How do you need to look like that somebody gives you a home?

The purpose of this retrospective study was to determinate physical characteristics of sheltered dogs that may influence their adoption. In average, the dogs were 9 months old and they were adopted after 12 months. Potential owners had shown preference for younger and smaller dogs with light hair and ex-strays. Dogs’ sex was not important for adoption, and pure breed dogs were not adopted faster than cross breed dogs. These findings should be guidance for shelter staff to promote adoption of less popular kind of dogs.
