Bella
Denver, CO
|
|
Bella is a sweet little 35# 11mo Australian Shepherd who arrived this week from our partner shelter in Aztec NM. She was a bit timid after the trauma of the shelter and the transport up to us, but after the first day she's really opened up and is thriving in her foster home. She's very attentive and affectionate with people, and loves playing with her foster brother (a former WASR foster pup). Bella is very active and will need a fenced yard to play in and explore, but is just as happy curled up on the floor in the room with her foster family during downtime. We haven't seen any evidence of formal training, but she is very attentive and seems like she will be a quick study like most Aussies. We do not know if she's potty trained but there have been no accidents in her foster home - she's been going in a spot in the yard away from the door and people.
She will need to be spayed - scheduled for July 28

Oakley
Denver, CO

|
Oakley came to us from rural Arkansas. He is an amazing boy that loves all people, children, other dogs and dog savvy cats. We do not know his mix but he appears to be part border collie and maybe some retriever. Oakley is moderate energy. He is a taller boy with a slender build about 55 pounds. Outgoing and friendly he has tons of potential as a companion and outdoor enthusiast. About 2 years old he is housetrained, fully vetted, neutered and heartworm negative. Please complete an application to adopt on our website if you would like to welcome Oakley home. No apartment homes will be considered.
Macy
Denver, CO
Macy is a total goof, and a fluffy hairball full of curiosity, playfulness and affection. She loves to play chase with her tail or tug-o-war with a good, sturdy dog toy or rope, and will look to her human for reassurance on what to do in new situations. Macy has a decent grasp on her basic manners - will sit on command, knows her name, and has no issues sleeping in a crate. She is learning commands such as "down/off" and "outside", and she has learned how to use the dog door to take herself in/out to the backyard. Macy easily takes redirection when her curiosity gets the best of her. Macy will do best in a home that has an owner who is highly engaged and will play with her daily to tire her out. She needs a yard to run and explore, and having kiddos or another doggo friend to play with would be a big bonus for her.
Macy came to WASR from Arkansas, is around 7-8 months old. She is believed to be an Aussie/golden mix. She is fully vaccinated, heartworm negative, and is spayed. No apartment homes will be considered.

Blue
Waiting in Texas to come to West

Blue is the classic blue heeler. He is a very intelligent, happy and loyal boy. We believe Blue is about four years old. His life has been pretty rough to this point. He is missing some teeth and does have an old wound where his back leg healed crooked after a break. It does not seem to slow him down much though. The doctor says he will be just fine. Blue is great on a leash and happy to go into a crate whenever needed. He is not much of a barker or a whiner and seems pretty content just laying at your feet. He is a medium size & energy boy and I would recommend a medium activity life for him because of his injured leg. This boy still has a lot of life and love to give to the right person. Currently in a foster home in TX & hoping to move north soon.
Xena
Waiting in Texas to come to Colorado

Xena is a loving 5 year old Border Collie Australian Cattle dog mix looking for a home where her people will spend most of the time with her.
She loves to be outside, enjoying the fresh air, patrolling for squirrels and just being with her people adventuring.
Moderately active girl who likes to play, but can be calm when needed.
Would be a good hiking partner to take exploring on the trails.
Dog friendly, with proper introductions and would be happy to find a home with a dog playmate.
Housetrained.
Great house manners - will not beg for food. She will sit away, waiting to be asked if she wants a treat.
Xena is not a fan of the crate or being locked up and left alone.
Not destructive inside or outside, unless she is locked up.
Lays down when she eats!
Knows basic commands 'sit, bedtime and comes when her name is called'.
Walks well on leash. Off leash, she can be recalled, if squirrels are not around.
Rides ok in car, but needs a seatbelt so she doesn't roam around the car.
Not a big barker, but will let you know if someone is at the door.
Sleeps through the night at the end of her foster's bed.
Her favorite thing is being with her person/people and being outside.
Does not like to be left alone for long without a doggie friend.
She's not a fan of cats, so will not be adopted to a home with a cat.
Child friendly. Respectful children over 7 recommended.
Xena is 45 lbs. spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, including rabies, heartworm negative and current on prevention

Dixon
Waiting in Texas to come to Colorado

This special boy is looking for human companionship to enjoy life together. Can you offer a loving forever home to this amazing pup?
Dixon is a 2-3 year old Australian cattle dog mix who is very loving and loyal.
Would love a home with a single person or couple who work from home or early retired.
Dixon needs and deserves a human who will love him unconditionally, take care of him and include him in their lives.
He bonds strongly to his people and will follow you around like a shadow all day long.
Easy going guy who would love to cuddle up with you on the couch or lay happily at your feet while you work.
It takes some time for him to warm up and trust that new people won't hurt him, but once he does, he will put his head in your lap or gently place his paw on your leg asking for affection.
Not a needy boy, just wants to know you’re around and he hasn’t been ‘lost’.
Intelligent, medium energy guy who enjoys doggie puzzles, playing fetch and being with his people.
Knows basic commands ‘sit, stay, come, wait, bed, paw’.
VERY treat motivated: loves animal cookies, cheerios, applesauce, steamed veggies and all fruits.
Housetrained, crate trained and not destructive inside or outside.
Enjoys daily walks and walks well on leash, but he has some fear reactivity when he sees an unknown dog. Doing better with training.
Rides perfectly in the car.
Sleeps through the night in his own bed.
He would be happiest as the only dog in your life or with an older, calmer dog.
No cats or small animals, because he does have a prey drive.
Apartments will not be considered, he needs his own fenced yard. He promises to keep it safe from any unwanted squirrels.
A calmer home where his person is home the majority of the time would be ideal.
Children are not a good fit for him due to their loud, unpredictable behavior which makes him uncomfortable.
Dixon has a liver shunt, which is a condition where his liver does not filter properly. He is doing great being medically managed with food, and antibiotics. Liver shunt dogs can live long normal lives with proper care. His food and medicine is easily shipped to your home through Chewy.com.
He thrives in a consistent routine oriented environment and will bring so much love and joy to your life.
Dixon is 55 lbs. neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm negative and on prevention.
Fostered in Texas and available to surrounding areas that are drivable.

Julie

Julie is a beautiful petite 2 year old german shepherd who weighs 40 pounds.
She's potty trained and goes into her crate on command and sleeps in there at night.
She has very nice manners inside the home
Walks well on a leash
Will do best in a home without children or cats
Loves to play with small dogs (not a fan of big dogs)
She naturally prefers women to men, but can be wooed and won by kind patient men
Loud noises scare her which is not un-common for dogs.
She's not the most fond of riding in the car but eventually will lay on the floor board. More positive experiences going to get ice cream for example will help her improve.
She loves to play outside and rolls and flips in the yard. She also likes to grass surf and will run and bounce at you which is funny to watch.
She will even play outside by herself with her ball and rope toy but is glad when you are near-by.
Sometimes she will start to dig outside but stops immediately when told to do so.
Doesn't bark much, only when the doorbell rings or briefly when someone new enters the home. Julie is a small packaged shepherd who so loves her people, and any small doggies in the home, and will entertain you while she entertains herself. Fully vetted microchipped and heartworm negative.
