My name is Scarlet, and I am 4 years old and weigh about 20 pounds. I need a new home because I was released from a breeder. I am being fostered in Denver, CO.

I will be upfront that I am a scared little girl who needs time and patience to know that my humans and surroundings are safe.

I’m looking for the most special home. I need someone who is very patient and very kind, someone who will let me go at my own pace. Not big expectations that I am going to sit by you, give you kisses or let you pet me the first couple of weeks. I’m scared of hands, but my foster mom has been working with me, and she can give me scritches under my chin.

I would do best in a home with another dog, so I can learn how to be a dog. I also find confidence and security in my four legged friends.

I also need a home with a backyard and regular access to it, either through a doggie door or someone who can let me out frequently.

I don’t have any interest in toys yet. I’m still figuring out what fun is.

I’m crate trained, and my crate is definitely my safe space.

I need a quiet home where I can slowly come out of my shell. I don’t need much. I just need patience, kindness, and time. With the right people (and maybe a dog friend to show me the ropes), I know I’ll blossom.

Here's a little more about me:
Housetrained? I’m mostly housebroken, but I may have accidents if it’s been too long and I’m not in my crate.
Leash-trained? I’m afraid to get on the leash, but once I’m on it, I do okay.
Rides well in car? yes
Good with other dogs? absolutely yes and a requirement
Good with cats? yes
Good with young children? very shy so no
Good with strangers? no
Shy or confident? shy
Barks? no
Apartment qualified? no
Any Special needs or Health Issues? none
Adoption Fee? $ 375

The adoption process starts with an Online Adoption Application you can find at ''https://www.adoptaboston.com/adoption-application.

All our dogs are spayed/neutered (if six months and older), up to date on rabies and distemper, heartworm tested, and microchipped. Other medical needs diagnosed while in foster care are also treated prior to adoption.

MABTR requires a fenced in area from families who own their home, however we DO adopt to apartment complexes and communities where fences are not permitted due to leases and covenants. In these cases a leash law must be enforced. We do not accept invisible fencing.

MABTR only adopts to families residing in NE, CO, MO, KS, IA, WY, SD, ND, ID, UT, MT, MN, and NW AR due to the lack of volunteer support in other states, no exception even if you are willing to drive.
