Founded in 1992, the Protection Associative Dobermann (PAD) is dedicated to rescuing, protecting, and rehoming Dobermanns in need. Operating throughout France, it provides medical care, sterilization, and temporary shelter to rescued dogs before finding them loving families. Thanks to its network of foster homes, boarding kennels, and partnerships with other shelters, PAD works every day to prevent mistreatment and offer these animals a second chance.
