🐾 Hello, Dog Lovers! 🐾
We're Hope Paws Support Fund — a brand new, 100% volunteer-led 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Lake Forest, serving all of Orange County (founded Feb 2026).
We started because too many dogs are at risk and too many families say goodbye. We can't look away. We can't do this alone.
What we do & our 2026 goal:
🏥 Emergency vet care for 12 dogs — keep families together
🚪 Fund rescues to pull 24 dogs from high-risk shelters
🚗 Transport dogs to safety, any distance for 12 dogs
🏡 Build foster/adoptive home network
We need you!

Moop’s real name is Mulligan but he’s a man of many names, Mumpus, Poom and Beef just to name a few. He’s a 10 year old blue and tan miniature dachshund who’s turning 11 in three days!
