the base of his tail, Libby a female and she is the smaller of the two. They came to us housebroken and well socialized with people , so at some point they had someone who cared for them. Both are crate trained, but only spend a few hours at a time in their crates. They can be adopted together or separately as both are very other-dog oriented and both need to be with another dog in their new home. B oth dogs are very good with both the elderly and the very young, but as they like to jump, neither of them should be in a home where young children or disabled elderly live. Morgan and Libby are typical adolescents and are still into stealing and tearing up whatever they can get. Both do well in day care. They are not walked daily on leash, but when they walk f ro m the car to day care on leash they do very well. Lib by plays with the little dogs and she plays gently with them , but Morgan tends to hang with the people until he gets to know the other dogs. When Libby and Morgan play together, they tend to play rough with a lot of growling and snarling taking place. Libby tends to be a food guarder, so the dogs are fed in separate places in the house. Both Morgan and Libby are big eaters, probably a result of being emaciated at the time they were rescued. They are being t aught to sit for treats and respect the one-at-a-time rule. Lib by is very sweet, but sassy and smart. S he is quiet about her thefts, and she really is stealing with a puppy attitude of fun...gloves, shoes, magazines, and many toys cannot withstand her sharp little teeth. Libby does love to be kissed and cuddled. She and her foster sister, Shelby, are fairly matched in weight and size and they box and wrestle and fuss and chase for hours on end. Libby loves to play. She is especially joyful when she first wakes up and when you arrive home from work. The se are really great dogs that can’t help that they are going thru their “teenage” years. Without a doubt, once they mature, they will be a wonderful addition to any family.

  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.
