I found it ironic that you published “Boot Camp for Pups” in the same issue as a profile about senior dog rescue advocate Steve Greig, “The Dogs That No One Wants ... but Him.” I volunteer for a German Shepherd rescue group and often receive surrender requests from people whose elderly parent died. I wish more seniors would follow the lead of Steve Greig and adopt older dogs who are less likely to outlive their owner, and are mellower, slower and just as adorable as any puppy.
