Grey Muzzle Authors and Interviews

When three nuns came to a rescue in New York and asked for a dog "no one is going to want," they were introduced to Remy, a 9-year-old Pit Bull. Thus begins just one of the wonderful stories of senior rescue dogs in My Old Dog, a new book by Laura Coffey with photos from Lori Fusaro.

Project Unconditional is photographer Jane Sobel Klonsky's tribute to the love we share with our older dogs. The poignant joy of her photos reminds us that the work Grey Muzzle grantees do on behalf of abandoned dogs results in dogs that find care, a home, and someone who loves them unconditionally.

The primary form of communication for dogs is body language. It is important for you to learn more about this language, especially if you are caring for senior dogs, in order to understand their changing needs. It is up to you to notice the signs and signals that indicate pain and discomfort.

Old Dog Haven: Every Old Dog Has a Story to Tell is a collection of 36 stories of senior dogs who went from neglected and abandoned to valued family member through Old Dog Haven’s network of foster homes and adopters. Author Ardeth De Vries discusses her book and tells us more about Old Dog Haven's work.
