2023 as a local stray and after never being reclaimed, she was spayed, vaccinated and is all up-to-date waiting for her forever home. Sugar also had a health scare and emergency exploratory surgery during her first few weeks with us because she was vomiting after eating and couldn't seem to keep her food down. The veterinarian found she was battling an infection in her abdomen - but luckily the surgery was a success and Sugar was on the road to recovery and waiting for her forever family! Over the past year we did place Sugar on a daily medication (Apoquel) for allergies as she does seem to have red, itchy areas on her coat that flare up from time to time, and the medication seems to help keep her more comfortable, as well as being fed a kibble for sensitive skin. Sugar may now be a little spoiled with all the attention from many Safe Haven volunteers over the past two years ..... she is a known favorite, but shhh.....don't tell the other pups! ;) Sugar would do best in a home as an only pet, as she does not get along well with other dogs nor cats. Once you're able to meet Sugar - you will know, Sugar is the only pet you will need to fill your heart and she is a fantastic cuddlebug! Sugar is a very strong and active girl - always on the go!! She would love an active family with many long walks in her future - a fenced yard would be wonderful for this active girl as well! Strangers do seem to frighten Sugar and she has a pretty big bark at first to alert us that there is a new person there....but as soon as a new volunteer offers her a snack or treat - she is good to go! Interested in meeting or adopting Sugar? Please complete an online adoption application for her which can be found on our website at .wesavepets. Once the application is submitted, a volunteer will be in contact with you shortly.

  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.
