This friendly fella has been on his absolute best behavior with every dog and puppy we’ve introduced him to—he’s got gentle big brother energy down pat.

He’s got that go-anywhere, do-anything demeanor that makes life with him feel effortless. Whether you’re headed out for a casual adventure or settling in for a cozy evening on the couch , he’s just happy to be part of the moment. If you’re looking for a steady, loving, loyal companion who fits in with nearly any environment, Boomer is your guy. This wonderful, well-rounded Shepherd mix is ready to start his next chapter—with you.

Story
Meet Pepper  Pepper is an approximately 2-year-old, 37 pound cattle dog mix with the perfect blend of energy and melt-into-you affection. Pepper’s journey hasn’t been the easiest, so she needs some time to truly trust new people. During that time, she prefers to tuck herself under the bed or coffee table — her safe little hideaways where she can quietly get used to your presence. But once she decides you’re her person? Oh, she loves with her whole heart. When Pepper bonds, she bonds completely. She comes when called, seeks out cuddles, and will happily curl up on the bed to sleep close to you. She craves touch, gentle reassurance, and connection — and she gives it all right back. Despite her initial shyness, Pepper is wonderfully well-mannered in the home. She hasn’t been kenneled once in while she’s been in foster care and has never destroyed a single thing. She’s smart, respectful, and eager to understand what’s expected of her. This congenial girl lives with 4 other dogs of varying sizes and loves them all! Pepper enjoys playing and is pretty energetic in her play-style. She listens well when she is asked to settle down a bit too.  Leash life is still a little scary for her, but with patience, encouragement, and consistency, she will absolutely get there — especially because this girl is very intelligent and wants to please. Another friendly, confident dog in the home will help her continue to learn and feel safe. Pepper is looking for: A patient foster or adopter Someone who understands shy or sensitive dogs A home with another welcoming dog to show her the ropes A family who will give her the time she needs to trust — and then enjoy the loyal, adoring companion she becomes If you’re the kind of person who finds joy in watching a shy dog blossom — who wants to be someone’s safe place and receive unconditional love in return — Pepper just might be your heart dog. If you give Pepper the time she needs, she’ll give you everything. If you would like to adopt/foster please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $250 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   ##2594816##

Story
Meet Louie. My sweet, high energy 13-year-old who definitely doesn’t act his age. He’s around 40 lbs and loves sleeping in the bed or on anything soft. He’s a total sucker for belly rubs, being babied, and soaking up attention. Louie has lived around many dogs, but in his older age he can be iffy with dogs his size or larger, though he loves small dogs. He’s been separated from his brother for boarding during travel with no issues. With my long work hours, I’m not able to give him the consistent time and comfort he really thrives on. Louie would do best in a home that wants an affectionate, people-oriented dog with lots of personality and love to give.

The world’s most loveable sweet dog. I adopted sweet boy Knight around March and he has grown to be so loving. He needs to burn energy everyday, along with tons of pets and cuddles. He does have a sensitive stomach and can get bored very easily. He loves other humans and dogs, but a bit shy around kids. I’m not sure about cats. He’s ready for a new home and for someone to love him the way he deserves.

Marigold was brought into the shelter as a stray. She is between 1-3 years old. She is a very sweet, loving girl, but would benefit from an owner that has experience with rescues and/or cattle dogs. She is in group training and starting a 1:1 training session this week. She is reactive on leash when seeing other dogs and needs help with leash training which we are working on. She is a high energy dog. She is house trained. She knows basic commands such as sit/ stay/ down.

Story
Ferris is very athletic, smart, and loving. We have had him since he was a puppy but having a child we noticed he started resource guarding our sons toys with his dog brother. He does good with older kids and female dogs but we think his best environment would be a only animal or female dog, older kid house with an active owner. He has tons of energy and needs training on a leash. We have a large backyard so we didn't take him on walks much. He loves to play fetch, doing tasks for you, and cuddling. He enjoys camping and spending time outside. He is kennel trained, dog door trained, and knows all the basic and some advanced tricks. We would like to keep in touch with whoever adopts him because we do consider Ferris family.

Story
Koa is a young 7 month old male ACD/husky with lots of playful energy. He is true to his husky genes, very vocal, a goofball and a chewer :) He is a big pup who doesn’t quite know his size, so he would do better around older kids as he tends to jump. He was adopted from the San Luis valley humane society and is neutered/ chipped and has gotten his vaccines/ deworming. He does great around other dogs, but has never been around cats. Due to unforeseen circumstances and a move, I am unfortunately unable to give him the attention and time he deserves.

Story
Meet Macks, a 5-year-old Cattle Dog/Shepherd mix with a heart full of potential and a loving spirit. Macks was surrendered to a high-kill shelter after her previous owner passed away, and she’s now looking for a new family to give her the love and stability she deserves. Initially anxious and a bit flighty, Macks requires some time to build trust. However, once she feels secure, she becomes an incredibly affectionate and well-behaved companion. Macks is not fond of other dogs or cats, so she would do best in a home where she can be the only pet. She will thrive in a household with middle school-aged children or older, or with adults who can provide her with the patience and care she needs to feel at ease. If you're looking for a loyal and loving dog who will become deeply attached to her new family, Macks is ready to bring her devotion and warmth into your home.

These pups are in Lakewood, Colorado too!

Story
Felix is a beautiful red aussie, approximately 7 to 10 years old. We are helping a veterinary find a home for Felix and his companion Minnie. Felix is aged at 7-10 years old, he is neutered and is more stoic and chill than Minnie, but he gets bouts of the zoomies that are hilarious to witness. Felix is stiff and dominant when meeting other dogs. He is not outright aggressive, by any means, but if a dog challenges him he will respond. Felix is quick to correct Minnie when she is over the top with him, but he is fair and quick in his corrections. Felix knows basic commands as well as a trick or two and loves to show off for treats! Felix is also slightly protective of his food and water -- we believe that is because he is diabetic. Felix is a controlled diabetic and has done VERY well on his insulin. This is a lifelong health issue and he will have to remain on insulin for life. Felix is crate trained and doesn't like to mess in his kennel. He has the walking schedule down and will let us know if we're late. Both dogs were found off highway I-40, just outside of Amarillo Texas. We have done everything possible to find their owners, with no luck, so now they are looking for a new home. I believe Minnie and Felix need to find a home together, preferably with no other dogs, or a very submissive female. We have no idea how they are around kids as this is a vet clinic, but they are both herding breeds and showcase most of the traits. Neither dog has EVER been mouthy towards staff or visitors. Mini is friendly with all people and has done well with controlled meets of other dogs. She did jump at one of our clinic cats, but after the cat slapped her, she decided that avoiding them all was the best course. Minnie is crate trained as she waits quietly until she has to use the bathroom and then she will let us know. Minnie does well on the leash and knows several basic commands. She LOVES her big brother Felix and is a prime example of the Australian Shepherd Breed, in her mannerisms, energy level and desire to be with people.  PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE TO SEE MORE PICS AND VIDEOS https://www.circle2rescue.com/available-pets/ If you would like to adopt, please complete an application  at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $350 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.

Story
Pretty as can be with a soft, thoughtful presence — say hello to Nita! New experiences still sparkle with a bit of mystery for this bright young girl: fresh sounds, unfamiliar paths, new people and pups. She prefers to take a moment to observe first, but she is curious and warms up quickly when she can approach on her own terms. Once she decides you’re part of her circle, her tail loosens into a happy rhythm and her trust unfurls in a lovely, steady way. Nita gains confidence from other dogs, so she’ll thrive in a home with a canine companion. She’s already nailed the essentials — easy leash walking, excellent house manners, knows how to use a door, and the cozy art of being a beloved family member. She’s smart, eager, and picking up new skills and confidence with surprising speed. In addition to another friendly dog, Nita will need a securely fenced yard and a family who gives her just a bit more time to ease into new environments. She doesn’t need anything extraordinary — just the space and patience to settle in and discover how good life can be. Nita’s story began on an Indian Reservation. After her owner passed away, she and several other dogs were rescued and given a fresh start. Now Nita is ready for her own forever home. She’s estimated to be around 10 months old and roughly 35 pounds. Likely an Australian Shepherd / Australian Cattle Dog mix — and, as with many rez dogs, almost certainly a beautiful blend of many hardy, healthy breeds.

Story
Hi, I’m Cedar. I used to be a rez dog but now I’ve been given a second chance at a safe, fun life. I’ve already discovered that this new life is pretty wonderful! I’m a kind, gentle girl searching for my best friend—my human. I’ll be polite with others, but my heart and focus will always be on you. I don’t need constant attention from everyone we meet, just a person (or people) to call my own. I’m fine sharing a home with other dogs, but it’s not a requirement—what I truly hope for is a human who wants me as their companion, someone who will see me as their best friend too. I get along with my foster siblings, but I’ll be honest—sometimes my foster brother tries to bug me into playing, and it gets a little annoying. I do best with other dogs who like outdoor adventures and don’t need constant playtime at home. I’m sensitive and eager to please, so gentle guidance works best with me. If you use kind words and positive reinforcement—praise, happy voices, claps, and “good girl!”—I’ll shine. I pick things up quickly, and encouragement builds my confidence. Even a simple “off” or “down” is all I need to listen right away—I never want to disappoint you. I’d love to go on walks, hikes, and adventures, or just be part of your daily life. The more time I get to spend with you, the happier I’ll be. I’m quiet, smart, and ready to learn how to fit into this new lifestyle. I’ll roll over for belly rubs, stretch out for a massage, or curl up at your feet. I’m crate-trained and do well there, though I won’t need it for long. And yes, I’ve got my own little quirks—but only the kind that will make you smile. If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle best friend who will love you with her whole heart, I’m right here waiting. Best guess on my age is about 1.5 years and I'm 35 to 40 pounds. Love, Cedar   **** Cedar is out of town until Dec 1st.  If you would like to adopt, please complete an application  at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $325 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   ##2486146##
