You want to adopt, now what?

Adopt a Dog from your local shelter or rescue

1. Visit the shelter during adoption hours: Many shelters have set times when they allow people to visit and meet the dogs. This is a great opportunity to interact with the dogs and see which one you might want to adopt.
2. Volunteer at the shelter: By volunteering at the shelter, you can spend time with the dogs and get to know them better. This will also give you the opportunity to learn about their personalities and behaviour.
3. Attend adoption events: Many shelters host adoption events at various locations such as pet stores or community events. This is a great opportunity to meet several dogs at once and find the perfect one for you.
4. Check the shelter’s website or social media pages: Many shelters post pictures and information about their dogs on their website or social media pages. This can help you get a better idea of which dogs you might be interested in meeting.

Remember

Remember, adopting a dog is a big responsibility and should not be taken lightly. Make sure you are prepared for the commitment of owning a pet before making the decision to adopt.
