In those special cases, muttville is committed to providing them with humane and loving end-of-life care.”

“Muttville is blessed with an energetic crew of over 230 active volunteers and foster families. Without the tireless energy of our mutt- loving volunteers, muttville would not be able to execute its mission to rescue hundreds of abandoned senior dogs every year. Muttville volunteers are involved in every aspect of senior dog care, including walking, feeding, grooming, and socializing, as well as transporting dogs to their veterinary appointments and adoption events and running cuddle club for seniors. Additional volunteers assist with administrative and fund-raising duties as well.”
