New dogs in for ADOPTION

GUS

9 month old, neutered male, black Lab.  Gus is a smaller sized Lab with a gorgeous face.  He is very good with other dogs.  Gus is a lab, so he likes his food and was a little too overzealous at the shelter.  He is undergoing training for food aggression and his is doing fantastic.  Gus is a super smart and loving Lab.

MIA

I'M ADOPTED!!

Mia is a nine-year-old Lab/Dalmatian mix. She was returned to us after two years with a new family due to health issues.  She has been diagnosed with a thyroid issue that is easily treatable with a very inexpensive medication.  She is small, weighing around 40 lbs. She is very affectionate and enjoys nothing more than a snuggle on the couch.  She is great with other kids and dogs.  She just doesn't do cats. :)

SNICKERS

I'M AVAILABLE!!

Snickers is a year old Golden Doodle.  Snickers was traumatized early on in life and is very insecure and does not like/will not approach people.  He needs another dog in the house to feel comfortable enough to go in and out to potty and play.  He loves to play with other dogs just not people.  He loves the couch and bed and is willing to snuggle and be loved on in either of those two places.  If you think you have the patients and love to work with Snickers please send us an email so that we can talk with you about his needs.

ROXY

Update

Roxy lost her battle with her liver shunt. Due to the disease she had recurring urinary tract infections and soon we ran out of options for her.  Dr. Priddy, a Veterinary Surgical Specialist attempted to repair the shunt but it was inoperable.  Roxy was an extremely happy and dear little lab.  We will miss her dearly but please know GRRF did all they could and she was in a home and loved to the end.

Roxy is a 10 month old pure Chocolate lab. She was diagnosed with an incurable liver shunt.  She has a wonderful spirit and is too lovely to put down.  She will need that special person or family that can love her and care for her. The average life span for this disease is around six years.  If you are interested please send an email to info@grrf.org so we can talk with youa about her needs.

CALLIE

We are very sad to say that Callie pasted away after a severe bout with hemorrhagic gastroenteritis.  We thank Dr. Maddux and Dr. Cole from Aurora Animal Clinic for doing their very best to save her.  We miss her very much.

Jack is too wonderful of a dog to still be in foster care.  He is sure there is a family that will take him and love him thru his older years.  He is kind, polite and has great house manners.  He doesn't even require a kennel when left alone.  He does ask that you not have any cats as they are just to tempting.  He does well with older children, other dogs or as an only.  Please consider Jack as your loving companion. 

KENZIE

I'M ADOPTED

Kenzie is a one year old yellow lab mix.  She has been returned to GRRF and is again available.  She is a smaller size yellow lab.  She originally came from a place where she lived in a closet.  She has recovered nicely from this experience but it did leave her reactive to new dogs. She is currently in foster care with two other dogs and is doing well so all is not lost.  She would do well to be in a house where she is the only dog.  She is great with kids and full of energy.

Kyra

YA I'M ADOPTED

Kyra is a seven year old lab/golden cross.  Kyra is another one of those special older dogs that is in need of tender loving care.  She is worthy of being loved through her older years.  She is hoping to find that family who will love her as she is.  She doesn't have the best hips in the world and is working on putting on some much needed weight.  She isn't perfect but is very happy, gentle, and loving. She loves people and gets along well with other dogs.

PEBBLES

I'M ADOPTED

Pebbles is an 8-year-old female Golden. In the pictures she looks like a lion because she was shaved due to being very matted and dirty.  When her hair grows back she will again be a pretty little golden.  Pebbles has the kindest, most patient temperament. She is great with small children and loves to play with other dogs.  She likes walking with her person and does well on leash.

Pebbles will be a great family dog.

COLE

PLACED

While Cole doesn't meet the criteria of a golden he did come into our lives and is worthy of being adopted by a loving family.  Cole is a 2yr old male Akita/Chow mix.  He is great with other dogs and has a very happy sweet disposition.  He would like to stay away from homes that have small children but doesn't mind teenagers.  If you are interested please contact Susan Sampson (388-3477) to schedule a visit.
