f heart and had a will to live! Their mom is said to be an American English Coonhound; dad -unknown. Todd is currently 4-months old and weighs about 20 pounds. He will likely grow to be a medium sized (40-60 pound) with long ears, short fur, and a exceptional nose so that he can sniff out those critters! Todd is the goofiest boy; he loves to play with his foster siblings, especially outside. He can find any piece of a paper towel or toilet paper, and have the most amazing time! He is also very curious, precocious and so much fun to watch as he explores each new thing he encounters. He bonded very quickly with his foster mom and her teen-aged daughter and loves to cuddle and snuggle AFTER he has worked off some of his energy playing outside. He can be a bit stubborn and single minded if he's focused on an action or object. Todd is crate trained and is working diligently on house training. He has shown some slight food aggression, so he is fed in his kennel. This is something that also will need to be taken into consideration. Todd can be slightly timid when it comes to new things (it took him a bit to figure out stairs!) He is a follower in most of the shenanigans the dogs in his foster home get into. He is learning to vocalize and will let you know when he thinks you aren't paying attention to what he's trying to tell you. He is also the first to come up to new people and make their acquaintance and never met a treat he didn't like. Todd will need a job to do and will thrive in an environment with other dogs to help show him how to pack. He will require a lot of activity, daily exercise and humans to love and provide him with companionship. A large fenced in yard would be preferred as well as frequent walks with his humans. Siblings: Todd (M) Copper (M) Lucy (F) If you are interested in meeting Todd, please complete an online application at hopeanimalrescueofiowa.duplie/forms/196/dog-application Adoption fee is $300 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, and age appropriate vaccines.

  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.
