no fault of his own. His most recent owners were also unable to find housing that allowed pets. His most recent owners said Harlow does well with humans of all ages and described him as being outgoing, gentle, friendly, and affectionate (and cuddly)! He was also said to ride well in the car and to mind generally well. He has been known to dig and get into the trash on occasion, but he was said to be housebroken and kennel trained! Harlow is looking to be an only pet where he can soak up all the attention and cuddles to himself. He still needs slow introductions to other dogs when meeting them out and about. He is not very good at picking up on social cues and sometimes comes off too strong. If you are interested in meeting Harlow, please give us a call! 10/07/25 This cuddly boy is Harlow James! Harlow James was surrendered to the shelter because his owner was unable to find a pet-friendly lease in town. Harlow James was said to be the bestest boy and would love to find his new people to share his love with. Not only is a great at cuddling on the couch, but he also loves to go on outdoor adventures! Harlow James was said to be kennel-trained, housebroken, and rides well in a car. This boy also knows his basic commands and was said to generally mind well. However, he was said to lack body spatial awareness and to jump on people. His prior owner felt he would do best in a home without children, as he had a tendency to knock them over, and they were stated to make him anxious. Harlow James was said to well with the cats in the home, but can be selective with other dogs. Please ensure you are making slow, safe, and controlled introductions with all new animals to help set him up for success. Harlow James was said to have mild skin allergies and benefits from being on a limited-ingredient diet and occasional allergy baths. He was said to do well for his baths! If you are interested in meeting Harlow James, 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.
