Story
This beauty is Lexi! She is an approximately 1-year-old, 50-pound stunner with the kind of looks that garner compliments from strangers and passersby. Her gorgeous tri-colored coat and striking blue eyes hint at some Australian Shepherd in her mix — but Lexi is even better than a purebred. She’s a rez dog, made up of many breeds, which often means healthier, sturdier, and wonderfully well-balanced genetics.  Lexi came to us from the Navajo Nation, where she lived alongside many different dogs. She is friendly and social with other dogs and understands how to coexist peacefully in a pack. Because her world has been a bit limited so far, Lexi can be shy in new situations, but don’t mistake that for a lack of love. She has been well cared for and shows it through her sweet, gentle, and devoted nature. Once she feels safe, her affection quietly shines through. She’ll benefit from a patient, encouraging home willing to help her: Build confidence in new environments Continue learning and refining her leash skills ‍ Discover all the good things life has to offer Lexi is the kind of dog who bonds deeply with her people and blossoms with kindness and consistency. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with beauty, heart, and so much potential, Lexi may be the one you’ve been waiting for   Adopt Lexi and give this special girl the chance to fully shine. If you would like to adopt please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $350 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   ##2622941##

Story
Meet Angel CakeHer story begins in a grocery store parking lot on the reservation, where her family brought the entire litter in hopes of giving the puppies away. Thankfully, a compassionate good Samaritan stepped in, gathered all the babies, and reached out to the rescue for help. While the family would not give us mama, we did secure a spay appointment so she won’t have to go through another litter. Because of the kindness and quick action of a stranger, Angel Cake is now safe, thriving, and ready to begin her own bright future. Angel Cake's Personality & Progress Confident and outgoing: Angel Cake and her siblings are a joyful, social bunch—there isn’t a shy pup in this litter. Wellcaredfor beginnings: Their original family clearly loved them; they arrived fat, happy, and wonderfully playful. Smart as can be: She already follows her foster mom in and out for potty breaks and comes when she’s called. Great crate habits: At night, she sleeps soundly with her siblings in their comfy wire crate. Carride approved: She’s been on a few rides and handles the car like a pro. Brave and full of zest: Angel Cake approaches life with enthusiasm, curiosity, and a bold little spirit. Why You’ll Love Her Angel Cake is the kind of puppy who makes every day feel a little brighter. She’s playful, peopleoriented, and wonderfully eager to learn. Her confidence and intelligence shine through in everything she does—from trotting after her foster mom to mastering new routines with ease. Her estimated birthday is November 27, 2025, though we don’t know the exact date. Her mom looks to be an Australian Shepherd mix so we think the puppies are Australian Shepherd / Australian Cattle Dog and several other rez breeds.

Meet Ole Blue Eyes — Your Future Snuggle Champion! If your love language is cuddling, congratulations… you just found your soulmate.

He adores his people and is happiest when he’s right there with you, soaking up all the love (and giving it right back). But don’t let the snuggly exterior fool you — this boy is smart as can be. Blue Eyes already follows his foster mom in and out for potty breaks and comes when he’s called like a little pro. He’s picking up routines quickly and clearly loves learning and being a good boy. At night, he sleeps peacefully with his siblings in their comfy wire crate, showing off his crate manners.Blue Eyes is playful, affectionate, people-oriented, and wonderfully eager to please — the kind of puppy who makes every day feel warmer, brighter, and a whole lot sweeter. His estimated birthday is November 27, 2025.  His mama appears to be an Australian Shepherd mix, so we believe the puppies are a blend of Australian Shepherd, Australian Cattle Dog, and other rez-dog magic, giving him that perfect mix of brains, heart, and charm.

Story
Jameson was adopted from Denver Animal Shelter when he was about 2 months old. He has been with me 10 months. He has a lot of energy, and I don't think we are a good fit. He needs a lot of attention and play space. He is crate trained and he likes to just lay in it to relax. Recently I've been leaving him out of the crate while I'm gone and he has done pretty well. Jameson needs a person who can get him out of the house more. He uses a gentle leader for walks and pulls a little. He generally loves meeting new people - he loves going to the brewery. He knows people around the neighborhood who he likes to say hi to for treats. He's a lover and likes to snuggle on the couch. He really just needs a bit more attention than I can give.

Name: Carmella Breed: Border Collie Sex: Female Age: 2 year old Weight: 45 lbs. Carmella has some behavioral needs, and she's available for adoption or through a foster-to-adopt arrangement. Good with dogs? Carmella will need a slow introduction to other dogs Good with cats? No Good with kids? Not tested but based on her behavior with meeting new people we would recommend she go to a kid free home. Energy level: High. Carmella is a driven Border Collie with a strong need for mental stimulation. She would thrive in a home where she has a job to do—bonus points if her adopter is interested in helping her learn how to herd! With her high energy and working-dog instincts, Carmella would love nothing more than a purpose-filled life where she can stay active and engaged. Animal Characteristics: Carmella is a beautiful, sensitive soul searching for someone special to help her shine. This shy girl hasn’t had the easiest start, and she’s still learning to trust the world around her. When meeting new people, Carmella can be fearful— but with patience, structure, and love, she begins to open up. Her ideal home will be with an experienced, compassionate adopter committed to continuing her training and providing slow, gentle introductions to new people and situations. Carmella isn’t the kind of dog who will greet you with tail wags and kisses on day one — but if you give her time and understanding, you’ll earn the love of a truly loyal companion. Please learn more about the adoption process and fill out an application at www.pawsco.org/adopt/adoption-process. I look forward to meeting you!
