scue support donation is not for the 'purchase' of a dog, but rather to cover the medical and other costs of all dogs in our care. Shelter support donations are NOT NEGOTIABLE for that reason. Please respect that and do not email us to ask. Without ongoing support and adoption fees, our rescue WILL CEASE TO EXIST!**No phone calls, EMAIL ONLY, AlphaMom33@aol.com to get an application, thank you for understanding.** **These dogs are in foster homes, not a shelter setting; therefore we only accept appointments for those reasonably sure they WILL adopt the dog for which they are applying.** Due to unforeseen circumstances, Meyer has returned to APUR. This was through no fault of his own and he's still the wonderful dog that left here about 3 yrs. ago. Meyer is around 10 years of age. He's current on his vaccinations, has a microchip and is, of course, neutered. Meyer is a polite houseguest who enjoys sleeping on the bed with his person/people, and playing outside when it's warm. He is housetrained but doesn't like the dog door. He'd like someone home all or part of the day. He is quiet except when waiting for his meals! A home as opposed to apartment would be best, and a fenced yard is mandatory for all hounds. Meyer has a slight limp on his front leg (which also looks a bit odd) that does not hurt him. He apparently broke a growth plate as a puppy, and his leg healed wrong. But it is healed and he shows no pain from the limp. Meyer is particular about how people handle him and we'd like no kids under the age of 14 in the home because of that. He has "nipped" in the past, but has mellowed over time. He still doesn't care for vets and vet techs, but experienced techs and vets should have no issues with him. Meyer is fine with other dogs and with cats, and in fact, ignores cats. Meyer has a mild heart murmur which doesn't appear to need treatment at this time. There is a $200 donation for Meyer, who has had his teeth cleaned and is all ready for a FURever home of his very own! **These dogs are in foster homes, not a shelter setting; therefore we only accept appointments for those reasonably sure they WILL adopt the dog for which they are applying.** The rescue support donation is not for the 'purchase' of a dog, but rather to cover the medical and other costs of all dogs in our care.

  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.
