Ketchup
“Hi there! My name is Ketchup(left). I was originally a part of a bonded pair with my bff Potato(right). Unfortunately she has passed on, but I am still looking for my forever home! I am a medium sized beagle (35 lbs) and I will be honest, I’m a pretty high maintanence guy. I get PT and medicated baths weekly. How else am I supposed to look this good? Here are some other facts about me:
Potty trained ✔
Good with calmer dogs ✔
Love to be outside, but cannot walk far due to arthritis (I love riding in a stroller) ✔
Will have to come back to the sanctuary weekly ✔
If I sound like your cup of tea, let’s meet!”

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.
