Chances are you’re familiar with the idea of going to a retirement home to visit your grandparents or other elderly relatives, but have you ever gone to a doggie retirement home? The Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary in Mount Juliet, TN has made it their mission to honor the lives of elderly dogs by providing them a lifetime home and raising awareness of the joys and challenges unique to living with aging dogs. The sanctuary currently houses 45 senior dogs and support over 90 more in forever foster homes. The photos on the Old Friends’ Facebook page prove that old dogs are just as playful, funny, fierce, and sweet as any puppy.
