Lesson 36 Rescue Dogs Rock! Happy Anniversary Bert!

I spotted a lovely video on Facebook. It was of an old dog and it was highlighting the merits of offering an older dog a home. Some people worry about an older dog, feeling they may be expensive and they are nearing the end of their lives but if you do offer an adult dog a home they can make excellent companions. They often have experienced challenges in their younger days and are just looking for a peaceful life with lots of affection. they really seem to appreciate all that you do for them.

G and I have 3 rescue dogs between us and all three were adults when they came to live with us. Bert has been living with G for three years to the day!
Happy Anniversary Bert.
People who know Bert fall in love with him. He is so friendly that it is hard to believe that he once had to fend for himself on the streets of Romania. He must have had a way with people who came across him then so that they fed him and cared for him as he is so trusting and good with people now.

A big shout out goes to the rescue centres in UK and their wonderful staff and volunteers who put hours into caring for any animal they come into contact with. Two that really stand out have to be:
Wanderers Haven...

and Lord Whisky.

If you are thinking of getting a dog or another pet for that matter, please consider offering a rescue animal a home.
