Kristy, I think it is a good question. From the standpoint of rescue we would look at it on a case by case situation. Some elderly are in very good health and we would adopt to them one of our senior dogs but absolutely not a young one. It would be very unfair to the dog and our first priority is always with the dog. My heart does break for seniors that would like something to keep them company but it would not be fair to the dog.
