We don't leave seniors and medical special needs dogs behind.  We have a  special hospice program for those dogs that are  aging, sick and deemed unadoptable.  Often times these dogs are surrendered by their owners in high kill shelters or abandoned by their owners.  These sick, injured, aged and terminal dogs deserve to know love and to not be killed in cold shelters.  We accept them into our program and get them evaluated and treat them accordingly with pain management, simple blood tests, X-rays etc to get a general idea of the dogs health before putting a plan in place for them.  Because these dogs are not adoptable in most cases, we work to raise the necessary funds to help cover their medical care.  We have a compassionate veterinary team that helps these dogs cross the rainbow bridge peacefully and surrounded by love.  We have a few very dedicated hospice foster homes.  We are truly grateful for them as this is  extremely emotional and challenging for them.
