ggle to get her regulated with her insulin since she came to us so ill. Now, Dot is enjoying her days and getting used to a regular routine at her CT foster home. Dot will need a special home that is willing to give her insulin injections twice daily on a very regular schedule. These injections are easy to give as the insulin just needs to go under the skin and she has a lot of extra skin! She is also very good when she is getting her shots. She will need to stay on special food for the rest of her life as well. It’s called Glycobalance from Royal Canin and she eats 5 cups and one can of wet food every day. Finally, because her diabetes was so out of control, Dot developed cataracts and glaucoma in her eyes. Unfortunately this is irreversible, her eyesight is deteriorating and she will eventually be blind. Dot is now able to run and play and enjoys the company of other dogs after a slow and careful integration. We believe she should go to a house with no cats, and because she will be blind, only older children who will know to give her fair warning when they approach. All of this sounds like a lot, but if you are the special home that can take on these responsibilities, Dot is soooo worth it and will reward you by demanding belly rubs and slurping on your face 24/7! All of our animals are examined by a veterinarian, given age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, spayed or neutered, heartworm tested and treated if necessary. Vet references are required and prior to adoption a home inspection will be conducted. Transport options available. Adoption fee applies. If interested go to www.pmarinc.org for an application.

  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.
