uite vocal during play, but has some resource guarding around food and high-value treats like bones. The safest way to manage resource guarding is to offer an item of equal or higher value (trading up) to help teach confidence around prized possessions. OTHER PETS: Remy has been relaxed around other dogs, and has even offered some play bows! She's been playful and eager to greet the other dogs she's seen, but as always would need to meet any dog she may be living with prior to adoption. [Case-By-Case (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Remy would do best with someone that has experience with large/stronger dogs, as well as current knowledge on dog body language & communication, and positive reinforcement to help Remy learn important skills and build confidence. [Experienced] KIDS: Because of Remy's discomfort with some types of handling and her history of resource guarding, she would do best in a home with no children. [Adults Only] ACTIVITY LEVEL: Remy can be excitable, especially during play, but settles well once she realizes play time is over. She's a dog that will thrive with access to various kinds of both physical and mental enrichment, including puzzle games, casual walks around the neighborhood, or more adventurous activities like hiking--with the support of positive reinforcement training. [Good Walking Buddy / Olympic Athlete] VETERINARY CARE: Remy has been found to be lyme positive. Though this doesn't seem to affect her currently, lyme is a life-long diagnosis and it's likely that she may have flare-ups every so often, so having an established relationship with a vet would be ideal. Otherwise, Remy is in good health and seems to be ready to take on the world! [Above Average] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Remy is still at the beginning of her positive reinforcement training journey, and will do best learning with someone who can offer both patience and confidence while she adjusts. Positive reinforcement will help Remy not only learn her basic cues & skills, but also help her to bond with her new owner. [Moderate] GROOMING: Routine brushing will help to minimize shedding in the home. [Minimal]

  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.
