4.
Older dogs
have learned what "no" means.
If they hadn't learned it, they wouldn't have gotten to be
"older" dogs.
5.
Older dogs
settle in easily,
because they've learned what it takes to get along with others
and become part of a pack.
6.
Older dogs are
good at giving love,
once they get into their new, loving home. They are grateful for
the second chance they've been given.
7.
What You See Is What You Get:
Unlike puppies, older dogs have grown into their shape and
personality. Puppies can grow up to be quite different from what
they seemed at first. |
8.
Older dogs are
instant companions
-- ready for hiking, car trips, and other things you like to
do.
9.
Older dogs
leave you time for yourself,
because they don't make the kinds of demands on your time
and attention that puppies and young dogs do.
10.
Older dogs
let you get a good night's sleep
because they're accustomed to human schedules and don't
generally need nighttime feedings, comforting, or bathroom
breaks.
