They can say that the puppy was needing to be re-homed, therefore it's like adopting from a rescue group. But I didn't campaign for a presidential greyhound for exactly the same reason Obama's decision was disappointing: it glorifies pure breed dogs.

It turns out that people are not the only ones, who can adopt children – animals are good at this as well. One of the recent developments, which caught an eye of many pet-lovers, is an adoption of three newly born tigers by German shepherd in Chinese Reserve on January 2012.

At an NYC puppy shelter a few weeks ago, my mind was just about made up when I met Chester – The cutest Lab puppy I’d ever seen. After talking to the owner of the shelter however, I learned there was more to adopting little Chester, or any pet for that matter, than my love at first bark. Don’t let the dog eat your homework.

So when we adopted a human baby we knew we'd have to teach that human to avoid Violet. We weren't planning to adopt another. When we adopted them we made a commitment to care for them for the rest of their lives. This time of year, I worry about animals who are bought or adopted as gifts. And she does.

There is a bit of a drama around the adoption of the Portuguese (yay!) Water Dog puppy Bo. But he wasn't really adopted from a breeder either. We would have loved it if the Obamas had adopted a dog from a shelter. I think we animal people should just chill and enjoy the new puppy. Yadda, yadda, yadda.

There are many reasons to love an older animal, and here is a great post by Peggy Frezon for Guideposts that highlights 5 of those reasons. For kittens and puppies, most any time is play time. Older pets still need love and attention, but they don’t require babysitting like a frisky puppy or curious kitten. Laid-back lifestyle.

After all, dogs have the longest history of co-habitation with humans of any animal. Perception is a tough nut to crack, but in adopting a street dog, you automatically create an ambassador. One pet street dog can change the hearts and minds of dozens or hundreds of other potential adopters by showing who street dogs really are.

And I received confirmation of something I've known since 2004, when we adopted retired racing greyhound, Violet Rays: That there's sort of a critical period for dog-behavior acquisition, and if it's missed, the dog isn't likely to mature into the type of loving being whose behavior we've come to associate with "pet" dogs. And he details why.
