2022 Animal Highlights

Dear Friends,

Welcome to our 16th annual Paws for Love!  Thank you for being part of this special event that will help us provide essential care for stray and homeless animals in Douglas County.

We are here to care for the homeless animals of the City of Superior, Douglas County, and the surrounding communities. Our community has continued to show support and involvement with the shelter in so many ways, even during COVID. Every dollar given during this event will help us continue our mission to care for those animals.

We hope you will click on all of the buttons above and below to learn more about our generous Major Sponsors, our wonderful auction item Donors, our Featured Photographer, and our amazing PFL Committee!

Remember to bid high, bid often and most importantly, have fun!

Thank you to everyone whose generous spirit of giving is vital to this event's success.

 Sincerely,

 

Thank you to our Paws for Love Major Sponsors, without whom this event would not be possible.
