Story
Remi was adopted from weld county humane society 2 and a half years ago, I inherited him with my ex who I am no longer with and was ultimately left with remi. I’ve done my absolute best to keep him but this is the first dog I’ve ever had and I think I’ve reached a point where I am simply just not home enough to give him the attention and time he needs. Remi is truly the BEST dog. He listens very well, he is so well behaved, he is so sweet and lovable, he doesn’t have accidents inside, he is not a barker, he is very good with cats and children, he doesn’t care much for other dogs as in he just ignores them. Remi is an older dog and he deserves the upmost love and affection at this time in his life.

Story
Meet Rex! This 6-month-old, 5 lbs, Chihuahua/Dachshund mix is a sweet, snuggly little guy who loves people, playing with toys, and doing all the fun puppy things. When playtime is over, he’s happy to curl up with his favorite humans for some quality cuddle time. He’s dog-friendly and sleeps happily in his crate with his brother. Rex has a few things he’s still working on, including potty training, and he can be a little protective of his space or his beloved yak cheese. He’ll benefit from continued guidance and security that he doesn’t have to defend his favorite things. He’s also a bit of a picky eater, so mealtime may require some negotiation! Rex is a typical work-in-progress puppy with lots of love to give. He’s ready for a family who will help him navigate puppyhood, build his confidence, and give him plenty of opportunities to play, learn, and snuggle. As a young pup, Rex sustained a break to his growth plates in his front right leg. It has caused that leg to grow a little wonky. At present, the breaks are not painful and he runs and plays and uses his leg like normal (only it’s not). It’s possible, as he ages, he may need supportive care and/or an amputation. Only time will tell! Rex is in foster in Parker, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/rex You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Meet Jitter! This 2-year-old, 15-lb Terrier mix is a happy, playful little guy with enough energy to keep you smiling all day! Jitter LOVES his humans, but he especially loves his dog friends. Playing chase, romping with toys, and having a playful pup to hang out with are his favorite things, so he really needs another playful dog in his new home. When it’s time to settle down, Jitter does nicely in his crate. He’s still working on his house training and learning about cats, so a very dog-savvy cat may be a possibility. Jitter will need a home with a secure fence at least 5 feet tall where he can safely burn off some of that terrier energy. If you’re looking for a fun-loving little sidekick with a big personality, Jitter might be your guy! Jitter is in foster in Mead, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/jitter You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Meet Ted. (Not short for Teddy or Theodore – just TED). Basset Hound, vintage variety. Single, not big on mingling. Rural boy with a deep-seated hatred for city slickers and anyone who doesn’t love George Jones. Drives a ‘74 Chevy K10 with expired plates. His driver license says he’s 6’5” and you best not question it. Doesn’t believe in “new fangled” technology like cell phones, wifi or cable tv. His favorite movie is anything with Clint Eastwood. Owns two “nice” shirts, both purchased during the Ford administration. Has a land line that he uses regularly to (1) order items from the Lehman’s catalog and (2) call the mayor’s office to complain about speeders on his road. Enjoys spending time on the front porch, yelling at the neighborhood kids to get the hell off his lawn, which he mows every Sunday after church. Occasionally frequents the VFW for pancake breakfasts and skeet shoots (but only when he’s feeling social.) Grills a mean ribeye and always serves it with a fully loaded baked potato. Ted believes everyone is entitled to their opinion. If you’d like to hear why yours is wrong, reach out to schedule a meet and greet! (Ted is in foster in west Longmont). In all seriousness, he’s crated trained, house trained (but marks sometimes without belly band on), barks when excited, tries to play but isn’t really good at it – entertains himself. Ted likes to be touching his people—loves couch time. Ted is in foster in Longmont, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/ted You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.
