First of all, yes. I really am this color. I'm not chocolate or black... more of a misty silver-blue. Oooooh. My name is Boulder and, oh man, does it fit! I'm a big guy. Solid. Nearly 80 lb of muscle. And definitely outdoorsy. I'm not the type of dog to sit at your feet all day long while you do needlepoint and drink tea. Nothing against that stuff- it's cool and all- but it's not my style. If, on the other paw, you're looking for a hiking, biking, running, rock climbing buddy (no, I don't have thumbs, but... don't underestimate
"I could never do what you guys do!" "Someone do something" "I don't know how you do it!" "I wish I could..." "I would, but..." This Giving Tuesday, you CAN! You can make a difference in the lives of dogs like Smoke, who was abandoned in his home when his owners moved and then let out on the streets to fend for himself when the landlord discovered him. Smoke deserved better from the beginning. He needed just one person to say "yes, I will help." And since that happened, life has turned around for him! It doesn't take a superhero
Hey, can you come out and play? My name is Stella. What's yours? I'm looking for a best friend. Someone kind and sweet, just like me. Maybe someone who has a dog! I love dogs! Someone who just... loves spending time together, I guess. You seem pretty great so far. I can really see us being friends forever. Hey, do you need to get home before the streetlights go on? That's cool. I promise I'll get you there. I'm almost a year old, you know- 11 months! So I'll take care of you. I haven't got a home to go back
They call me Li'l Luna and I've got enthusiasm COMING OUT MY EARS! Which, given the size and volume of these ears, is really saying something. I love the sky. I love the leaves falling all around me. I LOVE other dogs and I LOOOOVEEEEE people. At seven months old, I'm still just a kid. I haven't reached the "play it cool" stage of my life yet, you know? If I like something, I'm gonna let you know. And I like everything. The cracks in the sidewalk are amazing. Is that a worm? Incredible. I would love to have a family-
My name is Delilah and I'm like a geode. Right away, I might seem kind of stony. A bit of a tough exterior. But it's what's inside that really sparkles! It's not til you chip away at the outside a bit that you get to see how special I am. I'm loving and wonderful and polite. Once I get to know you a little, I'll flop over for belly scratches and wrap my paws around your arm to hang on. I'm seven years old, so I know how to behave! I can be trusted to be left home alone, I know the
I may not look like royalty at first glance. When you see me in my kennel- just one black dog among many- you probably won't even notice me. But make no mistake. I AM a queen. Empress Sapphire of the Seven Seas, if you please. What exactly I'm doing here in Jefferson County is a mystery to me. It's obvious once you get to know me. You'll wonder why you didn't see it before. My excellent manners, my regal demeanor, my proclivity for shaking hands, my benevolence toward children... it's all there. If you've ever read a fairy tale, you know that good
Hey there, I'm Jax, and I'm here to share my story with you. They say I'm pure sunshine, and I can't wait to brighten your world. You see, I've got a knack for turning even the most dedicated curmudgeons into giggling kids. It all starts with my magnificent ears and this wildly wagging tail. Just one look, and you'll find yourself grinning from ear to ear. But it gets even better when I start showing off my bag of tricks. I can sit, shake, high five, lie down, and even roll over with a little encouragement. The best part is,
Are you the kind of person who will wait for your phone to stop ringing and then check your voicemail? Do your ideal Saturday plans not involve putting on shoes? Does the idea of going a whole weekend without talking to another person sound amazing to you? Then you and I might be kindred spirits. My name is Penny and I'm a classic introvert. No thank you, I do not want to go to a street festival. A dog bar on the night when they have a DJ for some reason? That sounds like a literal nightmare. But give me a
Hi there, I'm Sadie, and let's address the elephant in the room (or should I say, the "pooch" in the room ) - yes, I'm on the heavier side. But beneath it all, I'm just a beagle-sized bundle of love. Plus, I rock a stylish gray muzzle at the grand age of ten! Sure, my size might catch your eye, but there's more to me. I'm a sweet, affectionate couch potato – perfect for those who prefer leisurely strolls over mountain climbs. I get along with dogs, cats and humans of all types, though I do best in calm and
Introducing Boh, the dog with aspirations as vast as his heart. While some may envision his name in giant letters, Boh's true yearning is to see it in little letters – handwritten at the bottom of an adoption contract, excitedly shared in text messages with friends and family: "Look who just joined our family!" Or perhaps etched on a tag gracing his collar, complete with his human's phone number on the back. Can you imagine? His very own human, who loves him enough not to want to lose him. Boh's been diligently preparing for this moment over four years, transforming
