Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary saves hundreds of dogs, pays vet bills for life
Old dogs don't care that they're old. They focus on much more important matters: Comfort. Snacks. Naps. And, of course, belly rubs from the people they love.
Nearly 100 senior dogs are enjoying all those essentials and more at Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary, a fairy tale land for former shelter dogs in Mount Juliet, Tennessee. Hundreds more are lounging on soft beds and soaking up affection in "forever foster homes" located within a 100-mile radius of the sanctuary.
Foster families get to care for calm, content pets without ever having to worry about a single vet bill, and the once-homeless dogs get to spend the rest of their days as part of a family.
"When they come to us from the shelter, we say, 'Today is the day that they start their new life,'" Zina Goodin, co-founder of Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary, told TODAY. "We just try to help them feel better and make them healthy so they can live out the rest of their lives happily."

I hope people donate to these types of shelters by including them in their wills/trusts. They need it and it is appreciated.
Like right now!
I've bookmarked this so to go back and send them a donation.
I love old dogs. I love all dogs, but old dogs are so special. I get so angry when people treat them like they are disposable. It is so wonderful that these people have created a place where all these old dogs can be together and live out their senior years in comfort and happiness together.
Thank god for people like this!
Thanks for posting this!
