They thrive when they have a job to do and a person to please. These dogs are confident, trainable, and often protective of their families. While they enjoy outdoor activities and mental challenges, they are equally happy relaxing at home with their people. With proper training and affection, a German Shepherd like Missy is a dependable and devoted best friend. Missy’s Story & Personality: Missy spent most of her early life living outside, but now she’s loving the comforts of an indoor home and being part of the family. She enjoys lounging on the couch or her dog bed in the evenings and playing fetch or exploring the yard during the day. She does well with larger dogs but isn’t a fan of cats or small animals. Missy walks nicely on a leash but can get excited when setting out on an adventure. Her leash manners are improving with gentle redirection. She has settled wonderfully into home life and is always eager to be near her people. Missy’s Perfect Home: A home with a securely fenced yard Someone who enjoys walks, hikes, or playing fetch in the yard A family looking for a loyal, affectionate dog Another similarly sized dog would be a bonus playmate No cats or small pets in the home A household where she won’t be left alone too long—she loves her people!

  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.
