Stray Paws Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, foster-based rescue. Our organization believes it is our moral responsibility to protect and improve the lives of rescued animals and place them in loving permanent homes in the St. Louis Metro Area. Donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
We are a foster-based rescue, meaning our animals are cared for in private foster homes. To meet or adopt an animal, you must fill out an application form.
Stray Paws Rescue's official mailing address for monetary donations is:
Stray Paws Rescue
7055 Mexico Road, Box 1663
St. Peters, MO 63376
Please do not mail donations to any other location/addresses, as we will not be able to confirm receipt of the donation.
We pull major medical cases, including dogs with severe injuries, illnesses, and special needs.
We pull dogs from high-kill shelters across 11 states, giving them a second chance at life.
We prioritize finding the right home, not just any home, ensuring a great fit for both the pet and adopter.
We conduct home visits to ensure each pet is placed in a safe, loving, and suitable environment.
We cover all supplies, vetting, and food for fosters. The only requirement? Love and care.
We invest in training resources, including professional board-and-train programs when necessary.
We welcome all breeds and advocate for misunderstood ones, including bully breeds.
We respond to urgent situations, pulling animals in danger from disasters and neglect cases.
Unlike many rescues, we try to help responsible owners who truly have no other option.
Every dog in our care is given space, comfort, and enrichment to reduce stress.
If an adopter needs help, we remain a resource for the life of the pet.
A single act of generosity can make a lasting impact. Your one-time donation helps us cover the essential expenses for the animals in our care, ensuring they receive the treatment and support they need.
Every dollar you donate goes directly to helping the animals in our care. Choose any amount that feels right for you—your generosity truly makes a difference.
These are just examples of how your donation can make a difference. When you donate, you can help cover specific expenses like medical care or food for our animals. Choose any amount that works for you, whether as a one-time donation or a recurring gift.
Imagine knowing your donation is helping animals every single month. By setting up a recurring monthly donation, you provide ongoing care that can cover everything from food and shelter to urgent medical treatments.
Whether you can give $10 or $100, your monthly gift will be part of a lasting commitment that saves lives and transforms futures. A little goes a long way when it’s given with love.
See how our work is making a difference in the lives of animals and the community.

🌟Milagra (Spanish for Miracle) 🌟
Stray Paws learned of a dog named Mila on Facebook, after a Texas rescue posted about her story. Mila was a stray in Brownsville, Texas, living on the streets. Neighbors said she’d been beaten with baseball bats (for no reason other than “fun”) and left for dead. She suffered many severe injuries. Most notably, much of Mila’s upper jaw was broken and necrotic, leaving her with an open wound.
