Story
Sweetie is a good dog, in every way. My elderly aunt adopted her in Ohio. We believe she was rescued from a puppy mill where she was a breeding female. Unfortunately, my aunt passed away last December in a car accident. I was very close to my aunt and when my family and I went back to Illinois to handle the estate and arrangements my daughter (who was also very close to her GANT (her name for “great aunt”) and I decided Aunt Di would want us to take Sweetie. A couple weeks in my son started to display signs of being allergic. We don’t want to lose her but no amount of air filters,vacuuming, or special shampoo is working. She doesn’t bark, bite, or jump up on people. She wants nothing more than to follow you around the house and lay with you. She’s roughly 7, and has a heart murmur, a couple bad teeth and arthritis in her hip. She only limes short walks then insists on being carried. She’s known nothing but love since she was rescued. She’s up to date with all her shots.

Spur is a 6 yr old red healer/ catahoula mix. He has tons of energy and is a big time lover. He is definately a fun dog and is always ready to go. He should be on a farm working but as long as he has a loving owner he will be fine. Im moving and cant have him where im going. That is the only reason im getting rid of him.

Story
Jameson, our 7 year old hound mix, is a good boy, but we can't take him with us when we relocate across country. He is very calm and quiet, except for when he hears a firetruck. In that case, he loves to howl along. He has anxiety when he hears fireworks, but if you snuggle with him he feels better. He knows basic commands, and likes to go on walks but he can be dog reactive. A harness helps with that. He loves to show people his toys. He doesn't really tear them up, he's very gentle with them. If he can't find a toy to show you, he'll pick up a leaf or rock to show you because he just loves being told he's a good boy. He's good with kids and loves to snuggle. He loves to lay at your feet, curled up and cozy. He will be deeply missed by our family and he deserves so much love.

Sugar

American Pit Bull Terrier French Bulldog

Female, Adult
Loveland, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Sugar loves people of all ages, she is a lapdog if allowed, and will sleep close to you if you let her. Her best new family will have no other female dogs, though she gets along great with males. Not sure how she would be with cats. She needs an updated rabies shot and I have scheduled that. Otherwise she’s a healthy 2.5 year old Pitt mix with a sweet disposition.

Marlin

Border Collie

Male, Adult
Loveland, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Recently, our 9-month-old son was crawling past Marlin. Marlin gave a quick corrective nip/bite that unfortunately caught our son on the face. While it was clearly a boundary-setting response rather than a sustained or aggressive attack, it resulted in a facial injury. Given our son’s young age and mobility, we can no longer safely manage the household environment to prevent another incident. We feel strongly that Marlin deserves a home where he doesn't feel stressed by unpredictable infant behavior.

Story
The perfect home for Tiny would be someone with patience, understanding, and the time to help her continue to blossom. Tiny isn’t a dog you will adopt and immediately and get to love you. But that’s one of the things that makes her so special! She would do best with someone who is home most of the day or has a flexible schedule. Tiny seems to be housebroken (and will use a pee pad) but her foster mom takes her outside regularly throughout the day. At mealtime, she prefers to be hand-fed and currently has little interest in eating from a bowl. Tiny gets along well with other dogs, although this sweet, toothless little girl has a bit of sass! She may occasionally guard her favorite person around other dogs, so her new family should be aware of this and be willing to continue helping her feel safe and secure. If you're looking for a special little companion and have the patience to let love grow at Tiny's pace, she will be well worth the wait! Email us with questions at rescue@harleysdream.org.
