General Notes | Handsome Henry is an active puppy who is so excited to help you conquer that half marathon, check all the 14ers off your list, and tag along on your next backpacking trip! This little man has the cutest upright ears, is on the smaller side for a lab mix, and is going to make the world's best adventure and snuggle buddy. He is goofy, happy, and adapts well to new environments! He's great with dogs of all sizes and loves everyone he meets. He does well in playing, and with nap time, consistently rotating between the two. Henry is as snuggly as they come, and loves to snuggle with both his foster parents while watching TV. He adores small kiddos, and would be happy to have a family that likes to cuddle and play! Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP. Personality - Henry is sweet, quirky and playful. He enjoys playing with his toys, wrestling with his foster dog siblings, and then cuddling up on your lap for a nap! He's also small for a lab and the smallest in his litter, so he's sized perfectly to fill up the corner of your tent on your next camping trip! Story | Henry and his 10 siblings and mama were pulled from a high kill shelter in TX, and brought to Colorado in December! His mom has the sweetest demeaner and passed that on to her babies. Henry has spent most of his life in a foster home and is well socialized! Henry's mom and siblings were all adopted and he's ready to find his forever home too! Other Dogs | Henry does great with both big and small dogs, and is super playful! He is being fostered with 4 other dogs and likes to snuggle up with them, follow them around, and entice them in play! He spends a good part of his day wrestling with his siblings and would love to have a doggy sibling! His mom owns a doggy daycare and takes him along, so he gets to spend his time having a blast playing with all the dogs! Cats | Henry has not been cat tested. Children | Henry loves little humans! He would be awesome with kiddos of all ages as long as they are gentle and kind. Training | Henry knows how to use the doggy door and is nearly potty trained! Henry and his whole litter are super smart, active and very trainable! One of his siblings had a DNA test done and was mostly Lab and German Shepherd, which may mean he will be the most loyal and intelligent boy around! He loves food and will do anything for a treat! He's still a puppy and will need continued training as he learns how to be the best puppy he can be! He will thrive in a home that wants to teach him to do all sorts of tricks and new commands! Henry is still working on his crate training and is currently crated when his fosters leave the home. They leave him with a lick mat to keep him occupied. He may bark for a few minutes once he finishes his lick mat, but usually setttles in for a nap shortly after. He may be better suited for a home without shared walls over an apartment because of this. His parents think he may be mixed with Malinois due to his intelligence and athleticism, so he may grow up to be the perfect home security system! Leash | Henry's leash training is in progress! Activity Level | High. This little guy has a lot of energy and would thrive with either a playful dog sibling to wear him out or a family willing to put in the work to exercise him both physically and mentally! Henry would love to be your new running or hiking buddy as he thrives off of exercise! Health Notes | Healthy and happy!

Meeting Dogs | Foster dogs may have meet & greets by appointment to approved applicants only. To become an approved applicant - please complete the application process. Please know | Available dogs are updated as soon as possible and we do our best to keep it up-to-date, but occasionally dogs shown may become unavailable without notice due to a pending adoption. We encourage you to put in an application even if you don't see your new family member currently, as once you are approved, we can place you on the waiting list for first priority on the selection of the dogs we do bring in. That means you can often meet a dog upon transport arrival and adopt before they even make it to this page! We can not guarantee that a dog you wish to adopt is available by the time your adoption application is submitted, processed, and approved. Your application is good for 90 days from the time of approval for any dog as long as it is a good fit for your family and your lifestyle.
