ld male Maltese/Bichon mix, who weighs in at approximately 9.2 pounds. Rocket was brought to Angels by a Good Samaritan as a stray who was as dirty as can be and matted to the skin(see comments for before photo). She had found him sitting in the rain on the side of the road. It was obvious to all that nobody had cared for this boy in awhile, but when 10 days passed without a peep from anyone, we knew for sure. We just can’t figure out Why?!!?! Besides being tiny and adorable, Rocket has one of the most amazing temperaments we’ve ever seen. Talk about good natured and going with the flow! Do you think he complained about getting that huge hair cut? Nope! Not once. We know it wasn’t comfortable for him but he didn’t complain not even ONCE! We don’t know much about Rocket’s past - at some point someone helped him to become the kind and delightful boy he is today, we just don’t know what happened in between then and now. We think he would do well in a home with just about anyone. Due to his size, we do require a home with kids who are 8 and up. He could probably be fine with one or more dogs in the home, but a meet and greet with any resident canines would be required. Cats shouldn’t be a problem, most of them are bigger than he is anyway! We do not know if he is house trained (he does seem to be pee pad trained to some extent) but this boy is smart enough to get the whole going outside thing very quickly! He seems to be pretty well crate trained, and rides well in the car. This little dude is a GEM! His huge personality, joy for life and sweet demeanor along with all the tiny kisses he gives, will melt your heart. If you are interested in Rocket, we are currently accepting applications.

  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.
