og that loves all people. Soon after her arrival we realized that Nayla has vision problems. She got along well and did not run into things, but she could not see small objects like treats until we put them right in front of her nose. She has been seen by an ophthalmologist and was put on steroid eye drops. Her vision has improved some , her vision is estimated at 30%. She gets around well in spite of her disability. Nayla needs a special home. She walks good on a leash and loves to go for walks. She would do best in a home being the the only dog. Although she is good with other dogs, she tends to dominate. She needs a home where someone is home more and a fenced in yard. She would do better in a quieter environment. Nayla can not climb stairs. She needs a home with older children. Nayla must continue to see a vet to have her eyes checked and maintain her steroid eye drops. Eye drops last for 2 months and cost under $50. We are not charging an adoption fee because she is special needs and will need ongoing vet care. We are also looking for an adopter within a 50 mile radius of Northwest Indiana. Nayla is up to date on vaccinations, spayed 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.
