We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting. ***** Dior is an XL Bully, is 3yo, weighs 130lbs, is neutered, is up to date on his vaccines but is not microchipped. Dior knows the command 'sit'. He is alone 9-10 hours per day and has free roam of the home; he sleeps in his crate at night; he is very good during car rides; he eats 50% homemade/50% kibble. Dior's guardian explains why she has made the difficult decision to rehome him: "I do not want a dog. My lifestyle does not align with having this responsibility. I only took him in because there was a death in the family and I didn't want to see him go to a shelter." Bite incident: In July 2023, in Manassas, Virginia, Dior bit another dog over food; the bite didn't break the skin and animal control was not involved. Dior's guardian explains: "This was due to my fault solely. I wasn't educated about resource guarding. Two dogs were present and I went to throw Dior a treat in the air to catch it and a fight broke out." Dior's guardian offers a brief a medical history: "Dior has seasonal allergies and he's allergic to poultry, grain, and pork. He is currently on a grain-free diet and takes Benadryl on a daily basis." Dior's guardian states the following regarding children: Although Dior hasn't lived with children, his guardian recommends his living with older children, stating "He has never been directly around children. He has only been around minimum contact with my teenage niece who sometimes will walk with us". Dior's guardian states the following regarding dogs: Although Dior has lived with dogs, his guardian doesn't recommend his living with dogs, his guardian doesn't recommend his living with dogs, stating "Not reactive". Dior's guardian states the following regarding cats: Since Dior hasn't lived with nor otherwise been around cats, his guardian doesn't recommend his living with cats. Dior's guardian describes him as: Quiet Playful Friendly Likes to be touched Affectionate Independent Indoor Only Pet House-Trained Crate-Trained Dior's guardian describes his ideal future home: "A home with teenagers who will play with him and give him lots of attention. Or, a home with an active adult who loves the outdoors." Rehoming Fee: None Location: Manassas, Virginia ***** ADOPTION PROCESS 1. If you are interested in ADOPTING me, please CLICK HERE: ADOPT ME 2.

  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.
