dane mix looking for an experienced large breed owner. She needs someone who is at home full-time and can work with her for about 5-6 hours a day on training. She has done wonderful so far, but on the days that training can not be met, she falls behind quickly. Maggie can not have kids around her due to her being unpredictable. Yes, she passed her assessment but if a child has a ball or toy she becomes weary and looks uncomfortable. Maggie also has some potty issues inside the house, but not all the time. Currently, I do have to separate her. I believe because I separate her is the reason she uses the bathroom in the house. I think she will stop this in no time. This past week though, she has done great! Maggie has become overly attached to me, and when dogs or even people are around she will show her teeth at them. When my fiancé is with her though, she does great with people and some dogs. I recommend her to be an only dog or maybe 1 other dog in the home. She does well with one of my dogs, but I have 5 and she does not like the rest. She does well with cats, but will try to play and chase them.Has to be a non reactive cat! Maggie is treat motivated and loves working! She has come along way since the first day I met her. She walks great on a leash, will sit to put leash on and off, and sits and waits for her food. She knows sit, lay down, paw, and wait. She loves going outside to roll around and play soccer with her ball. It will be required to have a min. 6ft fence because she can jump something smaller. Depending on the situation, she may be required to go to training, so she can be worked with when meeting new people and dogs. Her background has been rough, and she does have a hard time at first trusting new people. Her adoption fee is $300. Required vet reference, personal reference, must be on heartworm and flea preventative.LOCAL adopters only. There will be an adoption application with a written contract.

  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.
