Additional Information

Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers, community members, past adopters, and local leaders who turned out to welcome Richard Thompson and the Zootoo crew to our shelter on April 10. As the DAWS community, we had a wonderful time and already feel like winners. Thank you for your support always but especially with your help of getting us into the top 20 for eligibility for the grand prize makeover.

The Danbury Animal Welfare Society, Inc. (DAWS) is a non-profit, volunteer-run organization dedicated to improving the lives of animals in our community and beyond. Founded in 1974, DAWS provides shelter and care to animals in need, offers adoption counseling to place our animals in loving, forever homes, promotes responsible pet guardianshp and the humane treatment of animals, and works toward ending animal overpopulation through education, spay/neuter, and trap, neuter and return programs.
We currently have over 160 active volunteers, ~50 in the Cat Program, ~70 in the Dog Program and the remainder focusing on Marketing, Fundraising and Special Events.

Danbury Animal Welfare Society is a 501(c)3 charitable organization and your donation is tax deductible.

In 2007, DAWS placed over 520 animals in new forever homes.
