One year ago,we adopted Jacob from @DT_Kenilworth. I can’t put in words how happy we’re having him around. #rescuedog

I can say few words in favour of adopting an old/older dog though!

I‘ve had many dogs before, but this was the 1st time adopting an **old/older** dog (we have no idea how old Jacob is!).

Usually I got them as puppies. All more or less rescues, but puppies. I was a bit worried and a bit sad of missing the “puppy experience”. 2/n #AdoptDontShop

There was nothing to worry about though! @DogsTrust made sure the dog was a good match for us, and Jacob is the sweetest dog ever! Anyone who meets Jacob can tell you that. He hugs everybody, loves cuddles, changes tricks for treats, and loves his ball (more than anything!) 3/n

Unpopular opinion: the puppy experience is overrated. Taking care of a puppy is a full time job! Training, entertainment, all the things they destroy, they are super active, learning to know their personality, it’s a lot of work! 4/n

Don’t get me wrong, I still love puppies! I’m just so happy I didn’t have to go through all that!

I have met new puppy owners (usually with young kids) struggling with training while making time for their normal lives! 5/n

If you have young children, really think twice if you want to add another toddler to your gang!

If your children have promised to take care of the dog, don’t rely on this! (I was one of those kids, and my dad had to come home every day from work and sort out the dog) 6/n

Advantages of an older dog:

- usually comes housetrained already;
- usually you know their personality and can see if they fit your family;
- know how big they will grow. No surprises!
- they sleep a lot! No really demanding time during the day if you exercise them enough. 7/n

- if they are quite old, demand less exercise. Jacob is not that old yet, but after a long walk, he is happy sleeping for hours! After a good hike, he is tired for days!
- Are less into destroying shoes/socks/etc.
- They know how to make puppy eyes (and how to use them!)

- Likely, they will not be with you for that long. It is always difficult to deal with the death of a dear pet. But remember, you have given the opportunity to have a home and love to a dog that otherwise would have been in a kennel

- However, this also means that you make a shorter life commitment. When you get a puppy, you know that you will have it for 12-15 years. This time is shortened with an older dog.

A dog is not for everybody, and I am not trying to convince people to get one. But if you want to get a dog and have make sure you can take care of one, adopt one.

Don’t focus on how the dog looks or the age. Old dogs make the best companions to snooze on the sofa! 12/n
