s very sweet, very soft, and very shy. New situations can make him nervous, and loud noises and fireworks are especially scary for him. He needs a family who will give him some time, patience, and confidence-building while he figures things out. One thing Ranger is NOT shy about? Other dogs. He absolutely loves them. He’s playful, social, and has no resource-guarding issues with his canine friends. Having another confident, friendly dog in the home could be a huge help in bringing him out of his shell. Ranger has lots of puppy energy and needs an active, stimulating home. Regular walks, a yard or property, and plenty of things to keep his busy little brain occupied would be ideal. And because Ranger is still a puppy, he occasionally makes questionable life choices. Left alone or bored, he may decide that drip irrigation is a fascinating new chew toy, that children’s toys belong to him, or that his own toys need to be completely disassembled. He needs appropriate outlets for his destructive tendencies — think cardboard boxes stuffed with paper and treats, puzzle toys, enrichment activities, and plenty of things he is actually allowed to destroy. He is house trained for the most part and is doing well for his age. Ranger has done well with kids both young and older. He can get mouthy when he plays, though, so supervision and appropriate boundaries are especially important with smaller children. His owners loved him but unfortunately could no longer afford to care for him. Now this wonderful boy is looking for a home that can give him the exercise, enrichment, companionship, and confidence-building he needs. Ranger may be a little nervous at first, but underneath that shy exterior is a sweet, goofy, energetic puppy who just needs someone to believe in him. Give him a good dog friend, a little patience, plenty of adventures, and enough cardboard boxes to keep him out of trouble — and Ranger is going to make someone one heck of a companion.

  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.
