The true story of Steve Grieg and his 10 shelter dogs

Steve Greig may be an accountant, but it would be hard for him to calculate his affection for animals.

A lifelong animal lover, Steve can’t stop bring animals into his life. And his household has grown to quite an impressive collection of family members.  

Steve Greig shares his home in Denver, Colorado with 10 dogs…

As you probably know, a pet’s passing can be an extremely depressing situation. The death of a pet can hurt as much as the loss of a close relative or friend.

After Steve was forced to say goodbye to his beloved dog, he drove down to the nearest local animal shelter located in Denver, Colorado, to look for a new friend.

He asked the staff if they had any “unadoptable” dogs – and found ten. Steve did not hesitate for a second – he all ten dogs home.

As well as young and old…

As mentioned, Steve took them all in from his local shelter, where he purposely chooses the most unwanted dogs – usually seniors.

But as you can see from how clean he keeps his house, Steve is not crazy or a hoarder.

He’s just a bighearted guy with an exceptional love of animals who dedicates his life to their happiness.
