Mr. Cooper came to us on Valentines Day in 2014. He met us at the door of the fosters home with a smile and the cutest head tilt that captivated us. Cooper enjoyed many wonderful Colorado adventures living in a rural community in a home [...]
I adopted Avery from Safe Harbor Lab Rescue in February 2017. When I lived in Pine. Colorado I volunteered with Avery at Porter Adventist Hospital in Denver in their Paws for a Cause pet visitation program. In 2018 I moved to Fruita, Colorado and got [...]
