Our mission is to champion the fight for animal welfare by promoting spay & neuter services to reduce pet over-population, educating our community, enforcing animal rights, and providing a safe, loving environment for all animals in our care until placed in their forever homes.
Our Shelter
Our Mission
Our Mission
The AWL team is working to make great improvements in the care and housing of all companion animals. We partner with other shelters and rescues all over Indiana (and beyond) to give every pet the best life possible. We never euthanize for space, and strive to find the perfect placement for each animal.
Our Family
Our Mission
Our Family
AWL is ran entirely by loving, like-minded professionals that help save the lives and care for our community's homeless pets. Our employees and board of directors strive for zero tolerance of ending the lives of savable pets. To date AWL operates at a 91% save rate which meets our goal to maintain a no kill status.
We thank you all for your help and support!
Adopt
We screen all potential adopters to make sure the animal is a good fit for your household. Apply before you visit to avoid waiting to take home your new pet.
Foster
Fostering teaches animals important skills to be a great pet! Consider being a bottle feeder for orphaned kittens or giving a place for our seniors to call home.
Volunteer
Our volunteers walk dogs, socialize cats, wash dishes, and do the laundry! We also host several events throughout the year and love when we get volunteers!

INTERESTED IN A PERSONALIZED LICENSE PLATE?
When you choose the Pet Friendly Plate, you’re helping over 300 rescues and shelters statewide get free spay/neuter surgeries for cats and dogs. This addresses the root cause of pet overpopulation and saves adoptable animals from euthanasia.
Together, we can make Indiana a zero kill state!
