Adopting a New Dog!

There's a New Dog at Our House and He's Fabulous

A lot has happened since I last posted here at SeniorDog.com!  We adopted a new dog, a 5-7 year old English Shepherd (a good guess from the look of him, but who knows?) named Plato!

Plato's Story

Plato was picked up as a stray about 2 1/2 years ago.  He was brought to PAWS in Montclair, NJ.  PAWS means Pound Animal Welfare Society and from my experience, they're a great organization.  Plato was adopted by a PAWS volunteer and went from being a stray who was totally indifferent to people, to being a well socialized, happy dog who did great in his new home.  And then his human Dad died this past October and Plato was brought back to PAWS to find him a new home.  Plato was depressed.  His fur had become badly matted during his Dad's illness that it had to be mostly shaved all off.  It's growing back now but is still really choppy and close to the skin on his sides.  He's gorgeous anyway and he's doing really well in his new home.  We're thrilled!
