Shelter FAQs

Retired Tails is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing senior dogs from local shelters. Many senior furs spend their golden years in stressful environments because they weren't fostered or adopted in time, which drives our strive to crown as many royal furs as paw-sible, providing their very own royal retirement homes before crossing the rainbow bridge.

We support underserved and low-income communities by offering outreach, information, and resources to encourage pet retention. This intake/surrender diversion keeps beloved pets with their families and out of shelters.
