Senior dog welfare and adoption initiatives

Overview

Efforts to support senior dogs in shelters have been highlighted through both direct financial assistance and nationwide awareness campaigns.

Lizzy’s Fund provides financial aid to dogs aged seven and older that enter shelters due to owner circumstances such as death, relocation to nursing homes, or medical costs.

In a broader effort, Lily’s Legacy Senior Dog Sanctuary in Petaluma participated in the eighth annual Saving Senior Dogs Week. This nationwide campaign, involving 37 rescue organizations across the United States, utilizes social media and ‘Ambassadogs’ to promote the adoption of older canines and raise funds for the Saving Senior Dogs USA rescue network.
