DESPERATE PAWS OF ORANGE COUNTY DOG CLUB'S "PAW IT FORWARD" CAMPAIGN supports Needy and Adoptable Dogs.
"Because not all PAWS are as Fortunate as our PAWS to have such Wonderful and Loving PARENTS!"
The "PAW IT FORWARD" Campaign supports Needy and Adoptable Dogs in our Local Community by Holding and Funding Special Adoption Events as well as our Presents for Paws Drive. 100% of All Funds Collected through this Campaign goes directly to benefiting Needy and Adoptable Dogs in our County's Shelters to assist with placing Dogs in their New Forever Homes by reducing the Adoption Fees set forth by the Shelters at Adoption Events like this one:
Additionally the "PAW IT FORWARD" Campaign has joined forces with "BETTY'S BOOT CAMP FOR DOGS AND HUMANS" which Betty Estremo has graciously agreed to donate her time and expertise to provide FREE of Charge special training classes to all the Dogs which are Adopted through the Adoption Events. This will benefit the Dogs and their New Owners so that these dogs will never end up back in our Shelter System because of behavioral problems!
We also help out in other areas as well. This past March we helped by creating a County Wide Pet Relief Effort for Japan following their Earthquakes and Tsunamis. With the helps of those in the community and other companies and organizations we were able to collect and ship nearly 40,000 Pounds of Pet Food and Relief Items to aid their needy pet community. Here is a Video from that effort:
Your Donations are what makes these Special Adoption Events possible. The Dogs Count on your Help and Assistance! We are a completely Volunteer Run Program and our Only Desire is to place Dogs Directly into their New Forever Homes from our County's Shelters.

THE DESPERATE PAWS OF ORANGE COUNTY DOG CLUB'S "PAW IT FORWARD" CAMPAIGN benefits Local Needy and Adoptable Dogs by funding Special Adoption Events in our community. This Club is so much more than just a place to have a great time with our PAWS but also through the Club's joint efforts with Local Businesses, Agencies, Dog Welfare Groups and County Officials we have been able to positively affect the lives of many more deserving PAWS who are not as fortunate to have wonderful PARENTS like our PAWS do.
DESPERATE PAWS OF ORANGE COUNTY DOG CLUB, its Efforts, Activities and Programs have been recognized by the following. Here is what they had to say:
"O.C. Animal Care has benefited greatly from our relationship with Desperate Paws of O.C. Dog Club and we are looking forward to the B.A.R.K 4 Kids program. As Orange County’s largest animal shelter, we see firsthand the lack of education in our community through the number of animals that come to our shelter lacking identification, proper care, and proper behavioral training. Through programs like this, and the wonderful volunteers in our community like Desperate Paws of O.C. Dog Club, we hope to further our cause of educating our younger community in responsible pet ownership and a higher respect for the animals we work so hard to protect." - Ryan Drabek, Director of O.C. Animal Care
THE NEEDY PAWS APPRECIATE ANY AND ALL DONATIONS!
