***BONDED PAIR CANNOT SEPARATE, please read full bio*** Gizmo is an adorable, 12 year old mostly blind Terrier mix who can see shapes and tell light from dark. He loves outdoor exploring rain or shine and in a few weeks will know his way around the house! He adores his sister Bonnie and her presence calms him and visa versa. NO doggy doors for this pair due to his eyes. Gizmo has learned an adorable trick for a "snack" and when he needs hugs, you'll love it! When you tell him "I love you, kisses" he melts and wants to be held. He loves to snuggy in his bed or in the blankys at night. Gizmo will fall off a bed or wander into tables, get tangled in cords etc so cannot sleep uncrated. Gizmo is a daily reminder of what we take for granted but he is active and loves life if you allow him to! He loves sitting beside you on a bed or couch as does his Sister. He had a full dental done, a thigh tumor and an eye mass removed. Like his sister he adores ice cream, anything cheese and Little Jacs treats! Gizmo is pad trained once he learns where the large pads are but he prefers going outside. Note: Gizmo is treated with Optimmune eye gel 2x daily, eye drops and a gel lubricant for his severe dry eye. These meds are a must or he'll lose his eyes. Come meet this pair in Aurora.

Over 75% of our dogs are in foster homes along the front range. The foster will get in touch to schedule meetings for their foster dog. Meetings will happen in/near their homes since that is where the dog is the most comfortable. We do want you to bring family members (human and dog) to the meeting! Dogs who are currently at our Windsor facility will have meetings there and a volunteer will reach out to schedule those meetings with you. Please be aware that we do not place our dogs on a first come, first served basis, but rather a best-fit placement. Never fear, applications are valid for a year so if the first dog you meet isn't a good fit, we will have plenty of time to find one that is.
