Mission Statement
Old Dogs New Digs works to get senior dogs out of Maine shelters and into loving foster and forever homes as quickly and safely as possible. We believe that every moment in an old dog’s life is precious and should be spent immersed in love and comfort.
Description
We work with shelters throughout Maine to identify senior dogs who have been surrendered, and we network through various means, especially through social media, to find just the right place for them.
In some cases, we help to prevent senior dogs from ever landing in shelters to begin with - sometimes, a family who has fallen on hard times might be unable to afford quality food and medical care for their aging dog, so we help find resources to support the dog’s needs, so s/he doesn’t have to leave the home that s/he knows and loves.
