Hi Guys, Smuggler here! I am named after the breath taking beautiful Smuggler Mountain in Colorado, because my coat is white as snow!
I somehow ended up homeless and on the street searching for food. Some people were not very nice to me, so it took a while for me to trust anyone enough to be rescued. But here I am now, living the good life and getting lots of TLC!
I have had the works…vaccines, neuter, micro-chip, etc…and am a perfectly healthy pup! I LOVE other dogs and need to be in a home with a k9 sibling to make me feel more comfortable. I am timid with new people, and need someone that will be very patient with me while I learn to trust again. It takes more than one meet and greet for me to warm up to new people. Fast moves and loud noises scare me, so I prefer to be in a home with adults, as young children are a bit too much for me. I also would do best living in a house with a yard to play in. An apartment building is too busy and all the people and activity scare me.
I am crate trained and house-trained and also learning my basic commands. I still get nervous on walks, but am doing better. I am a very gentle and sweet boy and hope to have my forever home soon.
If you think you might be the right family for me, please visit our website at www.redcollar.org to learn more about our adoption procedures.
