Afina Labrador Retriever Mix Aurora, CO

Afina, like the view behind her, is awesome! At 2.5 years of age, this 35-pound white and black beauty lives for life's next great adventure. Initially shy with new people, once she grew comfortable in her foster home, she revealed how loving, sweet and silly she can be. Her foster mom's coziest, cuddliest and most constant companion, even wiggling her entire body to show how happy she is, Afina also loves toys (especially her pineapple squeaky toy), playing chase around the yard with her favorite ball, and keeping herself endlessly entertained. Never one to deny herself the pleasure of napping to restore her doggy batteries, she's at her best when accompanying her foster mom on walks, walking to heel, on hikes and on camping trips. A well-mannered miss, who always sits politely for treats, she currently knows "sit," "down," "stay" and "place," and is almost fully house-trained. Preferring the company of women in a tranquil environment with no other animals, affable Afina now hopes to perfect the rest of her commands while adoringly accompanying her fur-ever person on all of life's great adventures.

Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure each pet finds the best possible home, we ask that you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application received in the order they're submitted and will contact you within 48 hours (please check your spam folder for our emails). If your home sounds like a good match for you and the pet, we will connect you with our dogs' foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit, then a "meet and greet" is set up. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to finalize the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives! A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you.

The adoption fee for this pet is $300. Our adoption fee covers the following:

Spay/neuter

Microchip

DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all DAPP boosters after adoption.

Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for any rabies vaccinations after adoption.

PLEASE NOTE: The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter. Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets. Here is some interesting info on breed identification: https://arrcolorado.org/category/puppy-dog-tips/
