Adopting an animal is already one of the great blessings we can have in life. And choosing and being able to adopt a senior dog is, in addition to a gesture of generosity and compassion, saving a dog from ending its days in a shelter.

Here are some of the numerous benefits of adopting a senior dog:

• They are generally much calmer, because they have less energy
• Most of the time, they already know basic commands
• They already have their personality formed
• They adapt more easily to rules and schedules
• They no longer grow, so their size will remain the same
• Their capacity to love and be grateful is endless

Remember that, no matter how little time a senior dog spends with us, the moments with them can be equally unforgettable. The gratitude they have for those who welcome them and the love they show are infinite.
