My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nathaniel is a happy-go-lucky pup who thrives on playtime and food. His playful nature shines through as he expresses his energy with joyful wrestling matches, particularly with younger dogs who can keep up with his spirited antics. He understands the importance of respecting boundaries, demonstrating a smart and respectful distance with older dogs, which showcases his thoughtful personality.



 This charming little guy may be a bit timid when meeting new people, but don't let that fool you—he’s eager to make friends and will quickly warm up with a little encouragement, especially if there are treats involved!This inquisitive little guy is also curious about cats but maintains a respectful distance, showing his gentle demeanor. Nathaniel is about 95% potty trained, making him a great candidate for a loving home where he can continue to learn and grow. Though he has a happy energy that sometimes leads him to find a shoe or two to chew on if left unattended, Nathaniel is incredibly sweet and loves to be petted and cuddled. He can be a bit vocal with playful barks and brief whines when first kenneled, but it’s all part of his charming personality! Nathaniel is exceptionally food-driven and eager to learn, making him a quick study when it comes to commands. He’s already picked up “sit” with ease, all thanks to his love for treats. This little boy uses his voice to engage with you, sharing his excitement and joy as he plays intensely, filling the room with his happy spirit. As a teething pup, Nathaniel loves to have plenty of chew toys to keep him occupied and happy. If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion who will fill your days with joy and laughter, Nathaniel is the perfect match for you. Adopt this delightful little guy and get ready for a lifetime of love, cuddles, and fun adventures together!



This pup was rescued from a  shelter in New Mexico.



Meet and greets are by appointment only.  An approved application is required to schedule a meeting. Check out our events page for upcoming open adoption events!



We have no additional back story or update for this dog at this time.  When we do, it will be updated here.  This is all the information we have currently.




  • Approved Applicants may make the adoption fee payment by clicking donate above.  Partial adoption fees will not hold a dog.

  • Dogs adopted with our rescue come with FREE training from #GoodPup to help you build strong bonds from the start!

  • If upon meeting the dog of your choosing at your scheduled pickup time you find that you aren't a good match, your deposit will be fully refunded.

  • Adoption fees include vaccines up until time of adoption, microchip, spay/neuter and 1st 30 days of free Pet insurance.  We are not affiliated with Pet First pet insurance. (you have to sign up for the insurance or it will not go into effect).  Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets.

  • The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico.  While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances.  

  • More questions?  Read our FAQs here: https://4p4l.org/faqs/ 

  • Breed labels are a "best guess" by a shelter veterinarian and cannot be guaranteed. 

  • A new study has concluded that (in layman's terms), breed assumption is NOT indicative of behavior in mixed breed dogs.  Therefore, if a dog looks presumably to be a German Shepherd breed, one cannot assume the dog will have a high prey drive.  From the study: "Although many physical traits were associated with breeds, behavior was much more variable among individual dogs. In general, physical trait heritability was a greater predictor of breed but was not necessarily a predictor of breed ancestry in mutts. Among behavioral traits, biddability—how well dogs respond to human direction—was the most heritable by breed but varied significantly among individual dogs. Thus, dog breed is generally a poor predictor of individual behavior and should not be used to inform decisions relating to selection of a pet dog" - https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abk0639
