Wally’s Second Wish: Help Save His Eyesight
Hicksville, NY • Pioneers for Animal Welfare Society, Inc.
Wally is just one year old, and he should have his whole life ahead of him. Instead, this sweet Rottweiler was on the euthanasia list at our overcrowded city shelter when Pioneers for Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) stepped in to save him. He did nothing wrong. He is pure love. Wally’s first wish was granted: he is still alive. Now we need your help to grant his second wish—to live pain-free and keep his vision. Wally urgently needs double entropion surgery. Entropion is a painful condition in which the eyelids roll inward, causing the fur and eyelashes to constantly rub against the cornea. This can lead to pain, excessive tearing, squinting, corneal ulcers, and potentially permanent damage to his vision if it is left untreated. Wally is such a young boy, and he deserves the chance to grow up without living in pain. He deserves to see the world around him, play, explore, and enjoy the long and happy life he should have had all along. But right now, Wally cannot have his surgery until the funds are raised. We don't want this young dog to have to wait any longer than necessary for the care that could give him relief and protect his vision. Please help us give Wally his second chance. Every donation brings him one step closer to surgery and a future where he can finally live the pain-free life he deserves. His first wish was to stay alive. His second wish is to live without pain and keep his vision. Please help Wally’s wish come true. ❤️
Blueberry Muffin
Blueberry Muffin Survived the Euthanasia List and Almost Died from an Obstruction
Hicksville, NY • Pioneers for Animal Welfare Society, Inc.
Blueberry Muffin was saved from the euthanasia list back in March by our rescue, PAWS (Pioneers for Animal Welfare Society) located in Long Island, NY. After everything he has already been through, we truly believed his future was finally looking bright. Now, just a few months later, Blueberry desperately needed us once again, and we could not let him down. Blueberry was recently hospitalized at an emergency veterinary hospital suffering from a serious blockage. His condition was painful, dangerous, and life-threatening, and he needed emergency surgery to remove the obstruction. We were able to put up some of the money to help with his surgery because we could not let him go without the care he needed. But that expense has added to the financial strain on our rescue, and we need your help to replenish those funds so we can continue saving other animals who need us. This sweet senior has already overcome so much. He survived being placed on the euthanasia list and was given a second chance through rescue. He deserves the opportunity to keep fighting and continue enjoying the life that was finally within reach. In a very short period of time, our rescue has stepped up to save so many vulnerable animals from the New York City's Animal Care Centers. Unfortunately, we have also been faced with one costly medical emergency after another, creating an enormous financial strain on our organization. No matter how difficult things become, we never want finances to be the reason a dog doesn't receive the care they need. That is why we are asking for help. If you can find it in your heart to make a donation to help us with the cost of Blueberry Muffin's emergency surgery, we would be forever grateful—and so would he. Every donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward the lifesaving care he urgently needs. Please help us give Blueberry Muffin the chance to recover, heal, and continue the life he was so close to losing. Thank you for standing with Blueberry Muffin when he needs it most.

Meet Sassy and Primo. Sadly, they and their dad lost their home, and they had no place to go. Pioneers for Animal Welfare Society, Inc stepped in at the last minute as they were headed to the local municipal shelter. They are currently in boarding but cannot remain there much longer. Sassy is a 10yr old female bulldog/pug mix, weighing about 35lbs. She has the cutest little strut! Sassy has a large mass that requires removal (see picture) cystotomy, canine spay with cystotomy and mass/tumor removal. She also has kidney stones which are causing her constant UTI's. She is scheduled for surgery at Long Island Spay and Neuter this week. PAWS is in desperate need of funds to cover Sassy's surgery. The estimate for the surgery is $2300.00 Sassy and her best friend Primo found themselves in boarding when their dad got divorced, was forced to leave the home and no one in the family would take them in. They are safe and together but scared and confused. Sassy is good with other pets and children. She is a spunky girl for her age and a real cuddle bug. We are a rescue that does not have a brick and mortar facility We are foster based and will assist in special cases; help seniors keep their pets but helping with medical expenses, transport to appointments, dog walking, cat care etc.
