Porkchop is great with other dogs and would do well in a home with a playful friend that can help her let off some of that Cattle dog energy. Porkchop came by her name due to her miniature size and our Shelter Manager exclaiming "Look at you! You're a little porkchop!" and the name stuck. She is a huge fan of playtime and is especially adamant about having lots of toys. Porkchop arrived at Adopt-A-Dog after her former family felt she was not adjusting in their home. She was great with their dog and kids, but she was fearful of men and her owner's husband. We believe that Porkchop may not have been treated so well by men in the past, and she is apprehensive of them in general. We are building up her confidence, but she is definitely more comfortable around women versus men. For that reason, she would need more visits to become comfortable with the men in an adoptive family. We promise that Porkchop is well worth the effort and is beyond adorable once she has made your acquaintance. If Porkchop already sounds too good to be true, we'll end by telling you that she does love long walks (and runs!) on the beach and definitely would be a fan of candlelit dinners. Come meet her today! For more information or to meet Porkchop, please contact us at (914) 273-1674 or adoptions@adoptadog.org.

  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.
