Dog Breed: Unknown breed (short coat). Dasher doesn’t look or act his age one bit—this guy has plenty of pep in his step and is eager to learn. In his foster home, he’s m

ade huge strides in his manners: he waits patiently outside rooms he’s not allowed in, doesn’t steal food (even when it’s right there on the coffee table), and settles right down on his nap spot when his time in the limelight is over. He’s also incredibly food-motivated, which makes training a breeze—whether it’s putting on his harness, hopping into the bath, or learning something new, a treat or dab of peanut butter is all the encouragement he needs. Dasher wants to be the top dog in your life and your home, so he’s looking for a pet-free household. He’d do best in a lower-traffic, quieter neighborhood where he can feel relaxed and confident, and he’s still working on perfecting his leash manners. In return, he’ll shower you with love, stay close, and brighten every day with his mix of smarts, sass, and sweetness. He’s a sweet, loyal, and very smart little man… maybe a bit too smart for his own good. He’s got a lot going on in that busy lil’ noggin and isn’t shy about letting you know when life isn’t moving fast enough for his liking. Yes, he can be a little bossy pants, but only because he knows exactly what he wants—your attention, your company, and your love. Age: ~10yrs Animal ID#: A-180239 Weight: 27.8 Mixed breed (It’s impossible to identify breed mix by sight alone, so for most dogs, their mix is only a guess.

  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.
