Sunset Seniors is a truly unique sanctuary concept for elder dogs. At our sanctuary the dogs live together in a cage-free environment. Located in the pristine Driftless Area of Southwest Wisconsin, our dogs have room to run and play. This open design ensures that they are stress-free, happy and sleep in warm beds at night.  Too often older dogs are surrendered to shelters because their owners can no longer care for them .... older dogs have special needs and are more difficult to adopt. Older owners may have to surrender the dogs due to their own illnesses, death or other challenging circumstances.  Our mission is to provide a caring, long-term home for senior dogs whose owners can no longer care for them. Owners can designate their preference for seeking foster/adoptive homes for their dogs, or having them live out their lives at the sanctuary. t Nursery FarmEvidence suggests that dogs become stressed by standard rescue kennel facilities. It is especially stressful for a senior dog who has spent their entire life with their owners and now find themselves in a strange or unfamiliar environment. Our cage-free environment is designed to minimize the stress of transitioning to a new living situation and allow the dog to bond with other senior dogs in a caring, home-like environment.
