Story
I received Gunner as a birthday gift from my kids! I was diagnosed with MS and thought I was able to take care of him! He's very spoiled and I think i'm doing him more harm than good seeing as how I'm in an apartment! He needs to have a yard or alot of acreage to run around! He's not an apartment dog! I care so much for him, I look at him when we are walking by ourselves and he loves it! I always have him on leash when there is no fences, because he or I think he has no recall! But when we go to the dog park he doesn't leave my side! It takes him a minute to warm up to others dogs mainly because he's afraid. When he was a puppy he was afraid of everything! He is leash aggressive and we are trying to work on that but he is too strong for me so I don't walk him on leash around other dogs! I have an electric shock collar for him, but I dont like to use it if I don't have to! I hope that his new owner would love him as much as I do!

Story
Harley is a 4 yr old female GSP mixed. She is very energetic and loves attention. We moved from a home with land into an apartment & she needs more room to run and play. She is a bit aggressive with certain types of dogs but she loves to run and hunt. Hoping she can be rehoused to someone who has land and can be active with her.

Story
Junie is a sweet, fully potty trained, and well behaved 3-year old female Colorado Mountain Dog! She loves people, of all ages (especially kids), and other canine playmates. She needs a loving and patient home with a fair amount of land so she can run, and preferably have a job. She loves the ranch life and gets along with others, but I moved from the ranching life. She needs more room than I have and I'd love to see her thrive in a family who can give her what she needs. She is quiet, unless there is something outside at night. She loves toys, bones, treats, and the occasional dropped food scraps. She is very silly and always brings humor to the day! She will only sleep in a dog bed and has done so since she was a puppy. I never knew why; I think the previous owner/breeder taught her this. She needs to run to be the best behaved dog. If she doesn't, she'll have some behavior issues. She knows vocal commands, on-leash and off. Please reach out with questions.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
I am selling my home and the new place im moving into wont allow me to bring Spur. Spur is 5 years old. He is full of life and energy. He is a Red healer/ Catahula mix so he is a cattle dog. I never worked him since i dont live on a farm but that is what he is bred for. I am looking for someone that has land if possible so he has room to run. It breaks my heart and my daughters to have to get rid of him but i have no choice.

Lou

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Loveland, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Lou is a sweet boy. Likes cuddles on the couch and walks. He is a good guard dog. Little wary around men at first but settles with some reassurance. Loves children and is very tolerant. He comes with a crate, harness and leash. He is fostered with Tika. We are open to adopters willing to adopt one or both dogs. Lou’s rabies has recently expired. They need a yard with a tall fence or long tie downs. We only took these dogs on to foster them. Since their owners were facing eviction from affordable housing and didn’t have the time to find them a new home. They aren’t our preferred breed and we have some travel plans coming up that would make it hard and expensive to keep these two. Please reach out if you have any questions. We are in Billings, MT. And are willing to travel to neighboring states to transport the dogs and meet potential adopters.

Story
I have had my boy Leon for 4.5 yrs. Got him when he was about 6 months old. He will be 5 this April. Currently he does have some skin issues, not sure exactly what but right now he is missing some fur and I think has some sort of ear mites. Along with some rashes. I have done my best to treat them but at the moment not much seems to be helping him. And right now I am unable to take him to the vet. He does have pretty bad anxiety and can get reactive when at the vets. Not sure if anything ever happened when I wasn't present, but he has a difficult time. He had parvo as a puppy and due to this he has a more sensitive tummy. And will not put any more weight than approx 50 lbs. He is an extremely good road trip dog. Loves walks but could use some more training. He is fine with most dogs. Does not do well with cats or horses. He has been having some reactive issues with people and will need a patient person to help him with this. I am not in a place to give him the care he needs right now.
