and a half old, he’s basically a teenager who somehow skipped school and went straight to recess. His previous routine mostly involved enthusiastically existing in a haome and yard, so now he’s ready to branch out into exciting new subjects like Walks, Adventures, and Advanced Sniffing Techniques. He’s energetic, incredibly sweet, and always ready for fun, with a playful, curious personality that’s just waiting for the chance to shine. He’s lived with a small dog before and did well—more “big, bouncy buddy” than troublemaker. He’s crate trained, comes when called, and can be safely contained in a 6-foot wooden fenced yard, so no surprise escape artist tendencies. He will need some leash walking lessons, as this whole “going places with humans” thing is still new to him. Think of it less as a problem and more as an opportunity to train/bond—and possibly get a good arm workout in the process. Right now, he’s also beginning a very important personal journey: his weight loss era. Due to a lack of exercise in his previous home, he’s a little on the fluffy side, but he’s more than ready to swap extra snacks for hikes, playtime, and discovering that the world exists beyond the backyard fence. He didn’t get the time, attention, or outings he needed before, which just means there’s a lot of untapped potential packed into this happy, wiggly dog. With the right home, he’s going to blossom into an amazing companion. He’s looking for an active household that can give him regular exercise, mental stimulation, and a bit of guidance as he learns how to be the well-rounded dog he was always meant to be. If you’re ready for a sweet, adventurous, slightly goofy sidekick who will keep life interesting and keep you moving, he’s ready to meet you.

  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.
