About 1 year old • Reno, NV • Gentle Soul • Needs a Patient, Loving Home
Aspen is a soft, tender-hearted boy who has known more fear than comfort in his young life — but even still, his sweetness shines through. He is about a year old and carries a quiet, gentle spirit that will absolutely blossom in the right home.
Aspen is very shy with new people and new situations. He needs someone who understands that trust takes time — someone who will move slowly, speak softly, and show him that love is safe. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body; he simply needs reassurance, routine, and patience.
Around other dogs, Aspen feels more confident and secure, so a home with another friendly, calm dog would be wonderful for him. He watches other dogs for cues, and their presence helps him step forward in tiny, brave ways.
Aspen is:
~1 year old
Very shy with people
Gentle, sweet, and sensitive
Comforted by other dogs
Looking for a quiet, steady, loving home
Ready for someone who believes in him 🕊️
Aspen’s love won’t come all at once — it will unfold slowly, beautifully, and honestly. When he finally lays his head in your lap and sighs that deep, trusting sigh… it will mean everything.
If you are the kind of person who loves softly, patiently, and deeply — Aspen is waiting for you.

Tucked away in the wide-open spaces of Northern Nevada, Grandma’s Barn Rescue & Sanctuary is a safe and loving refuge for animals in need. We provide care and shelter to horses, donkeys, and dogs, and dream of expanding our rescue to welcome cows, goats, and other farm animals in the near future.
Our name is inspired by our beloved great-grandmother, who at 99 years old continues to share her deep love for animals. Grandma’s compassion is the heart of our mission—to give every animal a second chance at life, whether through permanent sanctuary, foster care, or adoption into a forever home.
At Grandma’s Barn, we believe that every animal deserves to feel safe, valued, and loved. Whether you’re looking to adopt, foster, support, or simply follow along, we’re so glad you're here. Welcome to the barn—where love lives, and every animal matters.
