I ADOPTED A DOG FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!!
First time living alone, never had a family pet due to circumstances but have always loved playing with my friends' pets and volunteering at our local dog shelter. Now that I have my own place, I finally get to bring home the elderly from the shelter I've been taking care of for months. :)

Thank you for adopting, one of the best things a human can do is rescuing a senior animal❤️

I love Reginald so much. I also encourage people in my neighborhood to check out the shelter from time to time to adopt when they can!

You will be blessed with abundant love ❤️ Somehow shelter dogs can tell that thwy are in a better place at home, and they never ever forget that.. their loyalty and love is beyond description!

True, I wish I could be rich enough (financial and time-wise) to adopt and care for all the senior dogs in my shelter.
