I would like to adopt a dog from a shelter I found on the internet, it is about 6 miles from my home, problem is I have no way to get there, does anyone know if shelters make arrangements for this kind of situation?

They give a discription of each dogs personality on the website. The vet is about 1/2 to 3/4 mile from my home, I could walk there if needed, they adopt out dogs for cheaper but I would like one that is already up to date on shots and spayed, even if it costs more.

They might, but only for a handicapped adult. Maybe, you can get a friend to drive you there, and ask her if she will be a backup for vet visits on your new dog, and pet food...

Call them and find out - some might, some might not.
But you really should MEET the dog before you decide whether or not you want to ADOPT it. It may be incredibly cute in the pictures, but have a personality that you don't like.
They're not like stuffed animals - they're individuals.

Is your vet closer to your house than 6 miles? Cause if you can't get to the shelter to get the dog.. if you have an emergency.. will you have the same problem trying to get to the vet?!

Some do and some dont it depends on where you live the best you can do is call around? But definitely get a pet from the shekter they make the happiest pets because they are so grateful

Take a cab! No money for a cab? Then you won't be able to afford feeding this dog, grooming this dog, flea control for this dog, vet bills for this dog, etc, etc, etc.

i think it would be a good idea to meet the pet first. you could ask the shelter to see if they could arrange something, or you could ask someone else.
