loves to do whatever you’re doing. She wants a house where she can run, jump, and climb over all sorts of things, and where you’ll provide her lots of fun toys to fetch and chew. She is learning some foundation sports skills in foster, and would love to go to a home that would let her play her favorite games. Like most teenage Shepherds, she needs help with walking on a loose leash. However, she works very well for praise, attention, food, ball, and other toys, so she’s easy to teach. Thistle can already sit, drop toys, and fetch! Thistle is a sweetheart who melts on every new person she meets for hugs and kisses. She hasn’t met children yet in her foster, but would likely do well with them. She’s friendly and excitable towards other large dogs, so she could be too much for a shy or senior dog. She acts similarly towards cats and small animals. She would love to have a playmate or two... if they can keep up! At the shelter, Thistle guarded against a hand in her food bowl by freezing and growling. She hasn’t displayed any issues in foster, but a good home for Thistle should still continue teaching her that there’s no need to be nervous. In foster, she is happy to trade her toys, chews, or food bowl for something else fun. If you are an active family who’d like to compete in dog sports, Thistle is ready to win you over! This girl is just too sweet to pass up. Because of her high energy and drive, she will require a German Shepherd experienced home, She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and heartworm negative. Her adoption fee is $400.00 plus tax.

  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.
