“Paws For Charity” is a fundraising drive to help Virginia Beach’s Hope For Life Rescue.
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Throughout the year, the Hope for Life Rescue in Virginia Beach transforms the lives of dogs and cats in tough situations. They take in animals in the most need and help them recover and find their forever homes.
“Most of the time, every animal we take in has to see the vet right away,” said Assistant Director Martha Wilkins. “Because we take in such difficult cases, a lot of neglected and abused animals.”
One such case was Levi, a puppy Hope For Life took in that was part of an animal cruelty case.
Levi had been starved and abused. He still bears the scars, particularly on his face where he had his snout taped shut.
Fortunately, Levi did not lose faith in humans despite the cruelty he faced and was able to overcome everything that happened to him.
Hope For Life said that while Levi recovered in a foster home, he caught the eye of a wonderful family who eventually took him on a home visit and eventually adopted him.
