CARLOS

American Bulldog

Male, Adult

Denver, CO

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Carlos is an adorable guy with a big personality and an even bigger head to scratch. His signature snaggle tooth gives him plenty of charm, but itâÂÂs his sweet and social nature that really steals the show. Carlos loves attention, especially a good noggin scratch, and enjoys spending time with his favorite people. He lived well with another dog in the past, though he can be reactive when seeing other dogs while on leash. Carlos is looking for a home with kids ages 10 and up who will appreciate his goofy personality and give him plenty of love and attention.July 14, 2026, 12:46 am

Layla is a total cuddlebug who loves being close to her people. SheâÂÂs happiest when sheâÂÂs getting attention, snuggling up, or showing off her playful side with her favorite squeaky toys.

Story

Who wouldn't love a majestic queen like Shiba? She's housetrained and regal, but may need a little more time getting to know you and getting comfortable. Due to this, she'd do best in a home with kids at least 6 or older, and would appreciate getting to meet any other household dogs before coming home with you. So why not drop by to meet her and give her the royal treatment today?July 14, 2026, 12:46 am

She may not have the best vision, but even a blind dog will know when she's found the home of her dreams! Penelope is a sweetheart who adores treats, pets and belly rubs, and knows a few commands (in German, no less)! She loves making friends with all sorts of people! Due to her blindness, she would do best in a single story home without stairs and with older kids, potentially as your only dog. Come meet this good girl today and let her speak for herself!July 14, 2026, 12:46 am

CANELA

Pit Bull Terrier Rottweiler

Female, Adult

Denver, CO

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Canela is a gentle, active girl who enjoys closeness and affection almost as much as she enjoys exercise. She spent much of her early life outdoors and is still adjusting to living indoors fulltime. Canela knows some basic commands - in Spanish! - and is anxious to please. She needs a patient, loving home where she can adapt at her own pace. Canela is a smart cookie, and she needs mental as well as phycial stimulation. Her adopter must be willing to provide both. We recommend older kids in her new home (14 yrs and up); she'll need a slow intro to other pets.July 14, 2026, 12:46 am
