Corgi named Frankie sleeps on a couch.

7-year-old Frankie knows the best way to spend a cold dreary day. He’s just missing a human of his very own to snuggle on the couch beside him. #adoptme #corgi #adoptaseniorpet

Senior rescue dog resting comfortably in blankets.

A week ago, 13-year-old Doc was found tied to a pole. Today, he’s wrapped in blankets, his advanced kidney disease is being treated; he feels a bit better.

We don’t know what tomorrow holds for this little man. But today, he’s eating, resting, safe, and loved. And for now, that is everything. 💗

Three big digs squish together on a dog bed.

Nova, Chester, and Tundra - the infamous "Bigs" - have never once believed in personal space. Not with people. Not with dogs. Ridiculous? Yes. Perfect? Also yes. 🥰

Don’t be fooled by the mean mug - Bert is all about giving sweet hugs. And he figured we could all use one right now. 🖤🤍

The little dogs explore their upgraded room. Chester, a black lab mix, relaxes in front of the new fireplace. Staff and dogs enjoying the upgraded dog room. New couches, washable rug, and artwork make it feel like home. Staff and dogs enjoying the upgraded dog room. New couches, washable rug, and artwork make it feel like home.

Our cage-free dog rooms got an upgrade! New wipeable couches, consoles with fireplaces, TVs, and all the comforts of home. The dogs approve. Yes, a shelter can feel like home - there’s just a lot more cleaning 😂

Thanks to our donors who allow us to continually raise the bar for senior pet care. ❤️

13 year old Tootsie - now Ara - went home with her new pawrents! It was love at first cuddle.

Margie would like everyone to know she’s starving (tragic) & has never been fed a single meal in her 10 years on this earth.😔

In reality, she’s a hilarious, sweet-when-she-wants-to-be girl who lives for attention, belly flops, and making her people laugh. Adopt Margie. Save a diva. 👑

This weekend we welcomed two senior dogs who both found themselves homeless and alone. Meet Jackie and Pringles. Each around 9 years old, their worlds were turned upside down, but they’ve found a safe place to land. With time will come trust, love, and the chance to thrive in their golden years. ❤️

A catahoula leopard dog mix sits on a sofa and gives the camera a come-hither look under the magazine title DOGUE

Beaux thought he’d give cover modeling a try while he waits for his forever home.

Beaux is available for adoption from @youngatheartpets.bsky.social in Woodstock, IL:

10-year-old Kaia is a soft, shy sweetheart who just needs a little time to bloom. 🌹

Once Kaia feels safe with you, her silly side comes out: box-sitting champion, cardboard scratcher enthusiast, professional cozy-bed lounger. 💜

She’s ready for a person & home of her own.

Some cats nap by the fire.
Percy? He investigates the universe.

Curious, kooky, sweet, and just the right amount of trouble - his harness lets him safely explore and burn off that big personality.

He’s a whole vibe… and he’s looking for a home of his own. 🏡🐾

The Tundra Mobile is officially in service. 🚗

First ride = zero drama, maximum VIP energy. With a heated bed, and a cover for cold & windy days, the journey to his onsite water treadmill therapy just got much easier for this ol’ boy. He loves getting pulled around like the perfect prince he is. 👑🐾

You can see how kind his soul is just by looking into his eyes. Beaux is the bestest boy, waiting patiently for a family where he can be the only pet and soak up all the love for himself.
