Story

For more information about this Dane, please visit our website at https://rmgreatdane.org. Adoption Applications link can be found on the home page. Hi – they call me Bubas. I spent 4 months in a shelter. They named me Bubas. I checked out of the vet with a clean bill of health, but they recommended some meds for fear and anxiety. You see, I was found wandering the streets, so I have a very mysterious background – my little secret. But I can tell you this: I am scared of a lot of things, especially men and strangers. Strange Men are the Worst. I have latched on to Foster Mom and will not leave her side – I don’t growl at Foster Dad anymore, so that’s a bit of progress. I enjoy playing with other dogs and my toys. I’m good with middle aged to older kids, but the little ones have as much energy as I do and they make me a bit nervous. Besides, I’m big enough to knock them down when I’m just trying to play with them. I am slowly learning manners and commands and getting better with time. I’m learning to walk on a harness and leash – regular collars make me alligator roll to get out of them. I am house trained and crate trained. Here is my idea of the perfect home: Great Dane Experience, female only household, my people to be home more than not, lots of patience and love, another big dog to pal around with and whom I can learn from, interest in helping me to learn how to bring out the Awesomeness that is inside of me, and some more love. Please fill out an application and ask for me.November 6, 2024, 3:48 pm

She has reached out to Rocky Mountain Great Dane Rescue to find a foster or foster-to-adopt home for sweet Loki. Loki has started house training and is staying indoors while he recovers from his neuter. He a smart and learning new commands. So far Loki has picked up on “sit” lay”. Pretty impressive in such a short amount of time! He is thriving with the attention. Loki is described as playful, friendly, a clown and still has happy puppy in him. He has good, moderate energy. Prior to his surrender, he lived in a home with 4 children where it was reported he got along well with the kiddos. The ideal home for Loki: A Giant Breed experienced home to show Loki what the Great Dane good life looks like! Someone who will be patient and continue to work on all aspects of training, including walking on a leash and other day to day “Daning” indoors. Loki is a fast learner and has a wonderful temperament. We believe in the right home with lots of love, this big boy will thrive!

Copper

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 1 yr 8 mos

Denver, CO

Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Copper is a wirehaired mixed breed (maybe Doodle, we aren't sure) pup with striking golden eyes. At about a year and a half, he arrived to rescue extremely undersocialized and fearful. With humans, this presented as frequent putting on the brakes and "pancaking." In his foster home, he quickly became more comfortable with the humans there and established routines and relationships of trust, but didn't progress much with other people. Copper was also very afraid of encounters with other dogs, and would lunge, growling, barking and generally work himself into a panic. We moved Copper into foster with a trainer and a well-balanced pack to help him learn how to "dog." With lots of exercise, structure, and opportunities for socialization and training, in less than a month he has been pushed out of his comfort zone and is showing increased confidence and even realized he loves playing with other dogs! Copper needs a calm, confident dog companion in his new home, and humans who are committed to helping him continue to explore the world and build confidence through patience, positive reinforcement, and routine. Copper is neutered, fully vaccinated, treated for parasites, heartworm tested negative, and microchipped with registration. His adoption fee is $350.

Paris

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Bichon Frise

Female, 4 yrs 11 mos

Denver, CO

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Paris is a 4 year old cavalier king charles/bichon mix. This makes her relatively non shedding, very petite, and while she is learning that life outside of a mill is filled with soft blankets and gentle people, she's still a bit skittish after a beginning that started in such an unpleasant place.Paris loves her kennel, likes other dogs, probably would do best with kids over 10, and is working on house training. Paris is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea and tick treated, dewormed, heartworm tested negative and on heartworm prevention. She was given a sanitary shave, but we believe once her hair grows out a bit she will be much cuter. Paris is $350 to adopt. If you are interested in adopting an animal please complete our online application at https://bit.ly/LIBRAdoptionApp. Applications must be submitted through the Life is Better website in order for us to consider your request. We do not do out of state adoptions.
