<p>So, I'm closing on my house next week and would like to get a dog. I can buy one from a breeder - but I've been thinking about getting an older dog and have been looking at Craigslist. I am paranoid about getting one there though - How do I know if the owner actually 'owns' the dog? (could have been stolen?)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is it appropriate to ask for some type of documentation or perhaps take it to a vet first to see if it's chipped?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'd like to get a larger dog - one that will run with me, but then also one that isn't as high strung as Reds - (really miss him though..
)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Advise?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thoughts?</p>
