I was on the internet looking for a particular breed of dog as a companion both to me and to the family Boxer. I was familiar with PetFinder, so I started there. In searching the dogs in my state, I came across a little homeless dog who looked so sweet and so cute, I read about her, and she seemed likely to be a good fit in our family. She wasn't the breed I was looking for, but I did research on her breed, and there was no problem. I immediately put in my bid for adoption on this little rat terrier. There was a happy ending for all of us...Pippi came home. She's a delightful dog who loves her family and never fails to make me laugh.
