✨It's National Adopt a Senior Pet Month!✨

There is so much to love about a senior pet, whether they are proven to be a certified couch potato or still have a playful energy that defies age -- usually a winning combo of both💗

You typically know what to expect when adopting an older cat or dog. Consistent personality traits, calm demeanors, and ingrained manners and training can all be a part of the incredibly cute and delightful package, and then there is the incomparable gratitude that comes from saving them from shelter life and giving them a loving home to live out their final chapters.

Sweet Millie, Buster, Lolli, Judy and Flynn are all eagerly waiting to meet you at the Allegan Shelter, while Sam and Simon are a dynamic duo currently residing at The Wishbone House.

Please consider adopting a senior pet and see just how much joy they can bring to your life!🐾

💖 Meet Sweet Judy 💖

This beautiful sweetheart has been through a lot, but her spirit still shines bright. Her tail never stops wagging, and her soft eyes tell a story of resilience and hope. When she first came in as a stray, Judy had long nails and lots of skin tags, clear signs of a rough past, but thanks to our amazing vet team, she’s all cleaned up and feeling so much better. Now, she’s ready for a forever home to call her own.

Here’s what we’ve learned about this precious girl so far:
📆 7 years old and weighs in at 65 lbs
🤎 Beautiful brown eyes framed by perfect natural eyeliner
🚶‍♀️ Low energy and walks wonderfully on a leash
🍪 Gentle when taking treats and already knows how to sit
🚽 Probably potty trained — does her business as soon as she goes outside
🤗 Loves to snuggle and be close to her people

Judy is proof that even after a rough start, love and kindness can bring out the best in a soul. Come meet this beautiful girl and see how quickly she’ll steal your heart!💕🐶
