RAGS to RICHES. Rescued from a RANCH in Antonito, Colorado (as part of the 100 Dogs Project - a goal to bring 100 stray dogs from Antonito home for the holidays!) and now boarding at Pets on BROADWAY here in this fancy city of Denver.  Hi there! I’m Youkon – a 1 year-young Great Pyrenees mix pup who spent the first year of my life romping with my brothers, Mowgli & Mr. Gibbs (also up for adoption!) and growing to my (full-grown) weight of 80-lbs!  We were both fortunate to be rescued by Paws & Co. where we spent a few days with a temporary foster before boarding here at the fab Pets on Broadway!

Given that I didn’t have too much human interaction on the ranch, I’m not too sure what is expected of an indoor canine family member so I’ll need a Forever Family with the time, patience, and dedication to teach me (using positive-reinforcement techniques) what is expected of such a large gal as myself.  Don’t fret as I have a head start - while I was with my foster family, I didn’t have any interest in pottying inside (that would sure be impolite!) and I was friendly (although somewhat hesitant initially) with all folks I met.  I have quite the playful, puppy-like personality and I look forward to an active family who will enjoy all of my goofy puppy-antics!  I have yet to meet any young kids or cats so, like all adoptable pups, I’ll need to meet all future family members before making a life-long commitment.

Will you be the happy ending to my RAGS to RICHES story?  I have a lifetime of love to give and I’d love to start doling it out ASAP…so please email pawscoadoptions@gmail.com or fill out an adoption application on the Paws & Co. Adoptions website today!
