Hospice care
Dogs who will spend the rest of their lives with us.
A life-threatening medical condition means these dogs stay in POMDR's care rather than being adopted. They are loved, comfortable and looked after for as long as they have.

Snowflake
Meet Snowflake, a dainty senior Chihuahua with a whisper-soft presence and a way of quietly stealing hearts. True to her name, she's delicate, gentle, and most content in peaceful moments, nestled in blankets, snoozing in a sunny spot, or resting close to her favorite person.

Spork
Just like the world's most versatile utensil, this little lady truly does it all: she is part sweet spoon (all cuddles and snuggles) and part sassy fork (with opinions about when dinner should be served).

Suki
Suki's name comes from the Japanese word for loved one, and it fits her perfectly. This sweet girl has a gentle, mellow soul and a calm presence that makes you want to sit beside her and tell her everything will be okay.

Winkle
Winkle was named after Rip Van Winkle because of how much he slept when he came into our program (22 hrs a day!), and in the hopes that he would one day feel better and "wake up." We are happy to report that after he had all his medical issues addressed at our clinic, he "woke up" and really started to enjoy life.

Zelda
Zelda is a tiny but mighty, loving little lady looking for her forever home. She loves being carried in her foster mom's pouch, and is always content to toddle around the yard in the sun. Zelda loves to be the center of attention, and we think she would do best in home without other dogs.
No dog is ever left behind.
Sometimes when we bring a senior dog into our care, we find out they have a life-threatening medical condition. For dogs who are expected to live only a few months, we provide hospice care: they live out their days safe, comfortable and loved in a POMDR foster home, and POMDR covers all of their medical expenses.
A sponsorship pays for a dog's care, and sponsors are thanked by name on the dog's own page.
