MEDICAL CASES

Sadie is our most recent medical case and she has us wrapped around her paw.  Such a sweet girl who was hit by a car and had no one step up to care for her.  We scooped her up and brought her to Colorado where she recently had surgery to repair her injuries.  Stay tuned as we give updates on her progress!

Dogs of the week!

Andy, 2 years, Male, Great Dane/Anatolian Shepherd X, Good w/Large Playful dogs & older Kids, $350, Windsor
Our man Andy is still looking for his forever home! He is a 2 yo Great Dane/Anatolian Shepherd mix that came to us from California! Andy is house trained and has very good manners in the house! However, he will need a home that can provide him with adequate training and exercise! He does great with other dogs but would do best with another dog that his around his size and playful! Andy is suitable for a home with older kids as he doesn’t know his size! He would love a home with a big back yard and privacy fence where he can play with his toys and lay around in a kiddie pool all day! He is currently located in Windsor and his adoption fee is 350 dollars.
Dillon, 5 years, Male, Great Dane/Pitbull X, Good w/Dogs & Older Kids, (NO CATS), $350, CO Springs
Meet Dillon! This poor soul was a stray in Texas for two whole years and finally caught by another rescue because he had a terrible infection in his jaw. While we were able to treat his infection, it took much longer to coax him out of his shell. He loves dogs and is very dog friendly, but is NOT cat friendly. He is house trained and crate trained! We feel his ideal home will be a quiet one with another calm dog to help him learn how to be a pack member and dog. Dillon needs a patient and loving family, while he learns to receive and show affection. He’s a sweet boy who will sit next to you and let you rub his belly all day! Dillon is located in Colorado Springs and his adoption fee is 350 dollars.
Stitch, 4.5 years, Male, Husky X, $350, Windsor
Stitch is a Husky through and through! He is 4.5 years old, independent, and he enjoys hanging out in the sun. Stitch's playful side comes out when there is a tennis ball around, he loves playing keep away and chasing the ball around! Stitch is looking for a home with a fenced yard and one without other dogs and kids. He is currently located in Windsor and his adoption fee is 350 dollars
Hulk, 4 years, Male, Great Dane, $500, Arvada
Hubba hubba!!! ? This amazingly handsome boy is named Hulk! We’ve learned that he’s best with a no-kiddo household as the kids make him a bit nervous. We’re looking for an experienced Dane owner who wants a 150 lb shadow. Once he’s comfortable with you, all he wants to do is play and snuggle; he is an incredibly affectionate boy. He's approximately 4 years old but has all the energy of a gigantic puppy. Hulk was also heart worm positive, but just completed his treatment for it. While he is dog friendly (and a very playful 150 lbs), he'd probably be best as the only dog in the house. Typical for his breed, he is a very heavy leaner! He isn’t sure yet if he is comfortable with cats running around but he did well with meeting them while they were crated. His ideal adopter will be comfortable being the alpha of the pack and comfortable with a bit of a ‘space-invader’! He will need some help working on separation anxiety so an adopter home often will be a must. He’s soaking up as much love and pack-time as possible. This big boy will also need a home with a 6' fence! He loves the couch, loves pillows, and LOVES waking his foster dad up in the morning! Hulk is located in Arvada and his adoption fee is 500 dollars.
Alika, 3 years, Female, Shepherd X, Good w/Dogs, $350, Severance
Alika is a 3 year old Shepherd mix. She’s an energetic, loving, and sweet dog! She loves to lay around with her family but also enjoys going on walks and playing with her foster siblings. She needs proper introductions to warm up to people and other dogs. She’s not good with cats, so no cats in her future home. She’s house trained and knows basic commands. Alika’s ideal home would be patient enough to ease her out of her shell and into her new role as a family member! Alika is located in Severance and her adoption fee is 350 dollars.
Blake, 1 year, Male, Chihuahua X, Good w/Dogs, $400, Greeley
Hi! I'm Blake, a 1ish year old Chihuahua mix and I'm looking for a super special human that will understand how scared I am of people and have patience with me while I learn to trust. I came from a situation where I didn't get to see many people but when I did, my experiences weren't very positive. I love my crate, I am happy to potty in the right places, and I like other dogs, but I don't know what it's like to be a dog who is loved by humans. I will let my foster mom pick me up, but I don't understand why she wants to. Nobody ever picked me up before she did. Can you teach me about the good life and how wonderful humans can be? I’m currently in Greeley and my adoption fee is 400 dollars.
Debbie, 10 years, Female, Good w/Dogs, Kids & Cats, $300, Ft Collins,
If people took spaying and neutering their pets seriously, Debbie wouldn’t have found herself pregnant at 10 years old. She’s finally done being a doting parent and is ready for her own forever after. A Chihuahua mix, and working on house training, she’s dog, cat and kid friendly! She’d make a perfect addition to any family! Debbie is located in Fort Collins and her adoption fee is 300 dollars.
Ginger, 3-4 years, Female, Rhodesian Ridgeback X, $350, Windsor
Ginger is a special girl whose broken heart needs some love to help her heal. We aren't sure why she is broken but her eyes say it all. Our volunteers have seen glimpses of her happy self and we can't wait to see her shine. Ginger is a 3-4 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback who would enjoy a quiet and mellow home. She seems to prefer being the only dog but could share her family with another mellow companion. Ginger recently received her heartworm injections and is doing well! She is currently located in Windsor and her adoption fee is 350 dollars.
Hugo, 8 years, Male, Pitbull X, Good w/Smaller Dogs, $350, Eaton
Hugo is a lovable goofy 8 year old Pittie X. He is thriving in his foster home. He’s indifferent with the resident cat and he does get a little nervous around the resident beagle. Hugo would love to be the center of attention with lots of couch time. He cares more about belly rubs and scratches then playing. He is vision impaired (has eye drops 2x daily for severe dry eyes)so loud noises and big dogs scare him. His ideal home would be quiet with someone home most of the time. He is kennel trained but would be good to be free roam and house trained. If you are looking for the perfect office dog or couch buddy, Hugo is your man. He is located in Eaton and his adoption fee is 350 dollars
Odin, 6-7 years, Male, Husky/Pittie/Leonberger X , Good w/Submissive Dogs & Older Kids, $350, Boulder
Odin is a gorgeous Husky/Pittie/Leonberger mix. He is 6-7 years old and is a big boy at 110 pounds. He is generally a laid-back dog, but does have spurts of energy and still likes to play and romp around. Odin had a dog brother in his previous home, and they got along well. His current foster family observes that he likes to be the alpha dog. He is not cat friendly and is stressed by young children, but older children would likely be fine. He is fully house-trained and knows basic commands! Odin is located in Boulder and his adoption fee is 350 dollars.
