PAWS will not be able to do wide-scale investigations.(If animal cruelty is ongoing, please contact police or barangay so that the cruel people can be apprehended and arrested.) For malpractice/pet shop/zoo related cases, PAWS can be cc’d so that we can help follow up with the government agency in charge to act on this:
1. For malpractice, contact Philippine Veterinary Medical Association (PVMA) ethics committee, report the clinic to Bureau of Animal Industry (BAI) and the City Mayor to request permit revocation for their clinic.
2. For pet-business related cruelties like grooming, boarding, training, etc or zoos, please report to BAI and the City Mayor’s Office.
3. For illegal wildlife keepers, wildlife cruelty, please report to Biodiversity Management Bureau within the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR-BMB) :
