Thornton, CO

Details
Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Winston is 14 months old. He is very loving once he gets comfortable with you. With him being a herding breed he does try and herd people by nipping at their ankles. He needs someone with plenty of time and energy to give him the exercise he needs. He is leash aggressive and would need someone who has time to train or get him trained. He appears to have anxiety and doesn’t do well in a kennel for too long. He hasn’t been around kids or other animals besides dogs. Has been to doggy daycare and did well there. Loves to snuggle up when it is time for bed.

Baxter

Australian Shepherd

Male, Adult
Broomfield, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Baxter has a joyful, wiggly personality and loves being outside. Walks? Yes please. Hiking? Even better. If you toss a toy he'll chase it, but he prefer you chase him around the yard. He's fun and loves to wrestle with bones or rope toys. Inside the home Baxter is low maintenance. He enjoys having his own space, relaxing on his bed, and hanging out nearby while you unwind. He's fully potty trained, up to date on vaccines, neutered, and completed e-collar training- including reliable off-leash skills and a great heel. Who Baxter is looking for Baxter thrives in calm predictable environments, which means he's not a match for homes with young kids. His current family loves him deeply, and re-homing Baxter comes from wanting him to live his happiest, least-stressful life. Baxter is a fantastic fit for - An adults-only or older-kids home - Someone who loves walks, exploring, or weekend adventures - A house with a yard where he can romp - Homes with cats (he does great with them!)

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
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 I'm a good fit for him. He needs a lot of attention- he sometimes chews things he shouldn't, like a book the other day. He is crate trained and he likes to just lay in it when I'm at home. 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 barks at other dogs and people on the walk - I think he just wants to investigate and see everyone. He's never bitten anyone and he generally loves meeting new people. 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.

Story
Swiftie is a medium-sized Aussie mix with a gentle heart and a soft, soulful presence. She may start out a bit shy, but give her a moment — and a calm, patient approach — and you’ll see her blossom into the sweetest, most loyal companion. This lovely girl gets along wonderfully with other dogs and seems to take comfort in their company. She’s still learning that people are safe, but she warms up quickly when you move slowly and let her come to you. Once she trusts you, she’ll stick close, listen beautifully, and soak up all the kindness you offer. Swiftie is fully potty-trained, sleeps soundly through the night, and has shown she can be trusted without a crate, both overnight and when left alone. She’s still figuring out stairs (they’re suspicious!) but she’s smart, eager to please, and learns fast with a little encouragement and cheerleading. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate dog who will reward your patience with quiet devotion, Swiftie might just be your perfect match. She’s ready for a home that’s loving, steady, and excited to help her continue growing in confidence. Give Swiftie the safe, happy life she deserves — she’s so ready to meet her person.  ##2599246##

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##

Story
Hello, I'm Ronan Ronan, is a loving, cuddly, shy in new situations guy who is looking for a human that will be patient as he adjust to new situations who will then blossom into the most loyal companion. Ronan is great in his kennel at the events. He doesn’t bark and waits perfectly for volunteers to take him for walks. He is around 30 lbs and will not get any bigger.  He loves going for walks but still a little nervous in new surroundings. I am a medium to high energy guy, but also love to be held and cuddled.    Ronan is good with other dogs and still trying to figure out the cats, but knows to leave them alone with told.  He is working on his manners and may jump when excited, so would need to be watched around younger children. If you’re ready for unconditional love, and a lifetime of adventures come meet Ronan and find your new best friend! ##2461435##

Story
My name is Summer and I haven’t met a person or another dog that I don’t love. My foster mom tells me I’m a good girl all the time because I do my business outside and mostly listen when she gives me commands. I’m still trying to remember to slow down when we walk together but that’s a tough one because I’m just so happy to outside. I love to play fetch, frisbee, and chase outside. I’m a great hiking partner and then I’m up for a great cuddle session.  I will do best in an active house where I have a yard to play in or with someone who is committed to take me on walks. I also get to go to the dog park to get out some energy. My foster mom says the song, ain’t nothin gonna break my stride, is always playing in my head. No one can rain on my parade. I’m excited to meet you and find my forever home. ##2554687##
