There’s nothing more valuable for a lonely spaniel than a new puppy or 
kitten or even an older dog to play with. And there’s nothing better 
for putting new life in an old German Shepherd than a feline or canine 
playmate.  Think about it.  If you were dropped off on another planet 
tomorrow, with no one of your own kind to communicate with, you’d soon 
be desperate for human contact.  Your dog or cat may not even know what 
he’s missing, but if you provide him with the opportunity to make a new 
animal friend, he may discover that life has new interest and that each 
day is exciting.
	









THE ANIMAL GENERATION GAP
Older pets, like older people, have a tendency to become less active as 
the years pass, and even the spur of a terrific exercise regime many 
not solve the problem of getting them up and about.  A ball of energy 
like a new puppy or kitten could very well be the answer. It’s almost 
impossible for an old pet to say no when a young companion is 
determined to play.  And even if the elderly pet isn’t as wildly 
enthusiastic as you would like him to be, he’ll still get a boost from 
the fact he has to spend a good portion of the day ducking and dodging 
the newcomer.

A new pet in the household can be a lifesaver. He can literally retard 
the aging process of a geriatric pet and add life to the animal’s later 
years. When stimulated to run and jump and play ball by someone of his 
own kind, the most sedentary and lethargic pet will get up and carry on 
like an adolescent.
