Denver is a Nugget of Joy
When Denver learned the Nuggets play in Ball Arena, he was over the moon. A 675,000 square foot arena full of balls he could play with – as long as he shared with some guys named Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. What more could a Labrador Retriever-Border Collie blend want? But then he learned the balls in Ball Arena were far too large for him to play with. His new playmates kept throwing them into these hoops so he couldn’t even play fetch. Even worse, Ball Arena wasn’t even named for balls – it was named after some corporation that produces glass jars and glass jar accessories. Needless to say Denver had never felt more disappointment in his 6 months of life. The only thing that could put a smile back on his face is to be taken home – preferably on a country road – to the place where he belongs: your house!
Denver is waiting to meet you at Helen Woodward Animal Center. He’s been altered and is up-to-date on all of his vaccinations. He is microchipped for identification as with all pets adopted from Helen Woodward Animal Center.
Helen Woodward Animal Center is located at 6461 El Apajo Road in Rancho Santa Fe. Kennels are open Monday to Thursday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Friday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information call 858-756-4117, option #1.
Helen Woodward Animal Center pets come from a variety of sources, such as the transfer of animals from public shelters to relieve overcrowding, working with local dog and cat rescues, as well as owner surrender. Every animal in our pet adoption program has received a medical examination, spay or neuter surgery, vaccinations, tons of TLC and a microchip. Our goal is to adopt our pets into loving and permanent homes. Helen Woodward Animal Center Adoption Counselors are here to help you choose a pet who will be your perfect match for life.
