Our mission is to be a resource and advocate for senior dogs and senior people on California’s Central Coast. We focus on helping dogs and people from Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito counties.
Our private veterinary clinic currently supports our 100+ adoptable dogs. We are providing excellent veterinary care to ensure they are as healthy as possible before getting adopted. Every dog we rescue receives a comprehensive medical work up.
With the rising cost of living, we would also like to provide more services to low-income pet guardians. Qualifying guardians would benefit from low-cost/no-cost services at our clinic. Our clients are senior citizens on fixed incomes, unhoused individuals or families living below the poverty threshold. Expanding our ability to see these clients at our clinic would minimize their vet expenses.
We would also like to make adopting a senior dog more approachable by offering discounted care for the adopted dog’s life at our vet clinic. We hope that by easing the financial commitment of choosing to adopt an older dog, more people will consider adding one of our adoptable dogs to their family.
We continue to be amazed by the care, enthusiasm and love shown by the entire POMDR Team. We recently needed veterinary care for our dog, Jessie. The very prompt, professional and extraordinary attention that was given to us and our dog was phenomenal. Thank you so much for all that you do for us and this community.
