Grey Muzzle News

Grey Muzzle grantee Pet Rescue Pilots is kicking off Adopt a Senior Pet Month in a big way!

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.

Share Your Gratitude for Life with a Senior Dog and Encourage Others to Open Their Heart to a Grey Muzzle

Has a senior dog touched your life? Enter the #GreyMuzzleGratitude challenge! The winning dog will receive a timeless custom pet portrait etching created by Greyboy Pet Prints. The top ten winners get a Grey Muzzle calendar and will be showcased on our website!

If a senior dog has ever touched your heart and shared your home, the 2023 Grey Muzzle calendar is for you. We are fans of celebrating the bond with our old dogs year round. So in true Grey Muzzle fashion, we've put together a new collection of treasured senior dogs to grace our lives throughout 2023. The 2023 calendar features dozens of the pictures submitted by you during our Summer Smile Campaign.

We are thrilled to be featured in Modern Dog, a lifestyle magazine for modern dogs and their companions. Raising awareness of senior dogs helps us take a step closer to our vision of a world where every senior dog thrives and no old dog dies alone and afraid.

Grey Muzzle's seventh annual Summer Smile Campaign is underway! Our goal is to raise $25,000 by September 8 so even more senior dogs than ever before can experience new smiles and brighter tomorrows. We can't do it without you! Give a gift to our dental fund and how off your grey muzzle's smile for a cause by entering them in our 2023 calendar contest.

Old dogs have something to bark about as The Grey Muzzle Organization announces more than $705,000 in grants to 78 animal welfare groups—shelters, rescue groups, sanctuaries and other nonprofits working to save and improve the lives of senior dogs. This brings the national Grey Muzzle Organization’s total grant funding to more than $3.8 million since 2008.

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 sharing #GreyMuzzleGratitude on social media and with us. We wanted to know what makes you thankful for your senior dog and the expressions of gratitude came rolling in.

Share the Joy of Adopting a Senior Dog and Encourage Others to Do the Same
