A compassionate man opens a sanctuary for senior dogs abandoned due to old age, providing them with love, care, and dignity in their golden years, sanctuary for seniors.

Russell Clothier, a former high school physics teacher, set out to create Shep’s Haven to provide a nice place for older, unadopted dogs to live out their final years somewhere they can be happy.

It would be an added advantage if they were adopted.

Since its inception, the non-profit dog sanctuary has taken in roughly 30 canines, with the 21st being adopted out this week.

Suzie, a 12-year-old pointer mix who stayed with a lady who had to transfer into a nursing home, was adopted after only a week.

“It has really taken off,” Clothier said about the adoptions. “I didn’t expect there would be this turnover.

“Even with the lockdown, we’ve actually seen an increase in dog adoptions. We’re very gratified that there’s so many that like the older dogs.”
