Welcome to the ECPC Family!

Our Mission

East Coast Paws N Claws is a 501(c)3 non-profit FOSTER based dog rescue group at the Jersey Shore. We are dedicated to rescuing homeless and abandoned animals, primarily dogs from high-kill shelters and owners who can no longer care for them.

By working with committed volunteers, foster homes, our southern rescue partners, local veterinarians, trainers, and boarding facilities, we are able to rescue hundreds of animals every year, provide them with loving temporary care, and find them well matched, carefully screened forever homes. We also serve as a resource to our community and all pet owners by providing education and information on responsible pet ownership, including the importance of spay/neuter, positive behavior training, and good nutrition.
