Two tiny puppies. Two unimaginable fights for survival. And one urgent need: $6,350 to provide lifesaving care.

Lolli is just four months old, but she’s already endured more pain than most dogs will in a lifetime. She came to us from a heartbreaking situation—living outdoors with a severely broken leg that had been left untreated. There was no choice but to amputate.

Just days after surgery, when she should have been healing, Lolli began showing symptoms of deadly parvovirus.

Somehow, this little fighter refused to give up.

Today, Lolli is finally on the mend. Tripod and thriving, she’s showing us every day that resilience can come in the smallest, bravest packages.

But she’s not alone in this fight.

Six-week-old Coffee Bean, safe in her foster home for weeks, suddenly began showing signs of parvo as well. We may never know where it came from—but we do know how dangerous it is. Thankfully, her siblings remain healthy, and Coffee Bean is responding well to treatment.

But her journey isn’t over.

Coffee Bean is now experiencing partial paralysis in her back end. We are hopeful it’s temporary—but she urgently needs a full medical workup to understand what’s happening and how to help her walk, run, and live the life every puppy deserves.

Between emergency surgeries, parvo treatment, hospitalization, and the diagnostics still ahead, their is expected to reach $6,350.

We didn’t hesitate to say yes to these puppies when they needed us.

Now we’re asking you to say yes for them, too.

Every donation—no matter the size—directly supports Lolli and Coffee Bean’s fight to survive and heal. Your support means pain relief, answers, recovery, and the chance at a future filled with love instead of suffering.

💛 Please donate today.
💛 Share their story.
💛 Be part of their second chance.

Because they’ve already fought so hard. They shouldn’t have to fight alone.

Operation Paws for Homes is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization devoted to the rescue, rehabilitation and placement of dogs and cats who have overcome great odds and deserve wonderful, caring forever homes. These dogs and cats are rescued from overcrowded shelters in the southern region of the United States, including South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, and Virginia. We partner with local shelters as needed. We also rescue a few international dogs by partnering with shelters and rescues in India and Kosovo who rescue dogs from dangerous and deplorable conditions .

Our organization is volunteer-powered by a dedicated group of animal lovers who have seen the horrors and sad fate of animals who find themselves abandoned and left to fend for themselves in the world. At the rural shelters, the staff faces everyday challenges of few adopters, underdeveloped spay/neuter programs in their counties, and (in many instances) local residents who do not understand the need to spay/neuter or engage in rescue activities. With limited resources and few adoptions locally, the shelters are forced to put down a significant percentage of their animals.

After visiting these facilities and seeing the heartache on the faces of the shelter staff and the animals in their care, we started OPH to help give these deserving dogs and cats a second chance. We have some of the best shelter and rescue partners! There is no better feeling than pulling out of the shelter’s parking lot with 25 lucky dogs and cats who are being given a new lease on life! In doing so - we give hope to these amazing Shelter Partners that the animals they have cared for will find forever homes. In fact, part of our mission is to support these facilities through donations guidance, and resources.

OPH does not operate a shelter or have a physical location. We rely on foster families who open their homes to give love and attention to each dog while it waits for a forever home. In addition, we partner with wonderful boarding facilities who care for our rescue animals. Through the foster program and our partners, we learn about each dog and its needs. These animals have been through a lot and it may take days or weeks to allow their personality to completely unfold . We strive to provide as many details as possible to potential and future adopters which increases the likelihood of a good match for each dog and family.

OPH is 100% donor funded. We receive no funding from federal, state, or county governments. As a result, we rely on the generous donations from our supporters and the adoption fees for each dog in order to save the dogs and cats in need that join our rescue organization. In addition, we have a hard working Grant Team who reaches out to organizations who provide grants for rescue animals. Without these vital funds, we could not continue our mission to make a positive difference in the lives of the animals - and the people - who we save. Together We Rescue.
