Story
Meet Haku!
From his amazing foster:
"He is gaining weight finally, he's doing so good, the biggest cuddle bug you can hope for, sometimes to much thinking he's a lap dog. He loves sun bathing laying outside. He's definitely a water chugger with how active he can be."
From his foster: " Haku-In the Hawaiian language, Haku means Lord, Master, Overseer, Leader. And boy does he live up to his name. This big boy has lived a short yet hard life but he is the definition of a survivor! Since arriving to AAAR at only 31 pounds, he has worked hard to gain almost 45 pounds. With that strength, he has also learned that he loves to talk. Whether it's to give you his opinion or express his undying appreciation for you, he is never short on words...or barks. He knows how to sit like a proper gentleman and lay down. As long as he has a comfy blankie to cuddle with, he will kennel up though he prefers a cover over his kennel to help him decompress. Kong's or any toy you can put food in is his favorite; he's always up for a challenge. Car rides give him a little anxiety and he still hasn't learned how to get in and out of the car very well but we're working on it. With some patience and trust building, he'll come a long way! He enjoys playing with medium sized dogs he's not always sure of big dogs. He does need some extra time, patience and knowledge of a reactive dog when it comes to men though he takes to women and adores children! With a little time and love, he will bond with men as he has gotten very close with my boyfriend. Cookies and treats are his favorite and he is very treat oriented. He's still understanding how toys work but has learned a lot through watching members of my pack. Haku is looking for someone who has as much love to give as he does. Someone who is ready to show him the world, continue his training to work his brain and give him a consistent, safe and loving family.
Previous shelter staff notes - Haku is the sweetest boy that adores other dogs! He's so wiggly and friendly! He's great with big and small dogs too! He arrived to us underweight and starving. He's gaining weight and is getting to healthy weight after fending for himself on the streets for who knows how long. Despite his rough past, he's ready for a brighter future where he can be cherished and loved and never know abandonment again.
ADOPTION FEE: $425
We are a foster-based rescue and generally do not have pups available to meet at our office except during adoption events on Saturdays. Not every dog attends every adoption event.
Interested in this pup? The first step is to complete our online application by clicking the "Apply for Adoption" button. Please note that we are only able to finalize adoptions at events for approved adopters. The earlier you apply, the better as it takes time to review and approve applications.
We host adoption events almost every Saturday from 10:00am to 1:00pm at our rescue office (1721 W Harmony, unit 102, Fort Collins, Co 80526)! Check our Instagram and/or Facebook page for info on where we will be hosting adoptions this weekend!
All Aboard Animal Rescue saves dogs and puppies from high-kill shelters in other states. These pups are brought to Colorado, where they are required to be spayed or neutered - breaking the cycle of unwanted litters of puppies who end up as strays! Please consider supporting us in this mission by adopting, fostering, volunteering, or donating.
