It always amazes me how trusting animals are after being mistreated and abandoned. Equally amazing is your patience in gathering them up with the gentleness that you do. The wonderful change in their demeanor knowing they’re safe and loved. Thank you for doing this. Paying a small monthly amount to keep the rescues happening. A small price to pay.

[@user-gg6lr2lc1v]

Agree❤❤❤ Humans r the real animals

[@wendyelsey7765]

I do too, these animals are so defenceless out in all climates cold/heat/ rain and need lovely rescuers/and fosters and vets and eventually great loving forever homes. It is so good to see these rescues take place.

[@dcwatashi]

You are making assumptions how do you know this dog did not escape the backyard got hit by a car didn’t really know where it was and couldn’t find its way home. It’s peoples fault for not getting their animals microchipped

[@ruthcallahan3122]

I donate now 3 or more years for Hope 4 Paws.I will not stop doing this,happy to see where my Money goes.

[@philippe1056]

Yes but they don't trust everyone. Must be a wizard.🤩 

[@LtRee96se]

I have a donation taken right out of my monthly disablilty check. I never even miss the money, because I get to see the wonderful work done by Hope for Paws. I pray that their good work continues until there are no abandoned pets.

[@LtRee96se]

Love sent to Hope for Paws. You all are just wonderful.

[@hopeforpaws]

Thank you so much @@LtRee96se - the dogs and cats here really appreciate it! ❤ ❤ ❤

[@LtRee96se]

@@hopeforpaws I just love you all and I love all the animals. If I lived in the area, I would be fostering or adopting.

You are precious ❤

[@lotusqueen4233]

I've said this many times, some humans don't deserve the loyalty and love of a pet. Breaks my heart. Thank you for all you to save these precious little lives.

[@OriginalNethead]

This doggie would have been a candidate for a big bowl of nice smelly chicken soup and a drop trap. Glad he's safe now.

[@anneterry3660]

I am on a fixed income yet I know my a monthly donation to Hope for Paws is a gift to life. Rescues like Hope for Paws only work with small contributions, $5 is great because most of us can give $5--we have only to look in our grocery carts and realize just one or two items for purchase means there is room to make a donation and save a life even with small incomes. Those small donations when we get together an participate form a stream that keeps Hope for Paws afloat.

[@hollywoodcheremonkey]

The dog had no chance of escape facing Eldad’s ways and surrendered even without using a snare! Amazing!

[@UC-Jf_YAvw4Apbz-SAVM3p2A]

each time HFP rescue a dog, i just wonder, how did such a loving thing end up on the streets. i cant live a day without them, the only thing that brings so much joy and love. whats wrong with humans who abandoned their pets

[@scc6454]

He's happy he gave up and let you catch him, I'll bet! Amazing that he could walk with a broken pelvis.

[@karenduncan6004]

Poor little guy! Im glad that patience and hamburgers finally did the trick. He is so happy to feel safe.

[@quokkapirquish6825]

What a beautiful nature that dog has. My eyes welled up when Eldad cuddled him.

[@thulekovish8188]

I think when pets are in pain, they tend to shy away from strangers. Skellington wanders the streets, emaciated with a broken pelvis and a broken tail. No wonder. Thank you, HFP, for saving his life. Hope this cute and gentle dog will end up with a loving family.

[@edwigcarol4888]

Must be an instinct that has been kept by dogs too. An injured animal does not ask for help, but tends to hide its pain or sickness in front of others animals or humans.. This makes it difficult for us sometimes to guess that our pet is in trouble. My cats did that till it was too late 💔

[@kalimmullgrav6623]

I feel sorry for poor Skeleton because seeing him like that is just so sad and heartbreaking 🥺💔.

[@dawnwalus6587]

Thx Eldad for helping this angel unbelievable that all the waste in this country and there is still starvation amount people and animals!

[@herdisweins943]

I hope, he soon finds the loving home, he deserves. Once again you made me proud to be a monthly donor. xoxo all Hope for 🐾 angels 💞 💞 💞

[@auntyharry]

100% agree. My sentiments exactly. 💜

[@_pink_fire_838]

Thank you for saving Skellington!

[@sueczerniak1266]

What a beautiful boy. Australia's quarantine laws make international adoption very difficult and expensive, otherwise....... I hope Skellington finds a good forever home soon.❤

[@johntuffy5721]

A persons character can be judged by how they treat those less fortunate ...... thank you for what you do 😀

[@daphneloose5880]

Skellington is adorable!! I am sure that someone will fall in love with this sweet pup. it won't take long for him to find his forever home!!

[@kathleenryan8545]

How true is the saying, Patience is a virtue! I cannot believe you were able to pick him up and take him to your car! I think he sensed in you a friend from the start! You were not catching him, he was catching you! Well done!

[@helenraj6889]

Eldad has magic 💘💘💘spell for skelliton to surrender and be carried into car. Thank you for being patient and kind to these poor souls. God bless you 💜

[@RichardCox0]

Thank you so much for all that you do! My heart always breaks for these lost animals. He deserves all the cheeseburgers

Oooh that poor dog so unkempt in that heat, no water or shelter...his name skellington 🦴 🦴 😅so happy he was rescued ❤❤❤❤❤❤

What a wonderful ending. This poor little doggie is now going to be loved and taken care of hopefully forever

[@marie-clauderecchia4531]

Skellington is so cute even with serious injuries he is so nice and so playfull He must have felt safe with Eldad and Katie after the buble bath and the organization who has fostered him He deserves a nice loving forever home ❤🐕

[@ls-kk4pq]

Hi chew amazed at the capacity for mom even when a dog has been abused or abandoned. Whoever gets this dog will have the absolute best little soul ever!

[@robbernath]

For this furry boy to be that thin and survive being hit by a car is truly a miracle. Glad to know his surgery was relatively minor, though he will probably miss his tail a little. Thank you for seeing his rescue through, Eldad. Best to you and the HFP team. 👍

[@carolynsmith4936]

Thank you so much for rescuing him for a chance at a good life. All of you do such good work and really care. It breaks my heart when I see these videos , they do not ask for what mean people do to them God bless you.

[@redcatt6272]

Another sad story but fortunately you have been called by a good samaritan and saved this poor dog 🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@cristinawood9001]

He is SO cute! Worth over two hours! He has a long journey ahead of him but he'll get there and before we know it he'll get adopted

[@philoctetes_wordsworth]

Poor little Skelly, who knows how long he's been out on the streets lost and/or abandoned. He's so sweet, may he find a loving home asap!

[@kimmarievan-ever6599]

What a sweet guy..must have been in so much pain yet never got aggressive..goodness he was so skinny..I doubt whether this boy would have lasted much longer out there on his own. Bless you all for what you do..he is a curie and I'm sure he will be chosen to be someone's fur baby soon. 👏👍🙏💞🙏✝️🇺🇸

[@beatricedavids2791]

Finally...good life are awaiting you good boy❤that was easy after all your efforts, Eldad🎉🎉🎉

Thanks for rescuing him. Hope he finds a loving home.

[@renferal5290]

I'm amazed that he was able to get about as well as he did with a broken pelvis

[@andreawalker7138]

You can tell Skellington wanted to trust someone and to be loved. I'm so grateful he is safe and happy now. Thanks HFP!!

[@MelissaPapke]

Oh, the poor little lad is so skinny! And the fact that he was getting around that well with a broken tail and pelvis is just amazing. Eldad, thank you for taking so much time being gentle with him.

[@patgeh794]

Resilience, thy name is dog. Thank you, HFP, for all your patience and kindness!❤

[@RH-ds4wk]

What a beautiful rescue, Eldad, your patient long walk paid off - to see the sad look in his eyes change so fast to one of trust and playfulness was just magic, hurray. Am sure he will find a great home soon.

[@pepeboy234]

Your patience paid off. I love that you were able to simply pick him up rather than going through the trauma of being snared. So great!

[@Tucholsky59]

Skellington hat zwar keinen Schweif mehr, dafür hat er ein neues, besseres Leben bekommen. Und ich habe selten so ein liebes Hundegesicht gesehen. Well done Eldad, well done 🙂

[@cycleSCUBA]

Another mercy rescue by Eldad and his trusty HFP Cheeseburger! Donation made. Will be lovely to see Skellington in a few months to see how he's doing. 🐕❤️
