wo. They are sweet and wonderful dogs. Four is a VERY active dog accustomed to living outdoors on a tether with a house, as is typical for sled dogs. He enjoys being in a dog yard and being able to say hello to his neighbors and play with them. He is very friendly to humans and dogs alike and loves playtime in our free-run pen. He is more shy than his brother but has warmed up to us more and more. He loves to run and does well in harness - both him and his brother have great athletic builds and lots of potential as sled dogs. Four is always moving, which has made it hard to get a good photo of him! Four is also an eager eater and loves meal time. I have been introducing him to bikejoring and he picked it up quickly so there is lots of potential for him to be an awesome bikejor/skijor dog. I think Four would do best in a home where he can primarily remain outside on a tether with a proper house, as this is how he is most comfortable, while slowly being introduced to the indoors. I think he would also like a home with another dog(s) he can be buddies with. He should also not be trusted to be loose unless in a secure fenced area. Potential adopters should be familiar with sled dogs and be ready to provide active outlets and secure housing for him. 01/22/26 These eager-to-go pups were surrendered to the shelter because their owner is facing some medical concerns and is unable to provide them with the lifestyle they need. They are working dogs and were said to be wonderful sled dogs! All these pups were stated to get along well with other dogs and are great pullers. They are accustomed to living out on a dog house but were said to have enjoyed coming inside during that super cold snap. However, they are not housebroken, and if you do plan on transitioning them to indoors, they will need help adjusting to indoor living – potty training, kennel training, basic commands, etc. They know mushing commands but that is about it. They would love to join a rec team or even to become your adventure buddy if you live an active lifestyle – skijoring, bikejoring, or even becoming your hiking buddy! Anything to keep them both mentally and physically stimulated so they stay out of trouble! If you are interested in meeting any of this crew or possibly the whole gang, please let us know!

  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.
