About Marty’s Place Senior Dog Sanctuary Inspired by a senior dog adoptee named Marty and the plight of other aging canines with nowhere to live out their “golden” years safely and comfort ably, Marty’s Place Senior Dog Sanctuary opened its doors in 2015. The 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization provides a per manent and protected environment for dogs aged seven and older when their owners or other animal rescue/shelters can no longer care for them. While adoption or lifelong foster may be an option for some residents, when it isn’t, Marty’s Place provides senior dogs a loving home for life in a cage-free, fam ily-like environment with full, personal ized attention given to their needs for the rest of their lives. Situated on 25 acres, the 8,000-square foot facility in Upper Freehold, N.J., also offers a canine swim and hydrotherapy program for its residents and non-resi dent dogs of all ages.
