From Paws-N-Claws Iowa

Paws-N-Claws Iowa strives to offer opportunities to those animals who need it most - whether it be due to medical necessity, behavioral challenges or emotional trauma; we look at every animal as an individual and treat them as such. Additional we work to bridge the gap between Commercial Breeders and the rescue industry; developing relationships built on honesty, trust and transparency.
