I’ve been looking to adopt a dog for months, with no luck.

Because I live in a small apartment I’m looking for a beagle mix, or something about the same size. I’m flexible about age, although ideally I’d like a dog on the younger size.

All the shelters I’ve visited (throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan, including BARC, Humane Society, Bideawee, Animal Care & Control, ASPCA, Petco, various adoption vans, etc.) are filled with dogs that are either too large for my apartment or have special needs that I’m not equipped to deal with.

Any advice or leads? Many of you must have dogs. How’d you find them?
