Hi there! My name is Shelby, I am a mix between a Great Dane and Mountain Cur (Google it) – or so my vet tells me based on my unique markings. 

I was found by my parents on February 15th, 2011 which is the anniversary of when they started dating. I was rescued from a high-kill shelter in San Antonio, TX and was thrilled when we quickly moved to Colorado, where my parents are originally from. They started dating at a local spot called Shelby’s – hence my awesome name – and yes it can be a boys name too!

I have loved every day in Colorado so far, especially our home in the mountains and the snow; I have so much fun in the snow! I have a ton of energy and love to play with my toys. Some of them last longer than others because I like to play rough, so often get new ones. When I go to the dog park, none of the other dogs believe that I am only 5 months old at first because I am quite big, but then they see my puppy tendencies when I begin to play.

Everyone tends to fall in love with me as soon as they meet me…my personality is quite magnetic!
