Pawse Active seeks to create exceptional, sustainable yoga and active wear for animal lovers. We strive to unite the wellness world with the animal rescue world by bringing ancient elements of Yogic Philosophy into our products and events. Our Rescue Puppy Yoga and Hikes help socialize our adoptable dogs, help our dogs be seen by potential adopters and help to raise money for their veterinary and travel costs. Together, we are making the world a happier place for all people and pets.

100% for the dogs

We created this organization to help raise awareness for our dog rescue work in Antigua and for homeless animals around the world. Every item purchased provides a meal for a stray dog in Antigua and funds our work to save animals.

Renée

Renée is MacKenzie's mother and biggest supporter.  She's behind the scenes most of the time, but she surely helps run the show. She is in charge of our activewear in Baltimore, Maryland. Renée has two rescue dogs from Antigua and 6 rescue cats from BARCS. She fosters, transports and does what ever needs to be done to rescue animals. In her free time, you'll find her gardening, laughing, snuggling with the pets or helping MacKenzie with all of her ventures.
