she is looking for? A staff member writes: Rylee is a 2 year old hound mix! She is very energetic, lively and affectionate. After being returned by her family, Rylee shows a lot of fear towards men. She will bark at them as a warning and then hide behind a person she trusts. Rylee is not an aggressive or a mean dog, she is just terrified that men will hurt her. One of our male staff members gained her trust just after a few days and she absolutely loves him! Once you gain her trust she is 100% loyal and will love you forever. Her perfect family is one that would be willing to work with her on gaining confidence and understand that she is just scared of being hurt. She will need to enroll in obedience classes to help her learn some manners and help her feel more secure and safe in her 'pack'. She is really a great dog and just needs someone with some patience and a kind heart. Contact us to schedule and meet and greet today! Her adoption fee is $145. 9/14/2016 Rylee NKA as Charlie was returned. Her family has to move out of state and cannot take her with them. Her family is devastated. Charlie is now 2 years old.

  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.
