Morrissey

Morrissey is a 1.5-year-old, 35 lb rez dog, possibly lab mix. He might have some whippet, shepherd, Border collie or min pin. He is a loyal dog with a working breed personality and will be an awesome dog for a somewhat experienced owner. Like many Coloradoans, Morrissey is happiest outside. He … loves walks, hikes, and runs, and would probably love to follow you on horseback rides as well. He is very athletic and fast! He was born in foster care in September 2021, and all of his siblings found homes but him because he wasn’t as social. He’s grown up with plenty of time inside and is house-trained and crate trained. If you have an excess of throw pillows, he is happy to take a few off of your hands as toys, but if you’re not a fan of stuffing all over your carpet, consider creating him when unattended until he matures a bit more. He loves playing with balls and toys! Morrissey is a bit anxious, and a bit like a cat. He wants affection on his own terms, but can be very affectionate. New people can freak him out, and he will bark at visitors, so he would be great for someone who wants a little protection for their home or ranch. He definitely needs adequate exercise and mental stimulation and would not be great for a social butterfly in an apartment. He might enjoy van life if he could run around outside, as he rides well in a car and is a nice portable size! He does well out and about at events and meeting new people away from home, he just needs a confident and calm human and possibly a dog friend to help him be is best! Could that be you? Morrissey is located in Steamboat Springs with transport available to Boulder or surrounding areas. For more information email [email protected] or text/call 720-235-6863.
