ace. In the beginning, he had trust issues with food and toys, but he quickly learned that there was nothing to fear. He is great friends with our energetic 10 year old resident dog. They can roughhouse like a couple of toddlers. Many times, I put them out onto the deck or in our fenced-in yard. A fenced-in yard is a plus for Polar. He gets the zoomies and that’s a perfect spot for him to run. His back legs are weak, so the zoomies don’t last long. Polar does get excited to go for short walks. He is easily distracted by new smells and he forgets that he is on a leash and wants to investigate everything. We do have an old resident cat. She puts up with very little, she doesn’t run and he has learned not to bother her. He will, however, Chase outdoor kitties. We are probably very prejudiced, but we think Pollar is very sensitive and smart. He takes scolding very seriously, so we have to be careful not to shame him. Verbal commands he knows are stay, wait, leave it, OK and treat. Polar has his own special space in our house, so when it’s time to go to bed or kennel up, we will say” time to go night night polar “or “go to your room, “ and he immediately does. There is one special command we use and it is TRADE. We use this when he has something that he shouldn’t have. An example, he found a glove on the floor. He’s not supposed to have it, so we get a treat or two, show it to him and say TRADE. He will drop the glove, get the treat, we take the glove and all is good. Like I said, we are prejudiced. It is nice to come home and see this smiling white ball of fur greet us in the morning or when we return from work. Polar would be a wonderful addition to your forever family Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $525.00

  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.
