Corazon

Texas Heeler German Shepherd Dog

Female, Puppy

Commerce City, CO

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,

Story

Corazon was surrendered to us with her two other siblings (Jonah and Negra) when their original owners were evicted. They do require training since they don't yet know their names and are 3 months. The dad said they are mixed with Texas heeler and German Shepard. Corazon is the smallest yet, has the most energy out of all the siblings: She loves to play chase and playing with her siblings. All three siblings are somewhat afraid of the world, but their curiosity is what drives them towards new experiences. They used to be afraid of coming inside but now prefer it when if someone will be with them. They are grazers and have not shown signs of being food or toy aggressive. She loves long lasting chews such as, pig skin and dried chicken tenderloin. They do not have vaccines and not spayed. She is very quick to learn especially when it was recall and sit but it has been difficult to teach their name.

Story

Ryder is a big boy that loves to play fetch and his chest rubbed. He can be anxious at times if he doesn't exert enough energy or get to play during the day. Great with strangers and so far all pets. He gets decently jealous when giving other dogs attention and will squeeze his way in to be pet. He about 3.5 - 4 years old (not 100% sure as we rescued him). He is a healthy with occasional ear irritation from allergies. He is not super concerned with what is around him when getting where he needs do go but can squeeze through tight spaces.

Story

Zoe was brought home by my daughter in 2021. I believe she is a lab mix. She is house trained and well behaved. She does have a tendency to be very vocal when outside. Zoe enjoys walks and interactive time. There have been some recent changes to our income and schedules, so we are looking for someone that can provide her with the attention she deserves.

Northglenn, CO

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Lola is a very special and happy one eyed pug! She loves to hike, play, and everything you could do with a pug. She does have a UTI that has unfortunately been with her since she was a puppy. She needs a home with a backyard to enable her to pee when she needs to about every three hours. She is house trained and will rarely have an accident in the house as long as you have a backyard to take her out. She is great with kids, and other dogs as well! She truly will become your best friend. We have had Lola since she was a little puppy and she is 7 years old. We need to find her a comfy home where she will get lots of love and attention. We do not have a backyard and we can not afford any more accidents with a new born in the house. Please apply if you would love to enjoy such a loving and caring dog! She truly is amazing and it is heartbreaking to have to let her go. We are picky so if you do not have a backyard, you will be out of question for rehoming her.

Winnie

Australian Cattle Dog Mutt

Female, Adult

Northglenn, CO

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Winnie is a sweet, loving dog. She considers herself a lap dog and loves anyone who will give her pets and snuggles. Winnie gets along well with male dogs but should not be in a house with another female dog. She loves walks and would need a yard to run around in. We adopted her 2 years ago from the dumb friends league and have loved having her. She is about 5 years old and in good health. We are only re-homing her because we have a 1 year old, and Winnie does not like how he plays with her and can get a little snippy. Adults that know how to handle and care for dogs gently will have no issue with her though. If you love her, she will give you love 10 times over. She is crate trained as well.

Penny

Labrador Retriever Mutt

Female, Young

Northglenn, CO

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Penny was brought into the animal hospital I work at in the middle of the night after being found unresponsive at the bottom of a flight of stairs. She was so emaciated she was unable to stand for more than a minute. She also had growth and development issues from neglect. My partner and I paid for her medical treatment and today she has no health issues. Most of Penny's abuse came from the male in her previous home and she is still pretty fearful but with time will warm up. Penny lives currently in a house with two cats that she loves. She is very young, loves going to the dog park and fetch is her favorite!
