Kind words for old dogs
hi, Ookie! You are so precious! I am wondering if you are house trained and if you like other dogs? We have one 11-year-old female Portuguese water dog who is sad because her 19-year-old doggy sister died a month ago. I'd love to know more about you!
Interested in adopting a senior dog. Read Oakie’s story seems like a sweet pup. Do you know if she gets along with cats? I have 2 rescue kitties, 2 & 3 yrs old. Pls email me so we may discuss Oakie and if you think we might be a good match? I lost my rescue dog of 12 yrs and miss having a sweet calm pup. Thank u Shonnie
Piggy, You are the most adorable dog I've ever seen ! My husband and I would love to give you a loving home. However you are 5 hours away from where we live in Fairfield California. I don't know if there are any volunteers who could transport you to us? I've always wanted to have a Pekineze and I love that face!! We are retired and would give you all the love and attention you deserve!!!
Wish wish you were in MN or western Wi for adoption. Praying that you get adopted by a loving person asap. You are a beauty.
My brother Malikye Pireu is the owner of Alpha. Alpha was his service dog and I haven't been able to reach Malikye over the past almost 3 weeks I've been trying to find my brother and I know that Alpha has been kenneled at least minimally 6 to 10 times over the past year and a half due to my brother getting beat up and all of his personal possessions stolen multiple times in San Bernardino and when he's not getting beat up or his possessions stolen he has gotten arrested for warrants based upon not showing up to court due to being homeless I would love to help Alpha and possibly becoming his new guardian or owner if somebody could reach out to me I would greatly appreciate it at 760-669-7053 or at the email linked above
I'm looking to adopt another chihuahua for my older chihuahua. Is he good with other dogs because he seems perfect!
I’d love to adopt you Betsy Boo but you require a fenced yard and I live in an apartment with my 9 yr old Shih Tzu. I have raised or adopted many small dogs who have all gone over the Rainbow Bridge. Sll in townhouses or apartments.
Lady Carpenter you are beautiful I would love to spoil and love you 😍
Floof i would love to adopt you And have you be my Heidi's pal. Heidi is 12 also.
I am very interested in adopting Mallard. I tried contacting the shelter/rescue through email but I received a message saying there was a problem with the email going through. Mallard is a gorgeous 7 year old male German Shepherd. I have always wanted a German Shepherd. It's kind of a bucket list thing for me. A few years ago I rescued a 6 year old Australian/Golden Retriever dog. Ever since then I will always adopt an adult dog (or a senior dog).
Wish he was just a little smaller, I would love Myles. Live in 2ng floor apartment
I am interested in adopting Rain. I am also looking for another dog posiblly Lucille or a chihuahua. I want two dogs so they have company. Please contact me. Thank you susan lane
Our last dog was an 8 yoa Pit mix and he was absolutely sweet and gentle and I hope somebody down there will give Hulk the chance to show how wonderful he can be.
Hi, I'm interested in Juni. Please tell me if she's good with cats, her energy level, and activity level. Thank you!
Hi, I'm interested in Erc. Please tell me if he's good with cats and exactly how much he weighs. I have a senior male labrador who is very mellow and gentle and a young cat. Also his prey drive. I live in a beautiful country where lots of wildlife is around. I don't want him to lunge at them while walking. Thank you!
I am interested in Spicy. After reading his resume I am sure he would be a great addition to our family. I have 3 chihuahuas all rescued and they are my life. One of them was rescued from my vets office. He lost his owner with dementia and my vet took him in. I adopted him right away. He has a lovely quirky attitude much like the description of Spicy. He is like a cat, don't pet him until he demands it. My # is 321 557 8418.
Ava looks like a real winner. How am I able to get more information about her? I guess the first thing I should ask, is she still available?
Heidi sounds like a real sweet girl. I am interested in her, but I'd like to know if she's good with cats. I have a young cat and a senior male labrador who is very mellow and gentle. Do you think she may be interested in our family?
If they are still available please let me know My husband and have rescued three Samoyeds over the past 40 years We have never had small dogs but we do want to rescue senior dogs now to give them the best life ever and in rescuing 2 it makes room for 2 more.
Buttercup has a special friend, Tuffy, a fox terrier, waiting for her here at her new home...aprox fifteen acres for her to run and enjoy the outdoors away from the road! She can also run with Tuffy around our half mile horse racing track, no horses.
Mable, I think you’ll be a great addition to our family.
We might be interested we have an old dog and would love a friend for him jim bob is a rescue and has been with us for 6 years we also have a 12 year old son Liam who is high functioning autistic do you think this dog could be a match for us. Oo also we are retired and Liam is home schooled so we are home most of time
We would like to discuss adopting Magoo. We have adopted several small dogs over the years. We think Magoo would be perfect for our home. He is adorable and has the self confidence that makes him so loveable. we Have a fenced yard and walk our dog 2 times a day. We have great vet vet. references.
We are interested in Moe he sounds like the perfect dog for us. We recently lost our darling Loki and would like to give Moe a good safe home. we have had other senior dogs some as old as 15 w w we are very interested in
I would love to bring Winston home with me! I think I could give him a happy life!
Cricket was considered a Senior Dog because of her 2years at the Berln Animal Control,... Her actual age is Between 3 1/2 and 4 1/2.

I am a senior and would like a senior dog. When we were growing up we had a Spitz/Eskimo dog named Rex. I have fond memories of Rex. I live on 9/10 of an acre and have a yard within a yard(a raised fenced patio) . I have a cat who is 11. If Auggie is inclined I would take him to the fenced playing fields to run around with my son's two Weimaraners Sophie and Dakota. I have a ranch house. Auggie would be a great pal which I would love in my retirement years.
I have Cancer and I am alone. The Dr's think it will help my depression. I like Mochi he has a kind face. I am a Veteran and will take very good care of him
Hi, Missy, I put an application in to have you become part our pack, one dog, Jack, and one chill cat, Penny. Sure hope they pick me to be your new mama so I can spoil you rotten. 😉
Pecan Pinwheel is beautiful; she reminds me of my dog who passed away last year at age 14. Is she good with cats? Is she high energy or pretty laid back?
80 year old man lost wife and looking for a friend. I have always had a dog all my life and am looking for a small friend so it will not be so lonely here. I take care of myself I drive to store and at times to doctors appointments. I own my home with large yard I mow Myself. Dog must like grand kids
Llittle one you are adorable and one of my favorite breeds. I am a senior and I am home alot. I have a fenced yard (total) and in the back yard I have a fenced in area off the patio. We spend some time out there and I also have a large front yard. I have a very elderly Bichon and a Bichon/Maltese mix who has medical issues. She still gets around great and loves everyone. Trudy is a special little girl. She is blind, deaf and has had many medical procedures since she came here. All my girls are well cared for and sweet. Let me know if you can join us. PS Monday thru Friday we will be in Michigan visiting family. thanks
Hello baby
I would love to have you come and live out your days with me. I live in the country and have a fenced back yard. You could go everywhere with me and never ever have to worry about being lonely. I would love you more than you could imagine. You would have a quiet and peaceful home for the rest of your days.
Had dogs for years, my last one I had for 14 years. Love bulldogs, don’t want a young one because of our age. I do have a house cat, but he is not scared of dogs. Please contact me. I worked for a vet for years and can give meds, etc.

Where is Dobs located? I am searching for another small senior furbaby that needs a wonderful retirement home. I am retired, own my home, have a fenced and retaining wall enclosed back yard, a doggie door and have a 13 year old Havanese and an adopted 11 hear old Maltese. These seniors deserve a loving comfortable retirement home.
Is Kaci still available? What fees will I have to pay? I hope that it's not too high because I want us to be Kaci's forever home! She stole my heart with one look!
Hi Bella Rae, Your name means "beautiful ray of light". Seeing your sweet face makes my heart happy❤️ My companion dog and best friend Mandy Mae recently passed. We shared 13 years together and I miss her so much. I'm praying you will find your perfect forever home. Maybe it can be me if someone who reads this knows a way to bring you closer so I can meet you. I have a cat who has always had a dog friend and misses Mandy too. We have a quiet, cozy cabin in the woods with a fenced yard. Tell your foster family thanks for sharing your story and pictures and taking such good care of you🙂 Your smile is adorable and I can tell you are a little sweetheart! God bless you💕
I recently had to put down my Toy Fox Terrier. He had throat cancer and was suffering. I've had him since he was a pup. Got him for my Lhasa Apso, who passed a few years ago also. He and I comforted each other over that loss and he and I became endearing friends. I miss him terribly. I can't imagine being without a dog and this dog is q great likeness to him. I live on the East coast and it's hard to find a dog that's close by. I don't want to travel to find a dog. But this one is adorable.
very cute dog
We fell in love with your sweet face. We want to meet you
I'm A single, retired, senior myself. Small totally fenced yard with shade and spots of sunshine. Just lost my rescue senior dog, and she too was a pee pad dog. Can't believe how much you miss having a dog around. I know Casa Grande is a few miles up the road from the listed location parameters. Are both dogs still available?
I have a request for the job
Is Annie still available, Old is just as lovable as baby.
Please tell me: is he still available and; what is his temperament. I want a loving, cuddly dog, who is intelligent, protective (but not mean), friendly and well trained. I have had several labs & trained them from pups, but I dont have the energy to start from a puppy.

Sugar seems to fit exactly the kind of partner i'm looking for - Sweet, loving, companion dog who has been well cared for. I'm an affectionate loving person by nature. I'm looking for a companion dog who is of the same nature that I can love and care for.
Sugar looks like she could sweeten my life beautiful. I've been looking for a Shih Tzu or a Maltese. Sugar looks like she and I shall be long time companions.
I would like to adopt him
❤️🤩❤️Hi Batman! You are very handsome. You also have a lot of love and affection to share with someone. The best of luck in your life! Things will work out for you. Yes they will. ❤️😍❤️
I have been adopting senior dogs for years I am a senior . home all day retired own my own home all on one floor . Bella would be my 9th senior dog. Walk every day for about a 1/2 hour . My old dogs sleep with me .
Is Hannah available? We would love to drive to Colorado Springs to meet her. We are looking for an adult poodle. We have a small Shih Tzu.
I will take her, I just don’t know how I can get her here. We currently have a sweet 12 year old rescue, she’s been with us for 7 years. We lost our other baby that was a rescue 3 years ago to cancer. We would love to welcome little Annie into our home! Thank you, Patty and Loyd Done (we are also seniors) P.S we have a rescue kitty too, but she is fine with dogs.
I am looking for a senior German Shepherd. I have https://lilysecondchance.org/#findhad many shepherd breeds in my life and love everything about the breed. Senior dogs need a second chance more than younger dogs in many cases. My dogs are family and are treated that way. Micky will be an inside baby. He can sleep on my bed or wherever he wants. I love to smother my baby with scritchers and belly rubs. I hope you find my interest in my application. Looking forward to hearing from you with the hope Micky becomes part of my home, Gloria
Cats? How long has he been a rescue?
I like to know more information of this little princess. How is her health?

I CAN TALK TO SOMETHING THAT WOULD RESPONDS. OTHER THEN SUNNY A CHUBBY OLD TABBY CAT WHO MOVES TO A DIFFERENT ROOM WHEN I SIT BESIDE HIM.
I love 😘 them all
If I had the ability to adopt, I would. Please keep Bangles from being euthanized. No animal deserves to suffer. Someone should adopt and give him a wonderful life.
You can tell by her loving eyes, she is a very sweet dog.
Site shows adopted
We came across our loving rescue dog (Sandy) at Miri's Senior Dog Rescue in Maryland. She was in line to be euthanized due to a collapsed trachea and could not be operated on. We had her for a year and died. She lasted longer than expected. If you could contact her prior foster McKenzie Allen at (812)612-2190 she would have a recommendation on our caring for her. and our environment. I am an active senior at 82 years RJK Thank you
After reading the article about how Cricket was abandoned and spent 2long years at Berlin Animal Control, It was my Duty to give Her the Life she was intended to Have.
I would love her to pieces but I don’t have transportation
