Meet Mel — a sunshine-colored spark plug with a heart full of love and paws full of zoomies! This adorable 3–4 month old, heeler mix is equal parts brains, beauty, and bounce.

But don’t let the playful energy fool you — once the fun is done, Mel is all about the snuggles. She loves cuddling up and soaking in affection from her favorite people. She’s dog-friendly, kid-friendly, and ready to be everyone’s new best friend.

Story
Stormy is the cutest little low rider diva princess pocket pittie (only 37 lbs!) around! This girl is 4-6 years old, yet she’s spunky and packed full of personality! Stormy loves life! She loves the human in it and seems to like most dogs, too! Stormy joined MHCR as a transfer from a high-volume shelter in Houston. We couldn’t believe her adorable melon head needed our help, but we are so glad we could save her! She was glad to leave Texas as she is quite allergic to their fleas. With a good, medicated bath, some Zyrtec, and cleaning out her ears, she is feeling soooooo much better. Her coat is filling in, too! She is a healthy girl now and is ready to find her forever home. Stormy walks decently on leash, is crate trained, and seems housetrained. She requests humans that are home often, allow furniture privileges, a yard or deck for sunbathing, and humans that have plenty of kisses, snuggles, and belly rubs. Balls are Stormy’s absolute favorite toys on earth. So, it would helpful if her forever humans had a strong arm so they could throw the ball for her, a lot. Stormy will be best suited in a feline free home. Stormy is in foster in Fort Collins, 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/stormy You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Meet Archie 🐾 At just 11 weeks old, Archie is a sweet, affectionate Aussie mix who’s fully embracing his bitty puppy era. He’s got a heart as big as his paws—and a whole lot of energy to go with it! This little guy is always on the move, ready to play, explore, and turn anything into a game. He thrives on activity and will need plenty of daily exercise and mental stimulation to keep his clever puppy brain happy. Archie is incredibly friendly and would do best in an active household that can keep up with his playful, go-go-go spirit. He’d especially love having another young dog around to wrestle, chase, and learn from—it would help him burn off energy and build confidence. Like any growing pup, Archie will need consistent obedience training to channel all that enthusiasm into good habits. With structure, exercise, and love, he’s going to be an amazing companion. If you’re looking for a future hiking or running buddy who will keep you active, make you laugh, and then curl up for snuggles after a big day, Archie might just be your perfect match 💛 Archie is being fostered in Castle Rock, 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/archie/.

Story
Hugo is a 65lbs, senior, pittie mix looking for his forever human(s) to help him make the last part of his life THE BEST PART. He is thought to be around 10-12 years old, but Hugo reminds us that age is just a number and you are never too old for new beginnings. Hugo was picked up as a dirty ‘stray’ walking around Houston with a large tumor (it wasn’t cancer and was benign…yay!) dangling from his side. He seems to have had a home at one point— he’s comfortable and loving with people, has decent leash walking skills, and someone went thru the trouble of giving him ‘at home crop job’ leaving his ears butchered. Unfortunately, he quickly found himself at the top of the euthanasia list due to his age. That’s when MHCR decided to help. After arriving into rescue, Hugo got a makeover—neuter, tumor removal, and an extensive dental cleaning with numerous extractions. He was a total champ! He is doing well with a great attitude and had beautiful levels on his bloodwork! Hugo is looking for a nice retirement home without a ton of hustle and bustle. He does have arthritis and appreciates not having to do a lot of stairs, though he would never admit it and still thinks he can do all the things. He also doesn’t hear very well, but he doesn’t seem to mind; in fact, he’s a character and sometimes we suspect maybe his hearing is just selective. He loves meals, occasional strolls, comfy beds, and is a low maintenance fellow. Hugo is ready to give his forever humans all the love in the world for as long as they are lucky to have him. He also likes kids, other dogs and doesn’t seem to mind cats! Hugo is being fostered in Fort Collins, 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/hugo/.

Details

Story
Ryder is a 6-month-old, poodle mix that weighs around 25–30 lbs — with a little growing left to do, but not much. He is a gentle, sensitive boy who’s still learning that the world is a safe and happy place. He can be a bit timid at first, but give him a little time and patience and you’ll see his sweet personality start to shine. Once he feels comfortable, he absolutely loves other dogs and gains a lot of confidence from having canine friends around. He would do best in a home with a confident, friendly dog (or two!) to help show him the ropes. He also adores affection from his favorite people and will happily soak up all the pets once he trusts you. He’s doing great with the basics—he uses a doggie door, appears to be house trained, and sleeps quietly through the night in his crate. Because of his sensitive nature, he’d do best in a home with older, respectful kiddos who understand how to give him space when he needs it. This sweet boy is looking for a patient, loving home that will continue building his confidence and celebrate all the little wins along the way. In return, you’ll get a loyal, loving companion who just needed a little extra time to blossom. Ryder is in foster in Fort Collins, 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/ryder You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Hershey is a 1–2 year old Dachshund mix with a big personality. This spunky little girl is full of energy and loves being close to her people—wherever you are, that’s exactly where she wants to be. She’s doing wonderfully with house training and is making great progress learning the ropes on a leash. Hershey is crate trained, settles in nicely, and has proven to be non-destructive in her foster home. Hershey is mostly indifferent to cats and can coexist just fine. With other dogs, she’s still learning that she doesn’t always have to keep her favorite human all to herself. She can get a little possessive of attention, but she’s improving with consistency and guidance. Because of this, she could thrive either as an only dog soaking up all the love, or in a home with another dog (and humans) that understands her need for boundaries and a little reassurance. Hershey is a fun, affectionate companion who will keep you smiling with her lively spirit and devotion. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick who wants nothing more than to be your little shadow, Hershey is ready to fill that role perfectly. Hershey 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/hershey You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.
