The Old Mutt Hut
The Old Mutt Hut is a partner of Best Friends, working together to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country
The Best Friends Network is made up of thousands of public and private shelters, rescue groups, spay/neuter organizations, and other animal welfare groups — all working to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country.
From The Old Mutt Hut
We are a sanctuary--a 2,000 square foot house--with a full-time live-in caregiver for senior dogs (age 10 or older) who have not found homes through shelters or rescue groups. We have sometimes adopted out, but mostly we provide rest-of-their-life care for old dogs who are often regarded as a bit too infirm or too expensive to be good candidates. Like Best Friends, if we cannot find the proper home, we provide safe and loving surroundings, no crates or kennels but plenty of beds and couches, for the rest of their lives.
How is your community doing when it comes to lifesaving?
Our partners support each other and inspire their own communities to increase lifesaving of dogs and cats across the country.
