November 6, 2016 by Andy Roark DVM MS

To celebrate Adopt a Senior Pet Month, we asked the @DrAndyRoark Instagram followers to share why they believe in adopting senior pets. Here’s what they had to say:

1. “I love senior pets because they always get more adorable with their gray hairs. Like Richard Gere.” @redheadvettech

3. “Despite all their aches and pains, they are so happy to get up and go every single day!” – @taterpugz

4. “Because their love has gotten me through the most difficult times.” – @bric239

5. “(They) may become the best, most loving, most appreciative short term commitment of your life.” -@jedikittie
