Programs That Change Lives
Each program at God Made Dogs is designed to give senior dogs the care, love, and advocacy they deserve.
Senior Dog Rescue
Our rescue program pulls senior dogs aged 7+ from high-kill shelters, emergency situations, and owner surrenders across Colorado. Each dog receives an immediate veterinary evaluation, emergency treatment if needed, and placement into our foster network within 48 hours of intake.

Foster Care Network
Our network of 50+ foster families provides temporary, loving homes for rescue dogs as they recover and prepare for adoption. Foster families receive all supplies, veterinary coverage, and 24/7 support from our team. Fostering is the heart of what makes our rescue work.

Forever Home Adoptions
Our adoption process is thoughtful and personalized. We conduct home visits, lifestyle assessments, and meet-and-greets to ensure the best match between dog and family. Adoption fees cover spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and a starter kit of supplies.

Community Outreach & Education
We visit schools, community centers, and senior living facilities to educate people about the joys of senior dog adoption. Our therapy dog visits bring smiles and comfort to nursing homes and hospitals, while our school programs teach kids about compassion and responsible pet ownership.

Senior Dog Wellness Fund
Many of our dogs require ongoing medical care — from arthritis management to dental work to chronic condition treatment. Our wellness fund ensures no dog is ever turned away because of the cost of care. Donors can sponsor a specific dog's medical needs or contribute to the general fund.

Volunteer Corps
Our volunteers are the backbone of God Made Dogs. From transport driving to event coordination to dog walking and socialization — there are dozens of ways to give your time. New volunteer orientations are held monthly, and no experience is required — just a love for dogs.
