Today's featured Kenny Cause is PAWS Animal Rescue, based in Tipperary.
PAWS started out in 1997 with the intention of simply re-homing unwanted dogs, but soon realised the huge amount of animals being abused, neglected and abandoned throughout the county.
It opened an animal shelter and started providing veterinary care, and soon it was providing support to animals from Cork and Kerry to Sligo and Donegal.
Since then PAWS has rescued, vaccinated, neutered and re-homed thousands of dogs.
The charity is totally dependent on donations from the public. If you'd like to help, visit PAWS.ie or phone (052) 915 3507.
