d play on. While in my foster home I have worked with a trainer and learned my manners; my foster parents tell me all the time what a good boy I am when I sit, lay down, come, and stay just like they showed me. In addition to basic obedience I have been learning some cool games on how to search and find things - because I am really smart and need things to do. I think I would be awesome at agility or any activity or job you have for me. As long as you pat me on the head and tell me I’m doing a good job, I will do anything you ask me to do. I live to please my people. I love play outside and I walk nicely on a leash - but I love to run! I won’t go too far because I love my people and don’t want to be too far away from them! I am beeper collar trained to come right to my people, or to the front door to the house. No matter where I am, or what I’m doing, I always come when I hear my beep. My dream home would be somewhere I could run and play in a nice big yard or where my people would take me for a lot of walks. I wouldn’t dream of going potty in the house. I let my foster family know when I need to go outside by sitting quietly by the door wagging my tail. I go in to my crate on command every night without a fuss since I love to snuggle with my blankie and toys. I love other dogs, and I have learned really good dog manners. I have learned that even though I think other dogs are awesome, every dog does not like to play. I give my oldest foster brother a wide berth because he is 12 and he doesn’t like to play with me. I think I would do great in a house with other dogs, but I do also like to be the center of attention, I mean, who doesn’t? I love to curl up in my 8 year old boy’s lap to cuddle. At night, I tuck him in and sneak into his bed with him until it’s time to go into my crate. I’ve never met a stranger I didn’t like and I love... love… love kids. They are the best. If you are looking for a sweet, smart, energetic dog to complete your family- I’m your guy. This dog has been examined by a licensed veterinarian, tested for Heartworm Disease, dewormed, inoculated against diseases, neutered, and microchipped.

  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.
