Woodys Place - Senior German Shepherd Sanctuary

My experience at Woody's Place has been nothing short of rewarding. I admire how Dawn pours her heart into caring for every single senior German Shepherd who arrives there in need of love and shelter. She goes above and beyond, from taking them on walks multiple times a day to preparing healthy meals tailored just for them! It warmed my heart to see how happy and content these dogs are under her care—it's clear she treats each one as if they've always been hers. While I’ve seen some volunteers come and go, Dawn remains unwavering in her mission. This sanctuary shines brightly as a beacon of hope for older German Shepherds across our community!

The world is a better place because of Woody's place. The love and care that goes into every senior resident doggo is absolutely heartwarming.

I love the work you do for and with this majestic breed. You go over and above for each beautiful rescue that comes through your doors. Bless you for the amazing work you do ❤️

I think most people have no idea what is involved in caring for more than one or two dogs, especially older dogs with disabilities. Then you have the fund raising and grounds keeping and house cleaning. Plus, there are cats on the premises to care for. The energy, compassion, love and attention provided is beyond belief. People use the word "Hero" very liberally but in this case, Dawn is not only a hero but also an angel.

I have followed Dawn and the great work she does at the sanctuary for years. Her dedication to the older German shepherds in her care is amazing and inspiring. She truly loves these dogs and wants the best for them.

I love watching and helping Woody’s Place-Senior German Shepherd Sanctuary. Having an older dog is difficult and rewarding at the same time. Woodys place offers a loving enriched sanctuary for senior German shepherds that would otherwise be discarded.

This is by far one of the best nonprofit organizations that I've ever been associated with. Besides this being near and dear to my heart having owned several GSD's over the years, the work that Woody's Place does is just so heart warming and the care they provide to these senior companions is just stellar! I lost my last GSD a couple of years ago and this organization has taken front row for me. I can donate to them in place of the expense I no longer have being pet-free right now. I wish I lived closer to volunteer!

Woody's Place provides an exceptionally soft place for older GSDs to land when they have nowhere else to go.

I love Woody's Place. It is a sanctuary that provides German Shepherds a loving home to live out their life with the dignity they so richly deserve. I follow Dawn on Facebook where she provides insights into the lives of the dogs and how they're doing. She also provides vital information on nutrition, medical issues, and more. On the website she provides podcasts with experts discussing pertinent information pertaining and unique to German Shepherds as well as other issues such as starting a rescue. The website also has a blog section, which provides recipes for senior dogs, information about medical issues concerning senior dogs, and much more. There is also a quick resource page that has a link to specific topics. But, most importantly, Woody's Place saves the lives of beautiful German Shepherds who were discarded by their owner and society because they were too old and/or sick. This is a wonderful nonprofit that deserves to be recognized. I am glad I donate several times each year because I know the money goes to a wonderful and deserving cause.

Woodys Senior Shepherd Sanctuary has helped over the years so many wonderful older dogs that deserve to live their last years in a caring place like Woodys. So many needy dogs out there, and Woodys helps as many as they can. I have personally had rescue GSD most of my life and this breed will always be close to my heart. When I see and hear about older shepherds being dumped at shelters, my heart breaks. Without places like Woodys who help these older dogs, their life would be poor. All rescues are struggling with so many dogs needing to be taken in, and financially needing help. We are such a throw away society for our animals, it is so sad. Woodys deserves our support, so they can continue rescuing this wonderful breed.

We adopted a senior German Shepherd 2 years ago named Waylon, after reading about Woodys Place. He was one day away from being euthanized. He brings such joy to our lives every day! Woodys Place is such an inspiration to us with amazing dedication to saving German Shepherds and getting the word out about how amazing this particular breed of dog is. We love Woodys Place!

Woodys place senior German shepherd rescue is not just a sanctuary but an amazing home for these old pups. They truly get to live out their senior days with comfort, care and love. The knowledge and kindness shared with these dogs everyday warms my heart. Senior shepherd will always have my heart and I am so thankful for Woodys!

As a German Shepherd lover, I found this incredible non-profit on social media and absolutely adore following the residents and their stories. This beautiful sanctuary provides an incredible environment for these smart, emotional and devoted dogs to live out their lives when they were otherwise abandoned or forgotten. They are provided with a deeply loving home and the best care possible. I love to support the work this sanctuary does!!

I love what watching the seniors of the sanctuary live their best lives. I have followed the sanctuary for many yeafs.

I have been following Woody’s place for about a year. They give homes to senior German Sheoherds. I help rescue and it is hard enough to try and save a young German Shepherd. You can tell these people truly care about these senior fur babies . They are amazing

We donated our dog’s wheel cart after he passed away. It was so heartwarming to see the great work they do there. Senior Shepherd’s in the best of situations require special care. But a number of the dogs at Woodys were rescued from bad situations. Dawn, who runs the sanctuary is one of the kindest people I have ever met, an Angel on Earth for certain.

Woodys is absolutely phenomenal, taking in sweet senior dogs who need a nice place to retire! They also help find homes for other senior shepherds, which is how we found one of our dogs, Frieda.

Extremely helpful advice on care for elder dogs. Love and support their mission

As an officer of a dog rescue my sister runs, I know how satisfying and heartbreaking rescue can be. I own 2 GSD’s, and have been following Woody’s Place for many years. These are old shepherds that have been tossed aside for a variety of reasons. Woody’s gives these old dogs a warm, loving, and caring place to call home for the rest of their lives. Sometimes only a few weeks, or months. They care deeply for these dogs, and take excellent care of them, from the food they eat, daily outside walks, and excellent veterinary care. I follow them with joy for the dogs, and cry when they pass. Rescue is a tough job, and Woody’s Place does it right.

I have followed Woodys on FB for years and they do great work in giving senior shepherds who have been dumped or surrendered a peaceful and happy life for their remaining time on this earth. Having a senior shepherd myself I am well aware of the time and cost of caring for these wonderful souls.

I think it’s great the amount of care and time and affection they put into the care of their furry family members !

Great place! Learned so much from them when caring for my senior shepherd. Now that she is gone I love seeing all the old pups they care for living out their last months in a loving and caring home.

This is a wonderful and noble nonprofit. She welcomes senior German Shepherds to live out the rest of their lives with dignity and peace. Providing them with medical attention tion when needed and healthy food for older Shepherds. They are loved and well taken care of. It says a lot about their values rescuing these older dogs who most overlook and don't want the hassle to take care of older dogs and health issues. We should have more of these types of rescues and sancutaries. To cater to senior German Sheperds who have nowhere to go to live out the rest of their lives loved.

Woodys is one of the best sanctuaries around they take in the ones no one wants and give them the best care and love that a dog could ask for.

Woodys place goes above and beyond for these shepherds. The amount of time and energy they put into making sure these furbabies live the best life possible, are astronomical! Whenever I am able, I donate to this place because I know the wonderful work they are doing.

I see firsthand how well the dogs are treated and the hard work they put in . I should know because I’m Mr. Woody’s Place.

They give old German Shepherd Dogs a forever home with love and care.

I am a longtime German Shepherd owner and lover and I know how special and loyal these dogs are. It always breaks my heart to see them in shelters, especially older shepherds as older dogs are always harder to place. Woody’s Place is a beacon of light and hope for senior German Shepherds who find themselves without a loving home. I have supported them for years and will continue to do so for as long as I am able. Bless you Woody’s Place and all that you do!

Woody's Place is a wonderful place full of wonderful GSD's, cats, people and an assortment of other animals that needed a home. Dawn and her husband are doing a great service for elderly GSD's. It's not an easy job emotionally or physically, I know from experience. When I visited, I could just feel the love they have for all the animals in their care.

This sanctuary is the best! I love to watch each senior get the life and care that they deserve in their golden years. Too many think old dogs are disposable but Woody's cherishes every moment. ❤️

Woody's Place has a wealth of information on their website and other social media pages regarding the care of senior German Shepherds. The information was invaluable to me while I cared for my senior German Shepherd. You can feel the love coming through while watching the daily videos.

I have been involved with helping German Shepherd Rescues for many years as well as being a Humane Educator for my local Humane Society. I have seen first had how senior dogs are overlooked and shut down. Woodys Place is a wonderful sanctuary that cares and gives these seniors the love, medical assistance and freedom to live out their golden years in harmony and grace.

You can tell the love they have for what they do just from the posts they put online. True dedications for all their dogs. If I was a senior puppy I would like spending the rest of my days there.

WPSGSS is top notch small senior GSD Sanctuary/rescue in PA. I have followed and donated to them for years now. The dogs live out the remaining years of their lives being fed premium if not home-cooked meals. They get to take walks through beautiful trails on the property multiple times a day. They are all groomed by Dawn at the Sanctuary on regular basis. They receive any and all veterinarian care needed.
The thing I love most is the almost daily videos of the pack posted to social media. You find yourself feeling like you know these souls so well although you've never met in person. You cry when there is a loss, you cheer when a new dog is welcomed to their forever home. And once in a while, you giggle at the joy observed through the dogs expression/action.
There is also a podcast called Life with old dogs. This is a huge help for someone who finds themselves in similar situations...but it also speaks the truth of what the mission statement is and the difficulties faced, whether it be financial, emotional or otherwise.
Please support them. If ever was a legit, completely dedicated and genuine cause,...Woodys Place for Senior German Shepherd Sanctuary is it!

What a great organization. Their work is truly amazing with all that they do to help, save and give Senior Shepherds the best lives possible. I am so happy when I see their posts and read the wonderful stories they share for these lovable dogs. ❤️

I have used Woodys Place as an invaluable resource for taking care of my aging German Shepherd. I’m thoroughly impressed with the work they do and the use of my donations.

This sanctuary does the hard work of taking in seniors in order to let them live their best life for their remaining days. Whether it be days, months, or years, they love these German Shepherds and care for these German Shepherds until the end. To me that means the world to these furry family members and is heartbreaking at the end for the human family and even the other Sheps. That is hard! They do it selflessly and wonderfully every time! Much admiration for Dawn, Mr. Woody, and the pups.

What a wonderful organization! Woody's takes in the old souls and gives them the love, peace, and grace to live out the remainder of their years. It takes very special hearts to care for the most vulnerable and they truly are blessed hands.

Fantastic people who help a niche that , for the most part goes unnoticed, the elderly … love what they do

Awesome place that does great work for senior german shepherds!

A great resource of information to keep your older dog healthy and happy. My 9 yr old rescue GSD had DM. Woody's Place provided me with info about nutrition, exercise, general health and mobility to make Stella's last few years happy and comfortable. Hot pink Walk'n Wheels made her the hit of the neighborhood. Thanks Dawn and Woody's Place Senior Sanctuary ❤️❤️‼️‼️

Woody’s Place takes in senior German shepherds that have found themselves in need of a home. Most come in with medical attention needed from years of neglect. The Sanctuary is such a wonderful space for the pups to live out their golden years at. Dawn is incredible with the work that she does with them and is very transparent and documents the residents lives for the community to see and share in the experience. Dawn is incredibly knowledgeable and so loving with every single resident she has. As you can imagine senior medical dogs have costs associated with to give them medical care and Woodys is always very thoughtful and proactive in getting them care and can always use donations to help. Please give their page a look as it’s also very informative about senior German shepherds in general along with content of the current residents at the sanctuary.

Their heart-centered efforts are transparent! I've been following them for a few years now on Facebook and there are daily updates about their senior German shepherds including vet visits, gifts received from donors, and weather conditions at the sanctuary. Every day that they post a video (frequently ) I see Dawn walking the "residents" and narrating their day to day antics, health and activities. It is wonderful to see how well cared for these dogs are and I can't think of a better nonprofit for senior dogs! I've had larger dogs my entire adult life (59 now!) and my own experience with such dogs gives me the experience to comment so highly of their facility.

Woody’s Place is a wonderful organization that allows the dogs to live their best possible life for their remaining years. They go above and beyond for each of the dogs in their care.

I've helped out with the dogs over the years and can tell you for sure that they are VERY well cared for and treated like family.

There aren't any cages. All the dogs live together and get along, and that's because of Dawn. She knows how to make sure that, for the most, they're aren't any problems.

All the dogs get lots of exercise throughout the day. Some of them can only walk a little bit, and others can run through the woods. Woody's Place is fully fenced in, so they pretty much get to do what they want while under supervision outside.

Even the food they get is made right there by Dawn!

All the dogs go to the vet regularly, and those who need extra help, like Nona, who was heartworm + get the help they need. It's like money is no object.

When I die. I want to come back and be a dog at Woody's Place.

Woody's Place is a dream come true for older German Shepherds who find themselves homeless for one reason or another.

They are a true sanctuary, meaning that once the dog arrives at Woody's Place, they stay there until they cross the rainbow bridge, and during that time, they receive all the love and care they could ever want.

I have been following along with Brutus's story. He was left in a shelter in New Jersey by his family when he was 12 years old, and he was skin and bones. He was so sad and confused while at the shelter but never acted out or tried to bite anyone.

With no time left for Brutus, Woody's Place agreed to take him. I was thrilled to see him go and now get the best care he's probably ever had in his life!

I also love how Dawn from Woody's Place keeps us all up to date on the "Woody's Place residents' as she calls them, through social media and the newsletter.

Keep up the good work, Woody's Place!

Love Love Love Woody’s Place. Dawn does a miraculous job taking care of the senior shepherds she has rescued. Her care includes home cooked meals 2x a day and lots of outdoor activities. I follow her instagrams and they always make me smile. Dawn brings sunshine to everyone’s lives.

WPSGSS is an awesome place. It is truly a sanctuary for Senior GSD to live out their days. The Senior dogs get the best of care. Great food formulated for the needs of the individual dogs, excersise, comfy beds and loads of love and attention.

Woody's Place is all in with heart and spirit with each German Shepherd they care for. Brandi has continued to have some very great days amongst some tough ones being the oldest senior at Woody's Place. Last week she joined all the dogs on a walk for the first time in a month... She gets hand fed when needed and also received a special brace to help her walk with less pain. Another great example is when Savvy arrived at the sanctuary, she had a very bad autoimmune disease and lost all of her hair on her belly in addition to episodes of difficult mobility in her joints. With trips to the vet and treating her holistically, within 6 months Savvy had a whole belly of new hair growth! She also received a mobility game changing leg brace custom made in Austria to help keep her active and the first one out of the Gate in most of the instagram video's that are posted!! Nona is another example of a dog thriving after months of aggression and seemingly discontented the majority of her day. With patience and more patience, Nona is doing better each week. There are no limits that Woody's Place with regards to taking care of the most challenging or aging German Shepherds. They will try and try again until there is a solution for any issue they may encounter. Every senior German Shepherd should get to live their last days with so much love and attention. LOVe LOVE LOVe following their instagram page!

Great place for senior shepherds! They give a home to senior shepherds that others have discarded! They know a shelter is no place for a senior shepherd so they treat them like their own and give them warm beds, great food, healthcare and loads of exercise and love. In turn they get devotion and tons of kisses. The videos they post are amazing and allow us to be part of the journey! Support the shepherds this breed supports their humans.

I love Woodys place they are always helping out dogs. Nona was in a kill shelter in NC and she was transported there and she really looks amazing since they have taken such good
care of her. getting her much-needed medical care. She doesn’t even look like the same dog that she did a year ago. Just Rescue is very knowledgeable about the breed and is always trying to educate people with informational videos recipes and how twos to help the health of your animals.

I have been following Woody's Place Senior German Shepherd Sanctuary on Facebook for a couple of years now. I had two GSD's that were up in age (13 & 14) and they helped me identify and learn what is involved when you have a large, Senior Shepherd. Seeing the love and care that they give, as well as the other animals on their property, is heartwarming! The Senior German Shepherds get great nutrition, exercise, and most of all, love! I donate when I am able because I know they are making a difference in the lives of these wonderful old dogs.

This amazing rescue specializes in senior German Shepard Dogs. With their specialty these residents are in the highest care from many problems this breed may develop, like hip dysplasia. These special doggy’s have lots of friends who get to roam the field and forest, take car rides for some treats , have their own birthday party, to sometimes finding some kitty food to steal. A beautiful, peaceful, fun life that’s full of love are created for these old German shepherds dogs in their ending years.

This non profit organization is amazing. They help so many senior German shepherds that do not have a home in their elderly years. The love and compassion for these babies is incredible. Kudos to Woody"s place for helping these lost souls live out the rest of their time in harmony.

❤️❤️ what a blessing. German Sheppard are very loyal and loving dogs. This organization is a blessing to have for our loyal family members❤️❤️

They are wonderful people with great hearts. They do everything in their power to help animals

Woody's Place Senior German Shepard Sanctuary is a phenomenal place! All the dogs have their own large bed, their own toys to play with, a huge fenced-in yard to play in. They are taken on a nice walk in the woods 2 or 3 times a day. They have regular maintained appointments at the vets as well as being taken to the vets immediately if they become sick. When they get sick they receive home cooked food especially for them. I could go on and on but you really have to see it for yourself. Best of all they get alot of love and attention. Just so you know the woman who founded and runs Woody's puts her whole heart and soul into these dogs.

Such great people! They truly care about giving the dogs the best life and making sure they are loved.

Dawn is an amazing person with a heart of gold and a love for senior German Shepherds. Thanks to her and Woody's Place I fostered and was able to share my home with a sweet senior shepherd, Rocko, that quickly became one of our pack. The sanctuary is a beautiful place with lots of room for the dogs to run and explore. Any dog that makes it to Woody's will live it's best life for the time they are with Dawn. I am honored to volunteer and to have met Dawn and gotten to be part of such a great organization.

There couldn't be a better place for a senior German Sheppard. The care and love they receive is probably the best of their entire life. Woodys is the very best at what they do.

Amazing organization! Thank you for all you do for the shepherds!

Great people with a true love for senior German shepherds. They go far above and beyond to care for and promote adoptions of the seniors not only from their own but other organizations in the area. I would recommend woodys place to anyone as a first option to find the perfect gsd.

Awesome organization that truly cares about, and for, senior German Shepherds. Woodys place has real compassion for these senior dogs, and they make sure they get to enjoy their golden years.( Whether through adoption to a well suited furever home or staying at the Sanctuary). At the Sanctuary they are well fed with quality food, have toys to play with and a generous size property to walk for exercise. They also receive necessary medical care and medications as needed. Woodys Place provides this amazing service for these senior German shepherds through its volunteer staff and generous donations from people who care for this cause.

Best dog rescue ever! I have seen this place personally and the dogs are very happy and well taken care of.

I am a volunteer with Woodys and love what it stands for
Dawn is a wonderful caretaker of these abandoned and sometimes ill dogs
She gives them wonderful medical care and they are part of her household living inside with her and her husband and their rescued cats. She not only shows them love and compassion in their final years she is there with them at the very end
They are lucky dogs for sure

Such a wonderful sanctuary for senior shepherds! Dawn goes above and beyond keeping the seniors at Woodys Place healthy, happy, exercised, and loved beyond love! If I were a senior Shepherd, I can only hope I would end up at Woodys Place! The sanctuary is beautiful and anything the seniors need they get!

Seeing the way the dogs at Woody's Place is amazing. They get home cooked meals, love, and a place to call home. Dawn and her team are exceptional. They go above and beyond for these dogs. Some of the dogs came from bad situations and others whose owners couldn't care for them anymore, but everyone one of them ends up with the love and care they deserve. I've personally seen the hard work that goes into caring for these dogs, and it's not for the weak. It takes strong caring people to care for these senior GSDs and the members of Woody's Place are all that and more!

Woodys place is nothing short of incredible. They take senior German Shepherds and give them a chance to enjoy the remaining years. They take the utmost care of the dogs and provide so many opportunities for some that truly needed them.

I am a donor to and supporter of Woody’s Place because they impressed me so much with their forever love and care of older German Shepherds, even those with medical issues. These dogs receive great food, great medical care, exercise, and amazing living conditions. These are dogs no one else wants but who deserve so much. The staff is wonderful and even have birthday parties for the dogs. I can’t say enough about Woody’s Place!

This charity is amazing. I follow them from Missouri. I wish I was closer so I could volunteer. They rescue senior dogs and treat them as family for the remaining life they have. They are an all GSD senior rescue and to say I have the up most respect is an understatement. This is a home, well a small farm. They grow organic food for the dogs, fresh eggs from the chickens & fresh milk from the goats. Each meal is hand made with love and all these ingredients and all the treats are hand made as well. This is a loving home enviroment, not kennel runs. This couple works and cares for the seniors. Which means some times a morning of cleaning up a potty mess & I dont just mean urine, because some of the GSD have DM ( a cruel disease). Each dog has their own bed and a mountian of toys. This house/charity is 100 full of love. She also runs a Shepherd Shoppe so you can have beautiful items. She walks these beauties every day on the property & Mr Woody's place can be seen snow blowing paths in the winter, just for the senior GSDs. Trust me they are not just walked on thier beautiful property that is 100% fenced in for the safety of the seniors, they also get one on one time or group walks at a beautiful park. Mr Woody's place also make a beautiful bridge for the GSD that are in wheels so they could cross the creek. This lady even post daily to share the entire life of these beautiful seniors, we get to see their walks, birthdays parties, donation reveals, making of treats & home cooked meals or just time in the houae or yard. She has a pod cast for caring for seniors and a web page of support for others with DM. She even shares the raw emotions of lossing one of her seniors, we get to be a part of the journey as well because onceyou join the FB page you love them too. Each day we get an update of them & when they go to the vet and also the sad ending when they pass. She and her husband and all the volunteers are amazing. To take in the seniors when they are failed by the ones that where to love them to the end. These are the most beautiful people I have ever come across. Their hearts are large...to take dogs knowing that a heart break when they pass is guaranteed, but take them any way and give them the best life that all dogs deserve. Sometimes the GSDs stays are short and some are long, but the one thing that we all know that loves this Charity is that each one is more than loved and gets the best end to their lives that they more than deserve. ������

Dawn does amazing work with abandoned senior shepherds

Woody's Place is an amazing sanctuary that spends countless hours saving senior German Shepherds. Dawn and her team of volunteers guaranteed these abandoned dogs know love right to the end. The dedication of this sanctuary ensures the health and safety of these animals and works with other rescues with the same passion. I love watching how they care for the dogs thru videos they share. Woody's Place is a top notch Sanctuary. Love this place!!

This place is located near my home and I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Dawn a few times. One particular time was helping rescue a young pup that was found wandering on a busy road. Thanks to her this pup got a second chance
The pups at Woody’s Place are some of the luckiest dogs around. They are so blessed to spend their late years with her and Mr Woody’s Place.

I have witnessed the love & care Dawn gives these senior dogs that would otherwise be mistreated or put down. Woody’s Place is a true sanctuary for them as well as other animals! ❤️

As a German Shepherd lover (and owner) I am so proud of the work done by Woody's Place! Caring for Senior GSD's , many with severe medical issues is no easy task. The owners and volunteers at WPSGSS work tirelessly every day to make sure the resident dogs there get the best care possible. They cook delicious meals, bathe, brush, and exercise them just to name a few things. As an animal lover I am happy to support WPSGSS as much as I can. I have purchased items from the German Shepherd Shoppe and have donated to various medical procedures for specific dogs on occasion. Woody's Place is most definitely a great Non-profit. The best of the best!

I became interested in this rescue group when friends of mine were looking for a new dog, so I subscribed to their FaceBook feed. I’ve never had a GSD in my family but have several friends who are GSD enthusiasts. I’m very impressed with the hope-filled stories of senior dogs living the good life with the volunteers. It’s nice to see good people taking care of good old dogs. This organization is a bright spot on social media. May God bless the dog people!

The pups that come to live at Woodys Place are such lucky pups! They live in a beautiful home where the are fed top notch food, have their own comfy beds, toys, the company of other dogs and people. They are all taken for their vet visits and receive their medication. They are walked frequently during the day in their amazing fenced in property and in the woods. The staff at Woodys Place truly do a fantastic job. They give each dog lots of attention just as if they were their own. There is no doubt Woody's Place dogs live out their lives in a wonderful place!

Woody's Place Senior German Shepherd Sanctuary provides us all with an example of how animals should be loved. From many different backgrounds and circumstances come Senior GSD to find their forever respite. These "Golden Shepherds " find their rest as a loved member of my Sister, Dawn's pack. Meals are prepared taking all dietary needs into account, attentive veterinary care is provided and each resident's health is closely monitored. The pack enjoys multiple daily walks in a beautiful setting and lives alongside cats, chickens, ducks and goats. Love and dedication to the residents makes WPSGSS a mission and all aspects are well done ❤

Woody's place is so much better than a shelter or rescue, as give dogs a wonderful place to retire. They are fed high quality kibble and home-cooked food, taken for regular vet visits, high quality treats and toys, daily walks and tons of love! Of course belly rubs are included also!

Woody's Place is a remarkable place for Senior Dogs I have been very fortunate to come in and volunteer for them. Dawn has being an inspiration every minute of my time.
The love and energy Dawn brings to these GSD's has no bound and it is certainly reflected in each of the shepherd's eyes!

The dogs at Woody’s place are so loved. The care and time that they give these dogs is endless.

We got a rescure dog a German shepard cross and woody's Place has been a brilliant support

I have known Dawn, founder of Woods Place SGSS for 10 years. I contribute to the sanctuary when possible. I am thrilled there is a place for these wonderful senior dogs to live out their lives in a loving environment. Dawn posts videos of the dogs and they are happy, lots of open space, other critters to woof at, walks, car rides an home prepped meals. It's where I would want my old boy to go if I could not care for him. I would love to live there also! I know she has pledged herself to them and does fundraisers to help support them. Please help Fund Them. Lorraine and Mags

In a world with so much animal neglect and abuse a sanctuary for senior dogs is something you will not find easily. Woodys Place provides a loving, comfortable and safe place for the senior dogs that original owners can't or won't take care of. The people who run Woodys Place and the volunteers are nothing short of being angels. It's a twenty four hours a day job that only special people with huge hearts can do. My only experience with Woodys Place is as a bystander since I live in MA and they are in PA. Too bad such a great organization can't be franchised and spread all over the world. I wish I was closer and could help them help the senior dogs. God bless them and what they do,

Woody’s Place is the most loving and caring sanctuary for German Shepherds. They give these beautiful souls a second chance at life. This sanctuary caught my attention by giving these dogs a home environment filled with love, care and happiness.
