My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

EMERGENCY FOSTER NEEDED — Bentley Needs Peace, Not Another Goodbye Foster to adopt is always an option



Bentley’s whole world was torn apart when he lost his human unexpectedly. One moment he had his person, his routine, his safety — and the next, everything he knew was gone. He was surrendered to us not because he wasn’t loved, but because there was no one left who could keep him.



Bentley is a 10-12 year-young, 26-lb sweetheart with the soul of a grumpy old man and the heart of the biggest snuggle bug you’ll ever meet. He lounges like a pro, snores like a freight train, and insists on having some part of his body touching his human at all times. That’s where he feels safe.



He is completely potty trained, walks nicely on a leash, loves being outdoors, and gets along beautifully with dogs, cats, kids, and even chickens (yes, really!). Bentley has some vision loss, but he compensates incredibly well — he does stairs, navigates confidently, and just needs a little patience and consistency. He does require daily eye medication, and he’ll need someone willing to help him with that simple routine.



Bentley has separation anxiety — understandable after losing the person he loved most — and he truly needs a quiet, calm home with someone who can spend a lot of time with him. A single person or couple would be ideal. He does not like being crated and needs to sleep in the same space as his human at night to feel secure. Because of his eye issues, a home without small children is best.



Bentley’s dream foster home:
• Quiet, peaceful environment
• Someone home often
• Couch time, gentle routines, and lots of reassurance
• A heart willing to help him feel safe again



Bentley doesn’t need perfection.
He needs peace.
He needs stability.
He needs someone who won’t leave.



If you can open your home — even temporarily — and be Bentley’s calm place while he heals, please step forward. Being his emergency foster could change his life and help him believe in love again.

He's being temporary fostered in Nazareth, PA

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Our rescues are with fosters on the east coast. The location in which the foster resides should be listed with each profile.

We are setting up some adoption events now, but are free for private meet and greets if you are interested in one of our adoptable pets!

More about this rescue

We have a passion for senior animals. To be able to save an animal from dying alone in a shelter, to give it a chance to live out its last days/months/years in a home with the proper care and love it deserves, instead of a cold shelter, is what drives us to keep going.

We obviously have financial needs that come with rescuing senior dogs, so we will be rescuing puppies and younger dogs as well so we are able to care for our seniors.
