Story
Dilly is a sweet 3 and a half year old boy! He loves all people, does well with smaller dogs, and he loves sitting on laps! Dilly is about 15 lbs, and has a very gentle temperament. He loves lots of attention, and loves to play fetch. Dilly is a little nervous around vets and groomers, but will still go to greet them with his belly on the floor and tail wags. He is not at all aggressive, and has never snapped or bitten other dogs or people. Dilly loves giving kisses, eating close by his people, and any and all squeaky toys! He is a lap dog! Dilly recently lost a tooth unexpectedly, and was diagnosed with periodontal disease. He had a tooth cleaning and several extractions afterwards. Dilly needs continued dental care, and the vet recommended annual cleanings to keep up with his periodontal disease. My family loves him so much, but we are unable to afford his ongoing medical treatments. We are hoping to find him a new home that can keep him more comfortable than we are able to.

Story
Meet Louis, a fun-loving and energetic two-year-old American Bully from Golden, CO, who’s ready to bring endless joy and affection to his next family. With his sleek black-and-white coat and playful personality, Louis is the perfect mix of charm and enthusiasm, always eager to be at the center of the action—or snuggled up for cuddles after a day of fun! Louis is a social butterfly who thrives around people, kids, other dogs, and even cats. He’s naturally friendly and leans toward the submissive side with other dogs, making him a great playmate in multi-pet households. Whether he’s romping around the yard, chasing after his favorite Kong toy, or engaging in a lively game of fetch, Louis is always ready to burn off his high energy! Thanks to his board-and-train experience, Louis is well-mannered and responds to commands like sit, stay, place, crate, down, and no. He’s house-trained, crate-trained, and up-to-date on vaccinations, making him fully prepared to settle into his new home.

Story
Our two sweet dogs (Lilly who is a female, 10 years old and simba who is a male, 11 years old) have been with us since they were 11 weeks old. We have tried our best to keep them for as long as possible. However, we simply do not have enough time to take care of our beloved dogs anymore. With a newborn and our older kids activities we realized our dogs are just not getting the attention that they deserve. They deserve so much better and they will be so happy to be with anyone who is willing to give them attention. They are both soooo sweet and they are crate trained (in fact they’re much happier in their crates for sleeping). They don’t need long walks and if you have a small yard that’s all they need. They will need regular grooming and they don’t shed. They are all up to date with their shots.
