us home, but has endured a difficult past. True to her breed, her energy can be rather intense at times, especially when she’s focused on chasing a ball or engaged in similar play. She can also be a champion couch potato, content to be curled up near her human and under a blanket, if possible. Peg gets along with the other dogs in her foster home, but she can be a bit much for them sometimes. She might enjoy a canine playmate, but could need an adjustment period for that; she may not be a good fit with every dog, especially another dog with a strong personality. She cannot share a home with a cat, and is also probably not compatible other small animals either. An ideal adopter for Peggy would be someone who has experience with Boston Terriers or a breed with a similar disposition - a Boxer, for instance. A fenced yard is desirable, and depending on the home, may be required. She can and would easily knock over a child, with no harm meant, but could hurt them just the same. Now for the good stuff! She’s crated while her foster mom isn’t home, but she’d probably be fine if she was allowed to be out and about inside the house on her own. She’s never chewed or been destructive in any way, and rarely has potty accidents. She loves to play ball, as already mentioned. She also loves chew toys, rubber squeaky toys, stuffed bones - all of the usually items that most dogs enjoy. At night, she wants to sleep right beside her human on the big bed. During the day when playtime is done, she wants to sleep right beside her human on the couch. Peg is happy to go along for car rides and even gets to accompany her foster mom to work sometimes. Peg is a very good dog. We really want to find a home for her where she can thrive and be her silly, spunky self. She’s overcome some hardships recently, and she certainly deserves a chance at a brighter future and a happy ever after. If Peg sounds like the one for you, let’s get the ball rolling!

  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.
