Story
Hi I'm CiCi! I'm around 7 years old and about 7 pounds, but my fosters are trying to fatten me up a little bit more. They call me a starter chihuahua because I'm small and sweet. I'm pretty easy going once I get to know the other dogs in the home. I'm funny, wiggly, inquisitive and full of love. I really enoy being outside in the sun in the yard, exploring and keeping the local wildlife in line. I'm a little nosey and want to be involved in whatever you're doing, but that just makes me even better company! I am great with older kids and other small dogs, cats are unknown at this point. I would make a great little companion for someone!  Please note: I do have a congenital defect in my back legs. I have had corrective surgery for both knees, but still have a bit of a wonky gait. Due to years of limping, I lost a lot of muscle in my back legs, but I'm building it up again now that I can move better and painlessly If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $300 and I am spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations  ##2719411##

Story
Princess Tomboy here, are you curious about my unusual name? I totally understand, I’m curious about most things…let me tell you a little about myself! If I were a human, my sport would be rugby, I’m a rough and tumble girl with an active play style therefore I need another playful pup in my life (if you don’t have another dog and would consider adopting 2 check out Tuuli, she’s a real sweetheart, and we get along great in our Denver foster home; she even lets me take her toys). A fenced yard is high on my wish list as I love doing zoomies and chasing bunnies, birds, squirrels, etc. A fence helps keep me safe. I enjoy my walks and I’m learning my commands. One thing my foster mom was particularly proud of was when I picked up a chicken bone in the park, she told me to drop it, I did; this has happened twice now. Do you know how hard that is, they’re yummy. I have solid recall and walk well on leash, I’m making good progress stopping and waiting at corners and learning to sit. I love water and I’m sure hiking is something I would enjoy. I am young and need a home committed to continuing my training. I do have a snuggly side and love to curl up with my people and will sleep through the night. My wiggle butt involves my entire body when I see you. I’m such a happy girl! I know this is a lot, but I guess that’s the princess part of my name. I figure I have one shot at this forever home thing and I want to make sure it works for both of us. If I seem to be a good fit for you why wait please fill out the application and add a little joy to your life! Thanks for taking the time to read my profile love Princess Tomboy. If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $300 and I am spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations ##2732831##

Story
Hi I'm Boone. I might be the sweetest boy you've ever met and I give the best hugs. My motto in life is play hard, cuddle hard. Playing with other dogs and running around outside are my favorite things to do. I can’t deny that I am fascinated by bunnies and squirrels, I might need some help focusing! The only thing I like more than playing with other dogs is getting love from my family. I admit, I do like women more than men, and start out a little uncomfortable around strangers. If cuddling was an Olympic sport, I would win the gold medal. I'm pretty chill and up for just about any adventure. I'm also super smart and learn quickly. I am good on my leash but I do need some more training, that’s for sure, those mountain bikers totally worry me. Lucky for us, the rescue has free training classes for adopters!  If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $200 and I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations. It also covers 1 private session with our trainer  ##2180928##

Story
Meet JTT. This sweet boy starts off a little unsure in new situations, but once he warms up, his affectionate, goofy side comes out and he becomes a truly lovely companion. He’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply with his people and appreciates a calm, patient approach as he settles into a new home. What He Loves • Walks: Exploring the neighborhood is one of his favorite ways to build confidence. • Dog friends: He gets along well with other dogs and especially enjoys the company of older, mellow canine buddies who match his gentle energy. • Routine: He sleeps comfortably in his kennel and finds comfort in predictable structure. His Ideal Home He’s still working on his potty training, so he’ll thrive with someone who has time, patience, and consistency to help him continue learning. A home that values slow introductions, positive reinforcement, and ongoing training will help him blossom into his best self. Why You’ll Love Him If you’re looking for a sensitive, sweet dog who just needs a little time to feel safe, he’s your guy. Once he trusts you, he’s loyal, loving, and eager to be part of your daily life. With the right support, he’s going to make an incredible companion. If he sounds like the perfect match for your home, we’d love to introduce you to him. If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $300 and I am neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, recently had a dental and hw neg and on preventatives ##2719406##
