Adopting a senior pet may prove to be just as rewarding as adopting his younger counterpart. An older dog from an animal shelter or rescue group gives you the advantage of knowing his medical history, personality, his preferences, general health condition, etc. You can already see his full-grown size so you know what to expect in terms of grooming or feeding requirements.
Here are more reasons to consider adopting a full-grown dog:
Calmer and more relaxed pet – At this stage, your dog will have gone past his stage of exploring, teething, etc. You can have a sense of your older dog’s temperament because their ways are already set at this time, so you know right away if his personality fits your or your family’s.
Less supervision needed – Your senior dog will just relish your company and will be happy to stay or nap at your feet, content and not craving constant attention.
Your senior pet will benefit from regular health and wellness checks at your animal hospital Norwalk, CA.
