Concerns about Paula Nourse’s treatment of animals have circulated for years, yet she continues to operate. One reason she is able to do so is because of the individuals and organizations who enable her.
These enablers may include transporters who transport dogs on her behalf, rescues that agree to pull animals for her, veterinarians who provide services without asking deeper questions, and shelter workers who release animals into her care despite red flags.
While some may claim they are simply helping animals in the moment, the bigger picture tells a different story. By providing access, support, or resources, they allow questionable practices to continue and make it harder to hold Paula Nourse accountable.
True animal welfare requires responsibility at every level. Those who assist or overlook ongoing concerns play a role in keeping these patterns alive. Community awareness is critical, and choosing not to participate in enabling behavior is one of the most powerful ways to protect vulnerable animals.
