Story
Pugsley is just about 2 years old and truly has a heart full of love. He’s an energetic little guy, full of life and curiosity, and still has that playful puppy spirit. We realize he needs more individual attention and guidance, which is tough for us as a busy family. It makes us sad to think that we’re not home enough to give him the attention he deserves. Pugsley thrives best in a minimalist environment, as he tends to get into things when left unsupervised. With five kids in the house, we're mindful that his playful nature has led to a few chewed-up items here and there. We genuinely want what’s best for him and hope to find a solution that allows him to flourish. Also if he is by the front door when it’s opened he will escape!!!!

Story
We acquired this little guy randomly for a. Family who didn’t want to dump in the trash at Walmart. He is less than a year old and has a plan at Banfield. He is super sweet, super energetic and fun dog. He loves other dogs but is scared at first same with people. Tony has been in training and did super well in puppy class but we didn’t get a chance to move on to the next. He is a funny little dude and is need of a playful, good home. He did just get diagnosed with fear and anxiety at the vet so they recommended trazodone before visits. He really needs a person or family that will help and play with him like walks, hiking, etc! He has been camping and did wonderfully.

Or, how about these Pugs in cities near Denver, Colorado

These Pugs are available for adoption close to Denver, Colorado.

Story
Peanut is a sweet, friendly, energetic girl who weighs a little over 17 lbs. She has a super cute under-bit that she shows off sometimes. She loves cuddling on the couch, playing with her foster brothers, running around in the backyard, and watching the world go by out the front window. Peanut loves attention, giving kisses, and getting good pets and scratches behind her ears. She will lay her head on you when sleepy and enjoys being close to you. She has done great when left at home without humans and hasn’t cried, whined, or destroyed anything. Peanut doesn’t have a loud bark, but she does let me know when someone is walking by the front of the house or having to say hi to a dog in another backyard. Her favorite toy is a little squeaky ball and antler chews. On nice days, she loves to sit on my lap on the back porch, listening to the neighborhood sounds and watching the squirrels and birds. She is fully potty-trained and goes in and out of the doggy door. She is crate-trained and sleeps well through the night as long as she is close to the bed. Whether cuddling with you on the couch, going on a car ride, or sitting on your lap, Peanut is ready to bring endless joy and love to her forever family. ##2270390##

Story
Hello, I'm Mike and I really enjoy playing with other dogs and enjoy being around people as long as they know a few guidelines. I absolutely LOVE to snuggle with people.  I really like if you'll play ball with me or take walks together and while I'm thinking about it, other kinds of toys are a lot of fun too.  I'm great at watching movies because it lets me perfect my couch potato skills.   While I like to cuddle and get into the personal space of my people, I don't necessarily like to have my space invaded.  I enjoy head pets and will let you know when I am overwhelmed. I am very vocal.  I do have some rules and I need structure from my humans so that I don't take advantage and know my boundaries.   I would do best in a home with a patient person who is willing to take things slowly with me and enforce good boundaries for me.  It's mostly small things that help give me structure like reminding me to walk through doorways last and sit for food and treats.  Because I am a work in progress, I would not do well with children. I am kennel and potty trained, and good with other pets.  I won't eat your favorite shoes or chew on the furniture, And, do I even need to mention how cute I am?  Just look at my overbite, I know, it's hard to resist. Are you interested in meeting me and seeing if I could be your good buddy?  Please click on my link for more information and let my friends at Demi's know when we can play ball. All dogs are spayed/neutered, mircochipped, heartworm tested (if over 6 months old) and up to date on vaccinations (combo shot, bordetella, rabies(if age appropriate) ) ##1677280##

Story
Adoption Fee: $475 When available, all animals are fixed, up to date on vaccines (may need boosters), and microchipped! From the foster: Meet “Tobin Puglsey” your new best friend! Tobin can’t wait to meet his forever family and share his love! He is the complete package—full of fun puppy energy but without all the teething and biting! He’s always ready for playtime, followed by a snuggle and a nap…then he’s up and ready to do it all over again! This sweet boy is friendly, energetic, and absolutely loves toys—especially plush ones and rubber balls. He’s been fostered with a high-energy cattle dog and has no trouble keeping up! After a good play session, his favorite place to be is snuggled up in your lap. Tobin has been great at sleeping through the night in his kennel. While he usually lets out a few whines at first because he misses his people and all the action, he settles down pretty quick. He’s also made great strides with potty training—he knows to go when he’s outside but is also able to use puppy pads when needed! Tobin is eager to learn and to please! He already has pretty good recall with his name and would thrive with a family ready to continue his training. I also believe he would do really well with another active playmate to help keep him entertained. Daily exercise and enrichment activities will continue to help him burn off his extra puppy energy. www.coloradopuppy.org/how-to-adopt

Story
Hi. My name is Poppy, and I am a Pug/Chihuahua mix.  I am 14 months old, weigh about nine pounds and everyone says I am cute as a button and full of personality. I love to play, take walks, ride in the car, and snuggle. I have a lot of foster mutt siblings at my foster home. I like most of them, but one is really big. Foster mama says he weighs thirty pounds! She tells me he is very friendly, but I am not so sure of that, so I have to show him who’s boss. Foster mama says I can be protective of my favorite human around the other resident mutts. She says it's understandable because I didn't have the easiest past and so I want to make sure I keep tabs on the nice humans.  My best fit forever family or human would be a patient and loving adult or adults, maybe with another dog my size.  I like treats, lots of cuddles, and sleeping curled up with my human. I also like to go wherever my human is going. Sometimes I dash out the door in excitement, but I come back when mama calls. My new family will have to understand that I am just a little thing. The world can be scary, and I need to show how brave and fierce I am. (Mama says that is the Chihuahua in me.) If you're interested in adopting Poppy, please fill out an adoption application here: https://underdogsrescue.org/adopt-form/ Underdogs is a small volunteer-based animal rescue and we unfortunately do not have the resources to respond to phone and email inquires about our adoptable animals at this time. If you're interested in learning more or setting up a meeting with one of our animals, please complete an adoption application first. It may take up to two weeks for application review and one of our coordinators will reach out to you as soon as we are through the intitial review process. We appreciate your patience and understanding! Thank you! ##1943487##

Hi there, I`m Sweet Potato Fry. You know, I ended up here in the most hilarious way. I was chasing a squirrel, and boy, was it fast! I was so engrossed in the chase that I didn`t notice I`d run straight into the shelter! Talk about a `ruff` day, right? I`m a curious chap, always sniffing out adventures. My loyalty is unmatched, and I`ve got a sweet side that could melt even the coldest of hearts. Plus, my snorting will keep you giggling all day long. Adopt me, and let`s make each other`s lives a comedy show!What I Need In a Home:* Older children recommended*I am a restricted breed in Denver.

Story
Meet Clara Cupcake, a delightful 4-year-old English Bulldog with a sweet disposition and a heart of gold. Clara Cupcake was rescued on the very day she was scheduled to be euthanized, having been used for breeding and then abandoned at a shelter. Clara Cupcake is a lovable couch potato who enjoys lounging around and relaxing in the comfort of her home. She gets along well with both other dogs and cats, making her a great addition to a multi-pet household. However, Clara Cupcake can be protective of her space and family, so she needs slow and gentle introductions to new people within her home. She might get a bit nippy when meeting new faces indoors, but she’s perfectly fine meeting people outside the house. With her calming presence and affectionate nature, Clara Cupcake is looking for a loving home where she can enjoy a comfortable, laid-back lifestyle and receive the care and patience she deserves. If you’re ready to give this sweet girl the cozy home she’s been waiting for, Clara Cupcake will be a devoted and loving companion.

Story
Meet Daisy, a charming 8-year-old English Bulldog with a heart full of love and a friendly spirit. Daisy is a social butterfly who gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats and is great with everyone she meets. Her affectionate nature shines through in her love for snuggling and being close to her human friends. Daisy is currently recovering from TPLO surgery on her right knee and will soon undergo a second TPLO surgery and hip surgery on her left side. Despite her past cruciate tears and hip dysplasia, her prognosis after recovery is very promising, and she’s showing her resilient spirit every day. Due to poultry allergies, Daisy is on a beef-only diet, but aside from that, she has no other medical concerns. She’s an intelligent and quick learner, making her a joy to train and interact with. Daisy’s loving and gentle demeanor makes her a perfect companion for anyone looking to share their home with a sweet and resilient dog. If you’re ready to offer a warm, caring environment, Daisy will fill your life with affection and loyalty.
