We were recently alerted by one of our shelter partners about a girl in dire need of help and just knew we had to step in. Little Lola was found abandoned on the streets in horrible condition; she was filthy, matted, has a large matted mass of hair hanging off her and severely matted feet. 

We have no idea what this little girl has been through, and just the sight of her is beyond heartbreaking. She deserves so much better – love, care, dignity, and we will give her the chance she deserves.

We could not let her down! She clearly has been through too much, and she needs us. We said yes to providing her with Sanctuary and our volunteer rushed to immediately pick her up from the shelter. 

Lola is now safe with Paws Give Me Purpose but her journey has just begun. Her life matters and we will do everything in our power to provide her with everything she needs and deserves.

All we know right now is that she is estimated to be 12+ years of age, has a severe heart murmur and her little face is sunken in because she is missing most of her teeth. She will need complete vetting, including a visit with our cardiologist for an echocardiogram. 

We can see first hand just how much she really wants this second chance more than anything – but we cannot make it happen without YOUR help. 

Please help us fight to give Lola the opportunity to live the best life possible in her remaining years. We cannot do this without YOU!

Please keep this precious girl in your prayers. We will keep you updated.

On this Thankful Thursday, our beautiful little Sanctuary resident Gertie says hello. Gertie has lived here in Sanctuary for almost 2 months now and despite facing health challenges, she has an amazing spirit. 

Gertie is a very happy, spunky, little girl who has a great appetite, enjoys playtime with the other dogs and a nice lap to sit on. She does tire easily and frequently naps, but once she gets up she is ready to get moving once again. 

Her favorite pastime is snacking on gullet sticks, and because she values them so much she also hoards them under the mattress. No one can get near her bed, not human, and most certainly not other dogs unless she’s off doing another activity. And once we are done cleaning and changing all the bedding, she starts her collection all over again.

Simply enjoying something as simple as a gullet stick is one of the best moments in Gertie’s life that might have never been. 

Dogs like Gertie inspire us here at Paws Give Me Purpose to become even better human beings. Because of supporters like you, we have been able to give Gertie and all the dogs living here in Sanctuary the best gift possible, a new life.

As our rescuing continues, Paws Give Me Purpose welcomes our newest resident, the adorable Shaggy to Sanctuary. 

Alone, heartbroken and blind, this precious senior found himself wandering the streets of Baltimore and was taken to a shelter where he sat afraid and confused, waiting for his family to come and find him; unfortunately, that never happened. 

Did he just get too old to be loved? Whatever the case, this 15 year old soul was clearly tossed out like a piece of trash and sadly seen as not deserving of dignity.

Shaggy is a 7 pound Silky Terrier who is not only blind, but he suffers from regenerative anemia, has a serious heart murmur, and as if that’s not enough, he has some very bad arthritis. 

The most heartbreaking part to us is that this sweet boy has absolutely suffered for a very long time, yet even though he is blind, he looks up at us with hope in his eyes.

Above all else, we at Paws Give Me Purpose put quality of life first, and Shaggy most certainly has shown us his desire for life, for love and this second chance. 

Our mailbox and voicemail are full, the requests for Sanctuary are nonstop. It is heartbreaking work and we work 24/7 to make sure these deserving souls receive the second chance they deserve for no matter how long they are with us. As long as there are dogs like Shaggy in the world, we will be here, fighting for them.

We cannot continue to do so without YOUR help. We are truly just scraping by and honestly are not sure how much longer we can do this. 

Without YOU we can no longer help dogs like Shaggy who suffer at the hands of careless, heartless people who treat them like objects that can be simply discarded when they are done with them – so please give.
