Story
Arizona is a 4.5 year old Akita Mix that was transferred to rescue from a local shelter with her newborn puppies. After raising her puppies, who have all been adopted, Arizona has settled into a happy life and routine with her foster and is a friendly, healthy adult dog. She's been with us for more than seven months, which is surprising given that she is housebroken and gets along with people, other dogs, and even cats. We believe that prior to rescue, Arizona spent a lot of time outside and can sometimes be more comfortable lounging in the backyard than in the house. She's also become very attached to her foster dad (as Akitas tend to do) and will require an adoptive household that understands there will be a transition period before she is comfortable with her new family, surroundings, and routine. Arizona can present with separation anxiety, which includes pacing and verbalizing her displeasure, however with time and consistency, these behaviors have been eliminated in her foster home. We'd love to see Arizona thrive in a home that knows the breed and is truly committed to the time and energy required to help a rescue dog settle into a new and better life. Whether you work from home, are active and like to take your canine pals along, or own property where she can explore, we'd encourage you to consider making Arizona a member of your family. Arizona is spayed, fully vaccinated, heartworm tested negative, microchipped with registration, wormed, and has had entropion correction surgery on her left eye. Her adoption fee is $350.

Story
Described as a `gentle giant` by her new friends here, Akira is known for her demure demeanor and would be an excellent addition to any household. She'd like to meet any dogs first, since she's a bit skittish of them these days, but she's been said to adore children! Why not drop by and see how she'd fit in your life?August 19, 2024, 4:38 pm

Loki

Akita

Male, Adult
Centennial, CO
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Loki is a 2 year old Akita we bought as a puppy. He is crate trained and went through a 3 week board and train program that helped immensely but he still needs more work with his mannerisms. He is collar trained and responds well to corrections. He gets very excited and has a lot of energy. He is a lover and protective of his family. Loki does well with our cats and other dogs for the most part but he does have an alpha personality type so if you have other alpha dog(s) he probably would not be a good fit. He needs someone willing to put in the work with him. Take him on walks, play with him, and cuddle with him.

HAPPY

Husky

Male, 4 yrs 3 mos
Westminster, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Happy is your typical Husky: an energetic, friendly, smart, extroverted goofball in a large package. Happy is great getting into a harness and leash, he does pull when walking but is very easily redirected. We don’t think Happy was crated in his previous life so crate training will be an ongoing learning process for him- he seems to do better in a travel crate rather than a wire kennel. Happy is extremely friendly and loves playing with other dogs. He knows how to sit, stay and paw. As Happy learns what life is like out of the shelter, including food coming on a regular basis, he gets more trusting everyday.  ##2078429##

Story
Name: Forrest Male Age: 7+ (unsure) DOB: was a rescue Got him from a shelter in Durango, CO Forrest is such a good boy, and we truly hate to rehome him but unfortunately due to some unfortunate life events/changes we don’t have any other choice. Forrest is a fluffy, friendly, laid back, cold weather loving boy! He doesn’t require much attention, and actually prefers you not bother him unless HE wants the attention. He’s very easy going unlike most huskies he doesn’t require you run 5 miles in order to get his energy out, although he obviously benefits from any exercise. He loves walks, hikes, and being outside in any capacity.
