Each week as I prepare the Adopt Me page for this website, I notice that the same dogs and cats languish at Brother Wolf’s shelter. It is such a shame.
I had the good fortune to meet Ford and Louie on Saturday. They are wonderful dogs. Ford was so chill even though a dog was barking aggressively nearby. Yes, he is a large hound, not a fuzzy, little puppy. That should not be a deterrent though.
Keep in mind that the fuzzy puppy needs house training. He or she will chew up furniture, your favorite shoes, et cetera. An older shelter dog may already have house training mastered. The chewing stage may be over. I do not mean to disparage puppies. Just keep these things in mind. Puppies come with a lot of work.
So, let’s be open-minded when we consider adding a new friend to our family. Sometimes that older gentleman in the corner might just be the perfect friend for you!
