Our Mission

Our goal is to rekindle that unique relationship between animals and humans, starting by giving them an aromatic identity of their own, one step at a time. 

We passionately believe in preserving and sustaining our beautiful planet, hence we are currently in the process of partnering up with recycling associations and also animal welfare organisations in Australia. 

We invite you to join us in the mission to protect our beautiful world so that generations to come will look at us as great and noble leaders of yesterday.

Established in 1959, Animal Welfare League QLD (AWLQ) works with

optimism, integrity, innovation and initiative to create a brighter future for all companion animals in need.

AWLQ work with local councils, state government, rescue groups and the community to improve the outcomes for stray and surrendered pets, and are renowned for our unique and inventive programs, initiatives and rehoming strategies.

Our organisation was the first in Queensland to open a Community Veterinary Clinic to the public, making essential vet care services accessible for the first time to those owners previously unable to afford treatment for their pets. The charter of AWLQ’s Community Vet Clinics is that no suffering animal is ever to be turned away, despite the owner’s financial circumstances.

AWLQ strives to give every animal in need a second chance and maintains an organisation wide policy of zero euthanasia of healthy animals. We have one of the highest ‘save’ rates in Australia for a shelter of our size, rehoming an average of 800 animals each month from our four South East Queensland locations.
