We have recently implemented a new program called Seniors for Seniors, where we offer a special discount for Senior citizens who adopts a certain senior dog. Not all senior dogs are qualified for the discount. Please ask about Seniors for Seniors program at our adoption center.

• ​Senior dogs at shelters need homes just as badly as younger dogs. Many older dogs were once owned and loved by someone. For whatever reason, they were given up and abandoned in a shelter and are in need of a home. Just like puppies and younger adoptable dogs, they make loyal and loving companions.
• Adopting an older dog may save its life. Many people are quick to adopt puppies and younger dogs, often overlooking dogs over the age of five. Shelters are overcrowded and unfortunately, older dogs are among the first to be euthanized if they aren’t adopted in a timely manner.
• Older dogs usually come trained and understand at least basic commands.  Most older dogs are potty-trained and have mastered the basic commands such as “sit,” “stay,” “come,” and “down.”
• You can teach an old dog new tricks. Dogs can be trained at any age and older dogs are just as smart as younger ones. Older dogs have a greater attention span than a puppy, which make them easier to train.
• Older dogs are calmer and less energetic than younger dogs.
• Older dogs make instant companions. Unlike a puppy, which requires leash training, etc. an older dog is ready to accompany you on a long walk and already knows how to play fetch.
