Arrival Story:
My husband and I had talked idly about getting a dog for a few years, but thanks to Pedigree's adoption campaign we decided to take it seriously this year. It was important to us to rescue an older dog - any breed, male and neutered, who was a right temperament fit. Based on the shelter/rescue group-standard list of dog personalities, we wanted a dog somewhere between a "teacher's pet" (me) and a "goofball" (my husband). I'd also read that black dogs/cats were often left unadopted, but we didn't limit ourselves to black dogs. ANYWAY: After my last meeting one afternoon, I went by the SPCA to 'just look' a little closer at two dogs that I had seen previously....and well, one of them looked back.

We adopted Cole after he spent a few weeks in the shelter system, though it's evident from his behavior (and 'altered state') that he was a house pet at some point in his life. He's about 8 years old, a black labrador retriever mix, quietly friendly, perky for his age, and gentle with both adults and small children - a "constant companion" type. The rest we're still taking notes on.
