Story
I rescued Hilda on the island on Maui, where I lived for the last 3.5 years. I found her in the woods with 2 puppies, coincidentally while I was looking for my other dog that ran away (we found her too!). Hilda was instantly the sweetest, most loving girl. I ended up keeping her and finding my other dog. Unfortunately, in October 2023 we made the difficult decision to leave Maui after the August 2023 wildfire. Since then, I have struggled financially and my other dog is experiencing some behavioral issues that are making life very difficult for the 3 of us. Hilda is the most loving lady and I just want to find her the home where she gets the love and attention she deserves. I would love to find Hilda a home where we could still see her for puppy play dates, and I could even provide free dog sitting. Hilda is reactive with other dogs, but after a couple of Introductions she loves to play! No cats, but other dog homes are an option!

These pups are in Denver, Colorado too!

Story
Meet Penny – Your Perfect Adventure Buddy! Penny is a happy and spirited pup who loves nothing more than exploring the great outdoors! She’s always up for long walks and hikes, with endless energy to accompany you on all your adventures. At the same time, Penny knows how to enjoy the simple pleasures of life—she’s just as content relaxing on a comfy bed, quietly hanging out with her people. Affectionate and playful, Penny's favorite things include belly rubs, back scratches, and occasionally howling along with her humans for some fun. She’s incredibly polite when it comes to food—while she’ll happily accept a tasty treat (like a piece of steak!), she never begs or whines during mealtime. Completely potty trained, Penny is well-mannered indoors and hasn’t had a single accident in her foster home. She prefers peaceful hikes and walks in quieter areas since she can get a little anxious when there’s a lot of dog activity around her. With gentle guidance, Penny stays calm and sweet, but leash anxiety can cause her to seem a bit defensive. Fireworks and loud noises do make Penny uneasy, so she may need extra comfort during holidays. Attention and petting, along with calming supplements, help her feel safe during those times. Overall, Penny is a loyal, polite, and loving girl looking for a forever home where she can share her love for the outdoors and her gentle, loyal heart. If you’re searching for an affectionate companion with a love for adventure, Penny could be your perfect match! Fill out an application on our website to meet Penny today!
