Muttville rescues at least 80 senior dogs a month. In an emergency like last year’s holiday crisis, we have been able to stretch to as many as 100 in 10 days. How can we save so many senior dogs – over 1,000 a year? Because of fans and supporters like you! Your support makes it possible to change the fate of dogs who, not that long ago, would have been considered “unadoptable” and immediately euthanized.

About us
Muttville is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to improving the lives of senior dogs. On a local level, Muttville rescues senior dogs and finds them new homes or gives them hospice. On a global level, Muttville provides information about caring for older dogs and support for people who do. Through associations with shelters and other animal organizations, Muttville finds senior dogs that have been given up and are not likely to find adopted homes. Through outreach and networking, Muttville finds suitable new homes for these dogs. Ultimately, Muttville will have its own facility to house dogs that are not yet placed, or that are unlikely to be placed. Muttville was started in 2007 by Sherri Franklin, a longtime animal advocate and rescue worker. Sherri has spent years rescuing dogs, especially senior dogs. She recognized that the need was greater than she as an individual could ever address. So she decided to start Muttville, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of older dogs through foster, adoption, education, and community.
