In celebration of Adopt a Senior Pet Month and the thankfulness of the season, we asked everyone who adores an older dog (distinguished grey muzzle on full display or not) to help spread the word by submitting their pup in our #GreyMuzzleGratitude Challenge.

In celebration of Adopt a Senior Pet Month, 23 senior dogs took to the skies from California to Oregon on a journey to their forever homes. Although we are celebrating 23 heartwarming adoptions, thousands more at-risk senior dogs in shelters all across the country still need your help. With your support, this GivingTuesday we can ensure more senior dogs like Maggie spend their golden years safe and loved, no matter where they call home.

Grey Muzzle celebrated Adopt a Senior Pet Month in style with Today.com. We are thankful to Anna Kaplan for sharing the story of this special lifesaving mission made possible by a Grey Muzzle grant to Pet Rescue Pilots. On November 5, Pet Rescue Pilots flew senior dogs from rural California shelters where they had little chance of adoption to Oregon where they were welcomed by foster parents and forever families.

For most of us the idea of flying 2,500 shelter pets to forever homes seems like an extraordinary and unthinkable task. But for L.A.-based Pet Rescue Pilots and its rescue network, it’s all part of a day’s work.
