Story
I have tried so hard not to have to rehome her. My husband is extremely allergic to her, he’s tried the allergy shots, I have an automatic vacuum and I get her deshedded. This is the last thing I want to do but I can’t hardly pet her and she has to stay downstairs with my mom. She deserves more and I want to find her a lovely home so all parties are happy. She is super sweet dog, loves walks, and is well behaved. Please consider adopting her. She’ll be an addition to your family and she will love you!

Story
Mona is four years old. Mona the red is curious, smart, loving and easy going. She is a big girl about 83 lbs. Mona loves to use her pointy nose to explore smells. I got her and her sister from family in Texas. Mona is a big lap dog, she loves her walks but will lay down for pets. I have two Aussies sisters from the same litter. I would consider them staying together or separate under the right circumstances. I am also open to a foster situation until I get moved. I want Mona to have a stable home, she tolerates the cats but has some food guarding issues with the cats.She has never hurt them but she has chased them. (She holds a grudge for eating her food while she was in her kennel.) Mona is crate trained. Mona is good with kids but a little clueless about her size. She loves babies! Mona wants to be someone’s fur baby.

Story
Meet Blossom the almost perfect dog. She is a 3 yr old Aussie Doodle who is house trained, will go into a crate, and walks pretty good on a leash. She loves to play in the snow. She is a beauty to look at and is medium in size. Blossom is a very shy dog and is afraid of men. She needs an experienced shy dog adopter, preferably in an all woman household. She needs a home with older or no kids, and no small children due to her skittishness. A calm environment is also needed without a lot of visitors. Give her the best gift of the holidays with a forever home. She is waiting in Parker.

Story
This loving little guy needs to find the right forever home. He is a sweetie and loves to cuddle and have his belly rubbed. He is a mini Aussie cardigan corgi mix, he is approximately 20 lbs and up to date on all his vaccinations, and was neutered on 10/9/25. Rex is high energy. He does great at home and with other dogs, but is reactive with strangers. He takes time to warm up to new people, but can when he is given the chance to approach on his own. He is 11 months old and would do best with someone who is experienced with training reactive dogs. He needs a yard for him to play in, and a person or people who have the ability to exercise him every day. He would love to have a runner to run with. He would be best in a home without children. He would also love to have another young dog to play with. He is untested with cats. He is vocal but settles well when he’s tired. He is crate trained and knows a few basic commands like sit and lie down. He is very very smart and food driven.

This playful, water-loving goofball is as sweet as she is spirited — the perfect blend of adventure buddy, best friend, and loyal companion. Skipper was sadly surrendered when her previous owner no longer had time for a dog, but she’s ready to set sail toward a brighter future with a family who will make time to love, spoil, and cherish her for once and for all. This housetrained, well-mannered girl is good with kids and other dogs, making her a perfect fit for an active family. She’s a total social butterfly who loves making new dog friends and would thrive in a home with other pups to play with. Skipper’s happiest when she’s near the water — she loves splashing in pools, chasing the water hose, and would absolutely adore having her very own kiddie pool or lake to explore. 💦 She’s treat motivated, eager to please, and knows some basic obedience, making her a smart, fun companion who’s always ready for the next adventure. Whether she’s exploring rivers, hiking trails, or just rolling around with her friends in the backyard, Skipper’s joy for life is contagious. She’s ready to trade her lonely days for a life full of love, laughter, and maybe a few muddy paw prints along the way. With her happy heart and playful spirit, Skipper is ready to chart a new course — straight into her forever home. ⚓🐾💛 Interested in this furry companion?

Story
Meet Reggie!   Reggie is a lovable 10-year-old dog weighing in at 55 pounds, and he’s looking for his forever family! He adores being around his people and loves to please, making him a delight to have at home!     Personality:   Reggie is the perfect mix of playful and relaxed. Whether you want to go for a walk or hike or just spend the day lounging around, he’s up for it! His favorite trick is playing hide and seek for treats around the house, and he’s well trained, making him an excellent companion.     Home Life:   Reggie is great with people and has a part border collie heritage, which means he’s intelligent and eager to engage! However, he can see small children as “sheep” and may herd or nip at them when they get too excited, so he’d do best in a home with older kids or no kids at all. He doesn’t interact well with other dogs, so he’s looking for a family who can give him all the love and attention he deserves! If you’re ready for a loving companion who fits into either an active or laid-back lifestyle, Reggie could be your perfect match! July 8, 2025, 4:33 pm

Story
Lilo and Stitch are sweet, playful, 5 month old mixed breed puppies. Their father looked like a border collie/akita mix and their mother was a 35 lb, mixed breed dog. They were surrendered to us as an accidental litter, from Arizona. These guys had a very hard start to life, and have come a very long way during their time in foster. They were very, very shy when we first got them, and had not been socialized. Thanks to our foster team and about 2 months of time, they have now caught up on socialization and now love attention. They are working on potty training, and are quiet in their kennels. Lilo and Stitch will need families willing to introduce them to new things and continue working on socialization, since some things are still new to them. They love other dogs, and are good with cats. They are spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. Lilo and Stitch will be adopted out separately. If interested in adopting, please fill out the application at the following link: https://www.wildwestpetrescue.org/adopt
