that scare you, as it certainly doesn't stop me!! I love to roam and discover with help from my human. I get around really great in my foster home now that I have learned my surroundings. I know where everything is! My food and water bowls, my very own pillow and ALL my toys. Heck, I even know where the back door is when I need to go outside. Being blind sometimes makes me a little hesitant, especially when meeting new doggy friends. My foster mom has been helping me learn how to properly introduce myself so that I feel safe and less threatened when approached by dogs I don’t know, so proper introductions are really important to me. I also tend to get a bit jumpy & growly when someone sneaks up on me. My foster mom always talks to me when she’s coming my way, that way I don’t get too startled! Right now, I share my foster home with three small dogs, and I don’t mind them at all. But I would probably do best in a home as an only dog or with older, less dominant dogs for now. I love people and really enjoy cuddling and getting lots of love and attention. I LOVE to go on walks & rides in the car. Oh, and by the way...did I mention that squeaky, rubbery type toys are my absolute favorite!!!! I’m not picky though, if it fits in my mouth, I will give it a try! I’m a good girl for baths and am doing much better at the groomers. I am housetrained, spayed, up to date on my vaccinations and heartworm negative. My foster mom says that I am just a sweet, little lady who has adapted with great strides. With my sweet disposition, and quick adaptability, I’ll be a good addition to the right home in no time!

  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.
