ttle wins. From her very first tail wags to cautiously napping outside her crate and even following her foster around the house, Elektra’s bravery and quiet curiosity are shining through. While still shy and not quite ready for pets, she’s begun investigating her human with cautious interest. Her favorite things include mealtime (especially her Farmer’s Dog meals), lounging in her cozy new bed, and quietly observing the world around her. Elektra’s energy is low to medium, but it's hard to know her full personality just yet—she’s still building her confidence in a safe environment. She’s reliably using pee pads inside the house (she never misses!) and is fully crate trained. Elektra would thrive in a quiet home with patient humans and possibly a calm, confident dog companion to help show her the ropes. A home near a park or outdoor space would be a bonus as she gradually builds trust and becomes ready for more adventures. She needs a home that understands the beauty of going slow—and celebrates every little milestone with her. She’s working on trusting humans and gaining confidence. While she doesn't know any commands yet, with time, love, and encouragement, she’ll get there.

  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.
