more information, including Frequently Asked Questions. **Meet Chance – Your Future Adventure Buddy!** Approx. 18 months old • 70 lbs (and growing!) • High Energy • Chance is a big, goofy, lovable pup with a heart as big as his paws. At about a year and a half old, he’s still very much in the “giant puppy” phase—full of energy, curiosity, and a deep love for his people. He’s been with his foster family for just two weeks and is already making huge strides. Chance lives with two older German Shepherds (ages 7 and 11) who tolerate his puppy antics, and he adores them both. He’s learning how to play appropriately, though he can get a little competitive during fetch—sometimes “stealing” the ball from his foster siblings. He loves toys, especially durable rubber balls and chews. Plush toys don’t stand a chance with Chance! This boy is *not* crate trained, but he uses a dog door to potty outside and has had very few accidents after the first week in his foster home. He’s extremely bonded to his foster dad and his girlfriend, and he thrives best when his people are nearby. For that reason, a work-from-home or stay-at-home situation would be ideal. Chance’s leash manners are still a work in progress—he’s all over the place right now—but he’s eager to learn. He will require **a lot** of daily exercise and mental stimulation to keep him happy and balanced. This is not a dog who will be content with a short walk and a nap—he’s built for an active lifestyle and will flourish with an adopter who wants a true adventure companion. Currently, Chance weighs about 70 lbs but is nearly as tall as a Great Pyrenees in his foster home. He’s underweight and still growing—his foster dad suspects he’ll reach 85–100+ lbs at full maturity. Chance has already been groomed, neutered, and is ready to start the next chapter of his life. He’s affectionate, loyal, and will make an incredible best friend for the right person—someone ready for the joys (and challenges!) of a big, young, high-energy Shepherd. If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you laughing, keep you moving, and love you endlessly, Chance might just be the one. Our adoption process consists of a telephone interview, a call to your veterinarian and a home visit. If you have any questions about the adoption process please contact sgsrtreasurergmail .

  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.
