Senior Male Labrador Retriever needs rescue or foster/home


The New Britain dog pound picked-up a dog on the street last week. It is a male, senior black Labrador. Said to be a sweet dog, but he is old. The owner could not be located and his time is up at the pound.

If anyone has interest in fostering this sweet old man, please email me as soon as possible. He doesn't have much time left. Since he is a senior, he may be a long term foster. So please keep that in mind before you volunteer to foster him.

Adopt Lady, an oh so cute female senior shih tzu in NYC

Meet Lady!  Lady is an absolute angel that will be a great match for a calm, gentle family with kids over age 9. This 13 year old senior Shih Tzu mix was abandoned to a municipal shelter. When Lady came to Bideawee, she was swiftly given surgery for a prolapsed eye lid called cherry eye, as well as the removal of two benign masses. She is doing very well now and has a clean bill of health. Lady is partially housebroken and will use wee-wee pads. She weighs 17 pounds, and seems to be friendly with other gentle, calm animals.

9 year old Fedinand needs a home been in a shelter for a year - Branford CT

 Ferdinand is at the Branford shelter. He is a total love bug of a Rotti! He likes other dogs and barks at cats (but is too slow to do anything). He is neutered, vaccinated and heartworm free. He was hit by a car earlier this year and required three surgeries, which we did all of them. He is such a big love bug and I am hoping he can find a home.  see link for his page http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/18515284 .He will be here a year in January and he so deserves to be in a place that is heated in the winter instead of sleeping in the kennel- Thanks so much in advance!

want to adopt Ferdinand or want more info: email: lburban@branford-ct.gov

Jackpot and Sheba, home fell through still in boarding - need foster or home owner died suddenly

 Meet Jackpot and Sheba. they are bonded companion dogs whose owner died suddenly.  The home we thought we had for them just fell through so they continue to be in boarding.  Urgently need a foster home or adopter for these two great dogs!  Because they are senior dogs we are having a hard time finding them a forever home and are relying on donations to help with their vet care and boarding costs. We are running out of funds for their care until home

can be found.  If you know someone who is interested in adopting Jackpot & Sheba please contact me. These 2 sweet seniors are still full of life and love !! They are both as sweet and loving as can be. Sheba (15) is full of life she is house trained but with 15 year olds accidents can happen as I'm sure you know. Jackpot (11) has some arthritis, but I believe a natural arthritis remedy would be fine for him.   If you can offer a home or foster home or contribute to their boarding care, please contact:

JOIN TEAM GREY MUZZLE! (Virtually)
In honor of November’s Adopt-a-Senior-Dog Month, The Grey Muzzle Organization is hosting a Virtual Old Dog Walk on November 19th for senior dogs!
You can decide what special activity you’d like to do on November 19th, in honor of an old dog. Maybe it’s a walk – real or virtual, long or short – maybe it’s a snuggle or a special treat. Then ask your friends and family to sponsor you and help at-risk senior dogs. You can be on the team as easily as taking a stroll to your computer. You don’t even need your sneakers for this event!
This easy, fun event allows anyone, even dogs who can’t walk that mile physically but are willing and able at heart, to raise funds for their kindred spirits waiting alone in shelters for a second chance at a comfortable life.
Please help senior dogs in need by participating in our Virtual Old Dog Walk today! We’ll tally the donations at the end of the day on November 19th. The total funds raised will be posted on the Grey Muzzle website in early December. The senior dog lover raising the most funds will receive a certificate suitable for framing and a Grey Muzzle t-shirt!
It’s fun, fast and EASY! Just click JOIN NOW up above and create your own fundraising page! Remember to email it to your friends, family, veterinarians, groomers and colleagues to raise much needed funds for The Grey Muzzle Organization. You can also sponsor Thomas (pictured), our Virtual Old Dog Walk mascot.


Funds raised will support Grey Muzzle’s programs such as hospice care, senior dog adoption, medical screening, and other special programs to help old dogs at animal welfare organizations across the country.
Senior dogs have a wisdom and a world view that pups and young dogs don’t have. To get to know them and experience that first hand is something that people who have rescued older dogs say is beyond measure.
Celebrate old dogs by “walking” today!

Remember, if you can’t set up your own fundraising page, you can still be on our senior dog team and cheer for our mascot, Thomas. Thomas is a Grey Muzzle grant recipient from Blind Dog Rescue. He’s about ten years old (but who’s counting?), a little deaf, partially blind, but there’s nothing wrong with his heart (literally or figuratively). He’s full of love and good with dogs, kids, and cats. So who better to represent and inspire the Grey Muzzle team? Sponsor Thomas today!

Adopt Lena, a female shepherd/chow chow mix 8 years old in NYC

WATCH MY VIDEO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3q4uSqF38s


Lena is a social and loving Shepherd/Chow Chow mix that is energetic and lively despite her age, which is approximately 8 years old. Lena weighs 45 pounds and came to Bideawee via a municipal shelter, where she was taken in as a stray. Lena seems to get along with other dogs and is somewhat housebroken, but her new family will need to continue working with her on this. She does need an experienced family with kids over 9, since she does  seem to have moderate resource guarding with food, bones, and pigs' ears.

Adopt Bailey, and 8 yr old 13" male lemon beagle owner surrender due to economy

Meet Bailey. This adorable 13" male beagle is 8 years old.  Bailey's owner has had him since he was a puppy.  Due to the economy she must move in with relatives and Bailey cannot come.  She is truly heartbroken and asked everyone she knows to adopt him.  No one would.  Look at this face!!! 
Bailey is a really good dog.   He is not a barker or howler but will give a little "yip" if he needs to go out.
He definitely could live in an apartment!  He gets along with dogs and likes to play.  Too interested in the kitties.  He knows the names of his toys and will bring the one you ask for!  How cute is this????
He is good sitting for his bath, he is on heartworm and frontline.  He has sensitive skin and was allergic to a plant, but this plant is not native in the northeast.  His overall healty is excellent.  Neutered and microchipped, Bailey is ready to move in with you.  Please email joansdogs@aol.com for adoption application.  Bailey will be relocating from the south so he is not currently in the northeast area.  Rescue groups welcome to rescue this adorable boy!

Rally to Support Daniel's Law - End animal gas chambers in PA!

Preston, senior cat who is blind and declawed needs home or rescue - location CT

ARA PROJECT SAVE-A-CAT in Cos Cob, CT

I live in a world of pitch-black darkness and had my claws taken from me. I had a family once, but was discarded outside in a rural area. I struggled and survived several terrifying weeks outside before a kind rescuer took me to a cat sanctuary in Greenwich. I am grateful to be safe, well-fed and receiving lots of TLC.

However, I’m sad and getting very frustrated. Because I am so vulnerable, I startle easily. Being around so many other cats is stressful. Two months have passed, and not a single person has shown interest in taking me home . I think I would be very comfortable in a small and quiet home, with a patient human to call my own. I was scrawny, with matted fur – now I look great (if I may say so myself). I am healthy, tested FIV/FELV negative, current on vaccinations, and neutered. The nice veterinarian suggested that I be given K-D food to make sure that my kidneys stay healthy. I'm about 9-10 years old and would love to be cherished for my remaining years in a real home. If given the chance, I promise to be a wonderful, loving, and loyal companion! If you are interested in opening your heart and home to me, please e-mail Natalie at atia2@optonline.net . Adoption application/agreement and home check are required to insure my safety. Purrs and gratitude - Preston
