Using a network of foster homes, the nonprofit provides dogs older than 8 years old a caring, safe environment as well as covering the vet bills for the dogs.
"It can be very expensive to take care of an old dog — not always, but a lot of the time — so the idea is that we pay for all the vet visits to make this financially possible for people who are willing to do this," Judith told "Today." "Our vet bills average about $80,000 a month. Fortunately, we're able to afford that — our donors are just fantastic."
The organization has about 300 dogs and 200 foster families, according to the group.
