My Story
Hi! I'm Coral! I have been in Colorado for 8 months now, so not exactly a "NATIVE" as you all like to brag about, but I am a Colorado girl at heart waiting patiently for my perfect furrever home! I don't know why I've been waiting so long, because I'm such a sweetheart and a good girl who just wants love. I'm fully house trained and even learned to ring a bell when I want to go out. I take treats very gently and eat well alongside my foster brother (the furry one, of course!). I'm also very comfortable in my kennel, and I often go inside it on my own for a comfy snooze.
I'm a little over 1 year old, medium build, athletic, and I love to be outside in the fresh air exploring. Perhaps we could be hiking or running buddies? But I'd also be just fine with a walk around the neighborhood and some nice games of fetch. My day job is wrestling with my big dog foster brother. You could call me his personal trainer. Aside from that, some of my favorite hobbies include fetch, chewing bones, and chasing those pesky squirrels. I also love a good game of tug-of-war! I'm basically the perfect package big dog attitude and athleticism packaged tightly in a manageable and compact 35-40 lbs! When I'm not wrestling with my foster brother, I can usually be found lounging next to the humans and following them around. I recently also had a foster baby puppy brother, and we also enjoyed playing tug with toys and wrestling with each other! Humble brag alert: I have the softest velveteen ears and shiny, healthy coat with tuxedo markings on my chest. Though I can sometimes get a tad excited on my leash, the humans say I'm doing a good job learning to heel, and for the most part I'm a really good walker, so I guess that's another checkmark in the *awesome* category for me! I have three human kids in my foster family, so the bonus is that I am used to lots of activity and lots of their friends coming and going. And good newsI haven't met anyone I didn't like!
My foster human family hasn't figured out why I got named Coral, but maybe it's because I'm part sea lion? My favorite wrestling moves involve repeatedly dive rolling and somersaulting under my furry brother, like a sea lion escaping a shark. Or, maybe it's because I roll on my back and hold my toys in my paws up in the air like an otter? They also think I might be part cat, as I do enjoy a good perch from which to sneak attack or pounce on my toys or playmates. I might also be part frog? I lay with my back legs like a froggo doggo all the time, which I've been told is REALLY adorbs . Either way, my papers have me listed as a lab mix. What EXACTLY I'm mixed with is an inter-species mystery just waiting for a DNA test. Come meet me, and I can show you how incredible I really am, regardless of my mix! I'll be super excited to meet you!
