Story
Lotus was rescued in Colorado almost 9 years ago. We believe she was abandoned by her previous owners. She will be 10 in November. She is the sweetest dog in the world. She is loyal, great with kids, with lots of energy. She has severe separation anxiety and is not able to be outside without a fenced yard (even fences don’t always keep her in). Unfortunately, we have to rehome her as she gets out frequently (we do not have a fenced yard) and will get neighbors animals (chickens mostly). This was a terribly hard decision for us to make and we just want to find her a good home.

Story
Riggs is almost 3 yrs old, and he is a very happy boy, he has big ears and an even bigger smile. He needs a yard to burn some energy for sure. He walks on a leash and is eager to go from one place to the next to explore! He loves to play with tennis balls and chew toys and is potty and crate trained. He knows how to sit and shake and is eager to please. He loves everyone, kids and adults.

Story
Mitch is the most adorable pup, who is apx 1.5 years old. He was born in November. He just stopped not getting along with his dad. Im to old to be dealing with this behavior. Its been awful. Mitch would have to be placed with a female or no dogs at all. He is wonderful with the other dogs until I come home from work or im petting Diego his dad. Then its WWIII. Its probably not what people want to hear but he can be vicious. He nas NEVER bitten me. Even when I reach in and grab him he's never bitten me. I think the 2 boys have imprinted on ME and they are no longer tolerant of each other when Im home.. a different environment He will thrive. I have 6 other dogs. Anybquestions.

Story
Samson is a 4 year old Male Husky/German Shepherd/Grey Wolf mix (previous owners told me 20% wolf but I’m unable to verify) and fully intact. He is experienced with being an indoor and an outdoor dog, does well with kids, and does well with other dogs when given a good start. He knows basic commands (sit, down, shake, speak, place, release, come, up, off, out (of mouth) ) I would love to make sure that he is placed in a home with a yard - ideally with somebody that understands his specific needs as a highly intelligent dog! He is crate and muzzle trained, and does very well on leash when with somebody who understands leash tension and walking

Story
Zorro or Zozo is a sweet boy that just wants love. He has been raised with his sister and is very close to her but could be a great friend on his own. He has been through basic obedience training and can walk on a lead. He has been socialized with other dogs at Doggy daycare since he was young. He is also a great watch dog when in the house or yard. We are looking to rehome him due to a change in our circumstances and not being able to give him the time and love he deserves.
