Category: About Us

Tito is just popping in today to say hello and thank you to all our wonderful followers and supporters.

Since his arrival at Paws Give Me Purpose, Tito has been making slow but steady progress with just learning how to be a dog.

Sadly senior dogs with special needs like Tito are often dumped by those who promised to love them forever on the street and in shelters.

All of our Sanctuary residents need people like all of you with extra-big hearts to help give them their second chance at life – Tito is very grateful.

We thank you all for giving us the ability to do what we do. Your donations have saved Tito’s life and so many others!

Since his arrival to Paws Give Me Purpose Inc. Sanctuary, this little boy has so much energy he is literally non stop all day long.

His zest for life is something that is difficult to describe in writing, but he is truly a happy peppy little boy who has stolen the hearts of many!

Teddy is now safe, spoiled, and loved – as he should be! Just watching him sleep brings us to tears; he smiles in his sleep.

Although Teddy suffers from some serious medical issues, he is a happy, go-lucky boy showing no symptoms. You’d never even know he isn’t 100% healthy either as nothing seems to bother him.

He enjoys our homemade, meals/treats and takes his medications and supplements like a champ. He is very playful, extremely loving, sweet, and really enjoys attention.

It is extremely difficult for us to wrap our heads around the fact that those he devoted his entire life to loving decided he was no longer worthy of being loved.

Our promise to Teddy and every beautiful soul that walks through our doors is to give them their best lives daily with unconditional love for the rest of their lives.

Believe it or not, dogs are one of the most misunderstood animals in the world. A lot of humans tolerate their dogs’ bad behaviors, but a very large percentage do not and they get rid of the dog when they absolutely could have corrected those bad behaviors if the humans themselves changed their ways.

For this Baby Shark, Paws Give Me Purpose was her last chance for love after being failed by humans her entire life, including being surrendered to a shelter where her already troubling behavior escalated out of fear. 

When a senior, special needs, hospice case, or difficult to adopt dog is brought into a shelter, we are the one they call. When a rescue finds that one of the dogs they thought was adoptable needs a special place to spend the rest of their lives, we are the one they call.

We are that special place where Cocoa can take all the time she needs to heal mentally, physically and spiritually – and that is what she is doing right now. She is decompressing, observing, and slowly learning to trust. This is what she needs right now and nothing more. 

Through your faith in us and your generous contributions, we have been able to save the lives of many very special dogs like Cocoa who almost didn’t get a second chance.

Paws Give Me Purpose is her home and we guarantee she will never be failed by another human again! Our promise to this Baby Shark is to provide a safe and loving environment for the rest of her life. We know this is no easy feat, but we will always keep our promise.

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