weighing 18 pounds, with the longest little body, short legs, and an adorable underbite that makes her extra endearing. She is a playful, medium-energy dog who is still a bit skittish but is slowly learning that life indoors can be safe and fun. Dory loves squeaky toys, chewing on bones, wrestling with other dogs, and even sneaking a little popcorn when she gets the chance. She has the cutest tail wag and a perky, joyful personality that shines brighter each day. She is treat motivated, sleeps soundly in her crate, and is doing well with a potty schedule, even using the doggie door on her own. Her coat is still filling in after her time on the streets, but with care and love she is blossoming into a healthy, happy pup. Dory is most comfortable with other dogs and thrives in their company, often taking her cues from them. She enjoys being near people, though she is still nervous about being touched and will need patience and understanding while she builds trust. She is shy with strangers, but her love for dog friends helps her come out of her shell. Dory is learning leash skills and rides quietly in a crate in the car. She would do best in a calm, patient home with at least one other dog, where she can continue to gain confidence and show off her playful side. With time, routine, and encouragement, Dory will reward her people with a cheerful spirit, endless doggy games, and that irresistibly cute wagging tail. Meet this dog at Petco on Saturday, Oct 4th from 1-4 pm CST at Petco, 377 W. Jackson St #11 Cookeville, TN 38501. Interested in adopting?

Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption.

  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.
