Hospice Care
Sometimes when we bring a senior dog into our care, we find out they have a life threatening medical condition. For some of our dogs who are expected to live only a few months, we provide Hospice Care.
Providing Hospice Care for a dog is a big commitment and a rewarding experience. If you are interested in providing foster care for a dog for the last several months or more of their life, contact us. As with all foster assignments, POMDR will cover all medical expenses for dogs in hospice care.
Please consider becoming a sponsor for one of these sweeties.
Russell
Sweet, sweet Russell joined us early in 2024 after being surrendered to Santa Cruz County Animal Services when his guardian fell ill and was not able to care for this sweet boy any longer.
Over time, Russell's vision has diminished and health has been declining. Despite this decline, Russell still adores his people. He still enjoys a good walk around the block and loves to sink into a cozy bed for a nap afterwards. We're grateful that mister Russell will live out his senior years under the care of his incredible foster mom and the care of our vet team to ensure he stays as healthy as can be.

Wilson
Sweet Wilson joined us from Contra Costa Animal Services after his homeless guardians came to realize they could not provide Wilson with the care he needed in his advancing age.
Wilson is a senior dog with a heart as golden as his years. Unfortunately, his severe mobility difficulties paired with numerous other medical factors including cushings, IVDD, vision loss, and some doggie dementia, we have decided that Wilson should join our hospice group. He will live out his days under the attentive care of our vet team soaking in as much love as possible.

Mila
This sweet senior gal initially joined us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after she was found as a stray. She had clearly seen better days. We are so grateful to get miss Mila set up in a loving senior experienced foster home to give her all of the love and care she could ever need. Mila loves to snooze the day away in a nice comfy bed surrounded by the other Chihuahua friends in her foster home.
Mila has some vision impairments, arthritis, and other on-going medical needs. Fortunately, she will spend the remainder of her days very much loved and doted on in her foster home.
