Meet some of the senior dogs helped by The Grey Muzzle Organization. We provide grants to support lifesaving, innovative senior dog programs across the country. These are just a few of the senior dogs who got their second chance thanks to the work of our grantees and the generosity of our supporters.
Please consider making a life-changing gift today to help even more at-risk senior dogs get the second chance they so deserve.
To learn more about the organizations we fund, see our Grants Recipients page. The dogs featured here have found their forever homes, but you can find adoptable senior dogs on our Senior Spotlight page.

Maggie Mae
How we helped
Sweet Maggie Mae was found injured on the side of the road in Georgia. She had a broken leg and her back was obviously hurt, so animal control figured she was probably struck by a car.

Levi
How we helped
It has taken a village to save Levi!
He came to Austin Humane Society (AHS) from the Louisiana SPCA in partnership with the Houston SPCA during the crisis response to Hurricane Laura this past fall. This senior pup had obvious cataracts and loss of vision.

Ridge
How we helped
Ridge, a nine-year old collie mix, was found abandoned in an old house with other dogs. They were left with no food or water. Sadly, Ridge was picked on by the other dogs and had bite marks all over his body.

Paw Paw
How we helped
Sweet Paw Paw came to Mostly Mutts Animal Rescue and Adoption, Inc. in Georgia from a puppy mill bust. He had spent his whole life living in confinement and used as a breeding dog.

Cleo
How we helped
Before being brought to the Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA (CASPCA), Cleo was used for breeding and spent her whole life chained outside.

Brewster
How we helped
Brewster was seen being dumped on a corner in South Florida. A Good Samaritan followed him to a parking lot and was then able to scoop him up and bring him to Broward County Animal Care as a stray.

Sparky
How we helped
Sweet 13-year-old Sparky came to the Humane Society for Southwest Washington (HSSW) after her owners decided she needed a home that could give her more attention.

Reni
How we helped
When she turned 14, Serenity’s (Reni's) main man was deployed overseas. He asked family to care for her, and they did, until Covid-19 strained their financial resources. Looking for help, they found Top Dog Foundation.

Dolly
How we helped
Dolly arrived at the Humane Society of Shelby County (AL) as a heartworm-positive stray. She was not an attention-getter in her kennel and potential adopters kept passing her by.

Sammie
How we helped
Sammie was found wandering down the road, in the middle of the night, by a Good Samaritan. Once at the Humane Society for Tacoma and Pierce County, he was immediately taken to the veterinarian due to the poor state of his skin. The vet team also noticed Sammie was completely blind.

Luigi
How we helped
When Luigi - a sweet nine-year-old miniature poodle - arrived at the East Bay SPCA, they knew it would take a very special family to see what a lovable little guy he is and provide him the home he so desperately wanted.

Beau
How we helped
Fifteen-year-old Beau is the constant companion of Ms. Martin, age 96. Beau recently slowed down on his eating and seemed lethargic and "off." Being very worried about her sidekick, Ms. Martin reached out to the Seniors' Pet Assistance Network (SPAN).
