Venom - Australian Shepherd-Unknown Mix Male Dog For Adoption in Lakewood, Colorado, USA

Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Australian Shepherd / Mixed.

This pup will be available to meet starting on 10/3 VENOM — ABSOLUTELY ZERO VENOM, APPROXIMATELY 90% EARS Meet Venom, with stunning blue eyes, a soft fluffy white coat, and ears that appear to have their own zip code. If you’re wondering why he looks familiar, it’s probably because this little dude looks like Bolt jumped straight out of the cartoon and landed at the shelter. Venom arrived as an unclaimed stray to a shelter in New Mexico, but he hasn’t let that slow him down. He LOVES people, loves other dogs, loves snacks, and believes every new person or puppy he meets has excellent potential to become his next best friend. He is a certified social butterfly with a huge heart, huge personality, and, once again, absolutely enormous ears. This silly boy is active, playful, and happiest when he has other puppies to romp around with. He’s learning all the fun puppy stuff, already knows how to sit for treats, and is extremely willing to continue his education as long as the snack-based compensation package remains competitive. Venom would love an active home with a yard where he can run, play, learn, and get into perfectly reasonable amounts of puppy nonsense. Dog friends would be a major bonus for this social little goofball. Venom has his entire life ahead of him. He’s ready to stop being somebody’s unclaimed stray and start growing up as somebody’s cherished dog. Huge ears. Huge heart. Huge personality. Venom is ready to grow into his forever home. Just make sure the doorway is wide enough for those ears They were rescued from a shelter in New Mexico Meet and greets are by appointment only.
