals we have up for adoptions. Please continue to check back as my page grows!!! Feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns, comments or interest on our rescue fur children! Dawn Johnson

Lulu was a problem child from the Tuscarwas Dog Pound. She is 8 years old and was extremely overweight, had kidney stones that required surgery and urinary incontinence issues that would required prescription food. We thought she would be one that would not be able to be placed. But then this wonderfull Mom & Dad who wanted an older furbaby, tried her for the two week trial that turned into a month till she melted their hearts to become adoption 9 for 2026. Congratulations! Thank you for adopting from Dj's Paw Rescue!
