What you make possible Whether you had a hand in this story or not, your help and support make these happy endings possible.

We feel it's really important to make room for seniors who end up in shelters. Many have passed through our doors and found wonderful, loving homes. Some of them spend the rest of their lives with us. Rather than feeling sad, we hope that you feel encouraged that we were able to give them a wonderful life. They certainly enriched ours.

We lost three of our sweet seniors recently.

We said good bye to: Left: Amos, a 12-15 year old black tri in January 2008 This gentle boy with the soulful eyes was always along for the happenings. He loved being with 'his person' who happened to be Kim at the Sanctuary. Right: Spike, an 11 year old Border Collie/Spaniel mix in December 2007 Spike came to us with Winnie. He loved to nap on one of the big dog beds, often cuddled up with Winnie or one of the puppies. Left: Rex, a 12 year old Border Collie in November 2007 Rex was a great friend of Dollie's. His hips made it hard to get around but he was always giving a happy bark to show he was involved in the play and he LOVED to be in the van. He never wanted to be left behind and would nap in the van if Kim left the door open for him.

They were a joy to know ~ we miss them very much.
