o has been waiting around two years for her forever family. Willow is a gentle soul who really loves to hang out with her person/people, whether that’s laying on her dog bed in front of the fire, or chilling out on the couch while you binge watch your favorite show; she really simply enjoys your affection and attention. Willow's favorite time of day is going for a long walk on the nature trail with her foster dad, spending that time outside smelling the air and watching the wildlife. Prior to fostering, Willow enjoyed having a fenced yard. Willow previously lived nicely with a large, male, German Shepherd; she is not recommended for smaller dogs. This loyal and loving dog is completely housebroken and has very good home manners; we think she would make a wonderful family dog with kids older than 10, as the little ones make her very nervous. She really is just the sweetest dog. And would love to have her forever after. HAS SHE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU?? Willow is likely an American Staffordshire Terrier mix. She currently weighs about 57 pounds, but should probably weigh 60. She recently underwent knee surgery and has fully healed and is again enjoying her long walks. This dog has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, been wormed, tested for diseases, spayed, and microchipped.

  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.
