Story
Once Tinkerbell feels comfortable, her true personality really shines. She’ll happily roll around in your lap and paw at you, asking for more love and attention. It’s in these moments that her sweet, playful, and wonderfully goofy nature comes out in full. This smart girl knows sit, paw, and catch!SAFE DOG MEETS AT THE SHELTER: https://www.tjoconnoradoptioncenter.com/what-we-do/safe-dog-meetsOTHER PETS: Tinkerbell has done well with smaller dogs during her time at TJO. However, she would thrive best as the only pet in a home, as she can become uncomfortable when other dogs receive attention.Should be only pet OWNER EXPERIENCE: Tinkerbell would do best with an adopter who has prior experience with positive reinforcement, and understands that some dogs need extra time to adjust. She’s a sensitive girl who will benefit from a patient, understanding owner who can give her the support she needs during her transition, making sure to allow her to set the pace. Some Experience KIDS: Tinkerbell is a cautious dog who takes her time warming up to new people and environments. She can be a bit skittish around sudden sounds and movements, so she thrives best in a calm, predictable home. Because of this, Tinkerbell would do best with children aged 15 and older who understand how to approach dogs gently and respectfully. Any potential adopters with kids should plan for a meet-and-greet to ensure everyone feels comfortable. Kids 15+ (Must Meet First) ACTIVITY LEVEL:Tinkerbell has a moderate activity level, enjoying a mixture of playtime and relaxation. She loves being outdoors and can be playful when the mood strikes, but she’s just as happy lounging around and taking it easy. She would do well with regular walks and some fun time outside, followed by plenty of time to relax and unwind at home. A combination of exercise and mental enrichment will help meet her needs. Couch Potato VETERINARY CARE: Routine LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Tinkerbell will thrive with positive reinforcement, using treats, praise, and patience to help her feel safe and build trust while reinforcing new skills and fun tricks. Because she can be nervous around sudden noises, quick movements, and new people, she’ll need continued support to grow her confidence at her own pace. Gentle, exposure to new experiences at her pace will help her feel more secure over time. With understanding and encouragement, Tinkerbell can blossom into a more confident and comfortable girl.GROOMING:Minimal June 13, 2026, 5:28 pm

Story
If you would like to apply to take CLEMENTINE home, click the link next to their picture, or Visit our website at Www.godogsgorescue.org and fill out an application! We look forward to hearing from you. Clementine was returned to the rescue because her mom fell sick and passed away. She was the only dog at her house but wasn’t sure what to think about multiple dogs. At the time her foster mom had 2 puppies in a pen. Clementine felt safe with them and learned she was safe. The puppies showed her the way. Clementine learned how to go out the dog door and to play. From there she has grown in confidence.. she now likes to come up and ask for kisses and hugs. Clementine loves to play with the big dogs now but still not sure when you chase after her. She is your alarm system she likes to let you know someone is outside. She is not sure of strangers coming in but once she feels comfortable with them she comes up to see them and smell them… she is a sweet girl and would love to have her forever!

Story
***IN FOSTER--call to schedule a meet***Peter was a bit underweight and nervous when he first came to TJO but after a good night's sleep and a few days of regular, nutritious meals, he was feeling a little better and a little braver. Peter is at a more appropriate weight and has been making friends with staff and volunteers while he enjoys being safe and warm during all these snow storms.OTHER PETS: Peter is mostly disinterested in other dogs but when uncomfortable will get irritated across the barrier with another dog. He would do well as an only pet. [Only Pet] OWNER EXPERIENCE: [First Dog] Experience with positive reinforcement or willingness to learn. Peter is pretty easy-going and enjoys the company of a human friend, some playtime, and opportunities to rest on a soft bed. Peter does not love giving up his toys, so to help him feel confident, trading up (with another toy or high value treat) is a a safer way to remove toys and will help him worry less about losing high value items. GROOMING: [Minimal] KIDS: Peter has been uncomfortable with some handling but tolerant of it, he does solicit physical interaction but arthritis makes him sore. He can be a little grabby with toys, unintentionally brushing teeth against fingers or knuckles when giving/taking toys; Peter would not be a good fit for younger children and should meet everyone he would be living with prior to adoption. [13+ (Must Meet First)]ACTIVITY LEVEL: Peter still enjoys being active but too much walking could aggravate his arthritis; he enjoys playing with humans and toys, sometimes getting grabby with toys and fixating on them occasionally. Peter would do well with a variety of mental enrichment activities - a combination of physical activity and mental stimulation will help meet his needs and keep him young; you can also speak with your vet about diet and exercise/physical therapy referals. [Good Yoga Buddy] VETERINARY CARE: Peter will need a good relationship with a vet to ensure his arthritis is optimally managed and he is able to remain active well into old age. [Above Average] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Peter bond with his new owner, build self-confidence, and new skills and fun tricks. Positive reinforcement is a great way to keep his mind engaged and active to fully meet his needs. [Minimal]June 13, 2026, 5:28 pm
