About
Report
We are an award-winning, 501(c)3 non-profit organization fully devoted to the well-being of homeless pets. Until they find their forever homes, all animals in our care receive shelter, food, enrichment - and the love of our staff and volunteers. We also provide veterinary care, training, and socialization to improve adoptability and quality of life. We do what it takes, for as long as it takes, for every animal that enters our doors.
Adopt
Report
The AWL is here to find the best match possible between adopters and the animals in our care. Keep in mind that a pet's personality is way more important, and it's best to try to find a pet that will fit into your lifestyle. It's best to allocate at least 30 - 45 minutes for the counseling process, but it can take longer if you need to schedule a meet-and-greet with your current pet(s).
Surrendering a Pet
Report
We highly recommend that you list your pet up for adoption on our website on the Community Pets page. If we could help resolve your reason for surrendering the pet, would you be willing to keep him/her? Please make any comments on your pets behavior or any other important information not stated above that will help us find your pet the best suitable home possible.
Lost & Found Pets
Report
As soon as you realize your pet is missing contact Charlotte County Animal Control, the Animal Welfare League, and other area shelters. All animals picked up by Animal Control are brought to the Animal Welfare League. By law, stray animals become our property after 5 days and they may be placed for adoption.
