[quote=Anonymous]So we have people we know in their 50s get a puppy. They are no considering rehoming it, probably will. These are active 50 year olds. They just forgot what it was like to have a puppy, the work involved, the lack of sleep, less ability to go out and do what they want, etc. This is what scares me when older folks who are active but have set habits want to get a puppy and haven't had one in a while. No one is saying that 50 year olds can't keep up. They must consider the temporarily puppy year and also the energy level of particular breeds. Some breeds are easier to co-exist with than others depending on lifestyles. Honestly, this is where a nice 1-3 year old rescue would have been perfect for the couple. [/quote]
