This makes sense
...there is always the shelters too...there are lots of dogs that would just love to hang out with someone who just wants to love them...but there is always that worry about the age thing. This is an interesting question...hard to answer too...
and Cindy...I can see it would be difficult turning down someone because of their age ....but thanks to people like you - many many dogs do find the good life.....
