🐾 Meet Oreo! (Please read before applying – Oreo needs a special adopter)

Oreo is a 9-year-old chihuahua with a big personality and an even bigger heart for his person. Sadly, he was surrendered when his family moved and couldn’t take him along. Originally given as a “gift,” he wasn’t truly treated like one. But here’s the truth: Oreo IS a gift — for the right person.

Oreo is your classic chi: loyal to the core, deeply bonded to his human, and not much of a fan of strangers. Once you’ve earned his trust, you’ll have a companion for life. Because of his strong guarding instincts, Oreo currently needs sedation for vet visits, and we’re seeking an adopter willing to work with a vet behaviorist and trainer to support him.

What Oreo Needs:

✅ A patient, dog-savvy adopter
✅ Someone willing to explore training + medication support
✅ A home with no children
✅ Someone who will respect and protect his boundaries
✅ Commitment to feeding wet food for life (no teeth, but eats like a champ!)

The Details:
• Age: 9 years
• Neutered
• No teeth
• Good with dogs
• Tolerates cats (doesn’t chase, just prefers his space)
• Currently needs sedation for vet visits

Oreo may not be the easiest dog, but he is absolutely worth it. With the right home and support, he can finally have the stable, loving life he deserves.

Josie Update! 💚🐾

Our sweet girl Josie saw both a dermatologist and ophthalmologist this week. We learned she has a healed eye ulcer and dry eye, which means she’ll need lifelong eye drops and lubrication to stay comfortable. Unfortunately, her skin issues remain a mystery but we’re working with internal medicine next to dig a little deeper.

She’s already racked up thousands in specialty vet visits (and counting), but Josie is so worth it. After spending the first 8 years of her life as a puppy mill mama, she deserves nothing less than the most pampered golden retirement.

If you’re able, please consider donating to give Josie the care and comfort she deserves in her golden years.

Dot has found her forever 💚🥳

Our sweet Dot has officially been adopted! She now lives in Aurora with a wonderful family who was so excited to welcome her home. Her new mom works from home, which means Dot will get to do what she loves most - lounging in cozy spots and simply being near her people.

We’re overjoyed knowing Dot will spend her golden years surrounded by love, comfort, and companionship. Happy tails, sweet girl 🐾

ADOPT DOT! 💚

Meet Dot - a lovely old gal with a heart full of love and a nose for good smells. Dot came to us after her former family brought home a new puppy, and, well… she wasn’t thrilled about the constant nipping and non-stop energy. Who can blame her? As a lady in her golden years, puppy shenanigans aren't her favorite. However, she does love a good tug of war!

At around 14 years old, Dot is well past the chaos stage and firmly planted in her mellow era. She’s settled in beautifully at her foster home with three other dogs, but she does like to chase cats, so a cat-free home would be best.

Dot is the definition of easygoing. She’s content to hang out around the house with her people, bask in some sunshine, and enjoy a short daily walk (with lots of time to sniff, of course). She’s gentle, affectionate without being clingy, and just a total sweetheart.

She’s about 50 lbs, fully housebroken, and will even let you know when she needs to go out by standing at the door and giving a single, low “woof.” Her recent vet check gave her a clean bill of health, with only mild arthritis and dry skin, both under control and manageable with glucosamine joint supplements and daily fish oil.

Dot is ready for her forever home - a soft spot to land, a warm place to rest, and someone to love her through her golden years. Could that be you?

Two weeks ago, we got the sweetest surprise. A local teen decided - entirely on their own - to raise money for senior dogs in need. They chose to donate to our rescue, worked hard to spread the word, and ultimately raised over $2,000.

Their generosity is a powerful reminder: you don’t need to be a certain age, have a ton of experience, or have it all figured out to make a real difference in the lives of senior dogs.

Every act of kindness matters—and it truly changes lives.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. 🐾 💚

Let’s give a warm welcome to Dot! 💚

Dot was dumped at the shelter after her family brought home a new puppy and she wasn’t having it. And honestly? Who can blame her. When you’re a stunning 14-year-old super senior, getting jumped on and nipped at by a hyper puppy, isn’t exactly your idea of a good time.

So what did her family do? They kept the puppy…and took their senior dog to the shelter.

What can I say? Not my kind of people. 🤷‍♀️

But thanks to our incredible fosters, Mat and Molly, Dot is safe and settling into her cozy new foster home. She’ll be headed to the vet next week for a full senior wellness exam to get her all checked out. We could really use your support for her upcoming vet care.

If you’d like to donate to Dot’s care, here’s how:

Every dollar goes directly toward helping senior dogs like Dot live out their golden years in comfort and love. Thank you for being part of Dot’s second chance. 🐾

We are sad to share the passing of hospice pup Max. 💔

Max came with some medical issues and was dealing with two large and painful ulcers under both eyes. We got him in quickly for a double enucleation, and afterwards he got some pep back in his step!

However, lately, Max's abilities and quality of life were taking a turn, and we knew it was time to let him go. Hospice fosters have a special place in our hearts, and we're honored to have care for Max in his final days.

Rest in peace, buddy 💚 Run free. 🐾

ADOPT HONEY! 💚🐾 (https://petsearch.wagtopia.com/search/pet?id=2296844&name=Honey)

Meet Honey, a sweet and loving 12-year-old black Poodle Maltese mix who’s ready to find his forever home! He has a few special needs, which will require a special adopter. Could that be you?

Things You Should Know About Honey:

💚 Vision & Hearing: Honey was born blind due to a congenital eye deformity and needs the gunk from his eyes wiped off daily. He is also hard of hearing, which is typical for a senior dog, but he can hear louder and higher-pitched sounds.

💚 Diet: Honey is on a special kidney diet that he will need to continue for the rest of his life to maintain his health and feel his best.

💚 House Training: Honey is not house trained and does mark in the house. Wearing a belly band helps with this, and he’s good about going outside when on a regular schedule. With consistency, he’ll continue to thrive.

💚 Temperament: Despite his special needs, Honey is a calm, social, and affectionate dog who loves cuddles and basking in the sun. He gets along well with both dogs and cats, making him a great companion for multi-pet households, though he would also do well on his own.

Honey is looking for a home that will provide him with the special care and love he deserves in his golden years. His calm demeanor and affectionate nature will brighten any home.

If you’re ready to open your heart to a sweet senior pup who will be a loyal and loving companion, Honey might just be the perfect fit for you!

Midnight is ADOPTED! 💚 🐾 🎉

From a rough start to a forever home full of love, Midnight’s journey has been one of resilience, healing, and hope.

After years of neglect, this sweet 8-year-old Cocker Spaniel was surrendered to a vet clinic, unsure of what the future held. But with the right medical care, plenty of TLC, and the love of his foster family, he blossomed into the affectionate, happy companion he was always meant to be. And now, his story has the happiest ending of all—he’s officially adopted!

Midnight’s new parent is a veterinarian, meaning he’ll always be in the best hands. Not only does he have a loving home, but he’ll also receive the care and attention he deserves for the rest of his life—a far cry from where he started.

From neglected senior to cherished companion, Midnight’s story is a beautiful reminder that every senior dog deserves a second chance.

Happy life, Midnight! 💚 ✨
