HENRY AND BERRY WILL BE PLACED TOGETHER.

Henry is the son half of the dynamic duo of purebred Shelties Berry and Henry.  The boys were relinquished by a backyard breeder who had too many dogs.  Henry and his dad Berry have been fostered by a terrific couple in Monument Colorado who have been teaching them about how beloved dogs are treated.  Henry is a little shy with strangers which is quite common in the breed.  He craves petting and demands attention from his "peeps."  He loves to carry toys around with him and squeak them as he goes.  And he shows excellent athletic potential.  Perhaps he would like to run in agility??

Please begin the process for adoption by reading our Adoption Policies and, if we sound like the right group for you, fill out our online Adoption Application. From there, our receipt of your completed application will be confirmed by email. You then will receive a follow-up phone call if we feel you are a good potential applicant for the dog. Lots of good conversation with the foster family, a reference from your veterinarian, and a home visit round out the screening process. We take dog adoption very seriously.  Please put a lot of thought into why you want to adopt a dog, and help us make a good match for your family. We appreciate your taking the time to visit with us. We will look forward to hearing from you as well.
