Are you seeking sources of free puppies? Here are just a few ideas to help you find a new furry friend. Folks often seek out free puppies because their finances do not allow shopping for a dog at a pet store. Prices for pure breeds can run into the hundreds of dollars.
Be careful when considering a mixed breed puppy. Try to determine enough about the dog to estimate its size when full grown. There is nothing like adopting a cute little puppy that turns to weigh 90 pounds. Start off by deciding what size animal you would like. Do you really want a big dog? Or is a little lap dog more your style?
A good place to begin your search for free puppies is through family and friends. If this turns up a good lead you may have the advantage of knowing more about the dog and it’s owner.
Call around to some of your local veterinarians businesses and inquire if anyone knows of available dogs. Often a vet will know of a litter of puppies to be given away. Veterinarians will often know someone who has rescued an unwanted dog.
There are many things that will cause a person to offer a free puppy. Pets are sometimes not allowed in multifamily dwellings. If the family dog has just had a litter of pups the owner may not have enough possibilities for finding all of them homes.
Even looking in newspaper ads can turn up some good possibilities for free puppies.
Craigslist at www.craigslist.org can sometimes be a place to find free puppies. This website is organized by geographical location making it easy to find someone near you. For the most part these Craigslist ads are for selling dogs but occasionally you will find someone giving an animal away. Craigslist is a very high traffic website so it should be helpful. Another possibility is to run an ad on Craigslist yourself and ask to meet anyone with free puppies. If you run an ad you can specify a certain breed or size animal and you may just find what you are looking for.
Using the Internet search engines and typing in free puppies can often yield some good leads. There are pet finder websites on the Internet who may be helpful. Adopting an unwanted animal can be a very rewarding experience gives a lot of self-satisfaction in knowing you may have saved an animal’s life.
Just ask a few questions of the owner and examine the dog carefully to make sure it was not an abused animal. You are sure to be able to find a new friend.
