gger than their lease allowed, and the family was being fined $100 per day, so they returned him to the shelter. They apparently never realized how important it is to do at least a little bit of leash-training, so now, Bullett thinks a leash is the worst thing in the world. He is so aggressively reactive to the leash that he was at risk of being euthanized at the shelter. But one of the animal control officers reached out to ask for help, and Bluebonnet agreed to give him safe harbor. At Windsong Ranch, Bullett is as sweet as can be. But getting him to the vet was a major challenge because of his leash aggression. We had to muzzle him for everyone's safety. But once he was back home, he turned back into a goofy pup. He will need training and patience to learn to tolerate the leash. In the meantime, we are testing him in the pasture with our livestock. It takes special effort to get him from the paddock where he is currently living with another dog, to the pasture, because we aren't using a leash, which would put him in the wrong frame of mind for being around livestock. But once he's in the pasture, he engages with the other dogs, walks the perimeter, and seems only mildly curious about the livestock. Working with Bullett will take time and patience. As long as he is at Windsong Ranch, we'll keep doing what we can to get him accustomed to the leash, and to see whether he has the right stuff to become an LGD. If you would like to make Bullett part of your family so that YOU can be the one who builds a bond with him as you train him, please complete the application at .bluebonnetrescue

  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.
