Adopt a dog, gain a family member!

November is adopt-a-senior-pet month, so there's no time like the present to welcome an older dog or cat into your home.

If you are considering adding a new member to your family, the
Seattle Humane Society has five reasons for adopting a senior pet:

MELLOW PERSONALITY. Senior pets have fully-formed personalities, so you know what you are getting! Plus, senior pets have just the right level of playfulness for busy families.

ALREADY HOUSE-TRAINED. Senior pets have already learned many of life's lessons.

FIT IN TO YOUR FAMILY QUICKLY. Older pets seem to acclimate more quickly to new settings.

HAVE A LOT OF LOVE TO GIVE. Many of our adopters say that senior pets really seem to appreciate it when they are adopted and bond to their new family more readily than younger pets.

OLD DOGS CAN LEARN NEW TRICKS. With older pets, you don't have to waste time teaching them all the basics -- they already know them! Instead, have fun teaching them new tricks!

And older dogs would appreciate the comfort and affordable products of Pet Dreams.....Gets you thinking, HUH?
