November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month

A gentle reminder that some of the greatest love stories begin with a gray muzzle and a soft, knowing gaze.

Senior pets often come with hearts full of gratitude and personalities already fully bloomed. They’re past the puppy chaos, content with cozy naps, slow strolls, and being by your side. Many have spent years giving love—now they’re simply waiting for someone to finally give it back.

When you adopt a senior pet, you’re not just giving them a home … you’re giving them a soft place to land, a warm bed, and a chance to spend their golden years wrapped in comfort and care. And in return? You receive the quiet, deep, loyal kind of love that only an older soul can give.

If you’re thinking about adding a furry family member, consider opening your heart to a senior pet this month. They may not have as much time—but they have just as much love to give.

Adopt a senior. Change a life. Let them change yours.

Congratulations to Bella who was recently adopted in New Jersey! This beautiful girl came to DCAR over the summer as a breeder release from Pennsylvania. Her new family absolutely adores her and she is the center of their world (and her new grandma is knitting her her very own custom sweater!).

Our heartfelt appreciation is extended to Bella's sponsor, MaryJo Trovato, and to her foster mom, Sarah, for taking such good care of her while we searched for her forever home.

Bella, you deserve every bit of the love and joy that comes with a forever family. Wishing you endless happiness as you begin this beautiful new chapter! ❤️

Please join us in welcoming Cutie to the DCAR family! This sweet 6-year-old Cavalier (who is appropriately named!) just arrived as a recent breeder release from New York. She’s now settling into her foster home, learning what life outside the mill looks like, and taking her first steps toward a brighter future. We’ll be sure to share updates as she blossoms in her new beginnings!

Cutie is now safe in her foster home, but she still needs a little extra love and support. Like all of our foster pups, she’s hoping for a to help cover her monthly care and veterinary needs while she gets ready for her new future. If you’d like to become Cutie’s Sponsor Angel, please visit: www.dutchcountryanimalrescue.org/sponsor.html.
