🌟 Meet Colt! 🌟 This heartwarming 6-month-old collie mix, weighing in at 45 pounds, has a spirit as grand as his paws! After facing unimaginable loss, with half of his litter washed away in the Kentucky floods and two of his remaining buddies succumbing to parvo, Colt is ready for his moment in the spotlight. He’s a blend of playful puppy energy and a gentle couch cuddler, eager to bring joy to a loving home! Colt has been soaking up new experiences in his foster home, where he has the adorable habit of mistaking himself for a toy poodle, trying to keep up with his smaller foster siblings! 😄 He’s friends with everyone—small dogs, a big dog, cats, and even kids! While he sometimes gets a little too enthusiastic during playtime, his fosters are helping him learn to be more mindful and gentle. 🌈 He’s also housebroken, crate trained, and nailing down the basics like sit, shake, and down. His daily leash training is getting him prepped to be the ultimate walking, hiking, or running companion! 🏃‍♂️ Colt can be shy in new situations but with a little time and patience, he becomes his joyful self again, showering his new family with love. ❤️ When he isn’t curled up next to you like a cozy weighted blanket, he’s out frolicking in the backyard, playing tug-of-war, or giving tiny concerts with his squeaky toys! 🎶 If a loyal adventure buddy with a soft side sounds like just what the doctor ordered, then Colt is ready to steal hearts (and probably a cozy spot on your couch!)! ### Important Adoption Requirements: - Must live within 80 miles of Adams, NY. - Previous/current pets must be up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered. - Will need to bring Colt back for additional vet care before adoption. - Should have time to socialize and train a new pup! - Ideal homes would have playfully calm environments, especially with teenagers or older kids, and a fenced yard is preferred but not required! 💖 Colt is currently being fostered and available for adoption with a donation of $500.
