Magical Unicorns do exist, thanks to A Purposeful Rescue. This nonprofit, committed to saving dogs from high-kill shelters in Los Angeles, takes in the most overlooked pets like seniors and intense medical cases. In this episode, CEO and founder Hillary Rosen talks to us about the first time she visited an animal shelter, the bruja powers that give her the ability to see the best in dogs, and what pack mentality really feels like. With over 90K followers on Instagram, APR shares the journey from shelter dog to "magical unicorn" in a meaningful, transparent way that draws people in and makes them want to stick around. What a gift they are to animal rescue.
