https://linktr.ee/Pawsandapurpose Meet Krystal: Animal Rescuer, Foster Mom & Animal Hero
On 15 rolling acres in Amity, Oregon, Krystal runs a small but mighty dog foster home that’s rescued over 350 animals — from starving pups and shy seniors to bottle baby kittens and even a day-old sheep. With 3 dogs, 4 cats, 4 goats, 2 horses, and 20+ chickens as her permanent crew, it’s never boring.

She specializes in giving love and safety to the vulnerable — especially pregnant moms and forgotten souls — and shares every chaotic, joyful moment on her new social media sites. Her new social media pages share the real stories: the mess, the magic, and the miracles

All volunteer. All heart. All in.
🐾 Follow for tail wags, tiny mews, and second chances. If you need a smile (or a furry face to cheer you up), you’ll find it here.

✏️Fun fact Friday✏️

When you open your home to a foster dog, you’re not only giving that dog a safe place to land—you’re also opening up space for another dog in need to be rescued.

You don’t have to adopt to save a life. Sometimes, you just have to make a little room🏡
Foster. Save a life. Make room for another. 💙

🐾We have 2 girls that still need their forever homes!🐾

🌸Meet Elle! 🌸

This sweet girl is still waiting for her forever family! 💙
She’s been living with a loving foster family for a little while now, where she’s had the chance to settle in, learn, and show just how wonderful she is. But as much as her foster family loves her, Elle deserves a forever home of her very own. 🏡

She’s house trained, loves other dogs, does great with cats, and is good with kids—especially older kiddos who can keep up with her puppy energy! She’s affectionate, curious, playful, and always ready for an adventure… followed by a good cuddle. 🥹

Please share and help us get Elle out of foster care and into her forever home! 🐾

🌼Meet Eve! 🌼

Eve is looking for a family to call her own! 🏡 This sweet, goofy girl was saved from the euthanasia list in California and brought to Oregon for a fresh start—and she’s been making the most of her second chance ever since. 💙

Eve is an adventurous little pup who loves to play, explore, and be part of whatever is going on. She’s house trained, great with other dogs and cats, and good with kids (older kiddos would be the best match for her puppy energy!).

She’s currently enjoying life with her foster family, but foster is only meant to be temporary. Now it’s Eve’s turn to find the people she gets to grow up with. 🥹🐾

🐾 Today is National Dog Day! 🐾

National Dog Day is celebrated annually on August 26 to honor dogs, promote adoption, and raise awareness about animal welfare. 💙

Today we’re celebrating every dog—the beloved family pets, the foster dogs waiting for their forever homes, the shelter pups who deserve a second chance, and all the dogs who have left paw prints on our hearts. 🐶

Give your pups a little extra love today, and if you’re looking to add a furry friend to your family, consider adopting or fostering. 🐾💙

Happy National Dog Day! 🥰

🐾 Meet Hammy! 🐾 UPDATE!!! Has been adopted!!!! Please message us if you’re interested in adopting and we have some other pups we think you may be interested in.

Meet Hammy! This handsome 4-month-old Pit Bull Terrier mix is friendly, playful, affectionate, and full of puppy fun! ❤️ He loves people, other dogs, walks, toys, car rides, treats, and learning new things. He already knows sit, down, and paw when rewarded with treats and is eager to learn more!

Hammy is an easygoing, quiet boy who loves being part of the family. He absolutely loves other dogs and does well with kids, but he is looking for a home with older children. He was previously adopted, but his puppy energy proved to be a little too much for the family’s young kids. We know he’ll thrive in a home where his playful energy is a better fit! ❤️

Hammy needs a cat-free home and is fully potty trained. He’ll go home with his current food, bed, leash & collar, and toys.

He’s ready for a family who can give him plenty of walks, playtime, training, and love. Could he be your new best friend?

Please keep sweet Tokyo in your thoughts and prayers. 🤍 He isn’t gaining weight and has been very lethargic, so he’s at our vet today undergoing diagnostic testing.

We’re hoping for some answers and, most importantly, the best for this sweet boy. Send him all the love and good thoughts today. 🐾🤍
