This handsome boy is great with other dogs, knows how to sit, and is a total people pleaser with the greatest smile that can light up any room. Sadly, Ed’s story is heartbreaking.

Adult · Male · Cocker Spaniel · 74 mi from Pueblo

He’s great with other dogs, although his fellow four-legged friends may occasionally need to remind him that personal boundaries are, in fact, a thing.Cadbury is also a devoted romantic. His current girlfriend is his dog bed, and their relationship is… passionate. We ask that you respect their privacy during this special time.Behind that adorable face is a gentleman with a few medical maintenance requirements.
Read more about Cadbury aka Judge
Cadbury has allergies that may require lifelong medication, and consistent, tailored grooming is incredibly important in keeping his allergies under control. His future family should be prepared to stay on top of his medical and grooming needs to keep this little man feeling his best!As far as house manners go, Cadbury has been a perfect gentleman! He hasn’t had a single accident in his foster home. He loves bones and antler chews and is always happy to entertain himself with a good chew session or romantic evening with his dog bed. Crate training, however, is not currently listed on his résumé. He has cried when kenneled and would appreciate a patient family willing to help him work on his independence.Cadbury’s ideal family is one that can keep up with his grooming and medical needs, appreciate his larger-than-life personality, and understand that personal space is simply not a concept he subscribes to.If you’re looking for a sweet, silly, affectionate little man with a big personality, a few extra maintenance requirements, and a questionable romantic history, Cadbury is your guy!They were rescued from a shelter in New Mexico.Meet and greets are by appointment only.

She's happy to get out and explore, but given her French Bulldog build, she's probably better suited to leisurely walks and shorter adventures than strenuous exercise or long, demanding outings.

29. Elvira
Adult · Female · Siberian Husky (medium coat) · 97 mi from Pueblo



Oh, hello! I'm Elvira. I get startled sometimes. Please excuse me. Oh, you want to cuddle? Great!
I'm located in Colorado and just getting settled into my foster home. I have already shown I walk well on a leash and love the fellow dog in the home with me!
I'm not a HUGE fan of crates BUT do remarkably well in the house when left out and about! According to the dog camera, I just play with my dog friend here and didn't get into ANY trouble. Nope. Not me!
I met some kids the other day and did great. I was quite comfortable and friendly around the elementary children I saw. I'm pretty comfortable with women but a little hesitant around men. That being said, I am very cuddly and like nothing more than to share the couch or bed with you at night.
Ready to meet a potty trained, lovely little lady? Great! Apply to meet Elvira!

Adopting a dog with children in Pueblo
Bring the whole family to meet the dog before you adopt, and ask the rescue how the dog behaves around children your kids' ages.
Teach children to let the dog come to them, to stroke gently, and to leave the dog alone while it's eating or sleeping. Give the dog a bed or crate of their own to retreat to, and always supervise young children with a new dog.
Relaxed adult dogs are often a better match for young children than puppies, which jump up, nip and chew while they learn.
