rall he's a young dog that would benefit greatly from positive reinforcement classes to learn his basic foundations, and he would love nothing more than to work on those skills alongside his new family. OTHER PETS: Brownie got along well with other dogs, but he can be a bit pushy with his play style. He prefers to be rough & rowdy with other dogs, and may try to hump when he gets overexcited. His best match would likely be another playful dog that will tolerate his puppy antics! (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Brownie can be jumpy and mouthy when he's excited. He would likely match best with someone that has positive reinforcement training experience, especially for higher energy dogs, and knows how to interact with them to provide good experiences. [Some Experience] KIDS: Brownie can be mouthy when he tries to initiate play, and can be possessive over toys and food. If living with another dog, food and toys should be given separately to help both dogs feel secure and avoid conflict. He would do best around people that can understand how to interact with him and when to let him have his own space. [13+ (Must Meet First)] ACTIVITY LEVEL: Brownie is a lot of dog with a lot of energy. In a home environment, he would do best with both routine daily walks and various forms of mental enrichment to keep his mind and body busy. Once his needs are met at the end of the day, he'd be happy to curl up and spend some time on the couch with his people! [Olympic Athlete] VETERINARY CARE: [Routine] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Brownie is still at the beginning of his positive reinforcement training journey, and will do best learning with someone who can offer patience while he adjusts. Positive reinforcement training will help Brownie not only learn his basic cues & skills, but also help him to bond with his new owner. [Moderate] GROOMING: Routine brushing will help to minimize shedding in the home. [Minimal]

  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.
