Check out the post from The Grey Muzzle Organization about one of our senior dogs and her owner. SPAN appreciates the support provided by their agency and the $20,000 grant they gave us to help support older dogs like Angie.

Angie is a 9-year-old senior pup whose whole world revolves around her best friend—her 74-year-old human dad. For years, they’ve faced tremendous housing instability, even coming close to living in their truck. But no matter what, he never considered giving her up.

💬 “I’d rather be homeless than live without Angie.”
That’s the love we work to protect. ❤️

Through the support of The Grey Muzzle Organization, Seniors Pet Assistance Network (SPAN) was able to cover Angie’s senior wellness check and ensure she was up-to-date on all required vaccines. This critical help wasn’t just about her health—it was the key to securing permanent housing.

📋 Without proof of vaccinations, her dad wouldn’t have been accepted into the housing program. Thanks to grant funding, Angie got the care she needed—and the paperwork that opened the door to a safer, more stable life for them both.

💛 Together, they’re now settling into a new home—healthy, safe, and still side by side.
