Sonnenhof, an animal welfare facility operated by the German Animal Welfare Federation, provides refuge for senior dogs and puppies rescued from the illegal pet trade. The “Seniors for Seniors” program pairs elderly dogs with elderly humans, recognizing the unique companionship that can arise from this match. Sonnenhof also operates a puppy sanctuary, providing specialized care for young dogs rescued from illegal trafficking. Through these programs, Sonnenhof not only provides direct care for animals but also contributes to the development of best practices in dog welfare.
