X-Port PAWS

X-Port PAWS X-Port Paws is a Florida-based 501(c)3 nonprofit. Ours is an all-volunteer, non-profit.

Our focus is to pull dogs from shelters off the X-lists, which means dogs who are slated to to be killed, because they are too old, too pitie, too black or too behavioral. We came together to save dogs because there are too many wonderful dogs being destroyed when those dogs were, or still could be, someone’s beloved companion. The funds we raise provide transportation to safety, housing, vet care, food, supplies, and more....

Your love has “opened the door”🎵 for this doberman family !!
Geraldine and her 5 puppies have survived great odds to finally travel to their upstate NY rescue.
Geraldine arrived pregnant in a shelter in South Tx , delivered 7 puppies where all were exposed to Mycoplasma and corona virus. 2 of the puppies died. Then came the notice … they were to be killed the next day. After promoting them to other groups, we knew they had no chance other than X-Port Paws. Our wonderful rescue friend who runs a boarding facility in Stephenville took them in, nursed them back to health and today helped them to board a van to their destination. Sadly, 2 puppies have lost vision in just one eye. Poor health during pregnancy? Virus exposure? Genetics?
Boarding, vaccines, food, medicine all come with a big price tag. Why not just let them die in the shelter .. one might ask. But we believe that every good dog deserves a chance at a happy life. Please continue to support us so we can deliver more happiness & love.

Hello Dolly !!! She is working on getting HOME since she lost hers in Tx. Her home wasn’t 4star … living outside in the dirt. So we plan to make some upgrades.
Vaccines, spay and heartworm testing coming very soon. Then she will travel… somewhere she will find the soft bed she has always dreamed on the East coast. No fleas& ticks to scratch off. Just a home full of love and belly scratches.

Our friends in GA need some help. We are appalled daily of the cruelty to dogs and cats throughout much of this country. It is widespread and continuous.

Welcome to X-Port Paws . These 2 boys were part of pack of 9. The owner has lost her home and cannot take them. They were all originally strays that were dumped on her property one or two at a time. Now they run the fate of becoming strays all over again. If you can help any others, pm me.
