The Animal Welfare League Queensland

The Animal Welfare League of Qld takes care of approximately 10,000 strayed and abandoned animals a year throughout South East Queensland. The AWL receives no state or federal government funding, relying predominantly on the community for support. It is through the continued support of the community that we will achieve a brighter future for every companion animal in need. 

Weapons of mass production

The 2010 National Desexing Month campaign 'Weapons of Mass Production' is due out within days and the AWL are hoping for the biggest month yet.
Vets, councils and animal welfare organisations from across the nation are invited to participate by encouraging pet owners to desex their pets before they breed to prevent accidental and unwanted litters.
