Colter

Colter is the total package wrapped up in one extra handsome, extra lovable gentle giant. From the moment you meet him, it’s hard not to fall for his soft eyes, calm demeanor, and sweet personality. Honestly, we can’t believe this perfect boy is still waiting for a home of his own. Colter came to us as a stray alongside his buddy Wilder, who has since found his forever family. The two got along beautifully, and Colter has shown no signs of reactivity toward other dogs while in our care. We think he’d likely enjoy a canine companion in his future home, though as always, slow and thoughtful introductions are important. We’re happy to help facilitate a dog meet-and-greet! This handsome guy appears to be potty trained, walks wonderfully on leash, and already knows several cues including “sit,” “down,” and “shake.” He may even be crate trained, as he settles calmly in his kennel and seems to appreciate having a cozy safe space of his own. While Colter is mostly laid back, he does get the occasional burst of joyful zoomies that are impossible not to smile at. Though he isn’t too toy crazy, he does appreciate having a variety of toys to choose from when he is in a chew type mood! Colter absolutely adores affection and will happily melt right into your arms for love and attention. He’s also incredibly gentle when taking treats, despite being very enthusiastic about snack time. Beneath his big frame is a sensitive soul who may not have always known kindness. Fast movements can sometimes make him flinch, so Colter is looking for a home that will give him the patience, softness, and reassurance he deserves. Easy to love and impossible to forget, Colter is the kind of dog who will quietly become your very best friend. If you give this sweet boy a chance, you’ll gain a loyal companion for life.
