Good for you and the future member of your family. We adopted a 'rescue' dog two years ago. My husband and I are retired and felt we would be able to be around her most of the day.

What a joy she has brought to our lives. She's a West Highland Terrier and is now 10 yrs old. She was rescued from a puppy mill, so she spent the first 8 yrs of her life in a small cage, sitting in her own feces, little human contact, for breeding purposes. When the breeders feel the dog is too old to breed, they call rescue places or have the dogs put down.

She brings us joy every day, and we in turn, make her remaining years as happy as possible.

Dogs and cats are very theraputic, they take your mind off of your health issues and they are there to comfort you on bad days.

Can’t wait to see a photo if you send us one. Good luck. I would love one but one of my cats HATES dogs and would probably attack it!
