How To Help

Do you feel you want to help animals but you are not in a position to adopt a dog at the moment?
Well there are plenty of other ways you could help.



PAWS is a Charity and as such, we depend on the public to help us keep our doors open to those in need. We receive a grant from the Department of Agriculture at Christmas. However, our main source of income to cover the shelter running costs are YOUR donations.

We now have the facility to accept donations online.

You can also become a monthly sponsor by downloading our Standing Order Form, print it out and fill in your details and return to PAWS. Remember no amount is too small.

Or send a donation directly through the post to, PAWS Animal Rescue. Mullinahone. County Tipperary E41 R652.

Tax Efficient Giving
If you are a PAYE tax payer or a self assessed tax payer and donate €250 or more a year, PAWS can claim back the tax that you have already paid on your donation, hence bulking up your donation to us by up to 40% at NO extra cost to you. Please email info@paws.ie for details

Corporate Donations

Under the 2001 Finance Act, a corporate tax relief scheme is in place for companies that make donations to eligible charities. A company donation greater than €250, with no upper limit, to PAWS, can qualify for tax relief at the current rate of corporation tax. The company will claim a deduction for the donation as if it were a trading expense.

Come down to our kennels and help out on your time off. If you are a dog lover there is nothing more fulfilling than to be able to help out with the dogs first hand. Pop in between 11.30 and 1 to walk a dog and ask the kennel staff if there are any other jobs you can do to help.


As our kennels are always full to the brim and our kennel staff are run off their feet, there is not enough time to walk the dogs regularly. If you enjoy walking and like to keep fit, why not come on down and bring a few dogs out for nice walks around the countryside? 

Dog walking is between 11.30 and 1 every day except Saturday.
