Elvis
“Hey there! I go by the name of Elvis, and I’m not your typical hound dog – I’m actually a fabulous Pointer mix! While I’m incredibly friendly towards both dogs and people, I must admit I’m not particularly fond of our feline friends. Affection runs deep in me, and I’ll enthusiastically place my paws on your shoulders to share a hug or two. Whether it’s engaging in playtime or embarking on outdoor escapades (I’d excel as a hiking buddy), I’m your guy. Not to brag, but I’m quite the food enthusiast and that’s definitely a motivator for me. I do want to mention that I’m a one-eyed pup, but don’t be fooled – it hasn’t hindered my zest for life in the slightest. If you’re on the hunt for a new companion, I humbly toss my name into the ring for your consideration!”
Elvis’s treats are sponsored by James & Rose Riggle. Thank you, James & Rose!
Hi, Future Geezer Guardian!
Our primary goal at OFSDS is to find lifelong placements for senior dogs where they can live the remainder of their lives as a part of a family. Most of our Old Friends that you see at the Sanctuary are available through our forever foster program.
Through sponsorships, donations, and grants, we provide medical care and basic needs to the dogs living in forever foster homes.
Being a Geezer Guardian to an Old Friend is different than fostering for other rescues in that we hope that our Guardians will be forever homes for the remainder of their Geezer’s life. Geezer Guardians must be within 100 miles of Mt. Juliet, TN, as we expect our Old Friends to continue seeing our in-house veterinarian. If you live outside our 100-mile radius and would like to adopt a senior dog, we recommend contacting your local shelter as there are many senior dogs in need of loving retirement homes. You may also consider sponsoring an Old Friend by clicking “Sponsor” on that Old Friend’s profile page!
Because our main goal is to place senior dogs in safe, lifetime homes, we do not charge any fees. For more information or to apply to be a Geezer Guardian, click here.
