" The folks at Dorchester Paws are careful to match the right dog to the right household. They know the personalities and temperaments of the animals and do their best to find the right dog to adopt. The kennels and grounds are well-kept. The newest member of our family is a perfect fit!"

-Linda via Google Reviews

"Dorchester Paws’ love for the cats and dogs and this team’s dedication to helping these animals is phenomenal and unmatched. From the volunteers to the staff, they do everything possible and within their means to help and save the animals in their care. Whether you communicate with them by phone, email. or in person; my experience has always been a good one with truly caring, helpful, and professional people. I appreciate all that they do for the animals in caring for them there and in finding them a loving home. We had 3 different stray cats go through the TNR program there. The TNR program is an excellent, life saving program. They even have “Barn Cats” there that you can adopt."

-Paige via Google Reviews

" Thank you for an incredible adoption experience. The staff here is exceptionally kind and it shows in the way they take care of their animals. If you’re considering a pet, make dorchester paws the first place you look."
