Senior Spotlight
We envision a world where every senior dog thrives, and no old dog dies alone and afraid. Ensuring senior dogs find loving, forever homes is central to that vision. There are many benefits and reasons to adopt a senior dog, and we hope to show the world what incredible companions they are.
Here are some adoptable senior dogs located across the country. Please check in with each organization to learn more about how to adopt a shelter or rescue dog.
Sweet Potato
Sweet Potato is true to both parts of his name - extra sweet, cuddly, gentle, and a mild-mannered couch potato. If you're looking for a mellow friend to snuggle up as the weather turns cold, he's your guy! Sweet Potato came to SICSA as a stray, so his past remains a mystery. He needed quite a...
Brennan
Hi! I'm Brennan, but volunteers call me Grandpa B. I came in with my brother and we were not in the best shape. Indy Humane's medical team cared me back to health, and now I'm healthy and happy and ready to go home! I'm so loved by all volunteers for my gentle demeanor and slow walks. I would...
Lilly
Lilly is an independent visually-slow older woman seeking companionship to live out the rest of her life in peace and comfort. Enjoys meals and hanging with friends, but prefers quiet nights and naps alone. Communicative about what she needs, including outdoor time. There can never be enough...
Ms. Dottie
Ms. Dottie is delightful. Short and stocky, low enough to the ground that the grass can almost reach her adorable round little belly. She is a magical dog. She reminds us of a cross between a Komodo dragon and a cupcake—snorty and a little nicked up on the outside, but all mushy, gooey sweetness...

Aka and Ao

Stanley

Myra
Myra is as sweet as pie! She is very polite when meeting new doggy friends and loves to play. She has puppy energy when interacting with other dogs and will romp and chase like a dog half her age! Myra loves to go for long walks. This sweet girl might be a little shy at first when you want to...
Bailey
Still young in spirit and boyish in appearance, meet Bailey, a ten-year-old Puggle mix. His hind legs are a bit weak, so he does his best walking on grass or carpet, though when he’s happy (which is often!), he can still spin in circles to express his delight with the world. Friendly and...
Crystal
Known to have healing powers and positive energy, this absolute treasure is Crystal, a ten-year-old Husky. Gentle and good-natured, she loves slow walks given she's dressed in her fur coat despite these hot summer days. Her beautiful, expressive eyes can tell a thousand tales and she's hoping...
