Recently, one of our shelter partners reached out to us about a tiny senior boy in dire need of a special kind of retirement home. Even though our bank account is depleted, we simply could not allow this boy to die due to his age and lack of space.
Meet Heath! This adorable 6 pound boy was tossed out like trash, found wandering the streets of Baltimore alone and frightened. The person who found him brought him to the shelter, but there was no chip found, so Heath sat and waited for his family to come and find him. Unfortunately, no one ever came.
In addition to a host of senior medical issues, Heath is also cryptorchid and we will need to perform an ultrasound in order to determine the location and condition of his testicles. There is a risk when a dog is cryptorchid that they may suffer from testicular cancer, and we are praying he is cancer free.
Heath is a bit skittish with humans, and we are not surprised – someone clearly broke his trust. However, once he gets to know you, he forms a quick bond and he has already begun to make many dog friends here at the Sanctuary.
While we hate to ask for money, we need your support to continue to provide all of our Sanctuary residents with lifetime care. Your generosity and kindness helps sustain Paws Give Me Purpose, making it possible for dogs with special needs like Heath to live in the safe, loving, family-like environment of our Sanctuary.
Donations are at an all time low, and the reality is, our expenses greatly outweigh the donations we receive. We are working hard to make sure that the dogs here in Sanctuary have all their needs met and that has to be our priority!
Please consider making a lifesaving gift today! All donations help us fight to give dogs like Heath the opportunity to live the best life possible. We cannot do this without YOU!
