[quote=Anonymous]We just went through the process and had good experiences with Homeward Trails and FFX Co Human Society.  We also liked the Alexandria Animal Welfare League's shelter but didn't find a good match when we went there.  I think what helped is that we let them suggest dogs for us after we completed the paperwork and had the home visits.  Frankly, I didn't expect to get the dogs we first showed interest in.  I figured someone else in the pipeline would get them.  We had some great conversations with the representatives, told them the qualities we were looking for in  dog and also had them interact with our kids (10, 9 and 6) so they would have a good idea what the kids were like.  Two of my kids are really enthusiastic, one is more unsure and hesitant.  We had to wait a while but they found us the perfect dog!

FWIW - we had a horrible experience with the Montgomery Co Human Society.  They were unfriendly, unhelpful and didn't seem interested in getting their dogs adopted.[/quote]
