Welcome Sylvester

At 15 years of age, sweet Sylvester found himself stray, and then behind shelter walls. Alone, terrified, and severely emaciated he waited for those he thought loved him, but no one ever came.

His fragile body tells a story of long-term neglect and hardship; he has no teeth left, an infected testicle, and he is blind. Since his history is a mystery, we have no way of knowing how long he has struggled to eat or how long he has endured pain with no relief.

Sylvester requires bloodwork to check for what his little body has endured and to see our Cardiologist for his heart. He has been in quarantine since his arrival for a horrible upper respiratory infection, is on antibiotics, and we have begun a very strict feeding schedule to help him slowly gain some much needed pounds. He has a tough road ahead of him, and there are no guarantees, but his life matters and we will do everything in our power to help him so that he can enjoy his remaining golden years to the fullest.

Sylvester is now safe, will never go without care, and every moment from this one forward will be filled with nothing but kindness and dignity.

Please help us give Sylvester the care he should have received all along. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will help change Sylvester’s life.

These Are The Moments

There are moments in Sanctuary when you doubt what you do, simply because others don’t believe these lives matter. 

There are moments in Sanctuary when you feel like closing your doors due to the lack of public support and understanding about what it is you do. Sometimes, we personally go without so a dog can have a second chance at life, no matter how long or short that life may be. 

The work we do here at Paws Give Me Purpose Sanctuary can at times be very difficult and emotionally daunting; but just when we feel like giving up, we see a small moment like this, that brings tears to our eyes and smiles to our faces. A single moment that makes everything we go through here worth it.

These are the moments that make PGMP a special place. 

Terrific Tuesday

It’s tiny Tofu’s terrific tongue out Tuesday! This precious little girl knows how to make us smile.

Whether it’s doing her little dance over to cuddle with you, or trying to steal the entire log of honey goat cheese from your hand, there is no way you can resist the urge to laugh at her total disregard for all the others who are waiting for their snack.

She hopes you all had a ridiculously amazing day and took a moment to smile for the memory of it will last forever.
