Make A Donation

You can be a part of our Second Chance's story!


Updated: 21st June 2012
Dog Sponsorship Program

This program aims to raise funds to maintain the dogs at our shelter. We have close to 200 dogs, it is a huge financial burden for the shelter. Therefore we need to reach out to people who are willing to help in a way that they can i.e. to sponsor one or maybe even two dogs.

The program works this way.You can choose a pup/dog to sponsor from the list of dogs’ pictures sent to you. You can opt to choose :-

A)Sponsor RM30 a month (food only)

B)Sponsor RM50 a month (food and medical) 

C)Sponsor one-off payment of RM150 for its neutering costs.

Or it can be a general sponsorship meaning there is no dog/pup selected but the money is for all dogs in the shelter.

Payment can be made to Maybank account 112857033831 which is held jointly by our treasurers Yeoh Saik Kim & Liong Ai Wee.
We will issue receipts for payments made and mail them to the address given. 

Your sponsorship will help these dogs greatly and it is also a morale booster for us to go on in our rescue works.  Please contact us if you want to visit the dogs at the shelter located at 3 ½ Mile Old Klang Road. We would be most happy to show you around.



New Shelter Building Fund
As most of you aware that Second Chance (aka Paws Mission) will be relocated to a piece of one acre land at Ulu Langat very soon. With this, we have created a building fund account for fund raising purposes in order to carry out some ground works and simple construction for our furrizens settle down. The estimated costs for the shelter ground works and construction are amounting to approximately RM100K. As such, for those who are interested and would like to contribute to Second Chance's building fund, you can either bank in cheque/cash or interbank transfer (internet banking) to the following :-

CIMB Bank, Pearl Point Branch (inside Scott Garden), Old Klang Road
Lim Mei Leng and Sim Hui Ling
Current Account No : 14280005822051

In addition, Second Chance would like to take this opportunity to say a BIG THANK YOU to those who have already contributed to the building funds and may you all be blessed abundantly.

About Us

Our Vision

Paws Mission has a no-kill policy and aims to reduce the stray animal population and improve animal welfare in Malaysia through the following objectives:

·       Rehome stray and abandoned puppies and dogs;
·       Vaccinate and neuter them;
·       Educate pet owners / adopters on caring for and neutering their pets; and
·       Raise awareness and advocate for animal welfare among the public at large.

Our Story

Paws Mission was set up in 2009 by a small group of animal lovers who came together after reading about one lady’s appeal for help in caring for a litter of abandoned puppies, fondly dubbed the “12 soldiers”. At the time, the lady, known as Aunty Kiew, was already feeding a dozen stray dogs and more than 40 cats in the Old Klang Road area.


The group started out by feeding the stray dogs which roamed outside the Chap Fook Tong Temple, located at 3 ½ mile off Old Klang Road. The temple caretakers then offered the use of the land behind the temple to build a shelter for the dogs and helped to build the shelter at minimal costs, giving Paws Mission a base to shelter rescued dogs.

The fully volunteer-run shelter has since been extended several times and now encompasses multiple main kennels and several smaller enclosures and uncovered fenced areas. Upkeep of the shelter is funded primarily by donations from the public and volunteers. As such, our main concerns are space and financial constraints.

However, there is bigger underlying problem – overpopulation of strays in Malaysia. The battle of overpopulation dogs and cats is a continuous fight. We do not only aim to help get strays off the streets but we also hope to raise awareness of this plight among the public and promote the solution of spaying and neutering all stray animals to curb this problem.

Our efforts in rehoming programs have reached out to many people and also volunteers who wish to contribute to work at the shelter. To date, the shelter houses about 150 dogs and has held over 15 adoption drives in various venues including major shopping malls such as IOI Mall, Puchong, and Mid Valley, Kuala Lumpur, and has successfully rehomed over 250 dogs.

Joey is all that’s left part 1

From the 6 pups rescued by our fellow rescuer Michelle prior to the Happy Garden Adoption Drive, Joey is the only one is still looking for home. It must be sad for her to be apart from her siblings, but it must be even sadder for her that she haven’t found her forever home. So please, if you’re interested in getting a pup, why not choose to adopt her instead?

~ Happy Garden Adoption Drive Eve : 6 very frightened looking pups ~

ok.. it’s actually 5 very frightened pups and 1 very stubborn pup >_<
