ADOPTED & LOVED 🩷 When Frankie met Lena, he showcased his best self. He got some belly rubs, then napped for the rest of their meeting, requiring treats to wake him up. When our silly stubborn Corgi refused to walk to the car in the rain, Lena simply picked him up & carried him toward his new life.🩷

Say hello to our newest senior, Raven.🖤 This sweet 10 year old gal is settling into Young at Heart, where she'll get plenty of rest, love, and the care she deserves.

Being rescued means new lives, new adventures, and new friends! Dusty and Parker, two of our newest senior pups rescued from two separate shelters, enjoyed their first meet up after being declared “cootie-free” by the vet. They are both such Good Boys. We are so happy get their 2nd chance with us! ❤️

Wide-eyed and ready to cause a lil trouble 👀 💚 Percy, age 9 (adoptable)

When 7 year old Teddy began having tummy troubles, his owner requested he be euthanized. Thankfully, the vet saw a gentle, loving cat who just needed some support so they took him into their care instead. The vet helped Teddy feel better, and then helped him find his way to us! Welcome Teddy! 🤎

Meet 8-year-old Parker! 🩷 Just rescued from a shelter in southern Illinois where his “time was up”, he is now settling in with us and learning about the good life! He’s a very smart boy - knows sit, shake, and is very good on a leash. Loves belly rubs, too! He’s the goodest boy! 📍Woodstock IL

Everyone say Hi to Dusty! 👋 Our newest ol’ boy was rescued from a crowded shelter in Southern IL where he was “out of time”. Now he’s soaking up all the love, happily climbing into laps (yes, he thinks he fits!), and starting the next chapter of his new life. We love him already! 🥰 📍Woodstock IL

“Whatcha doin’?” - Bob (age 11, adoptable) 📍Woodstock IL

What's a mob boss without his loyal crew? Big Papa runs this organization. Lexi and Vinnie make sure everyone stays... cooperative. 😎

“Can I have s’more please?” 🥹 - Big Papa (We totally caved - wouldn’t you? )

When Becky applied to volunteer, she wrote "Helping a dog or cat have a good day & feel love would be very rewarding. I wish every animal had someone to care for them & love them." Since then, Becky has volunteered nearly EVERY day, making our senior pets' lives brighter. ❤️ #NotAllHeroesWearCapes

12-year-old Mo is just hanging out🙃 This goofy poodle mix is equal parts zoomies & snuggles. He loves people, other small dogs, and has never met a lap he didn't want to curl up in (or completely flop upside down across). Think Mo is your kind of pup? adoptaseniorpet.com/adopt 📍 Woodstock, IL

HAPPY 22nd BIRTHDAY, CONNER! 🎉 Adopted from YAH over 14 years ago, Conner has been with his family for all the everyday little moments that make up life. To celebrate his big day, Conner enjoyed a tuna birthday cake, which he happily devoured and then asked for seconds. Happy Birthday, Conner! ❤️🎂
