Meet Phil

Mere hours from euthanasia, we received an urgent, heartbreaking code red from one of our shelter partners about an abandoned senior dog in horrific condition.

Found wandering on the cold streets of Philadelphia, helpless at a mere 3.5 pounds, the plea for help broke our hearts. We immediately took him under our wing and into our care.

Dogs love sincerely, with all their hearts, with all their soul and are unable to understand that human ‘love forever’ often has an expiration date and they are no longer wanted – but there is absolutely NO excuse for this level of neglect!

We have named this precious boy Phil and he has already shown us his desire for life, for love and this second chance.

Little Phil is intact and cryptorchid. He has no teeth, but does have an oronasal fistula on the right side of his mouth at the location of where one of his canines would be. He has significant bone recession in both maxilla and mandible. His undercoat is matted, his skin is very thin, covered in sores and a massive amount of flea dirt. He is a walking skeleton with hair – his body condition is extremely poor, a 2.5-3/9, with significant muscle wasting.

Phil is receiving the urgent medical care he needs and deserves; he will continue to receive only the best medical care and rehabilitation possible – we won’t settle for anything less. Our promise to Phil is to provide him with a safe and loving environment for the rest of his life and we are committed to keeping this promise.

We ask that you please consider making a donation to help us with Phil’s care – we cannot do this without YOU!

Meet Oreo

Yet another precious, senior soul thrown out to the freezing cold streets because he was no longer wanted by those who promised to love him forever. 

No one knows how long he was out there but it is clear by his appearance and medical conditions that he has been seriously neglected. 

Estimated somewhere between 15-17 years of age, we could not stand by and allow him to die alone in a shelter. Not only is quality of life important here at Paws Give Me Purpose, quality of death matters too. 

It may not be enough, but in the end we know that we are doing the right thing. Oreo’s life matters! 

Please open your hearts, help us fight to give Oreo the opportunity to live the best days of his life knowing nothing but love, kindness, compassion and dignity.  

Please donate to help us with little Oreo’s care. We cannot do this without YOU!
