My story
Please go to our website at to find out more about this pet and to submit an adoption application. Please DO NOT call or email us; all information about current dogs available, adoption donations, vetting, and this specific dog are on our website. We are a non-profit organization and we are completely 100% volunteer run. We DO NOT have a shelter and only approved applicants can make appointments with our foster homes to meet the dogs we have.Our volunteers will not discuss dogs we have available for adoption UNTIL you have an application on file and are approved to adopt.General Notes | Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP. Henry is a very sweet, enthusiastic 1-year old who loves people and other dogs. He is a typical happy-go-lucky lab who can easily be trained with treats, but like any dog will need some initial work to achieve his full potential. In exchange, you will be rewarded with a very sweet companion, lots of cuddles and kisses, and a goofy personality to brighten up your days.Health Notes | Healthy!Other Dogs | As a young dog, he is very playful. Can play rough but responds well to other dogs cues. May need redirection. Behaves very well at the dog park: not assertive or rough, just curious, tentative, and eager to meet everyone.Cats | Will chaseChildren | Has a soft mouth but is excited and can knock down little ones.Training | Has not received much training in the past, but he is very food motivated and eager to learn. Knows sit and crate. He is ready to build a relationship with you through exercise and training!Leash | Walks with a harness. Will try to zig zag if given too much leash, but responds well to a shorter leash and will stay by your side. His default mode is to walk slowly and stop to smell and watch everything. He does get distracted by new things while on walks (including other people and dogs), and can growl and pull in some situations. However, he is not always reactive and does do well with other dogs and people when off leash (e.g he is gentle and well behaved at the dog park), so his foster parents think the initial reactiveness can be trained with some exposure to new things and consistent redirection.Activity Level | Initially would have described him as high energy, but the more time we spend with him the more we think he's on his way to be a very sweet, chill dog. Does love to play and is curious about everything like any 1 year old boy, so may get himself into trouble if left unattended, but is equally cuddly, lazy, and easily redirected.Personality | Sweet, goofy, curious, enthusiastic.Story | Henry was listed on Americanlisted because he kept knocking down the newly walking baby. Owner agreed to have mile high find him a home.Thank you! | Adoption Donations | Our adoption donations are $425 for dogs 8 weeks to 1 year, $375 for 1-6 years, $325 for dogs 7-10 years, and $175 for 11+ years of age. Purebred dogs regardless of age are $475. These minimum donations help to defer the costs of initial vet care, food, and supplies while in foster care that currently average over $500 per dog).Meeting Dogs | Foster dogs may have meet & greets by appointment to approved applicants only. To become an approved applicant - please complete the application process.Please know | Available dogs are updated as soon as possible and we do our best to keep it up-to-date, but occasionally dogs shown may become unavailable without notice due to a pending adoption.We encourage you to put in an application even if you don't see your new family member currently, as once you are approved, we can place you on the waiting list for first priority on the selection of the dogs we do bring in. That means you can often meet a dog upon transport arrival and adopt before they even make it to this page!We can not guarantee that a dog you wish to adopt is available by the time your adoption application is submitted, processed, and approved. Your application is good for 90 days from the time of approval for any dog as long as it is a good fit for your family and your lifestyle. May 21, 2022, 6:04 am
