What We Do

Through collaboration, education, advocacy and resource sharing, MDAWA works to increase companion animal adoptions, reunite more lost pets with their owners, spay/neuter more pets, and decrease the number of relinquished pets. Every day, the staff and volunteers of MDAWA member organizations work tirelessly to do the best for each animal that comes into their care. MDAWA members also provide a variety of critical support services and resources to companion animals and their owners.
