ast months to trust and to lean into affection, play and new experiences. She has learned to love belly rubs, neck scratches and back scratches. She actively seeks affection and wants to be near her person. It has been a true joy to see her gain confidence and flourish under the loving care of her fosters! Libby has shown a true affinity for the water and swimming – she is learning dock diving and loves being a swimming pool, at the beach or in the lake. Her fosters have also taught her beginning agility, which she adores! Getting into the car and going places excites her, as it means new adventures. Even if she is a bit hesitant while she investigates new surroundings, she assesses new experiences and then relaxes right into them. Libby gets along great with her foster brother, and has a wonderful time playing with him. She has been neutral but curious with kids at a distance and likely would be fine with cats as she respects a firm “leave it” but would need to be closely supervised at first… until that first whack of a cat’s paw, then we think she would stand clear, lol. She is great in the crate, is doing great on basic obedience and does well on the leash. Environmentally sound, Libby is a dog you can take on adventures anywhere. Her tail may be tucked at first, but the initial hesitancy has not stopped her from successfully navigating every new experience her fosters have provided her, and they have done a fantastic job of opening up her world. Looking for an affectionate, adventure ready, athletic Malinois? Libby is ready to meet you and be your best girl!

  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.
