Pet Groomer Gives Senior Dogs Makeovers So They’ll Get Adopted

When most people head to an animal shelter looking for a new pet, they’re usually only interested in puppies, kittens, and other young animals.
Sadly, older animals — like this adorable 14-year-old cocker spaniel named Honeybelle — are often ignored because they’re not as “cute” or because people assume there is something “wrong” with them.
For professional dog groomer Mark Imhof, this is unacceptable. Using his special set of skills, Mark is determined to help senior shelter dogs find their forever homes, one haircut at a time.
After noticing that many shelter animals have dirty, unkempt coats, Mark realized that he could show the world how sweet and loving senior dogs can be just by helping to improve their appearances.
By donating his time and effort, Mark has already changed the lives of dozens of dogs, many of whom have found loving families thanks to his acts of kindness!
Scroll through the images below to see the amazing transformation Mark has helped to bring about for these adorable dogs.
