Story
Penny gets along great with kids and other dogs. She warms up to people quickly and she is very smart. Penny loves going on walks seeing all the people. She also likes to play in the pool in our play yard. Penny`s personality is to always play. If you would like to meet Penny, call the LPCHS front desk or walk-in today to schedule an appointment! Penny`s review from one of our wonderful volunteers:`Penny was very enthusiastic to get out of the kennel. She greeted the other dogs with some barks and tail wags. She really wanted to play, but the other dogs didn`t feel comfortable enough to play with her until the halfway point of our walk. At that point, all of the dogs were more relaxed, so they easily played with one another. She listened to commands when her name was called. She was very excited to be out in nature, and she was tired enough by the end of our walk that she fell asleep in the back of my car on the ride back to the shelter. She pulled a bit, especially at first when she was full of energy, but overall, she was a very well-behaved pup.`

Story
From Doko`s foster:Doko is an energetic, fun, and loving pup. His soft fur is wonderful to pet and he loves the attention. He learns and follows routines quickly. He is food-motivated when learning anything. He needs to go out to poop and then pee first thing in the morning. He is full of energy first thing in the morning, as in 0 to 100. He wants to play and get attention from his human and furry friends. Doko is a speedy eater with just a regular food bowl so having alternative ways to slow him down is helpful. He`s smart and can quickly figure out slow-feeding puzzles(rolled towel, kong-style cone, etc) but enjoys finding his food this way. He will resource guard with food and will steal other dogs` treats if not in active training mode. he will also commandeer toys and beds.Doko drinks a lot of water and pees a lot. (he also poops a lot). He always needs to pee right after a good sleep, wrestling, or playing. He is not completely potty trained so it is important to notice and take him out frequently. He is a sloppy drinker and leaves water everywhere as he walks away from the bowl.When he is excited to see people, he will jump up a lot. We were working on this but his puppy energy takes over. He knows the commands sit, down, come, and touch but is still learning. He is working on `leave it.` In about a day, he learned to stay out of the kitchen (and stay at the doorway). He will easily go into his crate if led that way or it is part of a learned routine like bedtime. He loves to chew on soft toys, hard toys, and anything! Watch your slippers and shoes!He loves to play with tennis balls (fetch only happens once or twice), mainly gathering them and chewing on them. He can get and run with 2 balls in his mouth and is trying for a 3rd. He likes being chased with the balls. Our dog and Doko would run around the yard after each other with the balls for many loops. Doko also loves to pick up sticks and unfortunately likes to chew them. Doko and our dog liked to wrestle and it always seemed to go on forever. His little gator teeth loved to go after Knox`s lanky legs. He really didn`t understand that he shouldn`t hang outside in the severe cold... many times I had to lure him inside with a treat because he was so focused on his ball. Finally, we have nicknamed Doko, `Velcro`, as he loves to stick close to the human of choice. In the evening, everywhere my husband went, Doko went and was und

Story
`We had the students from Escalante Middle School in Ms. Fischer’s ELD class come and meet Elton. Then, they wrote a letter about our sweet boy and drew a wonderful picture of him.`Did you know that Elton is a good boy? Elton is a brown and white large dog at The La Plata County Humane Society. In my opinion, you should adopt this dog because:1) He listens, for example, when you give a command he does it.2) He is calm, for example, when there are a lot of people he stays calm.3) He is curious, for example, he walks around the room smelling things calmly.Thank you, Escalante Middle School, for coming to see me! Elton

Story
Come visit with Koda!  This pocket pittie is absolutely adorable.2 years oldApprox 40 lbsNeutered male He will need to learn some house manners most likely but does know how to sit! He is also crate trained and loves everyone Koda and Puka, despite having never met before, have formed an extraordinary bond that speaks volumes about their resilience and spirit.  They narrowly escaped a tragic fate at an Arkansas shelter, where they were just hours away from being euthanized. These two remarkable dogs are not only affectionate and friendly but also get along well with cats, showcasing their gentle nature. It is heartbreaking to think that they were almost lost simply because someone chose to abandon them. The impact these dogs have had on everyone they’ve encountered is profound, from the transporters to their current temporary foster.  We are incredibly thankful for the opportunity to care for Koda and Puka, but now they need your support to find a loving forever home.  Would you consider helping them secure the love and kindness they truly deserve?  For more information on how to adopt, foster, or contribute to our rescue efforts, please visit our website at www.Denkaisanctuary.org. ##2312979##
