dna is in foster care and learning and adapting every day to her neighborhood, friends and dogs. She is very affectionate and energetic and attaches quickly to everyone around her. She is loved very much by her foster parents and did well with all members of the boarding and doggie day care facility she attended when her foster parents occasionally left town, ie over the holidays. She’s playful, friendly, happy, accepts house guests well, and is so fun to be around! Edna is still learning basic commands. She does like to run and bark with the pack but can be easily settled with a variety of chew toys, as she will play quietly by herself for quite a while. She sleeps quietly through the night – yes, she will expect to sleep with you - and you can expect her to initiate contact as morning grows close. Edna enjoys going to parks, restaurants and breweries. She is good on leash but could use some on-leash training when she sees other dogs; she is lanky, fast and loves to run. She is mostly housetrained but needs ongoing reinforcement at her age but her healthy appetite will help with training. She is also very easy to re-direct. Edna adapts well to her surroundings, is an absolute joy to have in the house and is an excellent watch dog. She takes direction from older, mature, dogs well. Edna will play by herself in the backyard (we recommend a fenced yard for her because she loves to run) and keeps herself entertained when a human or other dog is not available to play. Importantly, she is quite the little lady when it comes to resources and never challenges her foster fur brother when food or treats are being distributed. She never growls or bares her teeth around other dogs. Edna is looking for a loving home with people and dog(s) who will play with her and show her tons of affection. She is a very sweet and happy girl who can't wait to find her forever home. She does bark regularly (but not excessively) so she may not be ideal for a close apartment/condo-type situation. PAW places animals in the Washington, DC/Baltimore Metropolitan area only.

  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.
