right into their laps to get some affection. In fact he "sings" when he sees his favorite people coming and he is very keen on making them happy. Happy people mean cuddling and toys, and Wyatt loves all kinds - ropes, balls, squeakies, stuffies, you name it. While Wyatt&#;s perfectly capable of keeping himself entertained if he has a toy to roll around with, he much prefers if you play tug of war with him. But Wyatt would give it all up for some pets. This boy loves intense scritchy sessions more than anything. Wyatt&#;s a smart pup too, and he works diligently during his training sessions because he wants to be a good boy for his people. He&#;s already mastered sit, down and recall and he&#;s crate and house-trained! Wyatt is also thriving in APA!&#;s Total Obedience Program and recently became TOP Dog Ready, which means he has already learned all the skills in his training plan. The Total Obedience Program (TOP) is modeled after the AKC&#;s Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test. As a TOP Dog, Wyatt has a personalized training plan and works with a volunteer trainer several times a week to help him learn the skills to become the best dog he can be! Dogs in the program learn skills including sit and down, walking nicely on leash, sitting calmly when approached by strangers, calmly walking past another dog, staying in a sit or down until told "free," and coming when called. In addition, Wyatt has also learned "Place". Wyatt has worked hard to become a wonderful companion, and as a part of APA&#;s Total Obedience Program you can work with APA staff to continue to build a training relationship with Wyatt after adoption and master all the TOP dog skills together. Check out a video on APA&#;s CGC program, on which the TOP was based: vimeo/ Wyatt doesn&#;t ask for much - just a home a giant sofa and a bin full of toys and humans who he can cuddle with. Come meet this sweet pup!

  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.
