old female and is currently winning on a weight loss journey. Although likely mixed with a smaller breed (Border Collie) Milly lived in a home that unfortunately overfed her and didn’t take her out for exercise and this caused Milly to gain a LOT of weight. Her previous owner said she was a lazy dog and didn’t like to get out and be active. We are pleased to announce that since coming into her foster home she has lost 15 pounds and is continuing to drop weight, she is currently 92 pounds but still has some more work to do. Contrary to what we were told, Milly LOVES to be active! This girl’s favorite activities are hiking, playing (and lying) in streams, running around the park, and playing in a kiddy pool in the backyard. She can happily nap at home but truly loves to get outside, she has a perfect energy level. She does great with hopping into the car and riding quietly. Milly does well with almost any dog she meets, she is polite and friendly, a lovely disposition. Milly is beautifully housetrained and uses a dog door to take herself out to go potty. Although Milly has been crate trained, she loves to sleep in her lush bed with the rest of the pack. Milly is at a wonderful mellow age where she is not destructive in a home. She is a great guard dog and will alert you if a stranger is coming but warms right up to new people. Milly is fantastic with respectful kids! She has had a lot of exposure in her life to all ages of children. She is a favorite among her foster mom’s grandkids (sometimes they come over just to see Milly). Milly does good on a leash and even gets walked by the grandkids. Milly would likely have no issues living with a cat We've held on to Milly her extra-long because her foster mom has cancer and Milly has been such a sweet comfort; concernedly walking her mom from room to room and sticking to her bedside whenever she lays down so that her soft ears are always within reach. Her foster mom is finally ready to have Milly move onto her home forever. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and just had her teeth cleaned and examined by the vet! She is excited and ready to be adopted into a wonderful home. If you are looking for one of the sweetest, most ideal dogs around, you can provide a loving home with exercise and a healthy amount of food, then come meet Milly AKA Flopsy Pants!

  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.
