Areas A Soft Place To Land, Inc. - Colorado Chapter serves

We are an all foster home based rescue, we do not have a facility where we house the dogs. All dogs are fully vetted prior to adoption. We have an online application on our website, www.softplacetoland.org and we ask each interested party to fill out an application on the dog (s) they are interested in meeting. We prefer to adopt our dogs out locally, generally within 2 hours, one way, of our home base of Ft. Collins Colorado. We do allow out of area adoptions in special circumstances but we do have additional requirements for out of area adoptions.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
