Here's what the humans have to say about me:
What a scary world it is out there when you're homeless and in a high-kill shelter...especially when you just weigh 12 lbs and are only about 1 - 1.5 years old. Lawson, an adorable Poodle/Westie mix found himself in this situation through no fault of his own. His plight was the result of irresponsibility and neglect...such a sad statement for the poor care that a was bestowed on this harmless dog. Lawson was the luckiest guy around that day...he was discovered and rescued by Farfel's rescuers who felt compassion for this sweet guy. He was a matted mess on the outside.. but pure and grateful devotion on the inside! Lawson's rescuer brought him home and dedicated herself to caring for him...and reassuring his abandoned psyche that he was safe. This guy deserved a ticket to Colorado and a committed, loving family. He would so love walks down mountain trails...he loves being outside and is capable of being a companion for hikes. Lawson is definitely searching for a human friend that he can devote his heart to....and that person will be the recipient of 100% of what this little dog has to offer. After initial bonding, Lawson's a steadfast companion that takes his relationships seriously. We're searching for an adult home for Lawson...a retired couple or individual who enjoy spending lots of time with a fuzzy guy would be great! It's not that Lawson dislikes kids..we just feel he'd be more secure in the calmer reliability of an adult home. He also gets along with other dogs and would enjoy the relationship of smaller, gentle canines. He would blossom with the attention and caring touch of a dedicated family. In this environment, Lawson will glow with joy at his incredible luck. He also loves to please...and when he's successful, he struts his stuff with high self-esteem. Lawson is a non-shedding pup (maybe a hair or 2) and will therefore require periodic grooming and great nutrition to keep his awesome, cottony coat healthy and matt-free. Lawson will be completely vetted, neutered, vaccinated and temperament tested to fulfill our commitment to adopting out healthy and well-adjusted dogs.
Lawson is arriving on transport in Denver. Applications are currently being accepted for this exceptional and very sweet companion.
