My story

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

Say hello to Tinkerbell - this sweet Cane Corso girl, is guessed to be just under 2 yrs old, and from California looking to start a new life in Colorado! She's a little shy at first meeting, but bravely warms to calm and gentle understanding of her special breed. Once she knows you, she enjoys attention and getting out for sniffy walks. Tinkerbell's eyesight is currently obstructed by "cherry eye" in both eyes - a condition that can be surgically corrected (and whose cost will be covered by Big Bones... (currently scheduled for early March). She's waiting in Windsor for her hero... is it you?

Previous handling experience with Cane Corso or other guardian breeds is advised. They require:
- A structured home
- Clear leadership
- Firm (but fair) boundaries
- Consistency every single day
- An owner who understands canine behavior (not just “loves dogs”)
-An owner who knows how to anticipate and manage their protective instinct

Go meet their pets

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.
