Please Read IMPORTANT INFORMATION about Senior Pet Safety Net pets:

The Senior Pet Safety Net Email is a COURTESY POSTING for senior or special needs dogs or cats who need a home. This is a service offered by HWAH to help senior dogs or cats in need when HWAH is not able to accept them into the HWAH program.

If you have questions about, or an interest in, the featured pet, please contact the person indicated in the Safety Net email.

Safety Net Pets are not HWAH Residents. Once a Pet becomes a HWAH Resident, our commitment is that they will remain at HWAH for their entire life. They will not be put up for adoption.

As always we are grateful for your support and your assistance in helping these pets in need by sharing their plight with anyone you feel might be interested.

HWAH truly believes:

"Saving one dog might not change the world.
But, surely for that one dog the world will change forever."

No Dogs Allowed? Not Good News For Buster

If you're reading this, you probably can't imagine life without at least one dog or cat. The idea of living someplace that doesn't welcome pets would be unthinkable.

Now imagine how Buster would feel about it! This 12 year old Basset & Springer mix is the most likable dog you can imagine. Great with other dogs, cats and kids, Buster never gets aggressive. He'll understand if you have to leave him behind; well-housebroken, wouldn't dream of getting on the furniture unless you invite him. He's just been vetted and vaccinated and has no health issues so he's good to go.

Unfortunately he must go, because his home in Washington DC is being sold out from under him, and his owner's new home doesn't allow dogs. Take a good look into Buster's big brown eyes -- and imagine how happy they'll be when he sees his new home. Please share this today and help Buster!

Abby: Because

She's A Beagle

We introduced Abby here a couple weeks ago. We're reprinting her here now because her contact information has changed, and we want to give this sweetie every chance to find a happy new forever home.

Abby is a gorgeous 11-year old tri-color Beagle who is always ready to go for a walk. She's sociable with other dogs, kids and adults.

Beagles are known for hunting, and they aren't always willing to take your word for it when the hunt is over. So when Abby smells something she doesn't always come when called. Aside from that she's playful, lovable, and happily crate-trained. (She's been known to get carsick if she travels on a full stomach.)

Abby is on a few regular meds -- levothyroxine for her thyroid, famotidine for acid reflux, and benazapril. She's somewhat housebroken and trained on puddle pads.

Abby's owner is handicapped and is relocating from their longtime home in Frederick, Maryland to a rental that is more handicap-friendly. But the new apartment doesn't take dogs, so we're anxious to get this beautiful Beagle settled in a new home immediately.

ABBY

Age: 11

Breed: Beagle

Gender: Female (spayed)

Vaccinations: Up-to-date

Medical conditions: Thyroid, acid reflux. Treated with levothyroxine, famotidine and benzapril. Eats prescription dog food to avoid pancreatitis.
