to the shelter as a stray and surrendered over the phone. It was noted that Ruger does have some separation anxiety and can be a bit anxious when left alone. However, his surrendering owner stated that he is kennel-trained and does well in his kennel. We encourage his next owner to discuss separation anxiety and what they can do to help him feel most at ease. Ruger was said to enjoy sleeping in bed under his blanket. He was also said to be housebroken, ride well in a car, and know his basic commands! We encourage his next owner to bring him to a basic obedience class with a certified trainer to continue working on his manners and to learn a trick or two! He may also enjoy scent work classes! Ruger was known to be vocal and will get into trash if left unsupervised. He was said to do well with babies and children! He can be skeptical of new people so proper introductions should be made! Ruger warmed up to the care staff and has loved all the attention! It was also stated that Ruger has no experience with cats and does not appreciate the company of rambunctious puppies. He was stated to do well with older calmer dogs. Please ensure you are making slow, safe, and controlled introductions with all new animals to help set Ruger up for success! Ruger may prefer being in a single pet home. If you are interested in meeting Ruger and have a home that can meet his needs, please let us know!

  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.
