Little Bella, aka our Beanie Baby, is just stopping in to say hello to all our wonderful followers and supporters. She is here to tell you that getting old is most certainly not easy, but she is still beautiful, inside and out, and she most certainly has value!
For those not familiar, this little old lady arrived at our Sanctuary in December of 2020 suffering from a host of major medical and behavioral issues. You can refresh your memory of her arrival by heading over to:

After a great deal of rehabilitation, ongoing medical care, a healthy diet, senior supplements and the TLC she needed and deserved, Bella is feeling fabulous!
We have a very hard time understanding why anyone would have brought a dog like Bella into their lives only to release her out on the street. This tiny old lady is not disposable, she was someone’s family member; a living breathing animal with feelings just like you and me. Have we as human beings lost our ability to care?
Was it too much trouble to at least take her to a shelter? This poor girl was found wandering the streets, and when taken to the nearest shelter by animal control, no one bothered to even come looking for her. What happened to Bella is a clear message that she was no longer wanted.
Why? Did she get too old? After giving 13 years of love, loyalty and devotion to her humans, Bella still deserves to be loved and treated with dignity, and not to be tossed away like yesterday’s newspaper.
For Bella, Paws Give Me Purpose Sanctuary is home and she is 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 have a way of touching our hearts in a way that changes everything.
