keting and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting. ***** Fezzik (Fez) is 3yo, weighs 130lbs, is neither neutered, nor up to date on his vaccines, nor microchipped. "Fez is a big boy with a big voice, but a sweet, gentle soul. He would be best in a home with adults or older kids. He loves kids and cats and wants to play with them but doesn't always realize how big he is. Fez loves bath time, playing tug-of-war, and being around people. He loves to have access to his crate and toys. He can be protective of his food if other animals are around. He knows the commands sit, down, off, crate and touch. He also knows spot and come but is more often than not stubborn and will not listen. Fez dislikes having his backside touched and is terrified of the vacuum, but he's very good during car rides." Fez's guardian states the reason she has made the difficult decision to rehome him: "Our yard is small and he does not have space that a dog his size needs to roam and exercise. We live in a small 3 level townhouse that he is scared to go up and down one of the larger flights of stairs. We have been unable to leash walk him did to his size. We have tried private and group training. I don’t feel like we are giving him the best life and want him to be in a home where he can be happy, comfortable, and have the space he needs to play, sleep, and live." Fez's guardian states the following regarding children: Fez lives with children, ages 10 and 16, so his guardian recommends his living with children, stating "He gets excited and will jump around and sometimes barks for attention. Both of these can be intimidating for kids, especially younger ones." Fez's guardian states the following regarding dogs: Although Fez doesn't live with dogs, his guardian recommends his living with dogs, stating "He's excited and pulls to get to them and barks at them." Fez's guardian states the following regarding cats: Fez lives with cats, so his guardian recommends his living with cats, but has not been around cats outside the home. Fez's guardian describes him as: Playful Friendly Likes to be touched Affectionate Always at your side Indoor dog House-Trained Crate-Trained Likes men Likes women Fez's guardian describes his ideal future home: "Fez preferably needs a large, fenced in yard. He would love space to roam, run, and play. He loves water, so a pool, pond, or something on property or close would be nice. He would do fine in a home with cats, but most cats would not appreciate his playfulness and size. I think he would do well with other dogs."

If you're looking to adopt a dog and don't know where to start, puppyfinder.com is an excellent source for information about adopting a dog and will connect you with hundreds of shelters across the US that have adoptable puppies and older dogs waiting for forever homes.

  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.
