A sanctuary dog is a cherished member of our rescue, providing a safe and loving home for those who may not be adoptable due to various circumstances. These dogs may be seniors, in hospice care, have special needs, or face behavioral challenges that prevent them from thriving in typical environments. Some sanctuary dogs take on the important role of temperament testers, helping us assess the compatibility of other dogs for adoption. Regardless of their background, each sanctuary dog is given the care, respect, and attention they deserve, living out their days surrounded by compassion and support. Their presence enriches our community and serves as a reminder of the diverse needs of dogs in our care.
