✨ Our 2026 Grant Cycle Is Now Open ✨ At The Grey Muzzle Organization, we believe every senior dog deserves a second chance - and a proven pathway to thrive. So this year, we're changing our approach to increasing outcomes for senior dogs.
This year's grant cycle is intentionally designed to go beyond funding individual programs in isolation. We are investing in organizations that can:
• Implement or expand evidence-informed programs
• Demonstrate measurable outcomes for senior dogs
• Collect credible, actionable data
• Help identify replicable models that can be scaled nationwide
Rather than simply counting how many dogs are served, we're focused on understanding what truly works - and building a national evidence base that strengthens the entire animal welfare field.
Our goal? To fund programs that improve outcomes locally and also generate insights that can be shared, refined, and replicated to help more senior dogs everywhere.
If your organization is ready to:
✔️ Improve adoption readiness
✔️ Increase successful senior dog placements
✔️ Reduce length of stay OR
✔️ Prevent surrenders
…while contributing meaningful data to inform best practices - we encourage you to explore our two available grant opportunities.
