My Old Dog introduces readers to endearing elders like Marnie, the irresistible shih tzu who has posed for selfies with Tina Fey, James Franco, and Betty White; Remy, a soulful 9-year-old dog adopted by elderly nuns; George Clooney's cocker spaniel, Einstein; and Bretagne, the last known surviving dog from Ground Zero. They may be slower moving and a tab less exuberant than puppies, but these pooches prove that adopting a senior brings immeasurable joy, earnest devotion, and unconditional love. Of special interest are the book's stories about retired working dogs--such as military dogs, law enforcement dogs, and racing dogs--who can find themselves languishing in kennels or left in overcrowded shelters after they age out of their vocations. The book also includes a comprehensive resource guide to help readers take action and help senior pets in all sorts of ways.
