Description

Posted Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed. Hello, my name is Moose. It is so nice to meet you. I would love to learn all about you. Do you want to know more about me? Okay, here you go. I am a 2 year old mutt that was found running the streets. Luckily, I was brought to the KC Pet Project. I am treat-motivated and already know how to sit and lay down. My behavior is easily corrected and I am crate trained &amp; house trained. My foster parents are really proud of me with how fast I am learning new behaviors and they say I will need a family that will continue my training. I have lots of energy, especially after being in my crate all day. I am barrier reactive in certain situations and I am working really hard to get better. I love playing with toys, especially those that have a squeaker. I get along with other dogs and participate in playgroups twice a week. No cats, please.<br/> <br/>I am neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and ready to go home! I come with 30 days of pet health insurance and a lifetime of unconditional love, at no additional charge! We always ask you bring the whole family for an introduction, 2, 3 or 4 legged, just to make sure that everyone can be great friends! Don&#39;t wait, call today. I am currently in a foster home and am looking forward to being the newest member of your family.

1. Do your research – find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
2. Decide what you can handle – before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you’re about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don’t have time for potty training and obedience classes you’ll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies – It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don’t be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet.
4. Start looking… Once you know what you’re looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
5. Meet in person. Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can’t get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
