Hey shelters … how about reducing your several hundred dollar adoption fees for seniors ? Isn’t your ultimate goal to home these strays in a welcoming home ?
Ours does! They have a "Seniors for Seniors" program for both dogs & cats.
@@sarahgilbert8036 what a great idea !
Reduced fees for seniors should be the norm. I would LOVE a small dog but there's no way I can afford the fees requested by these so-called rescue centres. They don't make it easy to give these very deserving animals a new, loving start in life. SO frustrating!!
We tried to adopt but these rescue centres make it so difficult. Not only do they charge a fortune, the process is frustrating and discouraging.
Sadly if the adoption fee is too large for someone, then the care and maintenance costs will be too much also
When I was growing up I had a friend whose grandmother had a Great Dane as her pet. His name was Big Boy and he loved Gran so much. He'd play and run with us kids but he was always the gentleman when he was with Gran. He'd walk sedately with her and you could tell she was his favorite person. He was a wonderful good boy.
Many seniors not want to pay for the constant grooming needed by professionals for some of these breeds. Costs like that must be considered.
you are so right !
Getting a pet for a Senior age person is not like getting a new pillow. You have to think of the pet also, they get a attached it is hard for them if they be separated. Not all elderly can get up and down to let the dog out they start using the floor or carpet it sounds nice but there are things that have to be considered.
Absolutely, and these are the kinds most recommend?
For seniors, I would also recommend going to a local shelter or rescue group and adopting an adult or senior dog of their preferred breed. Not only do you get a dog that's out of the energetic puppy phase, but you know his/her established personality already and can match the right dog up with the right senior. Many adult or senior dogs, no matter the breed, will be happy with a walk or two a day and snuggling on the sofa. Seniors' living circumstances and health can change (sometimes dramatically) and getting a puppy is a long commitment (sometimes up to 16 yrs for a toy breed), so make sure to have arrangements made and someone that's willing to take care of the dog if the senior is unable to at some point. But giving a home to an established adult or senior dog can sometimes be a perfect match!
Number looks like a peekinese
I totally agree with you, senior dogs and cats get overlooked but have just as much love to give, being in my 60 's and suffer from arthritis a senior dog would be perfect
Senior mixed small dogs are good companions, just keep your mind open that mixed breed dogs are great too. That is all we had were mixed breeds and they were great. Just make sure that you give them love and they will love you back unconditionally.
Exactly right. I've had to remodel my kitchen twice because my puppy chewed the corners off the cabinets. :)
thank you for your comment. i believe that adult or senior dogs of any mixed breed can be loving and loyal to a senior citizen. they need us the most.
My God sent Chihuahua helped me through multiple traumas in my life which NO medical care could compare. 17 yrs, 14 days, 10 hrs., 25 minutes ... till her last breathe. Mammas angel 😇 and ❤. R.I.P.
❤❤❤
I am a young senior living in a 55+ seniors apartment complex. People mean well gifting dogs and cats to lonely seniors, but more times than not it doesn't work out. Barking, soiling the floor, scratching furniture, things that new animals may not have been taught not to do in a home will lead to stress for both the owner and pet. If you can't take them out at least twice a day (right after meals when they most need to relieve themselves by nature), and they have an "accident," know that your dog is not purposely being bad, don't punish them. A cat needs a clean litter box at all times, or they will find a clean place to pee elsewhere. Be kind. Learn I don't mean to be discouraging, I just want to propose that if you give an animal to a senior, please, please be willing to rehome the pet with you, if the pet turns out to be more than the senior can handle. I've seen so many broken hearts and not just that of the senior. Animals quickly devote their hearts to humans who give them affection, my heart has been mostly broken for the dogs and cats I've watched neighbors send back to shelters. Please be a welcoming and loving home if it is needed. Animals are not throw-aways. Thank you.
Thank you for this very important info for the seniors and ethical treatment of animals. Share this.
My wife has been the proud parent of seven miniature schnauzers, we have been married 24 years and I have been happy to be involved with four of these awesome dogs. Now 79 I feel qualified to nominate the miniature schnauzer as a number one dog for seniors (of any age). These dogs don't shed, they are low maintenance and just a fun companion to be around.
I'm 78 years old and had a shih Tzu he was like one of my children . I got him when he was 9 weeks old .and had him for 17 years . He gone now . R-I-P PUGZE MISS YOU.
Awwww. I'm so sorry. My chihuahua passed just a few weeks ago. It sucks. I'm still crying. I still have two other dogs to love but I feel like I'll never get over his death. 😭😭😭
Dogs that need grooming are a financial challenge on some of us seniors - though they are sooo very cute! 💖
I just lost my beloved Shih Tzu Maxwell. He was everything you described. He loved everyone. He blessed us with 10 beautiful years.
All Dogs go to Heaven because , they become a part of Our Family forever !!
My Westie lived 16 years very gentle dog funny and very smart.
Absolutely love King Charles ❤️
these guys have such a happy demeanor
The biggest problems associated with having a pet is the high costs of vet bills without the price of food to eat for them.
The Jack Russell is a marvelous watchdog and fantastic companion. Very very smart. Shedding is a problem.
High energy too! 🩷🤍🩷
Wait...huh? Where is the chihuahua? I'm a senior and I love my 2 chis. Best dog for me!
I know right.. I have one and a Jack Russel .. half of what she showing is expensive maintenance and breeds ..
got 2 and love them
When i was younger, i worked with elderly people in their home. I noticed many of them had a chihuahua who they adored. So when i got older i got one for Christmas. She is now 13 and so sweet.
I’ve had 3 Shih Tzu and they are such good dogs!
At 73 yrs. old, I guess I am not your typical "senior". I have a Choc. Lab. and a Boxer. A larger dog, trained properly when young, is no problem for the elderly. The key is training them properly. I have no worries about tripping over them or them being too rambunctious and they are more than capable of protecting me if needed. And that is a plus when living in the country.
Where is the Pug? Low energy but still love to play, champion at cuddles and pugs love people. I have several!
I'm 70 and my wife is 72. 18 months ago we got a 10 year old Galgo Español (Spanish Wind Hound). He's an extremely low-energy dog EXCEPT when outdoor in a safe area with a play camerade and they can chase each other. Being a Wind Hound, he's also a sprinter and an aging one at that. So his chases last max. 2 minutes. He's also a velcro-dog who, after his chase game, comes to daddy and will normally walk behind me. Our last dog was a retriever and he's nowhere as near the vacuum cleaner she was. His fvorite activity is sleeping. Inasmuch as he's come out of his shell, he -might- consent to a short play tug but at sometime, he'll have enough and there is no convincing him to play some more. BUT ... he's also a cuddle-bug and loves his body contact. We see him as the perfect dog for our own energy level. He's NOT however a dog to train, as our last ones were. He's quick to learn what he wants to learn, but basic "commands" (I hate that word) are met with a look of indifference. But that's ok, because a "sit" is normally used to get a dog to be rather immoble. He'll stand very satisfied next to me or behind me and will not run away if I approach him, so in his case, a "sit", which he never does on his own anyway, is not necessary.
I would have figured that medium size dogs would be best choices instead of toy or small mainly because they have a tendency to get underfoot and can cause falls. Both grandmothers had toy dogs and both tripped on the dogs and one broke her hip. I understand they like to have a lapdog and toys and smalls are light enough, but dogs slightly bigger can help the seniors to see the dog around them.

Cockapoos and cavapoo's are also adorable, love my Cockapoo.
Can I make a couple suggestions to tweak this video? I am not a senior (although my mom is), but it seems like most of the video shows these 'good for seniors' dogs hanging out/doing things with younger generations, and I am not always seeing why (except for size) they are good for seniors. For example, I'd never get my mom a corgi (even though I love them); as a herding dog they can be noisy and my mom would totally trip over one. For myself planning into the future, I would be looking mostly for companionship, low maintenance, cuddly dogs, some of these dogs apply but others don't . Also, I don't think a dog needs to be small to be a good dog for a senior, but I do think its temperament, excitement level, ease of care is more important.
Finally, there is something very awkward about the actual dialogue, words seem inaccurate at times and it can be jarring. Still, I appreciate the info and will keep searching on this topic!
I think this is more a advertisement for higher maintenance and expensive breeds because I have a Chihuahua and Jack Russel.. low maintenance and still great cuddle buddies ❤️
Yeah, a lot of folks think Corgi's are good dogs for seniors just cuz the Queen had them. But people don't think about the fact that she had an entire staff dedicated to the care of those dogs.
I enjoyed your video. I would have changed the name to Good Apartment Dogs. Not dogs for Seniors. I am a senior. I could not afford the cost of grooming on my fixed retirement income. A small dog, 5 to 10 pounds, preferably short haired cuddly is what I recommend, at least 4 to 5 years old or older. Puppies are like raising and caring for a baby. I have a chihuahua, Lucy, 4 years old. We walk to corner and back daily. She is cuddly, she is easy to care for she has learned to stay away from my feet. Sits with me when I knit and watch TV. She doesn’t eat a lot so it doesn’t cost to much to feed her. She sleeps in her own little bed with her little toy bear, covered up. She likes routine. I suggest a trip to an animal shelter, talk to them about what you are wanting. If a small dog is not available, leave you name and number, as for a call if they get what you are interested in to their facility. That is how I got my Lucy Louise. She is grateful not to be in the shelter. She lets me know it every day. When I got her she was thin 3 1/2 lbs, and not healthy. With love and good dog food, she is at her perfect weight of 6 lbs. she smiles and is a happy girl and. I am grateful to have a wonderful companion.
I owned a Shih Tzu, she was a wonderful dog! ❤️ I now own two Toy Australian Sheppards, also wonderful dogs!
Not sure about terriers like yorkies - they are very active and bark a lot. Poms and poodles too.
My yorkie just passed away after 15 years and she had a ton of energy. She required daily walks.
@@pattilynnwahlsimmons
Sooooo sorry my friend. Doggy deaths are always hard to get through. Grieving process is a bitch.
@@Lonsoleil Thank you. I'm absolutely devestated.
I bought one for my little boy after he lost his father. That dog was a terror.
My Mom got along well with a series of Norwegian Elkhounds.
I'm still working and my elkhound is an absolute goof, and the best heating pad you could hope to find.
I lost my short haired dachshund at 17 years old. To me they are the best because of low maintenance, if you can bathe and cut nails there are lower costs. They are super affectionate, easy care and will let you know if anyone is near your home. On the other hand I also had an Australian Cattle dog in y senior years on a farm. Great watch dog, easy care as long as they have room to run, very loyal and it is a myth that large dogs trip you, small dogs get under your feet more, you can see the large ones!!!!
Mini dachshunds are intelligent and loyal dogs. Great animals for seniors
I had a JapChin, simply lovely little guy, BUT turns out they have a hereditary heart defect and 9-10 is considered a good lifespan. But in terms of loving and intelligent, they are wonderful.
We always had "pound hounds". Awesome beasties.
I have had a Yorkie, Maltese, Pomeranian, Poodle and can attest to their lovable wonderful nature. However, I have also had a Papillon an incredibly intelligent and loving small dog who was not on the list.
I wish they would have addressed a mix breed that I love - the Yorkiepoo! The best of both breeds, they shed very little and their hair grows slowly. The terrier instincts coupled with the loyalty of the poodle make for an excellent breed for adults with or without children.
Please look into the Papillon breed. They make a great dog for seniors. I should know because I have owned 3 of them.
So happy that they mentioned the Japanese Chin!
I had two shih thus for 15 yrs. Great devoted and wonderful dogs. I now have a Shih poodle.. Easy to train, smart, loving, and cuddley. Great partner for me as I lost my husband a year ago. Top two breeds you discussed is my Dolly J!
I’m on my third shih tzu and he is a sweetheart I will always have one with me ❤
LOVE THIS
A program that connects a younger person with a senior is needed for companion animals.
The younger could check in monthly with the senior to see how things are going.
If the senior gets sick or goes to the hospital for surgery...the younger could foster care for the animal until the senior is able to have the pet with them again.
The program could provide funds for food and pet supplies and vet bills.
Lonely Seniors....Lonely Pets.
Win Win!
Great video
We have a Coton du Tulear from Madagascar. She doesn’t grow beyond 10-11lbs, big cuddler loves to walk and us so obedient. Excellent for seniors .
The dogs in this video are over the top cute!!!!
I had a Maltese Shiz Tzu dog I gave to my elderly parents when I had to move. These are perfect for older people as they tend to live close to their adopted family. Gutsy little alarm dogs they are protective of any strangers & will alert you of any different noises or visitors.
My Maltese/ Shih Tzu passed last year at the age of 16 1/2 . He had the heart of Pit Bull and was a great noise maker . I miss him every day .
@@markmed9091 Sorry to hear. My parents had 12 years with my little bloke. He loved & adored them & was the priority over the grandkids when they got older. They lost him very suddenly & this affected their health. He knew what my parents were going to do as he watched them like a hawk. I moved home for a spell & used to hear him banging on the back screen door at night so I used to let him sleep on my bed. 0430 comes very early to a shift worker LOL. From there he used to sleep inside alternating between my parents' bedrooms (dad was a huge snorer so slept in another room).
Their great dogs
As a well advanced (in years) senior person who has had dogs since I was old enough to know what a dog is, I think I am fairly well qualified to comment on this. As a youngster I had my own Border Collie who was with me from the age of 7 until I was 21, a wonderful dog. Through most of my adult life I have had numerous German shepherds and up until very recently Australian Shepherds, both wonderful breeds and excellent companions. When we had to say a final goodnight to our last Aussie at Christmas last year, we decided that as we were not getting any younger and less active, we should get one, or maybe two smaller dogs. We settled for American Cocker Spaniels and we now have two of them. They are very loving, intelligent, toilet train very quickly and so cute they get away with anything (it’s the eyes). They also don’t get upset if you can’t take them on a long walk on days when maybe our health prevents us from venturing further than the garden. Sounds perfect but there are a couple of real negatives on having small breeds. 1, they do get under the feet and can be a serious trip hazard if you’re not careful. 2, they often need to be picked up, maybe to go in the car or get into the tub for washing. Being small, they are a long way down and if you have an ageing arthritic body, this can be really painful. So, larger placid breeds should also be considered instead of the smaller dogs by anyone who isn’t quite as supple as they once were.
I agree with many of your points but getting a larger dog is impossible for many elderly people to lift if the dog needs emergency care, or is elderly. This happened to my sister and she was scrambling to find a neighbor that could put her 50lb dog into her car for it's last trip to the vet. That's something people don't think of when they are 50 and get a dog and the dog lives for 13 years.
The Havanese is also a good choice
When our 65 lb Australian cattle dog mix developed leg problems there were a few times when I had to carry her. That's why I think a small dog would be good for me now at age 70. I would want to be able to lift it if necessary. Being on Social Security, I need a dog that doesn't need a groomer, and who doesn't need expensive medicine, although you never know what medical problems will crop up..
I am surprised that Havenese dogs are not mentioned , they are perfect for seniors
You are absolutely right !
What about Havanese?
My 69 year old mother recently got a Havanese puppy after my father passed away to keep her company. I previously owned a Havanese myself that super easy going and smart so we thought Havanese would be an excellent breed for her. However, her 9 month old Havanese has more energy than I’ve ever seen in any puppy and my mom is really struggling to keep up with him. Her puppy is very smart and sweet, but wants to run and play ALL DAY LONG! I had assumed the Havanese temperament was more easy going and didn’t require a ton of exercise like the one I owned for 12 years, but now I’m not sure if he was an anomaly for the breed.
I als recommend the sweet adorable Cavachon!!
For the elderly who give in to being "old" I guess a small sedintary pet is fine but my wife and I are in our 80's and have a Rott and boxer Both are reasonably well trained and provide comfort protection and entertainment.
Good for you!
Right On Bro, I feel you man. Keep up the great work. You’re Fire my guy.
I still like the papillon breed. They’re smart and loving. I miss loulie
Shih Tzu #1 - yes, yes, yes! Best dog in the world!
I would love to have a dog.
A very awesome breed was left off of this list, that being Chihuahuas! I highly recommend Chihuahuas.
I have the perfect dog for me. I have a Border Collie. Very smart and quiet. I take her outside 3 or 4 times a day.
I would love a maltese cross miniature poodle
Don't agree with larger dogs being a fall hazard. I have Parkinsons and a Golden retriever . Being the height of my knee helps me see him unlike the ankle height breeds. It's all in the training.
Why is the cairn terrier not in the group, as it is related to the white highland terrier?
I had a cairn as a child and he was high energy, a busybody, and lovably stubborn. And he could walk for miles and never get tired. He was much higher energy than the 2 golden retrievers I have as an adult. A cairn would be a great choice for an active senior as they are small and sturdy and a lot of fun, but definitely not a lap dog or a dog that's content with lying around on a sofa. I'm not sure how different they are from a Westie. I was always under the impression that Westies are a more 'chill' than the Cairns, but I might be wrong. I think terriers in general are best for active seniors who like those long walks.
I have a border collie , Siberian Husky mix out on 16 acres . She is loose outside from 5 am till 9 pm .I walk to my pond 3 Tim's a day and the mailbox. She has 2 groups of neighbors dogs that visit for play.
That is excellent ! it sounds like you have a real paradise for you Dog.

In the end, it's rarely the breed that's the issue but the training and discipline they're given. There's no such thing as a "top ten", only what you're prepared to deal with, that includes the grooming (whether home or professional), the routines and training, the costs for owning and finally the care and medical they may need as they get older. I've seen "nightmare dogs" that are the sweetest and I've seen the "sweetest dogs" that are absolute nightmares.
The only pure breed dog that I have owned was a Japanese Chin. We lost him last spring. He was the sweetest of all the dogs we have had over many years. I am of an age that owning another dog isn’t possible. It would be another Chin if I could. He could have been a twin of the featured dog. Because of their long coat they appear to need a lot of grooming. Not so. We took him to a groomer every 5 to 6 weeks for a bath and coat trim. Coat does grow fast.
I think you need to also take in to account the dogs temperament. There are many bigger dogs that are mellow and low energy. I know a Malamute that is a serious couch potato. Pit bulls can also be low energy dogs that just want a soft place to sleep and maybe a short walk once a day.
Get a older shelter dog :) .. I have a lovely Chihuahua Izzy Gonzales is his name, he's all love and perfect for everybody
You forgot the Havanese. 😁
In western Europe you can find the Continental Toy Spaniel Phalene, the smallest of the spaniels was the dog of choice for the Nobility and Aristocrats for hundreds of year and the favorite of Louis XIV. He declared that every phalene born in France was his by birth and he chose who received them. His daughter took her dogs to Spain when she married the King of Spain and had them bred with Chihuahua's and thus came into being the Papillon. Phalene looks much like their cousin the Papillon but with long floppy ears. They are happiest next to their owner or on their lap. In family portraits from the Renaissance through to the Revolution of France the small dancing dogs of the Royals were Phalene's!!!
I'm a senior. It's a German Shepherd or a rescue for me. Don't want any crumb snatchers or ankle biters.
I like toy or small mini poodles that are just a little bit over the max height of toy. While he needs professional grooming, daily comb and daily teeth brushing, and some maintenance mid groom, my little one cooperates, being used to this as a pup. And, poodles are smart cookies. They do not need to be taught to retrieve a ball and return it to owner. They were wired as water retrievers. But mine just loves this, until he is tired. I am a new senior, age 62. This dog, age 3 now, could be my last, and hoping he keeps us company for at least 16 healthy years. Until i am 75, fate willing.
Where can I find aWestieto adopt?Lost my Westie.Am a senior live in India and have not found one Can you help me?
What about a half miniature Doberman pincher/and a small Chihuahua mix only weighs 4 pounds and she is eight years old
Boston Terrier should be on this list
Poodle or papillon for me! What no papillon? Shameful
I cast my vote for Chihuahuas. Very affectionate, THE lap dog, and no grooming.
Wow can’t believe the Dachshunds are number 1
The best breed for anyone is a rescue dog.
I have 2 Shih Tzu girls aged 10 and 4 I also have a jackapoo and they follow me around the house there so loving but have a very big mouth when someone calls around
How can I get one of these little dogs I have been trying so hard for 3years and I have had no luck I have a letter from my Doctor for puppy because l am a Senior and it would be a good companion. HAVE HAD NO LUCK PLEASE ADVISE ME AS TO WHERE TO GO NEXT.
What about the mini schnauzer???
All puppies are demanding but once they reach maaturity or at least 1 year old any breed is a good companion, personally I prefer very large dogs: Bernese mountain dogs, Irish wolfhounds or great Pyrenees mountain dogs. As for jumping on people representing a danger is not only for senior and such behavior has to be corrected at the puppy stage. As for risk of falling try one of the toy dogs flashing in your way and while you try not to walk on it, at least with a very large dog you can grab onto them and prevent the fall.
I’m a senior but i hate small yappy dogs.
How could you forget the adorable Cotton de Tulear? These 8-12 lb dogs have hair that feels like cotton, hence the name. They are very attached to their owners and suffer seraration anxiety if left too long. They are smart and love to please their owners. They are usually white with black eyes and nose and are cousins to the Bichon😮 Frisse and look like a stuffed animal. Other colors are black and white party and black white and brown party.
I tried to adopt a dog. It would have been easier to adopt a human baby. The shelter wanted to inspect the property, told us we needed a fenced yard (we rent), wanted our financials and Hubby said NUTZ! After some very serious ailments the city I live in said they'll give me a free service dog. When I get her I'll try my best to get a video up.
YOU DID NOT MENTION THE WIREHAIR TERRIER BREED. THEY ARE SMART, ATTENTIVE, LOVING WATCH DOGS !
Why are you yelling??
Which wirehair terrier? There are many.
I am a senior, but I need a midsize (50 pounds or less) dog for protection as well as companionship. In fact the protection is the most important aspect of having a dog. What non-puppy dog should I get?
Go to local shelter and get a dog that is young or a few years old. Many to choose from and you wont have the puppy antics.
@@lesliemoore1656 I, no longer have the physical ability to train or care for a young dog. Thank you though
what about ba american bulldog, with the pushed in face
My vet charges $85 for a simple 15 min office call. I suspect that a lot of pets are given up due to greedy vets
These dogs are not cheap. check local shelter and you may get lucky.
I'm nearly 80 and I can't understand why you recommend small dogs for seniors. I have had a Labrador, a Bouvier des Flandres and an Irish Wolfhound - all calm and quiet. Hate it when older friends visit with small, yappy undisciplined dogs.
I'm a senior. YNou eed to get a small dog under 25 pounds. You need to get a get na dog that is low maintence and doesn't require maintenance other than annual shots, food and water. Yorkies are not good with childrem. they can't take heat or cold, they are very difficult to groom and require extreme maintence.
A lot of the dogs recommended here require expensive professional grooming and that has become very expensive---not necessarily a good thing for seniors. All great dogs, but costly to maintain properly.
Some of the recommendations are dogs who have tiny bladders. I wouldn’t want that issue at my age, much less a senior citizen.
I would never have one of those none dogs tiny ones not like dogs, i want a Maltese
I disagree as I had 3 Bichons and there high maintenance on the grooming. Need daily or 3 times a week brushing to keep away the matting.
I’m looking for a small dog
What about a chihuahua ?
So the 80 lb. male German Shepherd I just got at the age of 77 was a mistake?
Dude German Shepherd Dogs are no mistake. My wife and I have 2 GSD Protection Dogs, I still jog around 2 miles 4 times per week. I’m 70 my wife is 35 and loving life. Go for it my guy, you’re rocking 80 Good luck to you.
I prefer a short haired dog due to the expense of grooming. I paid $45 every 6 weeks for my shitzu who recently passed away from liver disease.
The current theme of this list is "somewhat small and cute". Corgi's are insanely energetic, they're a herding breed and wanna move all day.
Corgis are a fit for an active person with a large backyard and living close to a dog park or a walking trail.
They're a herding breed that needs a minimum of 1h of daily exercise plus additional mental stimulation. They're easily bored and become destructive when that happens.
The only non-energetic corgis I see are overweight or obese, which shortens their life span and causes joint problems, which is animal abuse.
