ate trained and weighs 35 pounds. She has never had an accident in her foster home, and confidently can be left at home during a normal workday. Foxy is a sweetheart that loves to snuggle on the couch. Also high on her list is playing catch. She will impress you with her acrobatic skills, especially if you have a Frisbee nearby. She is looking for a forever home where she'll get lots of attention and affection. She gets along with children just fine; she has been around a toddler and a newborn since being in foster care. Foxy does not play nice with other dogs and wants to chase cats, so a home as the lone animal is what she really needs to feel safe. Being outside makes Foxy happy. She will need a home with a fully fenced yard because she loves to run. City living is not for Foxy -- traffic makes her anxious, as does riding in a car. A home in the country would be the best fit for Foxy. Her ideal owner/family would be one with experience with Australian Cattle Dogs or other herding/working breeds. Foxy is loyal, protective and alert. She embodies the Blue Heeler breed to a "T." She is an intelligent girl and she will make up her own rules if you don't give her any. She will follow her owner everywhere and inquire as to how she can help with any task or project. She is very treat-driven, which means training this smart cookie can be fun and prove to be fruitful. She loves all toys and bones are always a bonus. Foxy is looking for a “foster to adopt” situation at this time, one that will ultimately lead to her permanent home. We want what is best for Foxy and want to be absolutely certain that her placement will be a permanent one so while she is with you she will be enrolled in a training program with one of our qualified, professional trainers in the area at our expense. Through this program we hope that she will flourish in your care and continue to take positive steps in the right direction. Once her training is completed, her adoption will become official.

  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.
