People predicted that I couldn't work at the Humane Society without taking my work home with me. I lasted one entire day without adopting a pet.

Look at that face. Could you pass him by? Plenty of people did because they didn't want a senior dog with health problems that go with an aging dog.

We are still getting to know one another, but he is certainly making us into more active folks with his daily walks. He has a great deal of energy for a senior dog.

What places should you next visit? How about more animal shelters? Every dog needs a pal.

I agree. Our local shelter is working on a state of the art center.

Thanks. It is so obvious he is used to being around people. I know he has been in three shelters and the streets. It makes no sense to me that such a well behaved dog had to wait for a good home. It may have been the fact he chewed his tail raw.

Max is adorable! His expression clearly reads "I need a good home!" Happy to know that he's found one!!!

Our fur babies have a habit of doing that. (Training us) But where would we be without them?

If you visit any animal shelter I gaurentee you will end up with another dog or a cat.
Right now you don’t want to leave your cute fur baby, (all dogs and cats are our fur babies) so I think you should visit either the mountains for long hikes or to a beach where he can run or walk to his hearts content. Some hotels allow dogs.
I hope your Thanksgiving was a happy one.

I live in an rv fulltime, I had a pet sitting/dog walking business before I left 4.5 yrs ago, I have tried to volunteer at shelters whenever I can; I'm always happy when the babies get adopted; I have 2 girls now, one was a stray from western NY state, no-one ever claimed her; the other I too got from the shelter I volunteered at in Flagstaff AZ.

I'm so glad you found each other. It is heartbreaking to see these wonderful seniors lose their homes, the people they have come to know and everything familiar in their lives. Its no wonder he chewed with the stress he was under. I took in a big fellow who was 7. We were his 4th home through no fault of his. They were: his breeder, a lawyer & wife who decided they had no time for him as they wanted to travel, and lastly a young couple who were divorcing. He passed away in March. Even though I still have two little dogs and 2 cats, I miss him and am still grieving.

It always warms my heart to see a senior dog adopted. They've so often given so much to so many for years--then just been dumped. I adopted a Bassett hound when he got shuffled from house to apartment to house with cats that terrified him. After eight years with the family, they couldn't find some resolution to keep him. I had him till he died in my arms several years later.
