nd she loved every minute of it. She was well behaved and after a brief hesitation of meeting my camping partners she quickly fell in love with them as well. She was wonderful for the entire trip, she was a perfect lady in the car, she just looked out the window contently. She loved being outside and sitting by the campfire, she would come up and lay by each one of us, and ask to be loved on. At night, she slept in the sleeping back with me under the stars. She really enjoyed cuddling, and was a champ at it. She also kept a very close guard on the camp and would let us know if anyone or any animal was approaching. All and all she did a great job. I hated having to bring her back. She is going to make someone an amazing loyal and loving dog. She is an ideal dog for someone who is looking for a dedicated and loyal companion to take on outdoor adventures. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Sheila, and I am just a sweet girl, looking for love. The best setting for me is a low traffic household with a single person or a couple who can give me lots of attention and activity. I love to go on nice long walks, so if you want company on a run I am your girl!!! I prefer to be the only pet as I would like to have all your love and attention. As far as other dogs, I am not a fan of other female dogs, but I do play well with the calm, male dogs here at the center. I am not a big cat fan either, sorry! Also, a s I can jump a pretty high fence, please take me on walks or hang out with me while I am outside in the yard:) I love, love, love car rides and will in sit in the backseat and just look around! I am 100% housetrained, well mannered, and have so much love to give. Sheila is heartworm positive but that should not prevent her from finding her forever home. At the time of adoption, you will be supplied with literature regarding our slow kill method. Any questions regarding heartworms please call us. We also recommend that if you are not familiar with heartworm to speak to your veterinarian about the slow kill method.

  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.
