General Notes | Hi, I'm Henry! I am a happy go lucky boy who is always happy, LOVES people and loves dogs. I will play for hours or nap while you work, whatever you want to do! If you are looking for a companion to go running, walking or hiking with, I am your boy! Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP. Personality | I am SO happy! My tail is always wagging and I usually have a smile on my face. I will give you gentle licks if you want and I will gladly sit on the couch to keep you comfy. If you're not into animals on the furniture, I'm happy to go lay on a fluffy bed just for me. Story | In my one year of life, I've already had quite the adventure. I some how ended up roaming the streets of Midway, Arkansas. I was picked up in June and waited in a local shelter until Mile High rescued me! I took a long van ride here to this beautiful place called Colorado and am happy to be able to run free in the yard and have people give me love and attention. Other Dogs | I'm living in a home with another dog. I love to get her to play with me and we have quite the good time chasing and wrestling with each other. The dog I currently live with likes to be the boss and I let her. I follow her lead and will bring toys over to her to play and stay back when she is trying to rest. I'd be good in a home with or without another dog, but I would love to go run at the dog park! Cats | I don't think I've ever been exposed to a cat but I think I might be quite curious. Children | I'm living with two small humans, one is 4 and one is 6. They have a lot of energy just like me and they like to run around and throw toys for me. I'm starting to realize they don't like when I jump on them, so I stay down and just sniff them. I don't even try and get their food if they're having a snack in a couch, I just wait for them to drop something! Training | What's training? I'm a clean slate with an eager desire to please and the drive to learn! I am however crate trained - bonus! I sleep all night in my crate and when the humans have to leave during the day I don't mind taking a nap; I never bark in my crate! I listen when you tell me NO or to drop it and go potty outside when you tell me to; I am a great listener, and just need your guidance with new rules. Leash | I went for a good long walk with the other dog in the house this morning, boy was that exciting! So many new sounds and smells, I loved every minute of it and wasn't scared of anything. I'm learning how to walk with a harness, I didn't really like the slip lead. At this point I have done better off a leash than on one and will head right back over to you when outside. I need some training with a leash, but what dog doesn't! Activity Level | I am still a young dog, so I still have a lot of energy. My perfect day would be a good walk or run in the morning, then I'll calm down for a few hours and sleep in my crate if you need me to, out for lunch to chase a toy or ball or another walk and then I can take an afternoon nap and then I'll just follow you around in the evening so you don't feel lonely. Health Notes | I appear to be in great health and am up to date on all my vaccines!

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.
