Paws For Life

PO Box 403 Chesapeake City, MD 21915

All too often, perfectly lovable, well trained dogs are lost or abandoned, and find themselves in an overcrowded shelter facing euthanasia. Local SPCA's have served communities for years by taking in strays, kenneling them, and encouraging the public to adopt these homeless animals.

But not all animals get adopted. Unfortunately, the S.P.C.A. can not control the rate at which the community adopts pets and sometimes even the best animals have to be destroyed simply because of lack of room. There are so many wonderful dogs that do not get a second chance....

Ginny Suarez, a member of Board of Directors at the Cecil County S.P.C.A. for almost twenty years, took the humanitarian efforts of the S.P.C.A. to a new level by founding Paws for Life, Inc.

It started years ago when Fouga, one of Ginny's favorite dogs at the shelter, was about to be put down. Ginny took Fouga to her veterinarian, had her spayed and vaccinated and then proceeded to find her a loving home. Since then, hundreds of successful placements have been made.
