Winston -Adopted
Updated: Aug 25
ADOPTABLE WINSTON Needs foster or forever home!
Winston's wonderful foster family has a very busy summer coming up so we urgently need to find Winston a new foster or forever home in Colorado. He has been in a foster home for nearly 12 months and really deserves to have his own family.
Winston is a sweet 3-yr-old male GSP mix. Our best guess is an adorable combination of GSP and Bluetick Coonhound.
Being GSP-lite, Winston has a lot of the great qualities of a GSP, without the vigorous exercise requirements! He is loyal, easy going, and loves having a human around to keep him company. He only needs a couple of 30–45 minute walks a day to stay happy and healthy. Whilst he loves a gentle trot alongside his family, he might not be the best choice for a seasoned marathon runner! He loves fetching a ball in the yard, walks nicely on a leash, and has great recall.
Winston bonds closely with his family, BUT he does find the noises and excitement of small humans a bit confusing, so he needs to be placed in a patient, adult-only home. He is fully house trained, knows basic commands and is very trainable and eager to learn new things. He does not need to sleep in a crate, but he likes to use it as a safe space if things get hectic around him.
Submissive dogs are Winston's preferred playmates. He will typically ignore a more dominant dog. He has not been exposed to cats, but given his demeanor, we think he would adapt to kitties. He is not a fan of car rides so he would be better suited to home where he can go out on hikes/walks without driving too much. He would love a fenced yard for ball games and playing with other family dogs.

Fostering saves lives:
We are always looking for foster homes so we can save wonderful GSPs from terrible situations where their welfare, or even their life, may be at risk. There is a constant stream of great dogs in desperate need who need rescue, but we cannot help them without foster families. We cover expenses such as food and vet fees.
