National Pet Advocacy and Welfare Society (NPAWS)

Today, millions of America’s dogs and cats have been, and continue to be, subjected to non-therapeutic invasive procedures. Too often, procedures such as ear cropping, tail docking, declawing, and more go unnoticed---and are simply a part of "what is." National Pet Advocacy and Welfare Society (NPAWS) is changing the future for America’s pets by creating a Pet Positive(TM) country free from non-therapeutic invasive pet procedures. This does not include spay/neuter-related procedures, as they moderate population and euthanasia rates. The NPAWS Pet Positive Movement is a compassionate revolution sweeping the country to shine a light on these outdated norms and inspire the positive behavior needed to end them.
