The Dog House - A CSUN Senior Thesis Short Documentary

Welcome to the fundraising campaign for the CSUN Senior Thesis  Documentary Film, The Dog House.

We appreciate your time and support in learning more about our Documentary! 

In a hopefully heartwarming and humorous documentary, we experience the journey of Paw Works, a non-profit animal shelter nestled in Oxnard California. We witness what both animals and people alike have persevered through transforming their struggles into triumphs with the clear goal of saving and finding new homes for these loving animals.

'The Dog House' takes the audience on an emotional journey expanding on the idea of cold isolated dog shelters and focusing on the rehabilitation and intense dedication needed to care for these animals. Unlike conventional shelters, Paw Works focuses on spreading the message and legacy of ‘No Kill’ showing the community how to better care for their four-legged friends. They follow a PawCratic oath to lead, protect, heal, and shelter animals. Relying on donations and fundraising to continue their 10-year-long endeavor. The documentary follows the diverse stories of both the furry residents and their human companions. Capturing the profound impact these canine connections have on the lives of their owners.

Our goal is to help Paw Works continue pulling animals off euthanasia lists and overcrowded living conditions by documenting the work done by these dedicated few. A shared love for animals is what drives us, showing off all the real challenges faced when working with limited resources and grand ideals.
