S (as long as you do your part and take her out regularly) Crate trained: YES Personality: happy, active, exciteable, very vocal Energy level: medium with bursts of high Fenced yard required?: Definitely preferred … she likes to roam around in a safe area but would be a flight risk in an unfenced area. Does he/she jump fences? NO Leash walk: YES Obedience training: No Riding in vehicles: RIDES OK Spayed/neutered: YES Up-to-date on routine vaccinations: YES Microchipped: YES Social with other dogs: YES … she can be a bit loud if she is crated and other dogs are not. When introduced properly she seems to do well with most calm dogs who behave well. She does feed off the energy of pups around her. Social with cats: No cats ... she will chase them Good with children: Will probably be ok with older (10 and over), calm, respectful children. Her energy may be too much for younger, smaller children. Adoption donation: $175 Aurora is a cutie who is a bundle of wiggles. She listens well (if she wants to), she is lots of fun, and she can be very intense if she believes she needs to be ‘on duty.’ Did I mention how cute she is? The key to keeping this girl happy is letting her know YOU have everything under control and she just needs to chill. She is just adorable and has enough energy that she will really enjoy being part of a very active family who will include her in all the family fun! She is just laid back enough to chill with her family when things calm down each day. She will not be a good apartment/townhouse resident because she tends to be very vocal ... and she doesn't have a volume control or an inside voice! She has been a very loved member of a great family and she just wants to have a new family to call her own! If you think Aurora might be the perfect pup for you, please go to www.allamericanmuttrescue.org/forms and complete your adoption application online. We are an all-volunteer group, so please be patient and understand that it takes an average of 7-14 days to process the applications including reference checks, follow-up questions and home visits. You can expedite the process by providing accurate email addresses for all your references. Time to make phone calls is limited and we often have multiple applications in process. We make every effort to move through them as quickly as possible. When your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if Aurora picks you too. If it seems that the adoption will be a good match for all, there is an adoption fee, and an adoption contract to be signed. Please feel free to email weluvpups@hotmail.com if you have additional questions.

  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.
