Adopting a dog is like- the best thing that you can ever do for yourself. Dogs are little living little rays of sunshine in our homes. They bring warmth, they bring joy. Life without them is dark and sad. To adopt a dog is not only good for them but for you too, no matter your age, no matter your circumstances. If you are someone who has had a dog for a long time and lost it, then you know that life looks entirely different without them in it. That's true for everyone, including this lovely senior woman.

After losing her dog, this grandma considered getting another one, but she was afraid that if she adopted a puppy, she might not live long enough to outlive it. So, she would not adopt a puppy. Because she's a good person, and she put the puppy's happiness before her own. But when this senior doggo came across her path, she knew… that it was meant to be.

Honestly, we love this woman on so many different levels. Even here, at this age, she's thinking of the animal's wellbeing first. 'Doesn't think she'll live for long enough to outlive it' is the mark an of a pawmazing pet owners, and we are so happy that she found her perfect pupper match.

This one picture is all that you need to know that these two are the happiest that they have been in a long time. The contentment emanating off this image is so strong we cannot help but feel a little happier ourselves too.
