More about Paige Elway

According to People Magazine, Paige Elway is also a dog welfare advocate who has rescued multiple dogs and frequently posts to promote dogs in need of homes.

She further supported this cause in 2014 by co-hosting a charity event called Bowl 'n' Bark in Aurora, Colorado. This raised $140,000 for the Humane Society of the South Platte Valley, per The Denver Post.

"I love dogs — all animals, really — and a woman who works for John had told us about the Humane Society of the South Platte Valley. We’d been donating to it for a couple of years, and when plans were announced for a new facility, we decided to do something on a larger scale, something that would not just raise money but bring more attention to adopting shelter animals and the importance of spaying and neutering," Paige told th outlet.

She continued:

"We wanted to emphasize that you can get wonderful, loyal and loving companions by adopting from a shelter like the Humane Society of the South Platte Valley … that you don’t have to buy from a pet store whose dogs often come from puppy mills. I can’t even bear to think about puppy mills."

Together, Paige and John have also supported local Denver organisations, including the Boys and Girls Club of Metro Denver and the Barbara Davis Centre. They were also awarded the High Hopes Tribute Award at the 29th Annual Carousel Ball in 2015.

Elway premiered on Netflix on December 22.
