Dorchester Paws

Dorchester Paws, formerly known as Frances R. Willis SPCA, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of animals in Dorchester County, South Carolina. As the only open-admission shelter in the county, we serve towns such as Rosinville, Ridgeville, Oakbrook, St. George, Summerville, and Grover, SC. We take in all lost, abandoned, and abused animals, providing them with food, shelter, medical care, and ultimately, a chance for a loving forever home. Since 1972, we’ve worked tirelessly to reduce pet overpopulation, prevent cruelty, and champion responsible pet ownership in our community.
