Georgia, and she is just about as sweet as a Georgia peach. Since Lyla arrived it is clear that she really loves being with people, anywhere we are she wants to be there too. If you let her, she would crawl onto your lap and soak up all the love you want to give. She honestly makes a great movie marathon partner all cozied up on the couch. She immediately got along just fine with our more energetic young male dog and pays no attention to our small female dog. She will play with the male when he initiates it but is completely content to just lounge on the couch or on the deck in the sunshine. Going for a car ride? She’s down for that too and likes to look around (but would literally crawl into your lap and be your bonus driver if she could). Lyla did meet a set of human triplets that are a year old and seemed to not really pay them any mind. That said, she would probably feel more comfortable in a home without lots of small human noise and activity as she did seem a little overwhelmed when the triplets all started crying at once. Lyla is house trained and crate trained. She goes into the crate like it’s no big deal and doesn’t fuss. She also would sleep either on her own comfy dog bed next to your bed or right with you in bed if you invite her. She has not shown any real interest in toys but is very into treats and is food motivated so that would make future training quite easy. She walks nice on a leash, doesn’t pull but could use some refining if you don’t want her zigzagging in front of you. Her recall isn’t 100% but it is pretty good considering she has only known the name Lyla since she arrived in our home. She also did great getting a bath at the pet store. Lyla really is such an easygoing, sweet, friendly dog. She will be such an amazing best friend for the right person or family. Now for the only item of disclosure. Lyla did have a little trouble with incontinence (some urine leakage). However, we have seen the Dogtor (veterinarian) and she was prescribed medication to help with that. Great news, it did help, and she does not have her leaky faucet while on this medication. She just may need to be on it for a while, vet thought it may be possible to take her off it at some point in the future. Other than that, Lyla is up to date on all vetting, is microchipped and spayed. We do not know how she is with cats or children over the age of 1 but has been very friendly to every dog and person she has met so far. She does like to keep the yard clear of squirrels though, they don’t get to hang around here, not on her watch.

If you're looking to adopt a dog and don't know where to start, puppyfinder.com is an excellent source for information about adopting a dog and will connect you with hundreds of shelters across the US that have adoptable puppies and older dogs waiting for forever homes.

  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.
