came up from Arkansas where I had been living in a shelter a VERY long time- like years long…and I mean people years. But then NDLB got a whiff of me and brought me here to MN to start living life in a home, and I gotta say I am loving it. Shelter life just wasn’t for me- I was a little too shy to get noticed, but in a home setting, my true personality comes out. Unlike my ‘That ‘70s Show’ namesake, I am NOT grumpy, impatient, or hard to please. A little love, a bowl of food, and a good belly rub are about all I need to make me happy. I am a shy boy, and tend to be skittish around new people, so don’t take it personally if I am nervous when we first meet. It seems like I warm up quicker to women over men, although I am non-discriminating when it comes to getting pets and scritches. I definitely pick one person in the household and gravitate more towards them. I have been very gentle with my foster mom and her friends. I did bark at her brother a few times to warn him to give me space, but backed away and retreated to my kennel. I did warm up to him after a few days, but I remain cautious. I have had limited interactions with children, but the few I have met, I let pet me although I was nervous. I have met some cats, and they seemed fine. I just ignored them. I have been good with my foster dog brothers, even trying to initiate some play when I get excited. I would love a doggy sibling, but I would also be content as an only dog. I haven’t picked up on this toy thing, although some of them are like small pillows, and I LIKE lying on pillows! As for energy, I am pretty chill overall. I get zoomies especially when I am getting let out of my crate, and I like my walks, but you would not describe me as high energy. My favorite spot is on the couch with you, but I do like my kennel, it makes me feel safe and I will go right in if you ask and stay quiet and content after a few barks to remind you to come back soon! I am fine in there overnight or when you are gone, I just don’t love not being in the same room as you if you are home. My mom lets me out some while she works and I have never been destructive or naughty when she isn’t looking. I usually just lie in her office in case she needs to give me a few pets between her calls. I did have a few accidents in the house when I first arrived, but I have since mastered only potting outside. I am a dream on walks, no pulling or barking, I just stay right by your side! I am also good in the car. Anyways, I would love to meet you and get to know you a bit better too! Hope to see you soon.

  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.
