Corey-ADOPTION PENDING Maltese & Poodle Mix Boulder, CO

There are things that people do in this world...and the rest of us just shake our heads in wonder. Such is the case of the incredible Corey. On a very hot day in Oklahoma City, Fefe (a very loving and compassionate owner of a grooming salon) looks out the window of her shop to see a bright orange mass of matted fur tied by a cord to a pole. Confused as to what this orange mass was...she walked across the street to find that it was a dog...dyed and losing his life in the blazing sun. Fefe acted immediately and scooped the drooping body up and rushed into her shop. It took months of TLC... mineral baths, medication and just time for the toxic dye to leave Corey's bloodstream. Through it all...the true wonder was the positive attitude, love toward all and bravery that Corey displayed. At about 3.5 years old and 12 lbs, Corey is a very unusual guy - there was never a moment..through all the treatments...that there was a growl or a nip - nothing but gratitude and adoration for all those that helped him through his pain. Now Corey has almost attained the gorgeous white, cotton-soft coat of a Maltese. But more amazing...his experience has left no scar of sadness or aggression! Corey is the kindest, most wonderful guy we could ever imagine. His exceptional temperament extends to all groups...he LOVES kids, other dogs and virtually anyone who treats him with kindness and respect. This little guy has been through SO much that we know there is that perfect home waiting right around the corner. He would be overjoyed with gentle love and attention! We envision Corey in a home where he is truly a member of a family who spends lots of time with him. He would be the greatest partner for walks, car rides and almost anything where a super-friendly pup is welcome. He would be a gift to gentle, dog-loving children who love to cuddle and snuggle with a great fuzzy guy. He would also be wonderful with a retired couple or individual who enjoy the company of a very engaging companion. Corey is a non-shedding pup who will require periodic grooming and a very healthy diet to keep his coat shining and matt-free. Corey is arriving on transport in Denver in early November. Applications are currently being accepted for this exceptional family companion.
