My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Burton is a 1-year-old Black Golden mix. Burton came to GRFR with coat full of mats and dreadlocks preventing him from walking or running well. Within 12 hours was at the groomers getting a “summer cut”! He looks and feels AWESOME and has so much more confidence- the tail is still slightly between his legs but it is wagging fast. Burton is very shy at first and stays very close to his foster mother. He is following his foster brothers in and out of the dog door and sleeps with them on the floor next to the bed. He is learning to play with his foster brothers, and shares their toys nicely. Burton is looking for a foster home that can offer him confidence, companionship, love, patience and good food to help with his damaged coat (dry- from old mats). Burton would gain confidence quicker in a home with an easygoing dog. He will need obedience and leash training - he stays right by you but right on your heels. Burton is looking to enjoy the Colorado outdoors!
