he was adopted once and has been in two foster homes, he was sadly returned due to chasing other animals. While he can't live with cats, chickens, or other small animals, and he has chased horses in the past, he has consistently shown that he can thrive in a home environment with the right structure. In foster care, Simba has shown many wonderful qualities: he's housebroken, crate trained, and an excellent leash walker. He is a sweet cuddle bug who loves to sleep in bed with his people. Volunteers and fosters describe him as a true gentleman who walks politely on leash, rides calmly in the car, and takes treats gently. He enjoys squishy toys, cuddles, and even helps dry himself after baths. Simba is also social and affectionate with other dogs. He does well with females and can successfully be integrated with males when properly managed. In playgroups, he offers polite greetings, sometimes plays, and is content to do his own thing. Currently, Simba is undergoing treatment for heartworm disease. He also has manageable skin and ear issues that have responded well to consistent care. He needs a calm, safe home where he can rest comfortably and heal. Please consider opening your home to Simba—this loyal and affectionate boy is ready to thrive with the right support.

  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.
