Story
Meet Odie, a lovable and energetic older boy looking for a loving home! Odie is full of life and excitement, with a heart that's as big as his personality. Odie arrived at Foothills as a stray, so we don't know what he experienced in his previous life. Odie is still learning his manners, but he's eager to please and would thrive in a home that can provide structure, patience, and some basic training. With his intelligence and enthusiasm, he's sure to become a loyal and loving companion.Odie has been described by our walkers as eager and energetic and loves human companionship. At the beginning of their walks with him, although he pull on the leash and his enthusiasm may seem a bit much, after a few minutes, he calms down and is easy to walk. He's very sweet, will sit for treats and likes to lean in for pets and give kisses.We're betting Odie would love an outdoorsy family or a family that enjoys spending quality time playing with or teaching their dog fun skills!

What a handsome fella! Sampson takes his time to warm up to new environments and people. Allowing him time to rest and familiarize himself with his new home at his pace is going to help him feel most comfortable. Once this cutie is settled, he loves butt pats, snow, hiking, and running with his family! Sampson has lived successfully with cats in his foster home. Sampson has benefitted from the presence of other canines, so he's recommended for a multi-dog home. He's recommended for a home without young children at this time.

Zane

Labrador Retriever

Male, Young
Golden, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Happy-go-lucky Zane is looking for a new home to bounce into! This energetic boy is looking forward to being showered with treats and attention in his new home. Zane would appreciate a quiet spot to land, with some patient humans who can give him the time he needs to acclimate to a new home, create some low-pressure consistency and provide opportunities for genuine rest and freestyle play that will help him settle in. Following some sniffy adventures, he'd likely enjoy a puzzle toy or a chew to further stimulate him during downtime indoors.Our volunteers tell us that Zane gets excited when they leash him up for his walks but soon calms down. He walks with minimal pulling, but loud noises may startle him and when that happens, they can easily redirect his attention back to them with treats ... and apparently the stinkier the better. He also loves getting his back scratched.Need motivation to be active? Zane may make a good jogging, hiking, or just plain walking partner. Zane has enjoyed opportunities for play with other dogs, and he will only be placed in a home without cats. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 74.2 Age: 1yrs 10mths 2wks
