Grateful Hearts Senior Dog Rescue

We are a small, 501c non profit rescue, saving senior dogs, on death row, just begging for a second chance.

To offer compassion and safe sanctuary to senior dogs that have landed in the shelter system and face euthanasia.

This rescue was created primarily for the senior dogs. Every senior has been rescued from euthanasia from high kill shelters not only in Ohio, but all across the country. Once rescued, all are fully vetted-Up To date on vaccines, spayed/neutered, HW negative, or being treated for heart-worm, if possible, house broken. Some may be arthritic, some have special needs, some are just fine for their age. Every dog will be featured on our page, including happy tail adoptions.
Our rescue is a little different. Our target audience are mature single/couples and the senior population, looking for that one special companion, to give a soft landing to, and provide the love and devotion you may lack in your life. We never charge a rehome fee for our senior rescues-we do occasionally rescue a young dog that has zero interest in order to save them-we do ask a small rehome fee for them to be used to help more senior rescues-, we do ask you be committed to your pet, provide routine and annual vet care, agree they will be an indoor pet only, and love them as a family member. We operate on our own funding as well as donations. Our main purpose is to save these unwanted, throwaway seniors everyone has given up on, and give them the life they have earned and deserve.
We are a 501c non profit organization, so any and all donations and help we receive, are tax deductable.
Please share our page so we can reach all the lonely folks out there looking for that one special friend. We are located in central Ohio, and will travel and bring your pet within a reasonable distance.
If you'd like to be a part of our wonderful rescue, please consider the following needs:

We are looking for dedicated and committed fosters, willing to care for a senior dog however long it takes, to find that perfect home for him or her.
Dog food-both grain free and senior specific, both dry and canned appreciated.

Big, soft beds, toys, chewies, treat and biscuits .

Monetary donations gratefully accepted-we pay for vetting. travel costs and transportation fees at times, and many seniors require pain and arthritic medications.

We have rescued for some time now, but have taken on a few more seniors as there seems to be more and more facing euthanasia at these high kill shelters. Sadly, we can save only what we can safely and comfortably house until we find homes for them. The numbers would depress you. The faster we can find homes for our current dogs, the more we can reach out to, and save.
