Story
Bella is an approx 2 y/o 10# Chiweenie who was found as a stray in a small rural TX town. No one came in to claim her and she was very frightened at the shelter. She's now in a foster home in CO and is coming out of her shell. She loves to be near her person/people, sit on your lap, and sleep under the covers in the big bed. Bella now loves to play with other dogs but can get snarky if she doesn’t get to be the boss. Bella has a difficult time sharing so we are looking to place her in a home where she is the only dog or with a laid back dog who doesn’t care about her bossiness. Bella needs a secure 6 ft fenced yard as she will be a flight risk for awhile and humans who can take her out frequently. She is potty trained and crate trained. She enjoys walks and is good on the leash but will bark at people, other dogs and unfamiliar things. She had made a lot of progress with her fear barking on walks and will need her new owner to continue with her reward based training. She'd do best with someone (she prefers women over men) home during the day and no small children. She hasn't been overly barky indoors. She was curious about cats but we're not sure how should be be living with them. If interested in meeting Bella, complete our meet and greet application at https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms as the first step. We require the application, home and reference check, and meet with everyone in the home including pets. Bella is spayed, utd on vaccs, chipped, and HW-. Her adoption fee is $375 and we are not doing any out of state adoptions.September 27, 2023, 10:12 am

Story
Are you ready to love Kovu?? This 5 year old 30 pound mini Aussie, formerly known as Meric, is bounding with eagerness to be adopted. As an Aussie, Kovu is highly energetic and needs exercise and stimulation to keep him entertained. He loves your full attention, from petting sessions on the couch to playing ball in the backyard. Kovu has a couple medical issues. He has food-related skin allergies, although this seems to be under control with diet management. He has had a grand mal seizure, whose cause is unknown (maybe epilepsy) but his blood work ruled out liver issues or toxins so he's now on Kepra and doing great. He'll need to continue this prescription. Kovu is good with other dogs and with respectful older children, but he's untested with cats. He'll need a fenced in yard and likely would not be good in an apartment due to some separation anxiety. He is 90% potty trained and crate trained. We know Kovu is high needs but he's not currently thriving in his current foster environment and needs an experienced adopter to help him settle into a perfect pup. If interested in meeting Kovu, you can complete our meet and greet application at  https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms  as the first step. We require the application, home and reference check, and meet with everyone in the home. Kovu is neutered, it’s on vsccs, chipped, and HW-. His adoption fee is $350 and we are not doing any out of state adoptions. September 27, 2023, 10:12 am

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Daisy is an approx 2 year old, 22lb dachshund mix (maybe with Beagle but we’re not exactly sure). She is dog and respectful older kid (10+) friendly, untested with cats. She is potty trained and will use a doggy door or cue by sitting near the door. Daisy will need some quiet time and space when settling into her new home but given that time and space, she will blossom into her truly playful self. She loves playing with and chewing on doggy toys. She loves chasing her doggy siblings around the yard. She's still nervous when the leash and harness come out, but once the walk is underway she starts to relax. She’d do best in a home with a yard or someone patient and experienced teaching positive leash walking. She sleeps in the big bed at night and usually sleeps through the night. She would do best with a canine sibling about her age and size to run around with. If you're interested in meeting Daisy, the first step is to complete our meet and greet application at https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms. Daisy is spayed, utd on vaccs, HW-, and chipped. Her adoption fee is $375 and we are not doing any out of state adoptions.September 27, 2023, 10:12 am

Story
Riley is a treasure! He lost the home he had since puppyhood due to no fault of his own. His owners had to give up all of their pets when they lost their home. His housemates were adopted but Riley just sat in the shelter with little interest. Since coming to CO, he has warmed up to his foster family very quickly and loves to play with his much younger foster sister. You would never guess he is 9+ years old and has had a back surgery (in 2020 we were told). He moves around with ease and gets up and down the stairs just fine. However, we aren’t letting him jump off the bed or couch as a precautionary measure and neither should his new owners. He loves to follow his humans everywhere they go with his tail always wagging, and his favorite thing to do is to cuddle up next to you on the couch and be pet and scratched. Riley is housetrained, however, he will need a little time to adjust to a new environment and routine and may have some potty accidents. He has only had one accident in his foster home. He sleeps quietly through the night in his kennel but would love to sleep in the big bed as well. Riley is not very food motivated, so he needs a little enticement with some canned food or pumpkin added to his kibble. He doesn't seem to know any cues but is working on learning "sit". Riley would do best with someone home during the day with a fenced outdoor space but could adjust to an apartment situation. The biggest hurdle will be getting his potty schedule down and being on a leash. Riley is fine with cats and dogs but we do not recommend children under 12. Riley will low growl if he disapproves of your handling skills or unnecessary collar grabs. He’s very polite about it and should be given some space since he does tell you so politely. We think Riley could be a Corgi/Dachshund/Terrier/Bassett mixey. He’s approx 30#. Riley is neutered, utd on vaccs, chipped, and HW-. If interested in meeting Riley, the first step is to complete our meet and greet application at https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms We require the application, home and reference check , and meet with everyone in the home. Riley’s adoption fee is $200 and we are not doing any out of state adoptions.September 27, 2023, 10:12 am
