Look into her big, brown eyes! Are you getting sleepy? That's fine, because Trixie is happy to nap right alongside you!
At 11 years old, Trixie could be defined as a senior, but don't tell her that! Sure, she's a fan of a good nap (who isn't?) and she loves a nice leisurely stroll (all the more time for sniffing!), but this active young lady thinks she's as boisterous as the next pup. Just wait 'til you see her play with her toys; she's invented a game called "Self Fetch" that you have to see to believe, and it's adorable!
November is National Adopt a Senior Pet Month, and to help Trixie and her senior pals find their homes, their adoption fees have been waived all month long. You can see all the AWLA's senior pets (8 years and older) HERE; schedule time to meet any of them by emailing Adopt@AlexandriaAnimals.org or calling 73.746.4774 (opt. 2).
After all, age is nothing but a number, and, well, animals can't do math. Find a friend with years of best friend experience and adopt a senior pet this month!
