elp of his new dog friend Phoebe, and love and guidance from his new foster mom, he is adjusting well to his new foster home. He loves going on walks, especially the long ones and does well on his leash. He is getting used to car rides and is well behaved in the car. He did pick up a bad habit from his friend Phoebe and barks when she starts barking at other dogs and their people. However, when we walked through the crowds and pirates at Ballast Point, they were very well behaved and enjoyed getting pets and attention from everyone. Maybe the more people the better! Little Ricky lives with lots of cats and kittens and sometimes likes to chase after them; not to hurt them, he just wants to play. Mostly they just hang out together. He and Phoebe love to run and play in the yard, so he would like a big yard at his new home. He is mostly house trained, with just a few accidents while he was getting used to his new home. Finally, he is up to date on vaccines and heart worm negative. Little Ricky will be at our adoption events Pet Supermarket in Britton Plaza, South Tampa every other Saturday from 10 to 3 so come out and meet him. Check our website for specific dates As a non-profit, we charge a nominal fee for all adoptions. In exchange for your adoption fee, all animals: • Are spayed and neutered • Are fully vaccinated based on age/weight at the time of adoption • Have received a medical exam • Are micro chipped • All dogs are tested for heart worms • All cats are tested at the time of entry for FIV and FeLV and will be specified if negative or positive in the medical as well as the description.

  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.
