Kenya
Kenya
is an
11 year
old Schipperke.
He was
surrendered
to another
family
member
(sister)
when his
owner
began
having
some family
difficulties
and no
longer
felt able
to care
for him.
Because
the sister
not only
was going
to school
but she
also had
two other
dogs and
lived
in a condominium,
she felt
it was
in the
best interest
of Kenya
to be
adopted
out to
a loving
and caring
family.
He is
a lucky
boy! He
now is
living
with a
very loving
couple
in Byers,
CO. They
have a
35 acre
farm and
another
Schipperke
for Kenya
to play
with.
They said
Kenya
and Skipper
and doing
great
together
and he
is "one
happy
camper."

Cricket
Cricket
was turned
in to
us from
the Longmont
Humane
Society.
She was
2 to 2
1/2 years
old, unspayed
and not
the most
amiable
little
dog. She
did not
like anyone
picking
her up
and she
had a
tendency
to nip
at them
when they
tried.
After
a bit
of love/
attention
and training
by her
"foster
family",
she came
around
and was
adopted
by a couple
from Canon
City,
CO. Kadee
(they
changed
her name)
is doing
great
and even
is enjoying
the company
of their
cats.

Taz
Taz was
surrendered
to the
CRSC because
he bit
the owners
daughter.
We aren't
sure of
the circumstances
leading
up to
the actual
incident
but, once
in the
care of
the "foster
family"
he did
fine and
had no
signs
of aggression
(except
with his
food).
Taz was
adopted
by a couple
from Bennett,
CO who
treat
him and
consider
him as
one of
the family.
He is
very happy
and content
in his
new home
and the
new owners
adore
him. |

Skippy
Skippy
was found
running
loose
on the
base near
Colorado
Springs.
He had
been a
"FREE"
soul for
nearly
two weeks
before
he was
captured
and taken
in by
a lady
who cared
for him
until
we were
able to
adopt
him out.
Skippy
is rather
small
but very
active
and he
keeps
his new
parents
on the
alert
all the
time.
Skippy
is now
known
as Oscar
and is
a typical
Schip…
loves
to run,
play and
get into
things.
He and
his owners
are now
one "happy
family"
and are
living
in Centennial,
CO. |

Phoebe
Phoebe
was found
as a stray
in New
Mexico.
She had
been wearing
tags from
Chicago
and many
attempts
had been
made to
find her
owners
but, to
no avail.
Phoebe
wasn't
very well
socialized.
She did
not like
cats,
small
children
and only
tolerated
other
dogs.
Phoebe
also hated
being
outside…she
would
make such
a noise
that neighbors
began
to complain
so she
was surrendered
to us.
With a
lot of
work and
attention,
Phoebe
came around
somewhat
and was
adopted
by a couple
in Aurora,
CO who
have helped
her overcome
some of
her problems.
She lives
with 3
other
Schipperkes
and does
fine with
them…
Phoebe
is definitely
the husbands
dog…
she sleeps
with him
and stays
near him
as much
as she
possibly
can. She
is happy
and content
now. |

Noel
Noel was
a 1 year
old unaltered
Schipperke
that was
too much
of a handful
for her
owners.
She needed
more training
and attention
than they
had time
to give
her so
they did
the right
thing
and asked
us to
find her
a good
home.
Last I
heard
from her
new owners
in/near
Loveland,
CO. She
is doing
great!!!
Noel and
her buddy--their
older
Schipperke--are
having
a blast
running,
playing
and getting
their
tummies
scratched.
Another
happy
ending!!

Shadow
Shadow
was around
5 years
old when
she came
into the
program.
She had
been purchased
when she
was 9
weeks
old and
had been
kept outside
with a
large
Lab. She
likes
children,
men and
women
and especially
liked
having
her tummy
rubbed.
Shadow
had no
skills
when she
was taken
in as
a "foster
child"
by a couple
in Grand
Junction.
She didn't
know how
to play
and was
a bit
on the
shy side.
She now
loves
to play
with other
dogs,
have her
tummy
rubbed,
loves
car rides
and go
for walks.
The couple
just couldn't
let her
go and
decided
to adopt
her on
a permanent
basis.
She and
they are
very happy
and content
with the
outcome.

Chantey
Chantey
was a
retired
show dog.
She is
a sweet
little
gal who
loved
attention
and liked
other
dogs as
well.
She was
very friendly
to everyone
and never
seemed
to have
any aggression
problems.
Chantey
was adopted
by a gentleman
in Pensicola,
FL and
they are
enjoying
the company
of the
other.
He had
lost his
long time
buddy
around
two years
ago and
was looking
for another
Schip
to take
with him
on his
sailboat….Chantey
was the
one for
him!!
He now
signs
off his
e-mails
as "Chantey's
Captain!"
Guess
we know
who rules
the roost
in that
family
eh? |

Marlena
Marlena
is another
retired
show dog.
She, like
Chantey,
were accustomed
to people
and children
as well
as other
dogs.
She was
adopted
by a couple
in Manhattan.
Last I
heard….they
were loving
her and
she was
loving
them and
her new
home.
She enjoys
her walks
in the
park and
all the
attention
she is
getting.

Trixie
Trixie
came from
the Glennwood
Springs
area.
She was
only around
10 months
to a year
old when
her story
was brought
to our
attention.
She was
left outside
almost
all the
time and
had no
shelter.
She was
brought
back to
Colorado
by a couple
who were
going
to keep
her permanently
but ended
up not
being
able to
do so.
Trixie
was a
wild little
gal. She
jumped
on people,
would
bark with
a high
pitched
bark and
was aggressive
with her
food.
After
she was
shown
that these
actions
were not
necessary
to attain
the attention
she was
wanting,
she improved
a lot.
Trixie
now lives
in Denver,
CO and
loves
her new
home and
her new
owner.
She guards
the home
and "her
human"
very dilligently.

Sweetpea
Not much
information
was available
on Sweetpea
when we
got her.
She was
around
one year
old, unaltered
but seemed
to be
very good
with children
but did
much better
with older
children…like
7 years
or on
up. Sweetpea
stayed
in her
"foster
home"
for a
month
or so
and then
was adopted
by a couple
from Silver
City,
NM. They
had just
lost their
15 year
old Schipperke
and were
wanting
one to
help fill
the void.
Sweetpea
is an
active
little
gal but
is very
much loved
by her
new owners.

Ringo
Ringo
was found
running
at large
in Adams
County.
He is
a very
sociable
dog but
he did
not like
being
cornered
or hovered
over.
He got
along
great
with other
dogs and
with children.
Ringo
(now called
Mongo)
was adopted
by a couple
from Windsor,
CO and
they absolutely
adore
him. He
has put
on weight,
loves
to sleep
on his
back in
their
lap and
snores
during
the news.
Per his
owner…
Mongo
is very
happy
and has
a forever
home right
here with
us. |

Sissy
Sissy
was around
one year
old and
was surrendered
by a couple
who said
they just
didn't
have the
time or
energy
to care
for her
like she
needed.
She nipped
at one
of the
children
and the
owner
was afraid
it would
continue
to get
worse
so we
were contacted.
Sissy
was adopted
(and her
name was
changed
to Smidgen)
and is
now a
happy
companion
to Mongo…
yes, the
same couple
who took
Mongo
(formerly
Ringo)
also adopted
Smidgen.
She is
doing
well but
still
needs
some training
on certain
things.
Smidgen
fell in
love with
the husband
and they
are smitten
with each
other
now. |

problem.
He does
not run
away,
just climbs

be near
"his
human".
