Special Hearts

Paws Give Me Purpose Inc. does not rescue for politics, fortune, or fame. We give the abused, neglected and the most unwanted souls a life; a chance to be loved, cherished and to learn that not all humans are unkind. 

The work we do here is not glamorous nor is it for the faint of heart, but it is truly the most rewarding part of canine rescue to us.

We are a licensed, State of NJ, no-kill, cage free Sanctuary. All of the dogs in our care live in a home setting. At Paws Give Me Purpose, care is provided 24/7. Our mission, to provide a bridge of care that supports senior, hospice and special needs dogs so they can live their lives to the fullest for no matter how long they are with us. 

We work closely with our Veterinary team to maintain a good quality of life for our Sanctuary residents and while we may often deal with heartbreak, helping dogs who no one else stepped up for during their time of need – the lives of those who otherwise would not have been is a part of our purpose.

Our days are filled with back-breaking hard work, painfully dry and cracked hands, moments of happiness, sadness and every emotion in between. In truth, this is emotionally painful work and truly takes people with special hearts. 

100% of all donations, big and small, goes directly toward the care of our Sanctuary residents; no one here gets paid, and not one penny is used toward operational expenses including maintenance of the building – we pay for all those expenses out of our own pockets. 

Although our staff is dedicated and knowledgeable, extra helping hands and hearts are necessary for the important work in which we are involved and our volunteers are the best of the best – some of the most special people in the world. How could they not be especially when the dogs that come through our doors are extra special themselves.

“Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.” – Elizabeth Andrew

Pictured above is one of our newest Sanctuary residents Chester. And although we have not had the chance to formally introduce his arrival, we can tell you he is so very special and deserving of this second chance at life. Stay tuned for his official arrival post. 

Sponsor Tofu

Happy Tongue Out Tuesday from precious Tofu!

For Tofu, Paws Give Me Purpose Sanctuary is home. She hoped for life, for love, and someone to make everything alright.

Senior dogs with special needs like Tofu are often abandoned by those who promised to love them forever on the streets and in shelters. Because of you, she is alive today and will be loved and cared for the rest of her life.

Tofu and all our other Sanctuary residents need people with extra-big hearts to help us give them their second chance at life – that’s where you come in.

Please consider becoming Tofu’s Sanctuary sponsor! Your love and kindness ensures that we are able to provide the specialized care Tofu needs and continue to offer sanctuary to others.

Welcome Tofu

One of our shelter partners reached out to us about a tiny senior girl in dire need of a special kind of retirement home; they knew Paws Give Me Purpose would be the right place. 

Once the love of someone’s life, precious Tofu found herself at a shelter when the only family she had ever known suddenly passed away. Her whole world was turned upside down leaving her with no one to care for her special needs. 

We will never really know everything about Tofu’s life, but we do know that no senior should spend their days in a shelter. She deserves and will receive only the very best medical care, and will spend her golden years surrounded by nothing but love and happiness. 

While we hate to ask for money, your generosity and kindness helps sustain Paws Give Me Purpose, making it possible for dogs with special needs like Tofu to live in the safe, loving, family-like environment of our Sanctuary.

Please consider making a lifesaving gift today! We cannot do this without YOU!

Sponsor Winter

Precious Winter is popping by on this fabulous Friday to say hello and let you all know that she is still in search of her very own Sanctuary sponsor.

Winter and her sister Autumn were rescued from a hoarding situation, and she dreams of the day that all the abused, neglected, and unwanted animals out there have a place to go where they feel safe and loved just as she does now.

Join our community of monthly donors and be a hero for our Sanctuary Residents. Your donations directly impact how many dogs we can save! Only with your help can we say yes to more special needs dogs like Winter.

Monthly donors and sponsors are our best friends and sustainers. They help each animal that comes to us with immediate and sometimes life-threatening needs.
