This is Spirit.
Spirit is a beautiful female Doberman.
We rescued Spirit from a backyard breeder in Pennsylvania.
She and her siblings had been living outside on a front porch.
This was one of many litters of pups that were for sale, it was simply heartbreaking.
The pups were neglected.
Living outside through intense heat, rain, sleet, snow, wind, thunder and lightning.
When informed of the circumstances we drove to aid in rescue efforts.
Spirit was very scared.
We pulled Spirit to safety.
Spirit suffers from Pica.
Pica in dogs is a condition where the animal is compelled to ingest objects that are not food items.
Pica is a psychologically compulsive behavior issue for dogs, but it may also result from medical issues or poor nutrition.
Spirit needs to be watched carefully as she has and will swallow almost anything.
Spirit received much needed medical care and proper nutrition.
Since coming to Paws Give Me Purpose, Spirit has become the queen of the castle, leading our large pack of dogs.
Spirit has learned that humans can love.
We never gave up on Spirit.
Spirit never gave up on us.
Spirit has learned to love and trust humans.
Help us save other dogs like Spirit!

This is Mocha.
Mocha arrived at Paws Give Me Purpose in March.
For those not familiar, Mocha was seized by Animal Control from an extreme neglect/abuse situation.
Mocha has had an extremely difficult and traumatizing life.
Mocha has been receiving the best care possible, was gaining weight nicely and was doing well on her medications.
But a couple of days ago, Mocha took a turn for the worse.
Mocha stopped eating.
She found it more difficult to breathe and began coughing.
Mocha collapsed when trying to walk over to drink some water.
Mocha received emergency Veterinary care.
Mocha’s condition is extremely grave.
Mocha is now back here at Paws Give Me Purpose for supportive care.
We are feeding her, making sure she stays hydrated, and giving her new medications.
Mocha is stable and comfortable.
We will not let her suffer.
Paws Give Me Purpose will do everything possible to help her.
Which includes the expert medical care she needs and deserves.
Mocha is a fighter and as long as she is fighting we will continue to fight with her.
We will never give up on Mocha.
Even after the horrible life Mocha has endured, she is extremely loving and sweet.
Mocha is learning what real love is all about for the first time in her life.
Mocha has received a beautiful prayer blanket, pillow and teddy bear from Fur Angel Blessing Blanketeers.
On behalf of Mocha, we thank this organization and Ms. Wendy Legault for making the blanket and pillow especially for Mocha.
We hope and pray that the all the love and prayers you have sent will be answered.
We will never give up on Mocha.
Please help us help Mocha!
Mocha needs a miracle.
Strong prayers, love and support.
Donations are desperately needed.
Please continue to pray, share and donate to help Mocha heal her broken body and beautiful soul!

Don’t forget about Mocha.
Mocha still needs you.
Without YOU we cannot help those that need us most like her.
Mocha’s consult came back; she has lower airway disease and pneumonia.
There is a possible growth on the lung that is not identifiable.
A new course of antibiotic treatment has begun.
If she is not better within 2 weeks, we may need to see a specialist to flush out her lungs.
The Veterinarian also discovered a healing spinal fracture in addition to an old shoulder injury.
One of us, a human being, did this to Mocha.
This is the sad reality of the world we live in.
We must be Mocha’s voice, and the voices for all the innocent animals who cannot speak for themselves.
Paws Give Me Purpose will do whatever is necessary to help her, and give her everything she needs to have the life she truly deserves.
We will never give up on Mocha.
Please help us help Mocha!
Donations are desperately needed.
No amount is too small.
