Meet Lana! 🐾❤️* This gorgeous 10-year-old girl is a youthful spirit with a heart of gold! Despite her age, Lana's in excellent health and loves to play, run, and shower her humans with sloppy kisses. She's always up for a game of chase. Lana gets along with most dogs and is specially loving with puppies under a year old. She can get triggered by certain dogs, so a patient and experienced owner is a must. She's not super familiar with kiddos, but has been okay with respectful children - lots of adult supervision recommended. The ideal home for Lana is one with space to run, play, and explore! She thrives on strong leadership, structure, and lots of love. If you're up for the adventure, contact us to learn more about this sweet girl and schedule a meet-and-greet!

Story
Ellie is a beautiful, bright dog who's ready to find a home that understands her. While she can come across as unsure, those who take the time to get to know her quickly discover the sweet, affectionate dog she truly is.Our staff and volunteers have told us that treats are the name of Ellie's game! She may start out a bit cautiously, but her body soon softens as she takes in the sights and smells. She's learning to sit politely and loves to roll in the grass. We anticipate Ellie may take a bit of time to adjust to a new routine, and her ideal family will be patient, supportive, and gentle in how they approach this new friendship to allow Elie some time to warm up to new people. Ellie may enjoy the company of a polite dog or even a cat. Ellie will only be placed in a home without children or with kids at least 10 years of age. Primary Color: Brown Brindle Secondary Color: Brown Brindle Weight: 46.42 Age: 2yrs 1mths 2wks

Boulder, CO

Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Penny, a 6-year-old Basenji mix with a heart full of love and a spirited personality. Originally from Mexico, Penny made her way to California in December 2020 and was quickly adopted. However, she was returned when her previous family found out they were expecting a baby, and Penny wasn’t comfortable around the little one. Penny is a sweet and loving dog who thrives in the right environment. She’s fully house trained, never has accidents inside, and is a joy to have around. Penny enjoys long walks and playing with her toys, but she also loves relaxing and taking naps next to her favorite people. While Penny is not good with other dogs, cats, or kids, she is an ideal companion in a home where she can be the sole focus of attention. She’s working on her reactivity to other dogs on walks, so a patient family willing to help her through her anxiety would be the perfect fit. If you’re looking for a loyal and affectionate dog who will shower you with love and appreciate a calm, dog-free home, Penny is ready to become a cherished member of your family.

Story
This is Chance. He’d had a bit of a rough time before we took him into the rescue, but he’s overcome everything it had thrown at him. Very scared at first, Chance is sadly still a little wary of people He’s very sweet, patient and loving. He’s happy to just have a spot in a comfy home, doesn’t bark or fuss Chance loves to play and be around other dogs. A home with other dogs is a must. He’s very submissive, shares his toys and will turn away from overbearing dogs. He is a little guarded over food and needs to be fed separately He needs a home with patient humans and a doggie or 3 Chance is potty and crate trained will go happily into his crate when asked. He doesn’t do well on a leash, he will chew them and is not happy going on walks. A home with a safe fenced yard is required.
