But only when they belong to other people. When the time is right and we decide to add a dog to the family, it will be an adult dog. I love puppies. But only when they belong to other people.

Tyke had been turned into the same Florida for the second time. I had been looking to adopt another senior dog, and I just knew I had to have him. He is the sweetest little dog and very active for his age. Who knows how much time we will have together, but I am happy for every day with him. I am a big fan of adopting older dogs.
