Maggie Jolene
“Hi, I’m Maggie Jo! I’m a bit of a nervous girl with a heart of gold. I’ve mastered commands like heel, sit, down, stay, come, look, quiet, drop it, and let’s go. When my people leave, I get a little anxious, so I’d feel more secure in a crate or a designated area while they’re away. While I’m not a huge fan of other dogs, I might warm up to the right canine companion with some patience and training. Grooming and baths are a breeze for me, and I walk nicely on a leash. Although I enjoy walks, I much prefer playing in the yard with you and getting some one-on-one cuddle time. I can be a bit vocal and sometimes pull on walks, but I’m working on these behaviors with my people. With a little love and understanding, I’ll be your loyal and affectionate companion! I’m open to meet and greets, so come on down!”

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.
