Dedicated Animal Welfare Group (DAWG) raises funds to provide lifesaving medical care for animals at Mission Viejo Animal Services Center. From routine dental procedures to critical, emergency treatment, orphaned dogs and cats receive outstanding veterinary care thanks to the generosity of our compassionate, animal-loving community. Every donation helps save the lives of special K-9s and felines and gives them a second chance at a healthy, happy future.

TRANSFORMING LIVES: FROM HOMELESS TO HEALED
Donations help us restore orphaned animals to good health.
WHERE COMPASSION
MEETS URGENT CARE
From our very first day serving the community, our mission has been clear: Every abandoned animal entering our shelter deserves the highest standard of care, and every homeless pet should have the chance to find a loving, forever home. Please consider making a donation today—your support directly funds urgent medical care and helps vulnerable animals heal, survive, and find loving homes. Together, we can save more lives.
Positive Outcomes
Meet Rosie – one of our many success stories made possible by supporters like you.
When this sweet 5 year old arrived at our shelter in pain, she needed TPLO surgery to repair her
knee. Thanks to your generous donations, Rosie received the high quality medical care she deserved. And today, she’s walking comfortably and living her best life.
And the good news keeps coming….Rosie’s foster family fell head over heels for her and officially adopted Rosie!
Your support truly transforms lives. Thank you for helping pets like Rosie get their second chance.
