Hi Everyone, I'm Jubilee!! I'm 3 years old and looking for my furever family. My previous family abandoned me at a local shelter, but the lovely people from Paws in the City came to my rescue! I'm a very curious and friendly girl! I even love dogs! I am doing great with my foster family but I am looking for something more long-term.
Are you looking for a fluffy cuddle buddy?? If so, I'm the girl for you! Please fill out an application today,

I want to be your companion!
Love and purrs,

Doggy Spotlight - Coco Chanel
Hey ya'll! I'm Coco aka Coco Chanel and I need a furever home!! I'm staying in a boarding facility right now, and it's fun but I would rather be at home with you! I've gone through extensive training so I'm ready to impress you with my skills! I may not be a puppy any longer (I'm 6 years old now!) but I love to play and fetch is my favorite!! We could go to the park and play fetch for hours!
I love humans! I'm about 65 lbs (shh don't tell) so small kids may be intimidated by me at first, but I promise I will be gentle with my sloppy kisses ;)
Please consider taking me home today. I Promise you won't regret it. Fill out an application now! www.pawsinthecity.org/adopt/htm
Love and licks,
Coco Chanel <3
Aren't I purrddyy??

Volunteers wanted!
Please see descriptions below for volunteer opportunities available. If you're interested please email, laura@pawsinthecity.org or sign up on our website!
Transporters:
Most of our transports involve picking up a dog at Dallas Animal Services and taking him or her to one of our vets for a thorough entry exam. Other transport requests involve taking a dog to a new foster or to an adoption event. Transport requests are usually one-way. By choosing to be a part of the transport team, you choose which requests you can accept and only select those that work with your location and schedule. To sign up for this valuable team, please contactLaura Jobe, and she will add you to the list!
Transport Coordinators:
Availability during daytime hours to respond to email requests quickly. Responsibilities include sending out email requests for transport to the transport team and following up with appropriate volunteers/divisions.
Videography Coordinator & Videography Volunteers:
Videos are very helpful in getting our dogs adopted. The coordinator will create and build a network of videographers who will produce video features on our adoptable pets. S/he will assign videographers to dogs and introduce the videographer to the foster to coordinate schedules, etc. Right now, we have tons of photos and stories and currently need volunteers to create the videos. It may be necessary to meet up with a dog to gather some video footage. The Coordinator would ideally do video occasionally, but his or her main role would be to make sure all of our dogs get videos.
Home Check Volunteers:
PITC conducts home checks for all adopters and fosters, and team members throughout the Dallas area and surrounding cities are needed to perform these visits. Whenever a home check is required, the request is sent to all team members; those able to conduct the visit near their home or work are asked to help at their convenience so that all areas of Dallas and surrounding cities are covered. Training is minimal, and a simple checklist is provide to ensure each home is safe and appropriate for PITC animals. We have a strong need for volunteers that can do this in Arlington, Ft. Worth, Colleyville, etc.
Transitional Fosters:
Serve as short-term fosters for animals transitioning from kennel environment (usually strays) to a long-term foster home. Ideally, volunteer should be home during the day to spend time with a dog, focusing on crate training, leash work, housetraining, etc. Many of our regular fosters are unable to devote the time necessary for these training basics. Dogs that are not used to a home environment will benefit from a transitional stage with a temporary foster who can help crate train him or her and show him/her the ropes before they go to their regular foster home.
Happy Tail Composition:
Write updates on animals that were adopted to be shared on the website, newsletter and social media. You will contact adopters a month or so after adoption to obtain update and photos. All updates will be forwarded to you if received by other volunteers. You will take the update, add the history of the animal and use creative writing skills to creative a captivating happy tail (happy ending/update).

Fosters wanted!!
Please take a minute to look at the dogs and cats needing a foster home, available dogs/cats.
Paws is always looking for foster homes for our rescued dogs and cats. When you open your home (and heart) to an animal in need, this allows Paws to save another pet from euthanasia. As a foster you provide a rescued animal with a safe, loving home before finding their furever family! Paws covers all vet costs, all you provide is shelter and care!
If you're interested in fostering please fill out an application and a volunteer will be in touch soon!
Welcome!
Welcome to the new Paws in the City blog! This blog will contain stories of dogs and cats in need, news from the rescue community, important PITC events and more! Hope you enjoy, happy reading :)
