[Picture] 2/6/2012   [12-02-002]   Grizzly
Labrador Retriever X,  black with white chest,  Male neutered,  Adult  
STRAY:
Raider and Grizzly are owner surrendered because of their owner's bad life choices. Grizzly's constant companion is Raider, a cowdog x. They don't have to be adopted together but it would be nice. Grizzly would at least like another dog to keep him company. Grizzly is about 2 years old, a bit chunky from not enough exercise, but a very handsome specimen none-the-less. Not quite a purebred, but pretty darn close.
[Picture] 2/1/2012   [12-02-001]   Raider
Aussie/Border Collie X,  black/white,  Male neutered,  Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Raider and Grizzly are owner surrendered because of their owner's bad life choices. Raider's constant companion is Grizzly, a black Lab cross. They don't have to be adopted together but it would be nice. Raider would at least like another dog to keep him company. His heritage is Australian shepherd and border collie. He has a docked tail. Raider would benefit from a good grooming to rid him of his dredlocks and follow-up brushings will keep his beautiful fur silky. What pretty fur it is -- basic black with black spots on white legs and chest -- worthy of a king.
[Picture] 1/5/2012   [12-01-001]   Buster
Pit Bull,  brown brindle/white,  Male neutered,  8 yrs.  
STRAY: outside of Butte
"Buster" was picked up on I-90 near Butte by a commuter coming from Billings to Anaconda. A microchip from the Animal Medical Clinic, Clarksville TN from May 2004 has so far been a dead end. This boy is very gentle, is at least 7-8 years old, and has white on his face. Because he was found on the Interstate, we are hoping some one reported him missing maybe in Bozeman, Whitehall, or in Butte. Please help us reunite this old guy with his owner!
[Picture] 1/4/2012   [12-01-002]   Carebear
Jack Russell Terrier X,  black with a touch of white,  Female,  1 Yr  
ABANDONED:
Carebear's Mom was a Jack Russell Terrier, and she got her pure black coloring from her Dad, whoever that was. She is a tiny thing, probably not more than 10-15 pounds soaking wet. She is Kelly's (another Pintler adoptable dog) sister. She loves cuddling, especially in this cold weather. What a sweet little girl. Out on a test drive, 02/02/2012.
[Picture] 12/15/2011   [11-12-014]   Brownie
Pit Bull X,  light milk chocolate brindle,  Female spayed,  8 weeks  
STRAY: Born at the A-DL County shelter
One of four pups of Precious, born at the County shelter three days after their mother arrived as a stray. The tails were docked previous to their arrival at Pintler Pets. Their Mom is super sweet and a petite girl. We say "pitbull" because of their coloring, but we could just as easily say the breed is "sweetie-pies". Brownie is the girl of the group with unique, very faint brindle coloring and a white chest. Of course, they will not be available until they are weaned, but we are taking applications for them and their lovely Mom.

STRAY: Born at the A-DL County shelter
One of four pups of Precious, born at the County shelter three days after their mother arrived as a stray. The tails were docked previous to their arrival at Pintler Pets. Their Mom is super sweet and a petite girl. We say "pitbull" because of their coloring, but we could just as easily say the breed is "sweetie-pies". Fudge is the biggest of the group and is inquisitive. Of course, they will not be available until they are weaned but we are taking applications for them and their lovely Mom. Out on a test drive to Great Falls, 02/04/2012.

One of four pups of Precious, born at the County shelter three days after their mother arrived as a stray. The tails were docked previous to their arrival at Pintler Pets. Their Mom is super sweet and a petite girl. We say "pitbull" because of their coloring, but we could just as easily say the breed is "sweetie-pies".

Their Mom is super sweet and a petite girl. We say "pitbull" because of their coloring, but we could just as easily say the breed is "sweetie-pies". Shadow is a dark brindle with a little white and is very outgoing. Of course, they will not be available until they are weaned but we are taking applications for them and their lovely Mom. Out on a test drive to Cardwell, 02/04/2012.
[Picture] 12/12/2011   [11-12-013]   Precious
Pit Bull X,  brown brindle/white,  Female spayed,  1 Yr  
STRAY: Stewart Street, Anaconda
Precious is truly a sweetheart and is such a good Mom to her pups. This poor dog was found -- terribly thin and pregnant. She gave birth to four puppies 3 days later in the County shelter. She is a caring and gentle mother dog. Much of her youth has been taken up being a mother; it will be such a pleasure seeing her once again able to be silly and carefree. Precious looks forward to being a very loyal and happy companion as soon as her pups are weaned and in homes of their own. The family is in foster care.
[Picture] 11/26/2011   [11-11-017]   Ebony
Labrador/Husky X,  black with touch of white,  Female spayed,  3 months  
STRAY: transfer from Browning, MT
Like many of these pups, Ebony is looking forward to being a part of a household where she will get good food, clean water, and will be trained as to be able to enjoy all the world has to offer and not be a prisoner stuck in a yard because she was never taught social skills. Out on a test drive, 01/28/2012.
[Picture] 11/26/2011   [11-11-016]   Jessica
Cowdog X,  tricolor - brown/black/white,  Female spayed,  3-4 mos.  
STRAY: transfer from Browning, MT
Jessica, Quinn and Blaze are sisters. Jessica has those wonderful polka dots and more brown on her face. Pretty, very smart pups!
[Picture] 11/6/2011   [11-11-001]   Kelly
Terrier X,  glossy black,  Male neutered,  1 Yr  
OWNER TURN IN: Owner surrender, about 1 year old. Kelly wants to be where you are at all times, preferably in your lap. Fortunately he is small and very portable. Is in foster care with Coral so call the shelter for more information on Kelly or to meet him, call 406-563-7464.
[Picture] 10/12/2011   [11-10-011]   Colby
Cowdog/Husky X,  tan/white,  Male neutered,  7 Mo  
STRAY: transfer from Browning, MT
Transfer from Browning MT because of overpopulation there. This litter came from the shelter, so we don't know much about them except they are cute as all get out. Colby is the only male of the litter. He is smooth coated and more tan than the rest.
[Picture] 10/4/2011   [11-10-003]   Cookie
American Bulldog X,  white/rust,  Female spayed,  4 Yr  
OWNER TURN IN: Arrived along with Casey, an owner surrender because of "landlord problems". Gee, who would guess that a landlord wouldn't be thrilled to have two big dogs (one of which is obviously not spayed) in their rental. Cookie is a big, strong marshmallow who needs an experienced owner to teach her, in a patient manner, the ins and outs of being a social butterfly. She does not like cats however so please, a cat-free zone would work best.
[Picture] 10/3/2011   [11-10-001]   Sammie
Jack Russell Terrier X,  white/rust,  Female spayed,  1 Yr  
OWNER TURN IN: Sammie is a Jack Russell terrier or, more likely, a mix. She is tall for a Jack and her tail curls over her back. She would do best in a household where she gets lots of exercise, but is not over stimulated. A terrier savvy house would be ideal. She needs a refresher course on house training, or maybe just a routine where she knows what is expected of her.
[Picture] 9/25/2011   [11-09-019]   Joey
Wire-haired Terrier X,  black/white,  Male,  less than 1 yr.  
STRAY: transfer from Browning, MT
Joey is a shy one and needs to be socialized to the great things that life has to offer. He is cute as a button (albeit looks a little bit like an alien) and loves to play with other dogs. He would do best in a cat-free home as he likes to chase them. Joey needs a dog-savvy home where he can bloom.
[Picture] 9/12/2011   [11-09-012]   Big Smokey
Great Dane X,  fawn/black,  Male neutered,  Young Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Arrived 09/12/2011; owner surrender because of a personality conflict between two dogs in the home. Big Smokey has great manners and is well trained. He is choosy about his doggie friends; he likes female dogs a lot. Out on a test drive to Georgetown Lake.
[Picture] 9/1/2011   [11-09-005]   Jackson
Labrador Retriever X,  light yellow,  Male neutered,  1 Yr  
STRAY: transfer from Browning, MT
Jackson is a happy dog even though life has thrown him a curve ball. His right eye has an untreated infection and may need to be removed. That certainly won't dampen Jackson's indomitable spirit. Any donations toward his surgery will be most appreciated, if surgery is needed... then he will need a home! "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated" Gandhi. Update: Jackson had his eye surgery and is on the mend. Out on a test drive.
[Picture] 8/24/2011   [11-08-021]   Dena
Rottweiler/Cowdog X,  black/rust,  Female spayed,  4 Yr  
OWNER TURN IN: Dena had been with us once before (in June 2010) was adopted, and then was given to a relative who then couldn't keep her. Geez, let's find this girl a permanent home
[Picture] 8/4/2011   [11-08-001]   Jasper
Retriever X,  black,  Male neutered,  Adult   Collar: multi-colored
OWNER TURN IN: Jasper is a part of our medium-length fur, black, handsome as all get out, young retriever-cross contingent. One ear up and one ear down, this boy is ready to go.
[Picture] 8/3/2011   [11-08-003]   Kaydee
Border Collie/Retriever X,  black/white chest,  Female spayed,  Adult  
STRAY: transfer from Browning, MT
Kaydee is a lovely young lady with the looks of a retriever with some Border collie to boot. She may be Smoke's mother.
[Picture] 8/3/2011   [11-08-004]   Jake Sr.
Heeler X,  red merle,  Male neutered,  Older Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Poor Jake Sr. is one of the oldest dogs that we have gotten from Browning. He just wants to hang out in peace and be someone's friend. He has the scars on his face to prove that he is a lover not a fighter by choice. What a rough life he must have had. He hangs out in our office and is a mellow guy. He doesn't like being cooped up with puppies or "in your face" dogs. He minds well, is past the days of skiing and long distance running, but enjoys a nice amble around the grounds.
[Picture] 7/28/2011   [11-07-004]   Windsor
Retriever X,  black/white chest,  Male neutered,  3 Yr  
STRAY: 900 block 4th Street, Anaconda
Windsor is a handsome, regal-looking boy with fine, long hair and features that are reminiscent of a flat-coated retriever. He is a good dog looking for a good home.
[Picture] 7/21/2011   [11-07-005]   Dude
Golden Retriever/Chow X,  reddish gold,  Male neutered,  3-4 yrs.  
OWNER TURN IN: Dude can't catch a break. He was adopted from us twice. This last time, his owner's were moving and decided Dude couldn't go along. Nothing was wrong with him (well he could lost some weight by getting some exercise and 1/2 rations). He is a nice sized dog and is sedate enough to keep just about anybody company... just give him a couple of walks a day (for both of your good) and he will be happy.
[Picture] 7/19/2011   [11-07-003]   AJ
Heeler/Dane X,  blue merle,  Male neutered,  Young Adult  
ABANDONED: Town Pump, Anaconda
Stray (abandoned?) at the East Side Town Pump, Anaconda. AJ is shy and tucks his tail in new situations. He needs a 101 course in confidence. He is a handsome dog with finely chiseled features and a beautiful, multicolored short, easy-to-care-for coat. Out on a test drive.
[Picture] 7/2/2011   [11-07-002]   Sadie
Pit Bull,  white/red,  Female spayed,  Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Sadie is a character and likes to watch people clean from her perch. She can jump and run now that she is thinner (she arrived obese). Sadie takes a small, inexpensive thyroid pill daily and has been losing her extra weight. She loves all people but only likes some doggie friends.
[Picture] 6/20/2011   [11-06-014]   Tucker
Hound/Heeler X ?,  red merle/red,  Male neutered,  Young Adult  
STRAY: Town Pump, east of Anaconda
Tucker is a hound, has a hound woo-woo, and has the goofy personality of a hound. He is perfect for someone who likes the breed and has the knowledge to train him.
[Picture] 6/1/2011   [11-06-019]   Lady
Labrador Retriever,  black,  Female spayed,  Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Lady was with us last November as a stray. She was adopted but her new family felt she was too protective of them. It seems that she wants to be someone's one and only, but with some socialization, she will have to learn to "Play well with others". She looks like a purebred Lab but we can't be 100% certain.
[Picture] 5/3/2011   [11-05-005]   Sable
Cowdog/Border Collie X,  black/white,  Female,  Young Adult  
STRAY:
Sable is quite the ultimate Montana dog. She is a perfect size, about 40 pounds, mostly a cowdog arrangement, with maybe some Lab thrown in for good measure. She has a docked tail that wags when she is glad to see you, and she is always glad to see you. She is a quick, smart little girl.
[Picture] 2/3/2011   [11-02-007]   Maisy
Cowdog/Shepherd X,  black with tinge of white,  Female spayed,  3 Yr  
STRAY:
Maisy is shy and quite beautiful, with regal ears, a chiseled head and a quick mind. She looks mostly Border collie with some shepherd in her.
[Picture] 12/20/2010   [10-12-009]   Birney
Pit Bull X,  brown/white,  Female spayed,  5 1/2 mos.  
OWNER TURN IN: Birney finds herself with us simply because her owners didn't have a fence to keep her home. She is a sweet unassuming thing, with beautiful, soulful brown eyes and a cute pink speckled nose. She is not very large, and is in good physical condition. Sometimes, if you look at her build and coloring, you may see some Beagle or some Boxer in her heritage. Never the less, she is a keeper (if you have a fence).
[Picture] 8/14/2010   [10-08-002]   Mike
Labrador Retriever,  yellow,  Male neutered,  5 yrs.  
STRAY:
Mike has been a guest at the County animal shelter before and his name was "Vike". This time his owner declined to come and look for him to reclaim him. Mike seems like a happy, loyal sort of chap; can't say the same for his previous owner. Mike is the ultimate Lab; big, goofy, always happy to do just about anything. Mike is not fond of cats.
[Picture] 8/11/2010   [10-08-003]   Kato
Labrador Retriever,  chocolate,  Male neutered,  Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Kato is a great dog, a big lovable goof with one Achilles heel; he is terrified of lightening and has some separation anxiety. He needs someone home most of the time and a dependable weatherman to predict the next storm. A little Acepromazine sedative wouldn't hurt either! For anyone who likes Labs, Kato fills every expectation. He is a big, wonderful chocolate kiss.
[Picture] 5/29/2010   [10-05-024]   Daisy
Pointer X,  white/red,  Female spayed,  Young Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Daisy is a lucky girl to be with us. She is a superb physical specimen and is quite sweet. She is rippling with muscle but is meek as a lamb.
[Picture] 5/8/2010   [10-05-002]   Bear
Labrador X,  chocolate,  Male neutered,  1 Yr  
STRAY: Dixon St.
Bear is a sweet attentive dog who has obviously been beaten too much in the past. He winces when you raise your hand to give him a treat or to throw a stick. He is young enough to forget about his past and responds well to a little kindness. He is not mean at all. He has the athletic build of a greyhound and the coloring of a chocolate Lab.
[Picture] 3/6/2010   [10-03-008]   Carson
Collie/Shepherd X,  reddish brown,  Male neutered,  1 Yr  
OWNER TURN IN: Transfer from a Wyoming rescue group who had to close down because of a death in the family. Carson is about 1 year old and brother to Sis. Both Sis and Carson are quite terrified and are in need of a quiet, patient household. They both seem to want to be loved and to love, but whatever they were exposed to in their past has made them extremely skittish. It will take time for them to trust people again, but it is not impossible. Carson is the more shy of he two and will need a great amount of patience and understanding.
[Picture] 1/7/2010   [10-01-002]   Hondo
German Shepherd X,  brown/black,  Male neutered,  6 yrs.  
OWNER TURN IN: Hondo (previously known as Conda)is at Pintler Pets because his owner could not have him at his new rental. He has a little gray on his muzzle reflecting the wisdom that comes with age. He is a sweet dog with a very expressive face and good manners. Hondo reminds us of at least one dog we have known in our lives.
[Picture] 1/7/2010   [10-01-001]   Jackie
Lab X,  black,  Female spayed,  Young Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Jackie is a very fine-boned, lovely dog who just needs a chance in a stable home. Already a mother at too young an age, she needs to experience her own youth and adventures.
[Picture] 8/25/2009   [09-08-010]   Griz
Lab/Pointer,  dark brown/white with spots,  Male neutered,  Young Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Griz deserves a second look. He is a fabulous dog: big and strong and observant. He is Cougar's brother. These boys are both great dogs. Griz has more of the physique of a pointer. He was originally identified as a hound cross, but with those spots and that "eye", he seems more like a GSP / Labrador cross. Griz has a beautiful white, spotted chest and white on his legs. Update: Griz is being sponsored by the Mark Softich Family of Anaconda.
[Picture] 8/15/2009   [09-08-008]   Cougar
Labrador/Bluetick Hound X,  black,  Male neutered,  5 yrs.  
OWNER TURN IN: Cougar could benefit from a long daily run and an active lifestyle. He is a big, goofy guy who is loves his dog treats. He would stand on his head, if he could, for a dog biscuit. Update: Cougar is being sponsored by the Mark Softich Family of Anaconda.
[Picture] 7/7/2009   [09-07-003]   Herc
Border Collie/Pointer X,  white/black,  Male neutered,  Young Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: We don't know the exact circumstances, but Gizzy and Herc were both surrendered for not getting along with the kids in the family. Herc is a nice sized dog: perfect for camping, hiking, riding or just lounging. Herc has a pretty coat, and looks somewhat like a pointer.
[Picture] 8/15/2008   [08-08-002]   Molly
Labrador Retriever X,  black with white toes,  Female spayed,  Young Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Poor Molly came to us as a shy pup from Browning MT, was adopted, and has now been returned to us as a shy adult at 11 months old. She needs a gentle hand and some time to come out of her shell. She is very unsure of herself and has not been shown the good things in life. She was surrendered because her owners were moving. Update: Molly is being sponsored by her Guardian Angel from Washington State.
[Picture] 8/7/2008   [08-08-001]   Dirk
Lab/Shepherd X,  black/white,  Male neutered,  Adult  
OWNER TURN IN: Dirk is another of our alumni who has come back to us. He and his brother Champ were here last November and he was adopted in February of 2008. Dirk is back with us because he chews things. Update: The person who adopted Dirk's brother reports he is doing very well. With exercise and a basket of chew toys, he has no bad habits. We hope for a similar home for Dirk. Update: Here is an updated photo as of 08/07/10! Update: A Guardian Angel is sponsoring the cost of Dirk's care. That's pretty cool.
