My story

　　Draco is a loving 1 year old boxer/black mouth cur mix. He was brought to a shelter in New Mexico as a stray. After his past family never came to pick him up, he was left with no where to go. We knew sweet Draco needed to come to Colorado to find his forever family. He will be a great companion, and is cute as a button!! From the past shelter: Poor Draco was brought in as a stray to the shelter in New Mexico, he did have owners that were notified that he was at the shelter. The bad news is, they never came back to the shelter to pick him up and we don't think they ever plan to. So sweet Draco had been sitting at the shelter waiting on his family this whole time. Despite the heartbreak this poor guy is feeling, he is very friendly and social. He's energetic but does know when it's time to calm down and relax. He would love an active home to take him for fun outdoor adventures or to show him off at some dog friendly spots! If his adorable mug doesn't cheer you up, I'm not sure what else will!From his foster:Draco is a sweet heart, with lots of love to give. He loves to be active and play. He is young and still shows a lot of potential to train. He needs a home with a yard or family that is active with him. He has a lot of love to give. He can be scared and anxious when leaving him alone, as it seems he may have had abdonment or neglect from previous owners. He still jumps up and barks at strangers entering a house. He might not be best for young little kids, however, with proper training and love you would do great with a family that will love him! He really grows on you, and is sweet heart more and more everyday. I hope you finds a really good home!Here is a couple video clips of sweet Draco: /watch?v=pr47VGsyri8&feature=youtu.be/watch?v=vg5mz8P-3Io&feature=youtu.beThis sweet boy will be available at our adoption event this coming Saturday at the Fort Collins Petco 2211 S. College Ave from 10am-1pm. If you are interested in this friendly boy, please submit an application through our website aaanimalrescue.org. Please feel free to email with any questions [email protected] and size disclosure: As a rescue all of our dogs come to us from high-kill shelters or other rescues, so we do not get a lot of background or information on these dogs. We occasionally receive the mother with the puppies, but in most cases both parents are unknown. Because of this we do not know the full breeding of the dogs. We are required to list the dogs based on the breeds provided to us on their records, but they are all mixed breeds as far as we know, and we cannot guarantee the actual breeds of any of these dogs. Since the full breeding of the dogs is unknown we can also only give you an educated guess on the full-grown size of the dogs. All of the current information we have on the dogs is listed in their bio above. More information may be available at our adoption event, since a lot of the fosters turn in report cards on how the dog has done in their care when they drop them off. Adoption Process: If you are interested in adopting from us, the first step of our adoption process is to fill out an application online at http://aaanimalrescue.org/adoption_app.html. It takes us 24-48 hours to process your application and get back to you, via email. Applications turned in Friday afternoon or Saturday morning will not be processed since we are preparing for or at our adoption event. We do have applications on site at our events, but are not always able to approve them at that time and many of the dogs will already have holds on them, so we suggest you fill out an application prior to attending an adoption event. We can place a hold on one dog per approved applicant after a deposit fee has been received, please do not ask to hold a dog if you have not turned in an application and been approved, for the first hour of our adoption event, so that they can get the first chance to meet and hopefully adopt that dog. After the first hour of the event all dogs are available on a first come, first serve basis. If you already have an approved application on file, there will just be more paperwork and the adoption fee at the event, but you will be able to take home the dog/puppy that day. Since we are foster based and do not have a location, our dogs are only available to meet at our events, unless otherwise noted.
