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!
PLEASE NOTE - WE DO NOT ADOPT ANY OF OUR ANIMALS OUT. We are a sanctuary and they are here to live out their days in peace and happiness. We highly support adopting senior dogs from your local animal shelter or check out https://www.savingseniordogsusa.org
