t given time and space, she will warm up to you. In new surroundings, she is def scared and prob should not be left alone in a yard as she can jump and might try to escape. We had her in playgroup and this silly creative girl ended up jumping on one of our barrels in the yard and jumped over the high fence. Luckily, she didn't run but instead stood there seemingly curious as to how and why she was on the opposite side of the fence as the other dogs. LOL Just to be safe, she should be monitored while outside. We don't know her background but we do see a happy active pup who loves to run. She was fine with other dogs as long as they didn't try to grab her or play rough. Running and chasing was fine. Fruit Bat is slowly warming up to us, one by one. She allowed me to pet her and hang with her in the yard with her at my side. That's what we know about her so far! We will update when we learn more. Fruit Bat is currently in a back kennel so if you don't see her when you come in, please just ask.

  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.
