Story
Hi there.I’m Andy, and let me tell you a little about myself, from me, because honestly… who knows me better than me?First things first: I have a BIG personality. Capital B, capital P. I’m goofy, expressive, and always ready to entertain. I’ve also come a long way in my training journey...like glow-up level growth. I’ve been working with a local trainer at Angels in the Making, and turns out I’m kind of a star student. I learn fast, especially when treats are involved (and yes, treats should always be involved).I’ve lived with other dogs and can totally do that again, but I should be upfront about a couple things:Cats? No thank you. I simply do not understand them and choose peace.Kids? I love people, but I don’t fully understand my own size or strength, so a home with kiddos 10 and up would be best. Think “fun uncle energy,” not “toddler jungle gym.”I also have a special diet because I’m allergic to chicken (tragic, I know). But don’t worry, I’m very food motivated and will happily accept approved snacks in exchange for good behavior, tricks, or just existing handsomely.Some of my favorite qualities:Goofy ??Entertaining ??Quirky bark that will make you laugh ??Extremely unique look ??Secretly learning to embrace my inner couch potato ??I’m the kind of dog who will keep you laughing, impress you with my progress, and then flop dramatically onto the couch like I’ve worked a double shift.If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind companion with a huge heart, a big personality, and a whole lot of potential (plus a very memorable bark), I might just be your guy.Love,Andy ??

Koa

Australian Shepherd

Grand Junction, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story
Koa is an extremely sweet dog. He is a big cuddler and he loves playing with toys and chewing on bones/sticks. He gets along great with other dogs and cats and he loves all people. He has quite a bit of energy, so he needs to go to someone who has a pretty active lifestyle and has time to exercise him daily. He has a little bit of a problem with indoor etiquette so he will need more house training. He will make an amazing companion for someone who can better suit his needs.
