Paws & Prayers

While this rescue is better than nothing and I don’t discourage adopting from them because after all you’re saving a life, but this group is something else and If I could give a zero I would.
There’s other terrific rescue groups to volunteer for and donate to that disclose financials and takes great care of their animals in the Akron area with very professional people in charge. I strongly suggest to take a look at the other groups and compare if you’re looking to volunteer your time or donate your money. I was not impressed with this group or the individuals that are in charge.

After losing my childhood dog we went to Petfinder to find our next rescue. I found a dog named «Bandit» at a rescue in Akron. I suggested my mom go check him out. She took a look at another «Bandit», also at a rescue in Akron. We ended up going to see him at Paws & Prayers and adopted him on the spot! I was a little shocked to meet him, however, as he wasn’t the beagle I initially expected. That’s when we realized we looked at different dogs. Three years later Bandit continues to bring a lot of joy to our life and we’re thrilled Paws & Prayers was available as a rescue organization to save Bandit and bring him into our lives. We continue to joke that we adopted the «wrong» Bandit but he has been the right one in our family for a few years and many years to come.

Paws & Prayers is on of Northeast Ohio’s largest foster based pet rescues! They have been operating for 10 years to re-​home unwanted animals! Adopt! Don’t shop!
