goes. He is (literally) best friends with our other foster, Tess. You will see her in many of his pictures. He has really good dog manners and communication. He is a big derpy old lab soul! (Picture old farm dog laying by the farmer that never leaves his side.) He constantly wants to please his people. He will be your shadow and best friend, perfect for a little boy or girl to grow up with. Force free training is a must with him as he's very sensitive. He works for treats, praise, and pets! When he gets excited he Rue Rues! (see video) He doesn't bark a whole lot. When he needs to go out and potty he touches the door knob with his nose. He likes to carry the "skin" of his toys around and show them off or hopes to play tug with them. Like any lab he just enjoys carrying things around in his mouth. He enjoys a good bone or one filled with peanut butter. He enjoys the mental stimulation of boredom busters as hes smart and curious and likes to figure things out. He likes going for walks and hikes and walks best on a harness. He is ok in the car now that he knows it means going to good places, especially when Tess goes too. He would do well in any home but would be happiest with a friend to play with. He is a little food aggressive with other dogs and sometimes possessive with new bones, unless it's Tess. He just warns them they are getting too close when he's eating and that is ok. He's probably missed some meals in the past. He likes to sleep curled up in our smaller dog's dog bed. He doesn't like being up on the couch or bed. He's a really good dog. How he ended up in the shelter so long is a mystery to me.

  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.
