or him. He does require confidence building as well as obedience and leash training. He does pull on the leash and he does jump up on people alot when he is excited. For this reason, he must go to a home with an experienced owner. He should not go to a home with small children because he will jump up and knock them over. He has been reactive (barking and lunging through the fence) to some dogs at the shelter. We hope that now he is neutered, he will calm down a bit around other dogs. This could take a couple of months. He would not do well in a dog park because of his reactivity to other dogs. He can be very vocal as well. For this reason, as well as his reactivity to some dogs, we strongly recommend that he does not go to a home in an apartment or condo. Once Storm knows and trusts you, he is extremely gentle and affectionate. He will literally sit in your lap to get close to you! He would do well in a home with a big backyard where he can run around and play with his new owners. He could go to a home with another dog, but we must make sure that they get along well. Another dog might help with his confidence building. If you have the time and patience for this beautiful boy, I know that he will be a loving and loyal addition to your household!

  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.
