or a good boy like him! Overlooked time and time again, Chops is desperate for a home where he can finally rest his head in peace and comfort. A Social and Playful Soul •Dog-Friendly: Despite his senior status, Chops is a social boy who thrives in the company of other dogs. He regularly attends playgroups, enjoys romping around, and is vocal when playing—that's just his fun-loving personality shining through! •Affectionate: Chops is okay with being petted and is a friendly, social dog who has so much love to give. He needs an owner who will shower him with the gentle hands and warm heart he deserves. Chops is an active senior, but he requires structure to manage his enthusiasm: •Leash Manners: Chops is easy to leash in his kennel, but he exhibits a strong pull on walks. He is also reactive to dogs he passes while on the leash. His new owner needs to be committed to managing his energy and training him to walk politely. •Vocal Explorer: He can be vocal when walking, often sniffing and barking (non-reactively) at kennels he passes. He is happiest when he gets to run in a fenced yard and explore! •Needs a Recall Tune-up: Chops is currently not treat motivated and has poor recall—when called in the yard, he was more interested in running around! Because of this, Chops requires a home with a secure, fenced yard where he can safely play and burn off energy. Senior dogs like Chops deserve soft beds, warm hearts, and a peaceful home—not loud kennels and concrete floors. If you are looking for an active, loyal friend to join you for his golden years, Chops is ready to bond deeply with you.

  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.
