General Notes | Hello, I'm Bo! While I don't want to brag, I'm a pretty amazing companion - and someone out there is sure going to be lucky they swiped right on me! I am one sweet gentle giant, and whatever you're into, I'm into! Want to go for a hike? I'll grab my off-roading harness. Camping more your thing? Doggy-approved s'mores have my name all over them. Need a day or night in to watch TV and relax? No need for a blanket - I'll make myself at home snuggled up next to you! Sound too good to be true? I know, I get that a lot, but I really just love being around my pack - from people and kids to dogs and cats - and enjoying time with them! I'll admit though, I do have a beige flag...which is my bark can be on the louder side. But I promise I only use it to say hello, and to say I'm having a great time! There is not an aggressive bone in my body! I don't demand attention, although if you put a hand out near me you should know I'm going to rest my chin on it and stare lovingly into your eyes until you cannot stop loving on me. I am one seriously sweet and good boy - won't you give me a chance to mesh right in with your life and add even more to it!? Personality | I am one super friendly guy! I love to greet people when they come to the door, and can even help you keep an eye out for possible new friends walking by! I may let out a bark only as each person and dog that go by are 1 less person and dog I cannot say hi to, but I'd say hello to everyone if I could! I am dog park and doggy daycare approved - and I've never had a doggy play date say I'm anything but a 5 star friend and play buddy! Story | I was rescued from Texas by Mile High Lab Mission in 2020, and was adopted by a family in CO that saw what a catch I was. Sadly, a severe health issue is forcing my family to make an incredibly difficult decision to have MHLM find me a new home, as they know I have so much exploring to do and love to give and they want me to have all of that and more! They are not rehoming me due to any fault of my own! Other Dogs | Love them! I become one wiggly boy when I see them, and cannot wait to gently introduce myself! Cats | I live with one now and am told I do a great job - so cat approved! Children | I am wonderful with kids - more people for me to be happy surrounding myself near, and more tiny hands to love on me! I'm not always aware of my size though, so teeny tiny humans may get bumped around me. I just get so excited and don't rezlied they are so much smaller than me! Training | I am house trainiuned and am very respectful of things that arent his own. When at home, I am just happy and content, and don't have any inclination to be destructive whatsoever. I know sit, and some other basic commands and am very smart so easily trainable. Leash | I sometimes pull when I see new friends or things I want to investigate further (like food!), but this can be worked on! Activity Level | Medium. I am content with both short walks, long hikes, day long play at doggy day camp, etc. Health Notes | I am healthy, and take pride in my perfect pink nose and soft coat! Thank you! | Adoption Donations | Our adoption donations are $425 for dogs 8 weeks to 1 year, $375 for 1-6 years, $325 for dogs 7-10 years, and $175 for 11+ years of age. Purebred dogs regardless of age are $475. These minimum donations help to defer the costs of initial vet care, food, and supplies while in foster care that currently average over $700 per dog). 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.
