Life With Old Dogs Podcast
Hi, I’m Dawn.
I’m the creator of Life With Old Dogs and the founder of Woody’s Place Senior German Shepherd Sanctuary.
For years, my life has revolved around caring for aging dogs — especially senior German Shepherds who needed safety, stability, compassion, and a place to simply grow old in peace.
What started as a deep love for older dogs eventually became something much bigger.
Life With Old Dogs was created as a space to share the real-life experiences, lessons, heartbreaks, humor, and meaningful moments that come with loving and caring for senior dogs.
Because life with old dogs isn’t always polished or perfect.
It’s muddy paws, medications, mobility issues, reusable diapers, special diets, grief, laughter, exhaustion, loyalty, and unconditional love — often all at the same time.
I’m also a Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist, and nutrition plays a major role in my care philosophy for senior dogs. I believe food can be a powerful tool in supporting comfort, mobility, digestion, energy, and overall quality of life as dogs age.
A large part of my daily life involves preparing home-cooked meals, toppers, and supportive nutrition for the dogs in my care, using simple, practical approaches people can realistically incorporate into their everyday lives.
Through blogs, podcasts, videos, courses, and storytelling, I share what I’ve learned from living alongside aging dogs and navigating the emotional and physical realities of senior dog care.
My goal is simple:
to help people give their older dogs the happiest, healthiest, safest, and most comfortable life possible.
I believe senior dogs still deserve adventure.
They still deserve joy.
They still deserve dignity.
And they still deserve to be deeply loved.
When I’m not creating content for Life With Old Dogs, I’m caring for the residents of Woody’s Place, working behind the scenes on sanctuary life, and continuing to build a peaceful life surrounded by animals and nature here in Pennsylvania.
Thank you for being here and for loving old dogs, too.
— Dawn

On this week's episode of #LifeWithOldDogs podcast, Andrea Romeo, the founder of I'll Hold You Till Forever, an animal rescue located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, shares her unwavering dedication to providing a safe haven for homeless dogs in need. In a landscape where many rescues struggle to survive, Andrea's passion and commitment bring new life into the mission of saving our furry companions. With a 501 c3 nonprofit status now in place, they strive to be a beacon of hope amidst the challenges faced by stray and abandoned dogs.
Yes, you will hear two animal rescue friends and colleagues chatting on this podcast, but Andrea also shared her vision and commitment to providing every stray pup and any other homeless animal with a second chance at a great life.
The focus isn't just on rescue; it's about building a community that values and supports these vulnerable animals. In an era where resources are scarce, and volunteer efforts wane, I'll Hold You Till Forever reminds us that compassion knows no bounds when it comes to protecting our furry companions.
