Story
Oh Henley! Henley came to MHCR as part of a multi-dog group that was surrendered to the shelter in Roswell, NM by a backyard breeder. They were said to be great dane/pit mixes. Sweet Henley never broke 50 lbs – it seems the only thing dane about her is possibly her merle coat. Henley was an extremely shut down pup. She didn’t see much (if any) human kindness in her early days. She gets her confidence and comfort from the canine companions around her. Since entering foster care, Henley has had so much growth. She happily takes car rides now (and gets super excited to go). She also walks well on a leash. She can be found wrestling with her foster siblings or snoozing on the couch after a play session. Henley is crate trained (loves her kennel) and doggie door trained. She’s a one-woman type o’ gal and is looking for a human that also has a slight aversion to other human beings and visitors. When she settles in, she will provide lots of love and comfort, but she finds it difficult to settle into multi-human homes. Multi dog homes? Not an issue! That’s her jam! Henley is 1.5 years old. Henley is being fostered in Aurora, 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/henley/.

Story
Buck is a 5-month-old male pit mix who can best be described as a big, clunky meatball with a heart to match. He’s dog-friendly and brings classic “annoying little brother” energy—he’d love a canine buddy to play with, but he’d also be perfectly happy soaking up attention as your one and only. Buck loves toys and is borderline obsessed with fetch… at least until his lazy-bones side kicks in and he decides it’s nap time. When he sleeps, you’ll know it—this guy snores like a champion. He’s smart, curious, and impressively patient for such a young pup. He’s fantastic with kids and very gentle, though still a bit mouthy in that typical puppy way. Buck is crate trained and doing great with house training, improving every day. With his sweet nature, goofy personality, and solid training foundation, Buck is ready to be a fun, loving addition to a lucky home. Buck is in foster in Colorado Springs, 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/buck You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Chunk is a 60 lbs, 5 year old bully mix that joined MHCR in September of 2024. He’s short in stature, big in personality, and commits to his humans for life. Chunk made a canine buddy while in foster care and they spent over a year together before she was recently adopted. Now he is alone. Chunk LOVED playing with her. Their acclimation was slow and steady overtime, though. That’s the way Chunk likes it. He isn’t a kiss on the first date kind of guy; more like the 100th. As such, he’s looking for a cat and canine free home with hermit-ish humans. Walks make him act a fool, car rides aren’t his jam; he wants homebody humans looking for a loyal, silly, companion. Oh! They must also have a crate for him, it’s his safe space. Chunk is a very sweet, loving, extroverted boy with people, and especially when snacks are involved. He’s very chill, low maintenance, and quiet when he settles into a place and understands there are no ongoing threats lurking about. He likes limited play time but mostly is low energy and likes multiple daily naps, snuggles, and sunbathing. He sleeps through the night and is crate and housetrained. He likes baths and is a gentleman in the tub. He lets his little human foster sisters dress him up. He has not been aggressive with people in any manner, even for veterinary visits and ‘scary’ 🙄 nail trims. He’s physically healthy and Iikes to keep his teeth clean with dental chews and sticks. His personality, quirks, and uniqueness know no bounds, and to know him is to know a little splash of comedy and resilience related to enjoying life after darkness. He’s a cute low rider clunker blockhead tank and class clown. Chunk is a constant reminder that saving one dog doesn’t change the world, but it does change the world for that dog. Chunk 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/chunk You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Hi! I’m Zoey, a sweet and gentle lady looking for a quiet, patient home without young children. I prefer to be the only dog, so I can enjoy one-on-one time with my family and feel safe as I come out of my shell. I’m a shy girl at first, but once I warm up, I’m incredibly affectionate and playful. I love head and neck pets, treats, learning new tricks, and gentle belly rubs. I enjoy walks, exploring, and spending time with people who understand that I need a little time to feel confident. I’m smart and treat-motivated, and I already know “sit” and love practicing commands. I may be a little nervous around other dogs at first, but with patience, I show my true playful, loving, and cuddly personality. If you’re looking for a sweet, shy, and loyal companion who will bloom with a calm and caring family, I can’t wait to meet you and start our adventures together!
