Story
Chewbacca is an 8 year old Bernadoodle and still has so much energy left to share his love with a new forever home! He loves the outdoors, playing tug of war and fetch. He has been around babies, small children, other dogs and cats all without any issues. He loves belly rubs and knowing you are home. He has never had any health related issues, but a resting tremor that he has had since he was a puppy and only visible when he stands in a certain position. He is good at the groomers and is usually a party favorite for his good nature. He would need his shots updated if you would like, but we have never had an issue so we haven’t had them updated.

Story
Tiny little girl needs loving home and a lap! She's shy but warms up quicklyBarbara is a very small dog from a hoarding situation.  She was with about 20 others and is looking for a safer, cleaner home.  She is shy at first but warms up and loves to sit in a lap.  She is playful with other small dogs.  She is fine with cats.  She is 5 lbs but still quite thin and probably needs to gain a pound.  I marked her as 1 yr 3 mos old but its a guess.   Barbara is spayed, chipped, up to date on vaccines.  Please put in your application if you can socialize her or not, as we want her to get more friendly for her own sake.  She is very much going in the right direction.  If you are interested in Barbara, please email Lisa at lisap27@hotmail.com for an application or if you have more questions about her.   or click  https://coloradoanimalwelfare.com/adoptions/adoption-application/#page-content    March 5, 2026, 4:02 pm

Story
Sage became part of our family when she was only 2mo old and has been living with us since. She is a (crate trained) very happy girl, loves snuggles, play fetch, run in the yard, and just be around people (she loves visits!). She is very food-motivated, and responds mostly well to positive reinforcement. She enjoys her bed and being tucked in at night. She's also a great home protector. She would thrive in a home that can offer structure and engagement. She does best as the only dog in the house, as she is reactive around other dogs. She has lived with a cat since we have her and coexists well. As our family has grown and we now have a toddler (and I run an in home daycare), we've made the very difficult decision to find a home better suited to her needs and stimulation levels and can give her the attention and love that she needs. We are looking for an adult-only or older-children home, ideally with breed experience, that can provide patience, stability, and lots of love.

Story
Still available: We have a healthy, beautiful 1yr old husky/malamute mix who we adopted at 10wks. We already had two 9yo small dogs and thought that her growing up with them would be fine. We’ve had Kodi for a year now and she is the sweetest, cutest, most loving, smart dog however her natural prey drive is instinctively too much for our little dogs and cat. So she’s not a good fit for families with small animals, but great for a fam with kids or big dogs. She’s a sweet and playful dog, LOVES playtime with my kids, and loves her toys, but she doesn’t get enough exercise due to our work and kid sport sched. The decision to re-home breaks our hearts, but she’s just not a fit for our fam right now - it’s unfair to her that we don’t have the time to devote, and also unfair to our old lil dogs. Needs a fam with time to devote and a yard. House trained, kennel trained, vaccinated, microchipped, spayed, and about full grown at 50 lb. Kennel, bed, toys, bowls, harness/leash, will be provided.
