We rescue and re-home dogs age 6 and up.
We save older dogs left at shelters; dogs whose owners died; dogs whose families came apart.
In the past 20 years, we've helped over 1,000 dogs find new homes.

ABOUT OUR SENIOR DOGS
Ages 6 and up – Old enough not to chew your shoes; young enough to be great companions.Grateful for a second chance and experienced in life's lessons – Dogs that know how to be part of a family
Homeless – All dogs are displaced from their homes due to a traumatic event: an owner's illness, death, a move, a foreclosure, etc.
WE DON'T HAVE A SHELTER – All dogs live in foster homes. At adoption time, you receive a full report on your dog.
All dogs go through a 2-week trial adoption in your home – Not the right dog after all? The dog comes back to us – no harm, no foul. A perfect match means that much to us!
