Sanctuary

Senior dogs get full time, expert care in a home-like setting on 6 beautiful acres in New Tripoli, PA. Our resident dogs find great homes or live out their golden years here.

Dog School

Just like world-class senior center residents, our pups make friends, learn skills, and enjoy daily enrichment. They get to decompress while becoming even better adoption candidates.

Human School

Animal lovers are invited to our on-site and virtual events focused on skills like dog care, body language, and positive reinforcement. Come learn, make friends, and snuggle with dogs.

The Urgent Problem

ONLY 25% OF SENIOR DOGS EVER GET ADOPTED.

Not only do they struggle in shelters because of their physical needs, they're also often grieving the loss of their loved ones after a lifetime spent together.

Thanks to their wisdom, senior pups make for perfect companions. And yet, they tend to be overlooked and forgotten.

Through no fault of their own, the dogs who need us most live out the rest of their lives alone.

At Scarlet Heart, we've set out to make dogs' golden years truly golden! Will you join us in our dogged pursuit?
