A few days into the new year we received a plea for help from one of our shelter partners that was simply beyond comprehension. 

A dog running loose in Merchantville, NJ was hit by two separate cars. By some miracle, she survived and was taken to the shelter where she waited for her family to come and find her; unfortunately, that never happened. 

The shelter is no place for any dog to recover from such an experience and sadly as it turned out, her condition was worse than originally thought, and beyond the shelter’s ability to care for her. That is when they reached out to us for help. 

We have taken precious Ella, aka shelter name Elenora under our wing and we will not let her down. Ella is now safe here with us at Paws Give Me Purpose Sanctuary. She’s been through way too much, and she needed us. 

Ella has a broken pelvis and a badly bruised bladder. While the bladder heals she needs to have her urine expressed. She is comfortable, taking 3 different kinds of medication, but she is afraid, and rightfully so – we understand both her physical and emotional pain and will do everything in our power to make things better for her. 

Now we are turning to you, our wonderful supporters, for help. Paws Give Me Purpose relies on donations from people like you who are willing to spend their hard-earned money to help animals in dire need like Ella.

Ella needs our help! PLEASE consider making a donation to help us with her care, we cannot do this without you!

When we said Celine would be our last intake of 2024 – we lied.

While most were enjoying dinner out celebrating with family and friends, or drinking champagne on the sofa in their jammies with their beloved pets, we received a heartbreaking plea that could not be ignored.

At 16 years of age, this precious soul was surrendered to the shelter in horrific condition.

Scheduled to be euthanized at 6pm on New Years Eve, we could not allow his life to end without the love, care and dignity he deserves. We scrambled to find transportation at the last minute, and are very grateful to Philly ACCT volunteer Bridget for stepping up to do something extra special on New Year’s Eve.

Finn is now safe here at Paws Give Me Purpose Sanctuary! He is currently receiving necessary supportive care to keep him comfortable and loves being loved beyond measure.

Please open your hearts to help us with Finn’s care – we cannot do this without you!

Meet Celine! This tiny senior soul is our final 2024 intake; she’s here to tell you that getting old is most certainly not easy, she is still beautiful, inside and out, and she most certainly has value! 

Since her arrival to Sanctuary, Celine has been receiving the urgent medical care, rehabilitation, healthy diet, senior supplements and the TLC she needs and deserves. 

We have a very hard time understanding why anyone would have brought a dog like Celine into their lives only to throw her out onto the streets. 

Why? Did she get too old? After giving over 10+  years of love, loyalty and devotion to her humans, Celine still deserves to be loved and treated with dignity, and not tossed away like yesterday’s newspaper. 

For Celine, Paws Give Me Purpose Inc. Sanctuary is home. She is now safe, spoiled, and loved – as she should be! And although she suffers from some serious medical issues, she is a very happy girl. 

All dogs are beautiful, but senior dogs like little Celine have a way of touching our hearts in a way that changes everything.

Please donate to help us with Celine’s care – with the difficult medical cases that have recently walked through our doors, your support is critical more than ever!
