mp;hearts;️ Overall medium energy for his mix (best guess is ACD/Aussie likely with some other breeds thrown in), Meatloaf is happiest by your side with a toy in his mouth. He loves self-entertaining with squeaky toys, but is also down for a round of tug and enjoys fetch. He's done super well coexisting around new people and dogs, and in new environments - he's just happy to be included. He'll make an excellent active companion and has the makings of a great go-anywhere dog for the right owner! Meatloaf had a rough start as an outdoor kennel dog, but he flew out of Kentucky like a bat out of hell with his buoyant spirit and zest for life intact. He's adapting to pet dog life with ease, doing well in the house and excellent in his crate. He needs some shoring up with leash skills and manners, but has an agreeable personality and wants to please. Older kids may be best for him since he can get a little jumpy when excited - at around a year old he is fully grown but still has a lot of goofy puppy energy. With a little more training for the basics he'll be a socially responsible rockstar! Meatloaf is very dog-social, he can coexist fairly well if leashed but if left to his own devices will try to play in a friendly-but-rude way. He plays well with appropriately matched dogs, needing a little guidance here and there, and is learning to slow down a bit and read the room when another dog isn't interested in playing. He has not been cat-tested yet but shows pretty strong herding tendencies in play with dogs; with that in mind, prospective adopters with cats will need to be prepared to set appropriate boundaries and integrate slowly. Meatloaf is housebroken, crate trained, and rides well in a car crate (safety first!). He is an approximately 45lb, one year old neutered male. He is microchipped and up to date on vaccinations and monthly preventatives. Meatloaf is being fostered in Pembroke MA and needs to meet his potential family prior to adoption to ensure a great match.

  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.
