INFO about Old Dog Haven fostering
Old Dog Haven is a network of loving private homes spread all over Western Washington, Spokane, and Portland. We work with homeless dogs 8 years old and over, prioritizing the oldest and the sickest. Since we do not have a shelter of any kind, we rely heavily on our foster families who provide a loving safe environment until the end of the dog’s life.
Over the years since Old Dog Haven (ODH) was founded in 2004, as more people began adopting senior dogs from shelters, our focus has become only those dogs who, due to age and/or health, will not be adoptable and so are in the most need. ODH no longer takes in dogs for adoption, all ODH dogs are in permanent foster homes for assisted living and/or hospice care.
All ODH dogs have special needs. They may be very old or have serious medical conditions or have significant emotional issues such as severe separation anxiety. Or they might have all of the above. Our dogs are not just companions, caring for them is a big commitment of time and emotional energy, both at home and in the many vet appointments. The foster parent, the veterinarian, and ODH staff work as a team in making decisions about care so good communication is essential.
ODH pays all medical expenses including prescription food, but all other costs of having a dog in their home are paid by the foster family. We require the dog be fed quality food (not raw or grain-free), receive standard senior dog supplements, and be on a flea preventative.
