Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Denver is a smart, calm and well adjusted young man that is gentle and very loving. He is generally in couch potato mode, but once in a while will run around the yard playing the chase game with his foster siblings. Generally this activity occurs when most of the pack is indoors. He lives with 8 other dogs, but hasn’t yet started to enjoy interacting with them. He would probably do well in a single dog household where he could get all the attention. He does love to be near people. Although he usually minds his own business, he will take the time to put the brakes on the inappropriate actions of the young pup with very few manners that shares his home. He will growl and try to show the young impertinent fellow how good dogs act, but never hurts or bites the little guy in the process. Denver does not have an aggressive bone in his body, and even when food is present, he remains calm and looks for his bowl or treat. When he went to the vet’s office for his checkup and vaccinations, nothing fazed him and the tech was able to cut his nails without assistance.
Denver is usually quiet, but will join in when the dogs inform us that someone is passing the house. On a rare occasion he will start to bark before the others. He doesn’t dig in the garden and doesn’t chew on inappropriate items. He likes to sleep in a doggie bed in the master bedroom, but is just as comfortable on the bed in the crate in the family room. He has been making good headway in the house training department, is crate trained, walks well on a leash, and will sometimes come when called. Denver is relatively new to rescue so we gave him a small chance to settle in, and will now begin to work on dog door training as well as the basic commands of sit, down and come. He is a sweetie and should be easy to train since he does seem to want to please us (and of course there are the treats).
Denver is a beautiful boy, and his current pictures do not do him justice. He has a taupe colored coat and beautiful eyes. The iris of his eye is a light caramel color near the outer edge that darkens closer to the center. For this reason, it always looks as if his eyes are dilated.
If you are looking for a calm new companion to spend your days & nights with, please give Denver some consideration. He would be very happy to have a loving home including new friends to spend time with, and a safe haven to call his own. He needs a place to flop down comfortably confidently and safely. Denver is a very good dog and deserves someone to protect and care for him to the end of time.
Adoptive Status: Neutered, UTD on shots, heartworm negative and micro-chipped.
