This dog’s story was made possible by our pals at NutriSource. Sniff out their new Element Series dog food, now on shelves at an independent pet retailer near you. Designed to provide a dog’s body with full nutrition, it’s ideal for active dogs like Pepe. In fact, Pepe’s adopter’ll get their paws on $100 worth of Element dog food (and his rescue gets a NutriSource bundle too!).
Name: Pepe
Stats: 4.5-year-old Great Pyrenees/Border Collie mix
Location: Denver
Rescue: MaxFund Animal Adoption Center
Sidewalk Dog: OK, we’re in ruv. Tell us more!
MaxFund: Pepe is a tall order who loves attention, belly scratches, sunbathing outside. He’s basically an aspiring farm dog in the city. (He actually lived on a farm in a previous home and ADORED it.)
Out of all our current pups at this moment, Pepe is the one with the most nicknames: Bubba, Peps, Senor Pepe, Fluffy Monster, and Fluffster. Can you tell we love the guy?
SWD: Adopter gets to add the next nickname! What else is he into?
MaxFund: His favorite activities are swimming, hiking, fetching, and napping on any surface. Pepe loves to romp around with toys in his mouth–the squeakier, the better. He also enjoys car rides, especially when you’re taking him on an adventure!
SWD: And what about his activity level?
MaxFund: Since Pepe used to live on a farm, he would thrive with a large yard. He’s a big boi with lots of energy! He will be a grrr-eat adventure partner for hikes, swims, and any other outdoor activities.
SWD: Active hoomans–check. What about his home?
MaxFund: His perfect home would include confident humans who are not scared of his size, and can provide him with the dedication and structure he needs to be the best canine citizen. Pepe doesn’t like when people touch his toys, and would be best as a sole dog due to his resource guarding tendencies.
MaxFund only adopts in Colorado. If you are interested in meeting Pepe, please call the shelter directly to learn more about him. Looking for another way to support Pepe? Buy a Denver Dog-Friendly Summer Brewery Pass and we’ll donate 5% of the cost back to his rescue! $25 for 25 beers–it’s a real two-fur-one.
