oves with his whole heart—and all he really wants is a soft bed and a human to share it with. He’s your classic velcro dog, happily following you from room to room just to be near you. Hercules will melt your heart with his adorable little sighs and grunts when he’s content, and he’ll gently offer his paw when he wants a little extra love. Belly rubs? Mandatory. Snuggles? He’s an expert. Cat-friendly superstar! Hercules has done wonderfully with his foster’s 17-year-old cat. Dog compatibility: A bit of a mixed bag. He’s had both positive and reactive interactions, so he may do best as the only dog—but could potentially live with another calm pup with slow, proper introductions. Energy level: Low to moderate. He enjoys leisurely 1–2 mile walks and walks nicely on leash. Smart & food-motivated: He knows “sit” and “leave it” (with some selective hearing ). Be warned—if you leave his food bowl out, he will toss it around asking for seconds! House manners: Fully house-trained and even taught himself to use a doggy doorbell—smart boy! He also figured out how to remove his own e-collar after surgery… so yes, he keeps you on your toes. Travel buddy: Great in the car and absolutely loves rides. Crate trained: Yes—with a little protest whining when you first leave (he just misses you!). Hercules is ready to give his whole heart to someone special. Could that be you? Applying is the first step to meet him - APPLICATION (See our Dog Adoption FAQs before applying)

  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.
