Nacho #1 | 3 ½ month old Aussie mix | Cuddly, playful little firecracker
Nacho is an approximately 3 ½ month old Aussie mix weighing about 20 pounds, with striking orange and white coloring and a big puppy personality to match. He is equal parts playful and snuggly — a happy, affectionate boy who loves being near his people. He’ll happily rest his head on you, roll over for belly rubs, and if given the chance, burrow under the covers to cozy up.
Nacho is almost fully house trained. He will whine and stand by the door when he needs to go out, though as with any young puppy, occasional accidents can still happen. He is doing great with kennel training — he goes in easily and often sleeps through the night, though he may whine occasionally. He has not yet been left home alone, as he’s still young and settling in.
On leash, Nacho does fairly well but can pull, especially when he’s excited. He responds well to structure and is learning quickly. He already knows “sit” and is highly motivated by both food and affection, which will make continued training fun and productive. He is still working on taking treats gently, but he’s improving with practice.
Nacho has had positive interactions with other dogs and would likely thrive in a home with a playful canine companion. Because he plays enthusiastically and can be a bit rough in typical puppy fashion, a home without cats would likely be best. He has not yet met children. His energy level is medium — he enjoys playtime, fetch, chew toys, and walks, but once he’s had some activity, he’s content to relax and cuddle.
He does have a vocal side and isn’t shy about expressing himself, which is something potential adopters should be prepared for. Overall, Nacho is a sweet, friendly, fun-loving puppy who will do best in an active home ready to continue his training and embrace all the joyful chaos that comes with puppyhood.
If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives! A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you.
The adoption fee for this pet is $425. Our adoption fee covers the following:
Spay/neuter
Microchip
DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.
Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.
Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption.
Please fill out an adoption application by clicking here . Please give us 48 hours to review your application and respond to you. (Remember to check your spam folder for our emails!) We want our pets to go to a lifelong new home, so thank you for your patience during the adoption process!
Please email dogs@arrcolorado.org for more information, as we can't accept calls.
PLEASE NOTE: The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter. Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets. Here is some interesting info on breed identification: https://arrcolorado.org/category/puppy-dog-tips/
Our adoption process is:
1. Fill out our Adoption Application online. We'll contact you within 48 hours to answer any questions you may have about the pet.
2. If the pet looks like a great match, we'll schedule a meet and greet and ask you to fill out our online Adoption Agreement if you'd like to proceed with adopting. Once you've completed the Adoption Agreement and pay the pet's Adoption Fee, you can arrange to pick up your new furry family member!
