Meet Poppy! Poppy is a 9 year old female purebred Aussie - She along with 6 others came from a breeder who recently shut down. While she is 9 years old she is a healthy girl that is still has a good spring in her step! **She is dog friendly but she does best with other dogs that give her space and time to get used to them. Once she comes out of her shell she starts to get more playful though she is still figuring out how to play. **While she is still very shy, she still does well with people and comes out of her shell after being given some time to decompress and get used to new people and spaces. When she gets excited she does the classic Aussie butt wiggles that are so cute! **She is house trained and crate trained. She loves her crate so much, it is her safe place **She prefers to go for walks with another dog otherwise she is still working through leash guidance. Another dog in the home would be great for her to help her come out of her shell more Comes with 2 free dog training sessions and fully vetted

Hero is the hero we all need! Hero has come such a long way since entering his foster home.  He was very scared and unsure at first, but with some encouragement he has gained a lot of confidence. He is unsure with new people but warms up pretty well and is sure to be your velcro dog once he trusts you. He is a big lover like a teddy bear, he loves to cuddle.  Hero does great walking on a leash and loves to learn new things. He knows how to sit, stay and some oter basic commands, he is a smart boy! Hero is potty trained and crate trained! I have 2 small dogs of my own and he has gotten along with them well, he likes to tease them to get them to play with him and they chase eachother around. He loves to play with toys, tug-o-war is his favorite. He sleeps in his kennel at night like a little angel. Hero is the best boy!   ##1981545##

Story
Hi there! My name is Kiss-Kiss, and I’m the sweetest, calmest little pup in my litter. I’m all black with a tiny, adorable white patch on my chest that makes me extra special. While my sisters are busy bouncing around, I’m more likely to be found cuddled up with my foster family or just soaking up the love. I’ve even earned a special spot on the couch—my foster mom says I’m too cute and cuddly to resist!I’m a gentle soul and the most people-loving pup of my sisters. I’d probably do wonderfully in a family with kids because of my calm and affectionate demeanor. I also love other dogs, but I can be a little shy when meeting new friends. Once I meet them face-to-face and realize I’m safe, I warm up quickly and love to play. With plenty of socialization while I’m young, I’ll grow into a confident, well-rounded dog.Like my sisters, I’m working hard on my training! I’m great at sleeping through the night in my crate, and I’m making awesome progress with potty training. I’ve even started learning commands like “sit,” and I’d love to continue training with my forever family.I’d be happiest in a home with a yard where I can stretch my legs and play. While I enjoy a good romp, I’m a bit more relaxed than my sisters, so I’m equally happy curling up with my people for a quiet moment. My foster mom thinks I’ll grow to be a medium-to-large-sized dog (at least 55 lbs), so I’ll need a family ready to help me grow into my big, loving paws.If you’re looking for a gentle, cuddly, and affectionate pup to bring into your family, I think we’d be the perfect match! I can’t wait to meet you and become your best friend for life. ##2245923##

Keeper is sweet, funny, friendly, and extremely smart. He loves cuddling, playing, being with other dogs and humans. He is getting better at separation and has adjusted well to crate time! He is truly impossible to not love and makes you laugh regularly.  You can find Keeper sitting at your feet, snuggling in your lap, or giving you a kiss. He LOVES being loved and looks to you as his "person". He loves wrestling, playing with toys, training with treats, or simply sleeping in your arms. He loves music and being rocked like a baby! Keeper is already close to potty trained and goes potty right away when getting outside. He plays and sleeps hard, but definitely will need exercise, so should go to an active, loving family! Since Keeper is so young, he's new to leashes. However, he is super smart and will absolutely catch on in no time! ##2245927##

Story
Monica is a highly intelligent, gentle, quiet, quick to learn, dog.  She loves being near her people, whether that be curled up in a dog bed watching TV with us, lying on the floor near the kitchen while dinner is cooked, or sitting outside in the sunshine watching the squirrels and birds while her foster mom drinks her coffee. Monica loves being in nature, smelling the air and enjoying the sunshine.  She walks very well on a leash and loves stopping to smell all the great smells.  She enjoys chin scratches, ear rubs, and relaxing together.  Monica is extremely responsive, wanting to please, and changes her behavior when requested with a simple gentle verbal command.  She loves to snuggle in blankets with her favorite stuffed toys.  When we venture out to pet stores or on walks, she gets along with everyone that she meets, dog and human alike.  She is doing great with learning that cats can be friends, and would likely do well in a home with cats, with some gentle training and slow introduction.  Monica came to her foster’s home with extreme anxiety but has been making HUGE progress toward feeling safe and doing well in her crate.  She now sleeps all night in her crate with no problems, and has a tail wag and a kiss for her foster mom in the mornings. Monica really enjoys being with “her” people, and would love to be in a home with a stay-at-home parent or someone who works from home.  She has also done great accompanying her foster family on adventures such as looking for a Christmas tree or going shopping.  Note: Monica is still learning to be safe in the world again, after being in a shelter with her puppies.  She may have anxiety around separation and being in her cage / crate as she transitions to her forever family, so adopters that will be understanding and supportive are essential.  (Her foster mom has learned ways that soothe her and help ease her anxiety and would love to share those with her forever family.)  For more updates and photos of Monica, please see her Instagram at Furry.FosterFriends ##2245922##

Story
Monkey is a 20 lbs, 1 year old guy. While he looks like a bearded collie, he is actually an Australian Shepherd/Cairn Terrier mix. Monkey likes to monkey around. He doesn’t climb trees though, nope that’s not his style. Monkey climbs fences! He’s a master of it! Although, he tends to do it just to get where his person is. Monkey bonds very hard to his human and would very much appreciate a person looking to bond with him. He’s dog and cat friendly, but little humans and strangers are scary for him. Monkey is working on his leash skills but for now a securely fenced in yard is required because leash cv walks aren’t his jam. At 1 year old, Monkey hasn’t seen much of the world yet. He was raised in the same home as his canine mom, dad, and siblings since birth and is just learning about life outside of his home now that he’s in foster care. Monkey is looking for a patient, affectionate, human that’s home often to spend time with him. Monkey is in foster in Fort Lupton, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/monkey.

Story
Miss Kahlua is ready to get the party started! This high energy, compact, Aussie/Spaniel mix comes in at a whopping 35 lbs at only around 2-3 years old. She knows nothing of the concept of personal space, BUT she has a giant brain and is eager to learn and please her peeps. Kahlua LOVES her humans and is a Velcro dog. She’s affectionate and snuggly. Kahlua will do well in an active, adventurous home. She’s dog friendly after a good introduction, however she’s perfectly content being an only dog, as well. Kahlua seems house trained at her foster home and sleeps quietly in her crate at night. She’s NOT a fan of staying in her crate during the day while her foster parents work and she will verbally complain about that a bit, so she’s best suited in a home without shared walls. A large yard for games of fetch is more her jam. Kahlua is being fostered in Greeley, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/kahlua/.
