accidents in the house, but seems to be learning quickly about house training. She also seemed to be crate trained when we crated her the first couple of days she was here, but since then we haven’t used a crate and she’s done great. Sophie has some missing fur on her back from a previous flea problem, but that’s all taken care of now and her hair will grow back beautifully. She gets very attached to her people and will let out a screechy howl when you leave her side. Even though she does calm down and relax after a bit, I think apartment living would not be ideal for her. She’s also a little bit of a diva and thinks she can’t jump on or off the couch so you have to lift her. She is super sweet and affectionate and needy in the best kind of way. If you are looking for a best friend who will stare into your eyes and make sure you know how loved you are everyday then Sophie may be the perfect girl for you!

  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.
