Story
Kiwi is very much a companion animal. He wants to be near his person and will sit at your feet or on your lap for hours. He is very eager to please. Kiwi had parvo very badly as a young puppy so he was having difficulty with knowing when he has to go to the bathroom. He still has a disconnect between knowing that he has to go and alerting you. When he has to go he has difficulty holding it. It's imperative that you're willing to let him consistently. He is getting better as he ages so perhaps training and time will alleviate the issue. He's very sweet and loving which makes it worth the effort. He will need a fenced yard. His adoption fee of $375 includes neuter, microchipped and vaccinations We are located in the Colorado Springs area. All adoptions require a home visit. Please apply at www.whimperstowags.org under 'Forms'. Thank you!February 10, 2025, 2:50 pm

Story
Rhino is a very lovable boy, full of energy and LOVES to play fetch with squeaky toys. He is very smart, yet still has some issues to work on. He can be in a home with other dogs, but preferably female dogs. He can be around other male dogs, but is slightly aggressive at first until he gets to know them. We are choosing to re-home him as he was supposed to be a playmate for our other dog and unfortunately his presence has made her revert back to some old ways.

Story
####HIGHLIGHTS-Needs to be the only dog in the home-Single person home-Needs 4’ fenced-in yard-Needs routine and an experienced adopter-Particular grooming/veterinary needsMeet Bitsy, a loving, intelligent, and spirited dog with a unique personality and special requirements. Bitsy is a 2.5 year old Shih Tzu mix and weighs 13lbs.Bitsy thrives in a one-on-one environment and is best suited for a solo-human household where she can bond deeply with her primary caregiver. She is fiercely loyal and protective of the people she connects with, especially those she considers her `person.`. Bitsy is best suited to a home where she is the only pet and does not have to compete for attention. She should be placed in a home with someone who understands her need for space, respect, and routine. Bitsy thrives in environments where she is the center of attention and can form a deep bond with her human.Bitsy enjoys engaging in playful activities like zooming around the yard and playing with toys, making her an excellent companion for active, engaged playtime. She does enjoy the attention from multiple people but only likes the attention from one person at a time.Bitsy prefers a gentle, one-handed pickup, and she’s most comfortable when she initiates the interaction, but dislikes being cornered or approached too quickly and can become defensive if she feels threatened. Her discomfort with handling is something that can be worked through with patience, consistency, and understanding.Bitsy walks on leash with pride but is learning to be more confident around new environments or other dogs, she struggles with being in close quarters with them, especially in a group setting. However, she is social and open to interact with people she knows, often greeting them enthusiastically by pawing at the front of her kennel.Bitsy is highly intelligent and will seek out opportunities to escape when new people are around, so she requires a home with a strong, consistent handler who can provide structure and clear boundaries. While she has made significant progress with training at the rescue (muzzle & crate training), especially during activities like going outside and entering the kennel, she will still need ongoing training to help her feel more comfortable in these situations.Bitsy is looking for a loving, patient home where she can feel safe, secure, and cherished for who she is. She’ll reward a caring and u

Story
Meet Bernie. This sweet boy recently lost his owner and had major dental surgery. Despite all of that, he is a happy little guy and very well behaved. He gets along well with his foster dog and cat friends but especially likes the company of his foster human. He hopes that you will go for walks with him, play with him (he loves his ball toys especially!), watch TV while he keeps you company, and cuddle. He doesn’t have many teeth left but is a good eater! He also knows a few tricks so he hopes that you can help him learn some more. Bernie loves to sleep in his bed, but if you prefer a snuggler while you sleep, he is all in! He is a good boy and sleeps through the whole night. He is also potty trained and doesn’t have one accident while his foster mom is gone at work all day! Bernie would love to meet you, so check out his profile and submit your application soon because this little cutie is a must have! His $200 adoption donation includes DHPP, Rabies, microchip, leash and collar, recent dental and vet exam, heartworm test, toys, and food to get him started in your home.
