Story
Foster update: Andi is doing really well in her foster home. She is housebroken to use a doggie door. Her demeanor is calm and she is a puppy who loves to play. Andi also responds to simple commands such as “Sit”, “Down”, “No”. After time outside Andi is a bit of a couch potato.
This baby girl is a real sweetheart! Andi is affectionate and playful, loves to cuddle and gaze into your eyes. She was rescued from an overcrowed shelter and seems to have spent a lot of time in a kennel. She has come a long way towards learning to play outdoors and share a home with people. At first Andi behaves a bit shy but she quickly warms up to a friendly voice and soon rolls over for a belly rub. She’s making progress in house training, walking on a leash and learning commands like “sit”. Given that she hasn’t been exposed to children or cats in the foster home, it would be beneficial to gradually introduce them to her. Andi is an adorable puppy with a lot of potential. Her gentle and calm nature with other dogs and people makes her a great companion.
This pup was rescued from a crowded shelter in New Mexico.

Adoption fees include vaccines up until time of adoption, microchip, spay/neuter and 1st 30 days of free Pet insurance. We are not affiliated with Pet First pet insurance. (you have to sign up for the insurance or it will not go into effect). Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets.
The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances.

Breed labels are a "best guess" by a shelter veterinarian and cannot be guaranteed.
A new study has concluded that (in layman's terms), breed assumption is NOT indicative of behavior in mixed breed dogs. Therefore, if a dog looks presumably to be a German Shepherd breed, one cannot assume the dog will have a high prey drive. From the study: "Although many physical traits were associated with breeds, behavior was much more variable among individual dogs. In general, physical trait heritability was a greater predictor of breed but was not necessarily a predictor of breed ancestry in mutts. Among behavioral traits, biddability—how well dogs respond to human direction—was the most heritable by breed but varied significantly among individual dogs. Thus, dog breed is generally a poor predictor of individual behavior and should not be used to inform decisions relating to selection of a pet dog" - https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abk0639
