Our vision
A South Australia where every pet has a loving home.
Our Mission
Connecting pets, people and community.
We connect pets, people and community by:
- Connecting pets with safe and happy homes
- Encouraging and supporting people to be informed and responsible pet owners
- Helping the community understand the value of owning a pet
Our beliefs
- Create opportunities - we strive to give every healthy cat and dog a second chance.
- Show compassion - we treat all animals and people with warmth, passion, dignity and respect.
- Be optimistic - we focus on what's possible, staying positive, calm and realistic.
- Share knowledge - we share with each other and the community everything we know about best practice animal care.
- Walk thetalk - we're trustworthy, transparent, honest and work hard to put our beliefs into action.
We reunite lost dogs and cats with their human family, provide temporary shelter through our foster care program and support thousands of responsible owners by boarding their pets.
For those grieving the loss of a faithful companion, our cremation and memorial team offers ways to say goodbye and celebrate the joy their pet brought to their lives.
AWL's Animal Care Centre at Cormack Rd, Wingfield is the base for most AWL services, including adoptions, lost cats and pet boarding. Lost dogs can be picked up from our Wingfield facility or out facility at Hewittson Rd, Edinburgh North. AWL's pet crematorium is next door at Hewittson Rd.
