PAWS Darwin
PAWS Darwin is an animal welfare organisation with charitable status. PAWS Darwin is dedicated to providing care for unwanted animals with the ultimate goal of re-homing these animals to loving families. We also aim to educate the community on animal issues such as the importance of de-sexing your pet which is achieved through school excursions and advertising campaigns.
‘Train at PAWS Darwin’ also does weekly training sessions both at Anula & Palmerston. These can help people to learn to connect with their dog and can also help with problems owners are experiencing with their best friends.
