! Name: Echo Best Guess for Breed: Corgi and terrier mix Best Guess for Age: 7 years as of July 2026 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 13 lbs Gets Along With: Echo does well with other dogs! We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home Special adoption considerations: Echo was rescued from a hoarding situation in South Carolina. He has not been well socialized with new people and has lived his whole life with other dogs. In addition, he only has vision in one eye and may be deaf. Being outside on a leash is a scary experience for him. He will need a patient adopter who can give him time to come out of his shell and learn that the world is a wonderful and welcoming place. And because he is shy, he needs to go to a home with a confident, welcoming resident dog who will show him the ropes. You may notice that his right eye is smaller than the left. It seems like it has been shrunken for a long time. It doesn't bother him and the vet's recommendation is to leave it alone. He can see out of his left eye but his vision is limited. We also believe he is deaf. Echo is Looking For: His forever home, filled with snuggles and opportunities to see the world! One where he is a cherished part of a family. He's very sweet, and SO ready to be a Real Dog. Extra patient and loving humans who introduce him to new places and people at his pace are exactly what he wants! Along with quality kibble, a cushy dog bed, and endless snuggles. You know what you get out of adopting a dog like that? An incredibly sweet and grateful dog who gives you all those adoring gazes, all the love and loyalty in his body, for all his days. What do you say? Is he the one for you? Are you his new chapter and forever home? What My Foster Says About Me: Echo is a sweet boy who seems hopeful about the future. Every time I’d look at him in the backseat on the drive home, he’d wag his tail. He isn’t comfortable walking on a leash. When he’s scared, his instinct is to lay down and freeze. If you sit with him and give him a moment, he’ll timidly army crawl to you with his tail wagging. Echo is cautiously confident inside but freezes when taken outside. We've created a small zone for him in the yard and he's working on becoming more confident there. He is very smart, food motivated, and eager to please. It's amazing to watch him mentally mapping out his little outdoor space. He met several kids at the adoption event and did really well! I think he’d be fine with older children. He’s sleeping well and likes his crate. He’s a very resilient dog and I think he’ll be a really rewarding dog to adopt. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter.

  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.
