PAWS & More, also known as Washington County Humane Society, is a private, adoption-guarantee shelter located in Washington, Iowa. “PAWS” stands for “Providing Animals with Shelter”, while “More” stands for the loving care and treatment we give to every animal who passes through our doors.

PAWS & More Director, Amber Talbot, describes a successful collaboration with Maddie’s Fund for short-term dog fostering at PAWS.

Animals exhibiting complex behaviors or with severe anxiety or other behavior needs require intensive or ongoing training to be adoptable.

Bringing humane education to classrooms to prevent kids from growing up believing that animals around us deserve cruelty or neglect.
