[quote=Anonymous]I ran into the same issue when I was looking for a dog last year. I also wanted an adult dog who was good with kids and could live in an apartment. I was searching for a unicorn. I couldn't find anything in shelters--pit mixes, German shepherds, cattle dogs, dogs with bite histories or unknown histories etc. I realized pretty quickly that I was going to have to buy a dog, but didn't want a puppy. I settled on a couple of breeds that would be a good match for me and emailed breeders within a reasonable driving distance. I asked if they had any adult dogs who were going to retire from the breeding program, and got two responses. The result of that search is snoring on the couch next to me, and will be heading to the beach with me later this morning. It's worth the search, but you might have to get creative and also be patient. My dog was pregnant so I had to wait for her to give birth and wean.[/quote]
