March 13, 2016

There are thousands of rescue animals waiting in shelters, hoping every day to be welcomed into their forever homes, and to get a second chance at life.

Steve Greig has adopted more than 10 dogs and several farm animals -- all of whom are seniors!

Currently, his home in Denver, Colorado, houses 10 dogs, a pig named "Bikini" who thinks she's a dog, two chickens, two ducks, two pigeons, a couple of cats (who live in the garage and are on mouse duty), a rabbit and a pond full of koi.

"I grew up with a lot of pets," Greig told The Dodo. "Both my parents were animal lovers and they pretty much always let me have whatever I wanted as long as I could take care of it."

Greig has made it his mission to adopt the "least adoptable" animal at the shelter.

"A normal day for me is getting up at 5 in the morning and making breakfast for all of them, which, you know, there's 10 [dogs] and most of of them have different diets," he said.

Greig's weekends are filled with grooming appointments or trips to the vet, all depending on which pet needs what.
