For the Luv of Paws II, Inc.
Mohave Co., AZ
About Us
In 2005, Cherie DaLynn established For the Luv of Paws II, Inc. (FLP), a domestic animal rescue and sanctuary, after seeing the tremendous need to have a “no kill” sanctuary for domestic animals that had been neglected, abused and abandoned in Mohave County, Arizona.
The rescue/sanctuary, which is located approximately 25 miles southwest of Kingman, AZ on ten (10) acres of land in Golden Valley, Arizona, is fully permitted and licensed by Mohave County and is recognized by the State of Arizona and the Internal Revenue Service as a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization. A board of directors oversees the operation of the shelter. Volunteers help keep For the Luv of Paws functioning and successful at fulfilling our mission.
The rescue/sanctuary houses on average 200 dogs and cats each month, some who have special needs. All animals receive professional veterinarian care and required immunizations.
Individuals or families who want to adopt a dog or cat from the sanctuary must complete an application, and if adopting a dog, have a secure, fenced yard and agree to a home inspection. No animal is released to their adoptive parents until they have received their immunizations and been spayed or neutered.
