Below are the current residents of Old Dogs Go To Helen. Old Dogs pay for all the medical and comfort care these dogs need until they pass on. While they are with us they undergo any treatments, diagnosis work, surgeries, and more to meet their needs. Not to mention a never ending supply of chicken nuggets!
