I am already spayed, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, not good with kids, not good with dogs, and not good with cats.

As Valentine’s Day approaches you could be thinking a couple of things. Maybe you’re contentedly daydreaming about perforated paper bunny cards, too-hot cinnamon hearts and the various secret admirers you are sure to have doting on you this year.

Or perhaps you are thinking, “Ugh.”

You’re not alone. Yahoo News reports that one in five people would prefer to spend Valentine’s Day with their pet over their partner.

So here are the top ten reasons why a dog makes a better date this Valentine’s Day:

1. Dogs don’t talk. I could elaborate, but I think we can all agree this is a good thing.
2. If you worry your dog will destroy your lovely home four seconds after you step out the door, you can put him in a crate. The authorities frown upon this when it comes to dates.
3. Dog slobber is cute. Date slobber is very not cute. Ever.
4. You don’t have to share your dessert with a dog (and probably shouldn’t). This is great because dessert is the best part about Valentine’s Day and all that stuff conveniently makes dogs sick. So you get your tempting torte all to yourself. Perfect!
5. For the not-so-romantic folks out there, a dog won’t look hopefully, then desperately, and finally disdainfully into your eyes when the evening doesn’t end in a helicopter ride to Paris and a romantic marriage proposal. Won’t happen. Prolonged eye contact totally freaks dogs out.
6. When a dog follows you around it’s cute. Am I right? Pretty much nothing is better than being adored by a dog. If a date follows you around … we call that little phenomenon stalking.
7. Dogs don’t care if you are “presentable” or not. You don’t have to buy expensive shoes to hang out with your dog. You don’t even have to shower. Just head out on a couple of hikes, toss a ball around, dole out a healthy belly rub and you’re golden! No makeup, no ironing, no Spanx required. Amen.
8. You will never have to dream up a way to gently/firmly/sneakily “get rid” of a dog. Because you’d never want to get rid of a dog! Dogs are fun, and funny, and goofy, and handily clean food right off the kitchen floor for you when you drop it. Dates seem to think that kind of thing is below them. Lame.
9. Pup snuggles are the best. Okay, snuggles from a human can be pretty darn good too, but when Fido nuzzles into the nape of your neck and huffs a grumbly sigh, you’ll stay in that exact same position for ages so you don’t disrupt the little mutt’s comfort.
10. Did I mention dogs don’t talk?

So off you go! Use the Petfinder search tool to the left of this post to find your best Valentine’s date yet! And enjoy your torte. All of it. http://www.petfinder.com/dogs/living-with-your-dog/dog-valentines-day-date/

So if you are considering adopting check out Brooklyn! And just think, she is red! Brooklyn is an adult Red Nose Pit Bull Terrier.  She is very eager to please and looks at you with very devoted eyes, just wondering, “What can I do for you next?”  Brooklyn is a very active girl that loves to run, sporting a big Pit Bull smile the whole time. We are not sure how she is around cats but does have a high prey drive for small animals.

Javier and Suzi,

This old guy would love a chance to find his human partner.  His favorite time of day is getting affection.  He is gentle and settled, and loves to go for walks.  He is currently housed with Suzi, his girlfriend, who are great companions for each other. Suzi is very shy without Javier and would thrive in a three dog home where she could make another friend. If you are considering bringing a new dog into your home, please consider this pair.

Sylvester is loving his new forever home.
