My story

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

Please go to our website at www.milehighlabmission.com to find out more about this pet and to submit an adoption application. 

Please DO NOT call or email us; all information about current dogs available, adoption donations, vetting, and this specific dog are on our website.


We are a non-profit organization and we are completely 100% volunteer run. 

We DO NOT have a shelter and only approved applicants can make appointments with our foster homes to meet the dogs we have.

Our volunteers will not discuss dogs we have available for adoption UNTIL you have an application on file and are approved to adopt.



General Notes | Want to adopt this dog?  Please do not email us.  Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP.  

Personality | Swiper has a sweet, goofy personality.  He has been very friendly with everyone he has met and loves attention.

Story | 

Other Dogs | Swiper enjoys playing with other dogs!

Cats 

Children | At a recent event, Swiper was taking his toy ball and dropping it at the feet of older kids hoping they would throw it for him! He does very well with kids 12+ and is very gentle when taking treats from younger kids when supervised.  He can get excited and jumps a bit so tiny kiddos need supervision when playing with him. 

Training | Swiper knows how to sit on command and is very eager to learn more.  He is very well behaved and responds nicely to attention.  

Leash 

Activity Level

Health Notes | Swiper is heartworm positive, but treatment is very successful and completely manageable with all the proper education. MHLRM will cover the expense of treatment at one of our approved veterinarians. Heartworm positive dogs go on to live happy, normal lives after treatment and rarely experience long-term side effects. Don't let this stop you from adopting Swiper.

Thank you! 

Adoption Donations |  Our adoption donations are $475 for dogs 8 weeks to 1 year, $425 for 1-6 years, $375 for dogs 7-10 years, and $250 for 11+ years of age. Purebred dogs regardless of age are $525. These minimum donations help to defer the costs of initial vet care, food, and supplies while in foster care that currently average over $700 per dog).

Meeting Dogs | Foster dogs may have meet & greets by appointment to approved applicants only.  To become an approved applicant - please complete the application process.

Please know | Available dogs are updated as soon as possible and we do our best to keep it up-to-date, but occasionally dogs shown may become unavailable without notice due to a pending adoption.

We encourage you to put in an application even if you don't see your new family member currently, as once you are approved, we can place you on the waiting list for first priority on the selection of the dogs we do bring in. That means you can often meet a dog upon transport arrival and adopt before they even make it to this page!

We can not guarantee that a dog you wish to adopt is available by the time your adoption application is submitted, processed, and approved.  Your application is good for 90 days from the time of approval for any dog as long as it is a good fit for your family and your lifestyle.
