Available Adult CMDR Colorado Mountain Dogs

Some breeders offer fully trained adults CMD guardians, some people have life changes and need to rehome adult dogs, and some people have dogs that don’t fit in their situations, but who may flourish in another setting. Posts should specify these details. An experienced guardian has value, and placing a healthy price on your dog helps ensure his next home will value and be able to care for him or her.

Posts are $25, which can be purchased in our store.

SOLD Sept 15, 2024 Artemis and Diamond (STR Amaranth x CNK Bruinen) are litter mates and have been together with our family since they were puppies.   We are moving across country into very different living conditions, and we sadly have to find a new forever home for these two wonderful dogs.  They are four year old spayed and microchipped females.  Artemis is the smaller of the two, and Diamond a bit larger.  We live on five and a half acres in Wyoming, and they have had all that room to roam and love it.  They are family dogs, but I have noticed that they pretend we are their livestock and guard us (or the neighbor’s horses or our cat), so you may be able to train them to guard livestock but we would have to discuss whether that would be advisable or the best fit for them.   Diamond and Artemis absolutely love people, especially children, and are the most loving and tolerant dogs ever.  They have grown up with two young children and even jump on the in-ground trampoline with them and tolerate a gaggle of children jumping on them and hugging them.  They are good-natured, playful, sweet, smart, happy, loving and always at our side.  They spend the night inside and do not like to be separated from their humans.  They are fully house-trained and go to the groomers a few times a year.  They love to go for walks every day, and they love to travel with us when we go skiing or hiking.  I think they would be happiest with an active family or couple who has a bit of room for them to explore, but they don’t require much as long as you are dedicated to walking them daily and including them in your activities.  They get along well with other dogs and love to go to dog parks and play.  They also get along very well together and have established a healthy and loving relationship.  They would probably do best staying together.  If you are looking for loyal and wonderful companions, you will be so lucky to make these two part of your family.  Located in Cody, Wyoming.  We are happy to meet within a couple of hours or facilitate transport.  $1,500 for the pair.  For more information, please contact Tara 509-520-3469. 


POSTED SEPT 9, 2024 LPR Isla is looking for her new furever home. Isla turned 1 in July and just completed her first heat. She has a clean Wisdom Panel. Isla would ideally go to a home on a breeding contract as her genetics are just amazing! Isla is a young dominant female. She would do best as a working livestock guardian dog or general farm dog without other intact females. She was crate trained and house trained as a pup. Isla has a strong work ethic and loves being with her livestock. She is great with alpacas and goats. She is still working on chickens. Isla also loves her humans; big and small. For more information please contact Vanessa (970)409-2152


SOLD Posted August 27, 2024. Willow is one of the CMDR's first generation females who helped start our community!  UUU Willow of MMC, UUUMMC019F001G1, is poultry safe (chickens, ducks, turkeys), great with visitors, lives with goats, a horse, and small dogs, Wills is an absolute love.  She prefers to be outside here year-round, as we prefer that as well... but could happily live in a cool house!  Here she loves to just waltz in the house briefly, maybe once a month or so to check things out and then leave again, just to make sure things are all as she remembered.  She's eradicated our skunk population, alerts to and pursues aerial predators, and is a true matriarch on the ranch.  Anybody feels comfortable around her; one would call her bombproof and she has represented the breed locally at garden fairs and Head Start.  She is older now and does struggle on hot days - this summer solved with a good deep hole allowed under a shady deck and a full trough of water.  Last summer I brought her in for the cool basement floor.  She's good on car rides and stands well for grooming.  Loves EVERYBODY and knows she's the cutest.  Excellent in town - a toddler could lead her - she is obedient and tractable, gets along with all dogs and people, doesn't roam or test fences.  Has gained some weight since her spaying - now at about 125 lbs, and six years old.  As a beloved retired elder (had three litters), we're looking for a family home that can make sure she gets the properly fully attentive care, nutrition, and hydration.

Posted August 26, 2024… Lonan, MMC021M001G2, is three years old, neutered due to cryptorchidism.  My heart dog and pick of the litter, it's very hard to consider letting him go but for the right person he would be magic, and would make space for me to continue my CMD program on my dairy goat farm.  29" at the shoulder he has the look of a dire wolf, and the heart of a champion.  First on the perimeter and very athletic, he is a terrific guardian of the family, herd, and property. $2200 Milky Way Mountain Caprines, Crestone, CO.

SOLD Posted August 25, 2024 "W2E Toby of RCF (W2E022M001G2), is best described as a farmer's helper, a loyal companion, and a child's shadow. We raised Toby dog from a pup with another G4 male as his teacher (both still intact males). This 2.5 year old is an experienced homestead guardian in the mountains of the Front Range with a solid temperament, exceptional guarding abilities, and gentle nature. Toby is great around goats, pigs, other dogs, farm guests, and babies/children. He is electric fence trained when you need to keep him contained, but often we let him out to roam our homestead at night, protecting our beehives and livestock from bears, mountain lions, and bobcats. Toby will bark when he smells danger or senses predators are close, but doesn't incessantly bark at all hours of the night if there is nothing around. He is a loyal companion, obedient, and will easily walk on a leash when you need him to. His parents are W2E Lobo and UUU Biscuit of W2E. He would make a great addition to any homestead and could easily be an excellent guardian for any family farm with a little more acreage. Asking $900 for Toby dog.  Please contact Robert Farmer at 719-205-7186 or farmerrk77@gmail.com"

Oberon x Daisy fixed male and female ranch guardians. Age 2 in Oct. Perfect with goats, poultry, people. They keep mountain lions, bears, coyotes and foxes at bay. They do great with chickens, turkeys, and goats, but not horses or cattle. They play with our rat terriers on the daily, they do fine with guest dogs unless they look like a coyote. I would love for them to stay together as a pair if possible. They winter and summer outdoors and only need shelter.

SOLD April 20, 2024 BTA Skye is 4 years old, spayed, microchipped, and UTD on vaccines. Skye is a very strong guardian with on point instincts. She barks appropriately and is experienced with poultry, goats, alpacas, barn cats, other adult dogs and a fantastic mentor for young pups. Skye loves people, especially children. I am going to be very choosy on where she goes; she would be happiest going to a smaller farm or homestead where she can have lots of interactions with her people. She is house trained but is not content to be without livestock for long. We are located in Cotopaxi, CO. I am happy to meet within a couple of hours or recommend a great transport company.
