Story
Charlie is a sweet and tough girl who loves to hike and cuddle! She is healthy and active for her age and keeps up with 2 year old dogs on hike despite being 10. She is kind to our kitten and has been with her “sister” Newfoundland for the past 7 years. They would love to stay together if possible but ultimately Charlie needs a home where she can hike and share her sweet cuddles. She does counter surf but other than that she is really a great dog! I’m traveling for work 2-3 trips per month and can’t stand to watch her stuck in the house not getting the Colorado adventures she loves!

Story
Meet Noodle! Noodle is a very special little guy who was found as a stray and taken to a local shelter. Noodle is blind and has neurological issues, most likely cerebellar hypoplasia which impacts his motor skills. Despite all this Noodle loves to cruise around just as much as he loves to cuddle. Noodle needs a calm, quiet home preferably with a family that is experienced with blind dogs. Noodle also experiences idiopathic aggression and should not go to a home with small children. Noodle will need to be fostered prior to adoption to make sure it is a good fit.

Story
Meet Jake! Jake is a sweet older guy with lots of love to give! He was abandoned on a doorstep in a dirty crate, and taken to a local shelter before being transferred to Gray Muzzle Society. Jake does well with cats and dogs, but is leash reactive so would be better suited to a house with a yard. Jake is working with a trainer and doing better walking on a leash. Jake does well with a doggy door, but needs patience with house training when he first adjusts to new places. We performed a dental, and are working on helping Jake lose weight, but he's otherwise an active, healthy older dog!
