Julia

Julia's striking brindle coat may turn heads, but it's her big heart and joyful personality that truly win people over. She is an affectionate, goofy girl with a very puppy-like spirit who loves being part of the action. Julia enjoys cozy cuddle time in front of the TV (even if she sometimes forgets just how big she is), but she's always ready to spring back up for her favorite game-fetch!Energetic and playful, Julia would thrive in an active home that enjoys outdoor fun. She loves running, jumping, friendly wrestling, and chewing on toys, especially ones she can really get her teeth into. She's also a fan of car rides and happily hops in for adventures.Julia is incredibly sweet with people of all ages and has been wonderful with kids. She's very intelligent and food-motivated, already knowing "sit" and often offering it automatically in hopes of earning a treat. With continued training, she has great potential to learn even more.On leash, Julia can be a bit excitable, but her treat motivation makes her a good candidate for training. She's also learning that going outside in colder weather is worth it-having a human companion helps her feel more confident and successful with potty breaks.Julia has done well with male dogs and enjoys canine companionship, but she would do best as the only female dog in the home, as she has shown reactivity toward other adult female dogs. With the right environment and structure, Julia will be a loyal, loving, and fun companion for a lucky family ready to match her energy and enthusiasm for life.Julia was rescued from a high kill shelter in Texas.

If upon meeting the dog of your choosing at your scheduled pickup time you find that you aren't a good match, your deposit will be fully refunded. Adoption fees include vaccines up until time of adoption, microchip, spay/neuter and 1st 30 days of free pet insurance. We are not affiliated with MetLife pet insurance. (you have to sign up for the insurance or it will not go into effect). Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets. The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances.
