Saving Senior Dogs Week is a national senior dog awareness campaign to benefit senior dog rescues in the United States
presented by Lily’s Legacy Senior Dog Sanctuary in collaboration with senior dog rescues throughout the USA.

Saving Senior Dogs USA was created by Lily’s Legacy Senior Dog Sanctuary in Petaluma, CA, to further its goals of educating the public about the plight of homeless senior dogs, the joys of adopting them, and supporting existing senior dog rescue organizations throughout the USA who work tirelessly to save these needy dogs. Donations are also gratefully accepted throughout the year. 

The campaign is driven through social media (please share).

Senior dogs are the ones least likely to be rescued or adopted. They are most at risk of being euthanized in shelters. Of the estimated 14,000 rescue groups nationwide, less than 100 are dedicated exclusively to rescuing, rehabilitating and re-homing senior dogs. At the end of the campaign, 75% percent of the funds raised will be divided equally among the participating senior dog rescues. The remaining 25% will go into a Saving Senior Dogs USA Grant Fund to provide veterinary care for member rescues. 100% of the funds will go towards saving thousands of homeless senior dogs.

October 25th kicks off Saving Senior Dogs Week, but, of course, the life-saving rescues and adoptions take place all 52 weeks of the year.
