r... her owner had her for 13 years... left her there. Not a lot of hope on the horizon... until Kristie saw her and the injustice of the situation. And now, Bonnie is here. Right out of her transport, she loaded up in the LIFTED van, she can jump! And off we went to the property for a swim and a hike. She loves riding in the car btw. Bonnie did great. Off leash from the get go. She likes to swim! Not to mention the fact she met 6 other dogs the hard way! Get in the van. Zero issues with other dogs, and I would be willing to bet the farm, Bonnie is fine with all other animals. She had a fun time today and she barked when the others barked with excitement, during stick throwing time. Bonnie's first night, she used the dog door and slept on a large Kuranda bed she just knew was for her. She likes the cow hooves to gnaw on. She was quiet as a mouse and slept great after her first hike! And so happy to see me this morning. She is just the sweetest, extremely loyal already, smart, and loves to have her photo taken! Bonnie was said to have some hip or arthritic issues, by shelter staff, but hey, she's got some miles on her. She displays no pain and gets around great. She runs, jumps, and even bows into a stretch. She keeps up with the youngsters, gets in and out of the van on cue. And although I allowed a slower pace for her today, she certainly didn't need it. Hiked up and down hills and roads. She gets up and lies down like any other dog here. Bonnie has quality time left on this planet. Lets see she gets it. Of course she is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and micro-chipped. Looking for a turn key, mature shotgun rider, who can offer you some awesome companionship?

  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.
