Tito is back at Paws Give Me Purpose resting and recuperating after a very difficult day.

To say we were on edge today was an understatement; Tito is not an easy dog to handle behaviorally. We were also very concerned about his body temperature dropping like last time – thankfully that did not happen.

A huge shout out of gratitude goes to our Veterinary team at House Paws Mobile Veterinary Service for dealing with Tito today – we value your work with all our Sanctuary residents; what you do for them and us is beyond measure!

Please continue to keep Tito in your thoughts and prayers.

We come to you today asking your generous hearts for help and to send positive, healing prayers for Tito. 

Tomorrow, Tito will be heading in to surgery to remove the remaining 10 rotten teeth in his mouth. For those not familiar with his story, Tito needed a total of 17 teeth extracted. They are extremely rotted and infecting his gums. These teeth are surely a cause of pain for him for far too long.

7 teeth were extracted back in February at the same time he was neutered, but Tito’s body temperature dropped a bit too low during the procedure and the Veterinary team wanted to be sure that he was not in any danger.

As much as we hated waiting to relieve his remaining discomfort, we needed to wait a couple months after his last surgery; his little body really had been through so much in a short period of time – he needed time to heal. 

While Tito has been uncomfortable, he has not been in any pain. He is eating very soft food and seems to enjoy it. 

While Tito’s history is a mystery due to being found as a stray, his condition reveals that until his arrival at Paws Give Me Purpose, his life was surely a difficult one and we are doing everything in our power to make it better for him – but we cannot do it without you. 

Please consider making a life-saving donation. With you by our side, we can give Tito, and many more unwanted souls, a fighting chance to have the opportunity to live out their lives to the fullest.

We believe dogs are just the most amazing creatures who give us unconditional love. To us, they are role models for being alive – you really can learn so much from them.

It was a beautiful weekend here in Southern New Jersey, and what made it even more special for all our Sanctuary residents was celebrating Bailey’s 7th Birthday!

All the pups enjoyed themselves snacking on cupcakes, doggie treats, and all received party favors of new toys – which were the big hit of the day.

There is nothing like celebrating a Birthday at Paws Give Me Purpose, for it is not just a celebration of getting a year older, it’s a celebration of a life that was almost no longer going to be.

This is what we do here at Paws Give Me Purpose.
