Older dogs are
housetrained.

teaching a puppy house manners and mopping up after
accidents.

Older dogs are not teething puppies, and
won't chew
your shoes and furniture while growing up.

can focus well
because they've mellowed. Therefore, they learn quickly.

4.
Older dogs
have learned what "no" means.
If they hadn't learned it, they wouldn't have gotten to be
"older" dogs. |

5.
Older dogs
settle in easily,
because they've learned what it takes to get along with
others and become part of a pack. |
|
6.
Older dogs are
good at giving love,
once they get into their new, loving home. They are grateful
for the second chance they've been given. |

What You See Is What You Get:
Unlike puppies, older dogs have grown into their shape and
personality. Puppies can grow up to be quite different from
what they seemed at first. |
|
8.
Older dogs are
instant companions
-- ready for hiking, car trips, and other things you
like to do.
|
|
9.
Older dogs
leave you time for yourself,
because they don't make the kinds of demands on your
time and attention that puppies and young dogs do.
|
|
10.
Older dogs
let you get a good night's sleep
because they're accustomed to human schedules and don't
generally need nighttime feedings, comforting, or
bathroom breaks. |
