Frosted Faces Foundation

Frosted Faces Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing and support for senior pets and the families who love them.

Founded in 2014 by Kelly and Andy Smíšek, the organization began with fostering senior dogs who were being overlooked in shelters. As the need for senior pet support quickly outpaced their personal capacity, they established Frosted Faces Foundation as a 501(c)(3) to engage a broader network of compassionate families and partners.

Since then, we’ve supported hundreds of families and evolved to meet the increasingly complex needs of senior pets in our community. Through innovative programs that rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome aging animals, alongside safety net services, veterinary care, and education, we’re building a future where every senior pet is seen, supported, and deeply loved.

At Frosted Faces Foundation, we recognize that senior pets face a perfect storm of challenges such as medical needs, housing insecurity, age discrimination, and a lack of long-term planning by their guardians. Our approach is not just to rescue, but to rethink how we as a community care for aging animals and their people.

We work closely with open-admission shelters to identify senior dogs and cats who are out of time and options to increase live outcomes. Rather than simply offering temporary shelter, we provide a second chance through a network of individualized care. Each animal we accept receives tailored veterinary treatment and behavioral support to ensure they are not only safe, but thriving. From there, our adoption program connects them with families who are ready to author their final chapters.
