Senior Paws Dog Rescue and Sanctuary is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization operated solely by loving and dedicated volunteers who rescue senior dogs in the state of Florida. These are dogs who have been abandoned, dumped in shelters or destined for premature euthanasia, due to reasons that are not warranted. Our organization is dedicated to provide:

• Medical treatment when illness is curabl

e or manageable
• Preventative treatment to prolong the healthy senior dog’s life
• Loving palliative hospice care for terminally ill senior dogs
• Both traditional and alternative health and wellness care as appropriate
• Dedicated efforts to secure permanent, safe and loving life-long homes

Our belief is that as humans, we are all in this together. In return, we feel compelled to provide safe havens for them. Our work with other rescue organizations and shelter facilities aims at increasing community awareness and involvement through outreach and hands-on education. We are proud of our unique approaches and activities for the benefit of our senior dogs:

• We are 100% volunteer and foster-based.

• Our Directors and Coordinators are skilled in their primary areas of expertise
and do not receive compensation.

• Our mission is to take a conservative approach with finances to maintain low
overhead and to focus our donations directly for the care of our dogs.

• Quality of care for our seniors before quantity of rescues are our most
important goals.

• We coach our foster parents to develop the skills needed to provide safe and
important goals.

• We are an open adoption rescue, meaning we focus on the positive aspects of
potential adopters, instead of looking for reasons why they should be denied
from adoption. Senior Paws Dog Rescue is a limited-admission organization. Avoiding overcrowded conditions or boarding facilities, we accept only those senior dogs for which we have fosters. By limiting our dog population, we are successful in meeting the standards of the Association of Shelter Veterinarians.
