squo;m only a few months old, but learning lots of fun things like basic commands, and how to potty outside, especially if treats are involved. I’m okay in a crate, but prefer to be cuddling with my family or lounge in a comfy doggy bed when I get sleepy. I do okay with other dogs, and love to wrestle and play with my foster doggy-brother! I’m still learning to share, and I sometimes can’t help myself from “borrowing” food and treats from my foster brother and sister when they aren’t looking. I am very curious around cats, especially if they run, but I know to keep my distance. I can be a little apprehensive around strangers, but warm up fairly quickly, especially if they have treats. Did I mention I love treats? My foster family has older kids that I love to play with, but I’m not sure how I’d be with really young kids. I’m going to be a pretty energetic girl, and will eventually weigh around 40 lbs, so I should be in a home with a fenced yard and with an owner that can provide me with regular exercise. I’m still very young and will need lots of love and and even more patience, remember - nobody is perfect. My foster mommy says the right family would be lucky to have me join them because I’m such a good girl with lots of love for you!

  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.
