In the shelter’s words

Meet Flash — a gentle giant discovering just how good life can be. Flash is a 5-year-old Staffordshire terrier who had never lived in a home. He spent more than 500 days in a shelter because he was part of an animal abuse court case. The shelter was his first experience with consistent housing. But then they ran out of space, and Flash ran out of time. One of our current fosters advocated for him, determined to help him get his chance. When a foster family stepped up in Durango, Colorado, his advocate volunteered to drive him there. Together, we were able to save Flash from euthanasia and give him the opportunity to finally experience life in a home. Boy is he good at it ;) Now, his foster family is watching his sweet, hilarious personality emerge a little more every day. Whatever Flash lacks in speed, he makes up for with his kind, unassuming nature. He’s a gentle giant who is happiest wherever you are. A quiet day lounging around or a busier day with things to do—Flash is happy to be your companion. And this boy is funny! His sassy side-eye, straight-legged runs, happy tail wags, and rolls on the ground keep his fosters laughing. He’s easygoing, incredibly loyal, and full of wonderfully goofy mannerisms. Flash has been easy to train and already has a growing collection of tricks. He tries his best to be a good boy, loves being loved on, and has so much affection to give. After more than 500 days of waiting, Flash is ready for a forever family to share everyday moments, laugh at his antics, and give him a place to belong. Currently fostered in Durango, Colorado.
