ever family! KIMBLE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!! Name: Kimble Best Guess for Breed: Terrier/Shepherd mix Best Guess for Age: 5 years as of January 2026 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 59 lbs Gets Along With: Kimble really wants to be the center of attention so we recommend he be the only dog in the home. We haven't seen him with kids, but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters. Kimble is a little too fixated with cats so he should not go to a home with cats. We'd be cautious about adopting Kimble to someone who lives in an apartment where Kimble would be in close quarters with other dogs in hallways and elevators. Currently Living at: DC area foster home Check out Kimble's Adventures in his Foster Home on Instagram: .instagram/himynameis_kimble/ Kimble is Looking For: Kimble is a sweet, devoted boy who wants nothing more than a love that lasts a lifetime and a family who won’t give up on him. He was originally adopted from Lucky Dog in 2021, but heartbreakingly, Kimble was found wandering as a stray in July 2025. Despite repeated attempts, his former adopter has not responded—leaving Kimble once again without a family through no fault of his own. Through it all, Kimble has remained a gentle, loving companion. He enjoys the simple pleasures in life: leisurely walks, sniffing everything along the way, playing in the yard, and curling up on the couch with his people. He doesn’t demand constant attention, but he’s happiest when he can be nearby, quietly keeping you company. His leash manners have improved tremendously—he used to pull, but he’s made great progress and continues to get better every day. With his love of exploring and relaxing outdoors, he’d make an excellent picnic buddy. Kimble is also a bit of a goofball—one of his favorite pastimes is rolling around in fluffy grass just because it feels good. Inside the home, he’s calm and easygoing, rarely barks, and is always up for a friendly game of tug. He’s crate-trained and has had no accidents in his foster's house. Kimble would thrive in a home where someone is around during the day, as he deeply values human companionship. He must be the only pet in the home and would do best in a setting that avoids close, frequent contact with other dogs—so a single-family home is preferred over an apartment with busy hallways and elevators. Kimble has already lost a family once. He’s hoping the next one will be his last. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who just wants to be close and belong, Kimble is ready to give you his whole heart—forever. What My Foster Says About Me: Kimble is a sweet, loyal boy who loves going on walks, playing in the yard, or relaxing on the couch with his people. He doesn’t need constant attention but likes being close. His leash manners have improved a lot—he used to pull but has made great progress! He enjoys sniffing everything and taking in all the sights, making him the perfect picnic buddy. Kimble is a little goofball and loves rolling in fluffy grass. Inside, he’s calm, rarely barks, and is always up for a game of tug. He hasn't had any accidents inside, he's crate-trained, and the ultimate movie-night companion—expect him to snuggle right between you. Kimble would thrive in a home where someone is around during the day, as he truly loves being near his people. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.

  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.
