Old Dog Town

Victorville, Nellie's Nest, Primo's Pack, Sergeant's Troop, Chesapeake Bay, Kiyana's Wolf Den: these are all neighborhoods of Old Dog Town, part of the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, Utah. From Amra the Malamute sheriff to Jethro the shaggy-dog mayor, the inhabitants of Old Dog town are as varied and fascinating as a cast of characters in a movie. There's Victor the Dogfather who has drawn an indelible line in the sand that no other dog challenges. And Ginger the Chesapeake Bay retriever who has a passion for counting tennis balls. These stories and more welcome you to Old Dog Town, where every day is a dog day filled with sunny skies and golden biscuits. President and one of the founders of Best Friends Animal Sanctuary and editor of "Best Friends" magazine, Michael Mountain directs the sanctuary's nationwide outreach and public awareness efforts. He also created and oversees the No More Homeless Pets Program and Best Friends Network. He lives with three dogs, five cats, and a variety of wildlife visitors at his home in Angel Canyon, Utah.
