According to ASPCA, senior dogs are adopted at a dismal 25% rate, while their younger friends find forever homes 60% of the time. Consider adopting an older dog who has lots of life experiences and is ready to play praxis with you. She'll even let you choose the educational philosophy!
All of these adorable senior doggies (with the exception of my own senior buddy: Cokie, age 10) are from animal shelters and are waiting to go home with you! For a plethora of potential best friends, check out susiesseniordogs.org.
