The St. Louis Senior Dog Project is an exemplary organization whose mission is to find homes for older animals who are often forgotten and left behind due to various circumstances. STLSDP, is foster-based program, endowed with compassionate volunteers, who provide medical, physical and emotional care before their rescues are placed into their forever homes, It is often the last hope for these older animals. I applaud their diligence in the adoption process as well, as it ensures the most successful placement for every animal..
Adopting several senior dogs through STLSDP has been extremely rewarding. Every dog we have adopted has brought immense joy and love into our family. These older animals desperately need a safe and loving home to finish out their remaining years. Please adopt an older pet, and thank you to STLSDP for providing these loving animals with the consistent and compassionate care they so richly deserve. Outstanding organization!
We found Stl. Senior dog project at a local pet store. It was adoption day and we fell in love with Daisy and Bear. They were a brother and sister whose human had passed. They were 11 years old at the time. They quickly became a part of our family. We were so lucky to be blessed by them. Bear was only with us a short time and Daisy was nearly 14 when she gained her wings. We then adopted Shep. His human was going into a nursing home. We were blessed to have him in our hearts for several years. He was 11 when he came to us and we recently lost him. We will never fully recover from his absence. We adopted Tippy a 1 1/2 years ago. She was a surrender. Shy, scared, and deeply loved. She is a healthy happy little princess. She was 8 when she came to us. We are truly blessed by her. She has taught us patience, tenderness and pure joy. We recently adopted another surrender. He is a little guy at the ripe old age of 9 months. He keeps our family, including Tippy, on our toes. His name is Tadpole and he is our baby. What a wonderful job Stl. Senior project does. We are so happy with our babies. Thank you for taking such great care of these little ones.
Love, The Pace Family

The volunteer I spoke with was very rude over email and would not allow anyone outside of 2 hours from St. Louis to meet any of the dogs. I feel sorry for all the missed opportunities these dogs have for a good home based on the attitudes of the volunteers.
I would give it zero stars if I could. I inquired about a dog for adoption, filled out all necessary paperwork, and then got an email from the foster mom saying the dog is not a good pick for me. I was very disappointed to hear this, especially when they didn't schedule a home visit, or a face to face meeting. They said that the issue was not having a fence to which I told them could be remedied easily enough. No call backs, very unprofessional. I had plenty of people to vouch for me as to the fact that I would be able to provide a nice clean home, stability, and proper care. Yet the answer was still no. Contacting the BBB.
Agador has changed his ears are coming up. His original name was Parker when I adopted him. He is very sweet.
I adopted a boston terrier puppy in June 2019. I call him Agador. He is a great little guy. He is devoted to me. I would have taken any dog they recommended. All their dogs seem great
We adopted our dog, Baxter, from the St. Louis Senior Dog Project in November 2009. We were really impressed with how much love and care they give to every dog they foster. They really do their research on the people wanting to adopt.
I am also very impressed with Ellen's blog and love reading about all of the stories of the STLSDP and their amazing rescues!
They are obviously a very trustworthy, caring organization. I have recommended them anywhere I can. Thank you!
I adopted my dog from St. Louis Senior Dog Project in October of 2009, and I couldn't be happier! The staff was excellent and friendly, I spoke with them ahead of time and then picked him up at an adoption event at Petco in Kirkwood. They're great about sending me updates about the Dog Project, even after I moved away, and my dog is the most fantastic investment I ever could have made!
