be near you for life. Mindy enjoys going for car rides and is excited when she sees her leash and is ready for that walk with you. She enjoys everyone and loves them all, but especially her family. Mindy really loves playing outside with you or the family and will go fetch toys when you throw them. Mindy is good with the other dogs as long as they are good with her; she doesn’t like confutation of any kind and will run to get by your side when that happens. Mindy is crate trained and house trained, she would like to be able to go outside to do her business but she does know that there is a potty pad down the hall if she can’t get outside. We recommend you put her in a crate when you leave for a couple of hours because this little girl likes to explore, especially on your tables. She doesn’t destroy anything; she just makes a mess with anything on the tables. Mindy gets along with cats and really doesn’t bother them. She loves sleeping in bed with you and will cuddle right up next to you and won’t get up until you do. She also loves cuddling up with you on the couch. This girl would make a wonderful addition to your family and she promises to give you lots of love. SECURE FENCING REQUIRED FOR ALL OF OUR RESCUED DOGS. For more information call (925) 473-4642. If you are considering adopting a dog through HALO Here are some helpful hints: Bring pictures of your yard to show secure fencing. Most of our dogs require a 6 foot fenced yard. Yards must be cleared of any fox tail weeds. The adoption donation is cash or check. We will adopt out to Contra Costa County residences only so that we may follow up on the dogs well-being to make sure that they are happy and thriving. We do adopt small dogs to apartments or condo and need to see pictures of the patio or balcony area. If you rent, please bring copy of your lease to show you can have pets and any size restrictions. We do not adopt to homes with children under the age of five (5) unless we know the history of the dog with young children. All Children MUST be present at adoption. If you own a dog and are looking for a friend please bring your dog with you so that they can be introduced to make sure that they will get along.

  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.
