When you're getting a new dog, do you prefer a puppy or an adult?
I always thought I was a puppy person. Just cute little babies, and you get to see them grow.
But after having Zeus and Voodoo, I think I'm starting to *slightly* prefer adults (or at least adolescents). It's mainly because I've noticed the relationship is a bit different. An adult dog doesn't see you as a surrogate parent...it's more of a partnership from the beginning. And I think I like that kind of relationship.
And of course, there are the usual added benefits. No 2 a.m. potty breaks, puppy teething, etc.
