Adopting a senior dog in St. Louis Park — FAQ

What counts as a senior dog?

Most shelters and vets consider a dog "senior" around age 7, though large breeds often age sooner and small breeds a little later. Every dog listed here is 7 years or older.

Open any dog's profile to see the shelter or rescue caring for them near St. Louis Park, Minnesota, then use the adoption link or contact details to apply directly with that organization. Lily's Second Chance simply gathers local senior dogs in one place so they're easier to find.

Are there always senior dogs available in St. Louis Park?

How much does it cost to adopt a senior dog near St. Louis Park?
