Lebowski

Hello!  I'm Lebowski - as in "The Big" - but please call me "The Dude"  - or "El Duderino" if you're not into the whole "brevity thing."  I'm a 2-year-young 50-lb goofy Wire Haired Terrier who is thoroughly enjoying my time with my Foster Family (humans and canines alike) but dreams of the Big Day when I cross the threshold into the home of my Forever Family.  I was transported to Denver from a rural Colorado shelter and I'm quickly learning how fantastic it is to be part of a family!  

While I'm a *very* fast learner, I'll need a family who can teach me what, exactly, is expected of canine family members.  My biggest undesireable habit is my overwhelming excitement that takes over when I see new people - I *love* to greet them vigorously with jumps, kisses and hugs!  I'm not quite sure why you humans consider this outpouring of love "undesireable" but I agree to try and curb my enthusiasm with some patient, positive reinforcement training (although my excitement might be directed straight out of my wiggling backsidebut so be sure you steer clear of the rear!) I'd love to be a part of an active family and would love to accompany you around Colorado hiking, snowshoeing and doing whatever other stereotypical Colorado activities you enjoy!  At the end of a long busy day, I love to snuggle and make a perfect 50-lb lap dog!!

I have yet to have experience the presence of a cat so I'm not quite sure how we'd get along - but all Family members will need to ensure they're comfortable with my big "Dude" enthusiasm prior to our committing to a life-long co-habitation situation.  If you're interested in adding "The Dude" to your family, please email pawscoadoptions@gmail.com or fill out an adoption application on the Paws & Co.
