I am here to help. If your are considering adopting and have questions about it, ask. If you are interested in volunteering , talk to me. If you are a rescuer and need resourses, ask. If you need advice about animals or just life in general...I can try my best to help you. It may appear that this page is all about the animals. To a certain degree, it is. But my motivations are very simply based on the idea that love is an unstoppable force..If I can use my heart to help you, I will. MESSAGE METaylor was a terrier mix around 2 years old. I had the pleasure of hanging out with him during a weekend event in South Philly.He was willing to love and eager to please, this happy dude would Have made a great family dog. His claim to fame Was his elvis smirk,which should have been seen in person because we couldn't get it on film. Happy to take direction... his eagerness to learn was almost matched by his ultra-super-mega cuteness. He was singing "jailhouse rock" in the shelter waiting for a human to adopt him. But that never happened. For whatever reason he was euthanized. I leave this up to remind you that these animals are truly in dire need. If someone would have opened their heart and let Mr Taylor in he would still be alive. He is now a statistic. One of possibly 10,000 or more animals that will never make it out alive. In adopting a shelter animal, you make them safe: you save their life, and gain a faithful friend. The eager and willing heart contained within Taylor is the commonality of these shelter animals.

(below) OSCAR got adopted!!!!...Thank you Kim!!!
..I would like a warm bed while I am waiting for my forever home. The floor here at the shelter is hard and a Kuranda bed would enable me to have a soft, elevated bed to lie on during long nights. Some of my friends already have a donated bed, but I don't have one yet...
If you would like to help and donate one to Philly Paws for me I would grrrrrately appreciate it!
