Story
Winston is a 14 month Mini Aussie with a big heart and even bigger potential. He has grown into a smart, affectionate, and energetic young dog. Winston is very active and thrives with regular exercise and mental stimulation. Due to a demanding work schedule, we are unable to give him the time and activity level he truly deserves, which is why we are making the difficult decision to find him a new home where he can flourish. He gets along great with other dogs and would likely enjoy having a canine friend. Winston knows all his basic commands and even knows how to shake paw. He is eager to please and very intelligent, making him a great candidate for continued training. Winston can be a bit anxious on leash and would benefit from training classes and a confident, patient owner who can help build his confidence. With guidance and consistency, he has all the tools to become a wonderful family companion. Please apply if you are interest and we can schedule a meet up!

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.

Australian Shepherd Pit Bull Terrier

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Cider and her siblings came from a New Mexico shelter who thought their mom might be a corgi mix. DNA results show half herding breeds and about half terrier.  She is about 10 weeks old and 7lbs, so we believe she will be small to medium when full grown. Cider has beautiful green eyes. She looks to her siblings and other dogs in the home for reassurance when meeting new people or experiencing new things. But she is quick to warm up and very affectionate. Cider is working on her potty training, and does well sleeping in a pen at night. She likes to invite her siblings to play by bouncing up to them with both paws in the air. She would love to have another dog in her forever home. If you’re interested in meeting Cider the first step is to complete our meet and greet application at https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms We require the application, home and reference check, and meet with everyone in the home.  She will be spayed, microchipped, and up to date on age appropriate vaccines.  Her adoption fee is $400, and we are not adopting outside of Colorado.December 26, 2025, 2:57 pm

Story
Name: Ted Breed: Toy Australian Shepherd Sex: Neutered Male Age: 1 year 6 months Weight: 21 lbs Needs Experienced Adopter, We are seeking a foster-to-adopt home for Ted, someone experienced with dogs who have fear-based reactivity and willing to continue working on his behavior with patience, structure, and training support through PawsCo. Good with dogs? Ted may do best as an only dog, as he can be protective of his food and may feel overwhelmed sharing space. Good with cats? No. Good with kids? No. Energy Level: Medium. Ted loves to romp around, explore the backyard, and play with toys. Once his play needs are met, he settles nicely and enjoys relaxing. Behavioral Needs: Ted spent most of his early life outdoors and is still learning how to be a comfortable indoor companion. He’s working on feeling safe, managing his stranger danger, and sharing resources. Because he struggles with being left alone, he will need a home where someone is home often or works from home. Ted is significantly undersocialized and requires very slow, structured introductions to new people and experiences. Continued professional training will be important for his success. About Ted: Ted is a silly little rascal with a big heart who thrives on fun, exploration, and connection. He’s looking for a patient, committed adopter who can help grow his confidence through gentle guidance, consistent training, and thoughtful socialization. Ted is easily frightened by loud noises, barking dogs, and unfamiliar people, but with love and support, he can learn that the world is safe. Despite his rocky start, he is ready to blossom and share his playful, curious, sweet puppy personality with the right person. Please learn more about the adoption process and fill out an application at www.pawsco.org/adopt/adoption-process. You can also contact my friends at PawsCo at adopt@pawscoadoptions.org if you have questions. I look forward to meeting you!

Story
Meet Ronda!Ronda is a sweet, playful gal who may be a little shy at first—but give her a few days, and she’ll blossom into your new best friend. She’s an active pup who loves to run around and is learning to play fetch (though sometimes she gets so excited she forgets to bring the toy back!). Ronda is adjusting wonderfully to life outside the shelter. She’s mostly potty trained and will let you know when she needs to go out, but if she can’t hold it, she’ll use potty pads. She gets so excited to play outside that she sometimes needs a gentle reminder that it’s also potty time. Walks are still a little intimidating for her, but with patience and encouragement, she’s learning that they can be fun. Ronda is a Kelpie mix, though on the smaller side—she may even have some Chihuahua in her. No matter her mix, she’s a lovable, playful companion who is eager to bond with her forever family. She would do best in a home without young children. Slow introductions to other dogs are best, and while she’s still figuring out cats, she knows to leave them alone when told. Ronda can’t wait to meet her perfect match. Come see her at an adoption event—she just might steal your heart! ##2461439##
