Incoming Hospice Resident!

Elmo is a 15 year old Shih Tzu with several masses, dental disease, chronic dry eye, a heart murmur and general muscle wasting.

It may be too late, and it’s not at all enough, but in the end we know that we are doing right by Elmo.

We know his time with us may be short – but we could not allow him to die alone in a shelter.

Our goal is provide respect and dignity no matter Elmo’s  age, appearance or health status.

Please consider making a donation today to help with Elmo’s care. No amount is ever too small!

Making new friends can be hard, but we at Paws Give Me Purpose believe senior special needs dogs are happiest when connected to others. They live longer, healthier and richer lives because of it.

Today there was what we call the “meeting of the blind” in the hallway of our Senior Center.

3 out of our 4 blind Sanctuary residents were clearly having some sort of get together – perhaps it’s to teach us that no matter your age or disability, human or dog, it’s never to late to make new friends.

Hobbes, Stanley and Freddie wish you all a wonderful start to the week.

This morning, little Brownie was less than thrilled to be woken up early and taken to the Vet for her second of three heart-worm treatments.

The dirty looks and nasty barks at us were priceless! This little girl likes to sleep in, and in all fairness we awoke her from her beauty sleep so she has the right to be angry with us.

For those not aware, heart-worm treatments 2 and 3 are done back to back so the 3rd and final shot will be given early tomorrow morning – Brownie will really not be thrilled with 2 days in a row of loosing her beauty sleep.

We ask that you please send prayers and positive vibes her way for a successful outcome.
