who reached out to rescue. We take in many wonderful strays from this area, where shelters are overwhelmed and dogs are too often left to fend for themselves. Honey is now thriving in her foster home with two large dogs, including our handsome bully boy, Teddy. They quickly became best friends, and Honey has had such a positive impact on the whole pack. Her foster mom, Ruthann, shared: “Honey has brought new life into this house. Even my senior, Solo, is acting like a puppy again. They both adore her, and she loves to play.” Honey would do best in a home with another playful pup. She’s a sweetheart who loves to give kisses, romp in the backyard, and soak up the sun. Inside, she enjoys her toys, chew bones, and belly rubs, flopping right onto her back on the bed to ask for them! She has great house manners and is fully potty-trained. On leash, she does well and seems to have some practice. At mealtimes, she even sits politely for her food or a treat. Honey is young with a medium energy level; she’ll have playful bursts but then happily settles down with a toy. Honey has also met the neighbor kids and did wonderfully. With her social, affectionate nature, we think she’d make a fantastic family dog, especially in a fun, active home with a canine playmate. Apply today!

  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.
