This is so true. My husband and I adopted 3 seniors dogs a few years ago because they don’t get adopted often, and we wanted to make their last few years good. One was abandoned by her owners at 11 years old because she was “too old.”
You should have seen her shaking like a leaf in the shelter cage. She HATED it there. As soon as we took her home, she transformed. One of the most loving dogs I’ve ever owned.
Anyway, my point is, those grey muzzles were only with us for a few years, but I wouldn’t exchange that experience for anything else. Totally worth the heartbreak.
