After every attempt at finding her owner no one came forward to claim her. So it was decided that instead of taking her to the local high kill shelter where she would most likely get put down, we would keep her and make her an honorary pom. Two weeks after finding her, Charlotte had two puppies, Phil and Lil. They have since been adopted and now Charlotte is waiting for the perfect home! She is very sweet, cuddly, and affectionate. She loves to give everyone kisses and enjoys curling up under a blanket by her human. Charlotte enjoys playing with whatever toys she can get her paws on, squeaky toys, balls, rope toys, she doesn’t care as long as someone plays with her. She fetches well and loves to tug. She’s very use to sharing and being climbed all over because of the puppies so she has no food or toy aggression. Commands that Charlotte has been taught are sit, stay, come, drop and lay/place. She does very well running around the house while her foster parents are gone as long as she gets a walk before leaving her. She is housetrained and has been trained to use a gentle leader for walks as she is very strong and will pull on a regular leash. On walks she’ll go right up to strangers to try to get some love. She doesn’t like to meet other dogs on leash though. She has been an excellent companion with the poms in her house and did fine with the bigger dogs and cats she met at the animal hospital her foster mom work at. Her pom foster brother has taught her to alert bark, but she mostly only barks when he starts it though. Charlotte would make an excellent companion for anyone looking for a loyal, playful, sweet, goofy, affectionate, energetic dog.

  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.
