Debbie

"Meet Debbie 🤍<br/><br/>Debbie is a 2-year-old, 40 lb shepherd mix with a tender heart and a playful spirit. She was adopted as a young pup and returned to our care a year later. Now that she’s 2, we know so much more about what she needs to truly thrive — and it’s a special, understanding home.<br/><br/>Debbie is looking for a calm environment with minimal visitors and no kiddos. She needs patience, consistency, and clear structure to help her feel safe and confident. Once she settles in, her goofy, loving personality really shines.<br/><br/>She would absolutely love a playful dog companion to help burn energy and build confidence. Debbie is an enthusiastic player and sometimes uses her teeth during play — think silly “love nibbles” that just need continued guidance and appropriate outlets.<br/><br/>One of her most endearing quirks? She has an emotional support tire (her beloved “wheel”) that she proudly carries around, chases, and will gently drop at your feet — sometimes right in your toes while you’re cooking — as her way of including you in the fun. It’s her comfort item and her joy all in one.<br/><br/>She also has a soft side: peanut butter and yogurt licked off a spoon are absolute favorites, and those quiet bonding moments mean the world to her.<br/><br/>Debbie isn’t for everyone — but for the right person who can offer patience, space, routine, and love, she will be a deeply loyal and entertaining companion. She just needs someone willing to meet her where she is and help her feel safe enough to blossom. 💛"<br/><br/>Debbie is being fostered in Fort Collins, Colorado.<br/><br/>*We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs.*<br/><br/>You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/debbie/. <br/><br/>You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.
