Paw Prints Dog Sanctuary
Animal rescues and shelters throughout the country are filled to capacity with animals. Older dogs, especially those who are handicapped or have a chronic illness, are more likely to be in a shelter or rescue for an extended period of time. The space occupied by dogs who take longer to find a permananet home is space that could have been used by many dogs in the same time frame.
As a second-tier animal shelter, Paw Prints Dog Sanctuary accepts dogs directly from Central Pennsylvania shelters and rescues, so those organizations can help a larger number of dogs. We provide a loving, safe haven either until a forever home is found or to live out their lives at this peaceful place. We define senior as approximately 10 and over, and seniors with disabilities or illnesses are welcome here.
If you would like to consider making one of these dogs a part of your life, please see our list of adoptable pets.
