Adopt Forest Forest is located at Leslie A. Malone Center Forest Location: Leslie A. Malone Center Sex: Male Current Weight: 61.4 lbs Looks Like: Border Collie-Mix Color: Black-White Age: 9 Years Intake Date: 02/21/2026 ID: A1346202 About Forest Hoo boy, one look in those wise eyes and you can see why we think Forest is a pretty special guy. He’s a favorite of the volunteer dog walkers because of his excellent leash manners and easy, gentle style of walking. Forest can be pretty shy when meeting new people but once he’s leashed and in the play yard he comes alive! He loves chasing balls and showing off his outfielder skills; he jumps up and catches a high fly ball with ease. Forest is curious about other dogs but is not a fan of rowdy, big dogs jumping on him and wanting him to play. Hey, he’s done all that and wants a calmer lifestyle! He’s a quiet, older guy with grown-up manners. He would be happiest in a home with older children and as the only other dog in your home or with another easy-going buddy. He is so affectionate and loves pets, scratches and treats in no particular order. Come meet him and try out all three! Adoption Fee: $100 Adopt Me Support My Care Share Facebook TikTok Instagram
We recommend starting your search for a new pet online. If you see a pet you want to meet, note their location and write down their ID number. We have three adoption facilities: Leslie A Malone Center in Denver, The Buddy Center in Castle Rock, and the San Luis Valley Animal Center in Alamosa. Adoptions are on a first come, first served basis. We regularly update our available cats, dogs, and small mammals online, but there’s always a possibility that the pet you saw on our site will find a home before you get a chance to visit.
