py. She loves to spend time patrolling the back yard and has been happily coexisting here with two other cattle dogs for the past several months. Things were a little tense at first, but she’s warmed up to them and they to her. Having been a stray, Dumpling never had the chance to learn proper behavior but she’s figuring it out, like any smart dog would. Though not completely housebroken, she’s getting much better. She’s been on medication that made it more difficult for her to learn but now that she’s off the meds, she’s learning to behave like my other two cattle dogs. She’s very curious. She wants to know what’s behind every door and inside every box. Her new home will have to take this into consideration. She will benefit greatly from some more formal training. Dumpling’s the most affectionate cattle dog I’ve met. She loves to jump in your lap and wallow in a hug. She has to softest fur you can imagine and loves to have it stroked for as long as you’re willing. She adores her people! She’s not been around cats and given her exuberant nature, I suspect she would give them a hard time. I wouldn’t recommend she go to a home with them. I also think she probably shouldn’t be in a home with very small children. Her herding instinct is off the charts, and she’s been known to playfully nip at heels. Dumpling is a bit of an escape artist. She’s content to roam the yard but if she sees something irresistible on the other side of the fence, she will find a way to get there. Again, she would really benefit from some formal training. This dog needs a job. Nothing would make her happier than having space to patrol and a herd to protect.

  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.
