Help Us Transform Shauls Paws into a Non-Profit for Veterans, First Responders & Service Dog Teams!
Hello friends, family, and supporters,
We’re excited to share our next big step: turning Shauls Paws into a non-profit organization with a mission close to our hearts.
Our vision is to create a safe, welcoming space in the Boulder Creek area where veterans, first responders, and service dog teams can come together to train, heal, and grow. This facility will offer specialized training packages, community support, and a sanctuary for those who give so much of themselves to others.
Here’s what makes our program even more meaningful:
All of the dogs trained through Shauls Paws will be rescues from shelters, carefully vetted and evaluated to become service dog partners for veterans and first responders. Your support helps us give both people and pups a second chance at life.

Why We Need Your Help
Starting a nonprofit and securing a dedicated training property takes heart, hard work, and community support. Your donation will help us:
Purchase a training and event facility
Rescue and train shelter dogs to become service animals trained to support these heros.
Offer customized programs for veterans, first responders, and their families
Build a strong, supportive community for service dog teams
Whether you're passionate about helping our heroes or believe in adopt-don’t-shop and no-kill shelter values, Shauls Paws is where those missions come together.
