This is Paco.
Paco was rescued from a hoarding situation in South Carolina.
Paco was just 6-months-old.
Paco was one of many hoarded chihuahuas.
Paco’s owner was discovered to be a hoarder upon his death.
The home was full of trash and feces.
The dogs were tiny and emaciated.
Paco and his siblings were pulled to safety.
Paco arrived at Paws Give Me Purpose hating all humans.
Paco had many behavioral and medical issues.
Paco received much needed medical care, proper nutrition and TLC.
Paco was a fighter, but unfortunately not all of his siblings were.
Paco was one of the only to survive.
We never gave up on Paco.
Paco was a biter, not a lover.
Paco would try to bite everyone, especially men.
Paco’s neglect left mental scarring.
Paco lives in sanctuary and has learned to trust.
Until today, Paco trusts only one human the most, his rescuer.
Paco is slowly learning that humans can love.
Paco still fears strangers.
We never gave up on Paco; Paco never gave up on us.
Paco is learning to have faith in humans.
Help us save other dogs like Paco!

Shattered Hearts
Our hearts are shattered after discovering this morning that Mocha has crossed the Rainbow Bridge last night peacefully in her sleep.
Mocha came from a horrible past of abuse and neglect; she was a fighter and we fought along right beside her. We did everything we possibly could to help her on this journey.
In the last few months that she was here in sanctuary, she knew love and finally learned that not all humans are unkind.
Thank you all so much for caring and for being a support to us during this time.
Remember And Honor
To those who courageously gave their lives, and those who bravely fight today, both human and canine…
THANK YOU 🇺🇸 from all of us at Paws Give Me Purpose Inc.
Enjoy this heartwarming moment as an Animal Control Officer serenades homeless dogs at a shelter — and they have the sweetest reaction to his music.
