aid to be a lab mix although she does like to have some Shepherd in her. Zoe is looking to be adopted by a loving, active, and full of life family to continue growing up with. Being just over a year old she has still plenty of puppy energy and enthusiasm in her. She’s looking for a family who will keep her active and playful. Zoe does great with other dogs and LOVES kids. Her current foster home keeps her busy with dogs, a toddler and infant, chickens, horses, and a barn kitty who only just tolerates Zoe and her active self. So, to say the least Zoe has exposure to a lot. She is working on walking on a leash and is improving daily. Consistent training will be the key to her success as a grown girl. Zoe is mostly potty trained but can have nervous accidents when in a new place. Zoe can be timid and reacts to loud noises when she’s in a new place and wants to hide so desensitization by exposing her to new things in a controlled manner and with a loving hand will be a must when adopted. Zoe is currently being kennel trained and is learning that is safe place to lay down when she gets tired. Overall, Zoe is a good girl without a mean bone in her body but still has plenty of puppy so she will need to continue her training while also getting plenty of love in her new adopted home If you are interested in meeting Zoe, please complete an online application at hopeanimalrescueofiowa.duplie/forms/196/dog-application Adoption fee is $250 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, and age appropriate vaccines.

  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.
