Story
Meet Octavia — Your Adventure Buddy with a snuggly side Octavia is a true Colorado kinda girl. Give her blue skies, fresh mountain air, a trail to explore, or a backyard to zoom in, and she is in her element. She’s seeking a like-minded family who believes dogs aren’t just pets — they’re partners. Hiking buddy? Yes. Camping companion? Absolutely. Passenger-seat co-pilot with the window cracked? Her favorite. YOU CAN SEE MORE PICS & VIDEOS ON OUR WEBSITE: https://www.circle2rescue.com/available-pets/  Petfinder limits the number of pics & videos. But let’s be clear — this outdoorsy girl is not only about activities. If your perfect Sunday includes a blanket, a couch, and a questionable number of binge-watch episodes, Octavia is fully on board. She comes equipped with premium puppy snuggles, warm cuddles, and that soft little sigh they do when they’ve decided you are their person. It’s elite-level comfort. Octavia’s story could have been very different. She came to us after a kind, quick-thinking citizen witnessed her owner giving away a litter of puppies in a parking lot. One moment of compassion changed everything. Without that person stepping in, Octavia’s future was terrifyingly uncertain — and when dogs are treated as disposable, the paths they’re sent down are rarely safe or kind. And yet… look at her now. Octavia is a young Border Collie / Australian Cattle Dog mix with a bright, curious mind and the most endearing markings. She’s what we lovingly call a rez dog — likely carrying a medley of beautiful breeds in her DNA. These mixed-breed gems are often the best of all worlds: resilient, adaptable, healthy, and deeply loyal. That unique blend? It’s her superpower. Octavia isn’t looking for perfection. She’s looking for belonging. A family who will include her in their adventures, their routines, their everyday moments. Someone who understands that the best lives are shared.  If you would like to adopt please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $350 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   ##2654693##

Kenobi is the most person friendly dog ever. If he is with people he is happy. He does amazing with kids and is very gentle with babies/toddlers. I adopted him from a house that accidentally had their two dogs breed and had 9 puppies they needed to get rid of. Kenobi is very energetic and friendly, will run and play fetch for hours, and he is incredibly smart when it comes to adjusting to new rules.

This handsome pup is Chowder  Chowder's life began in the back of an abandoned, wrecked SUV on the Navajo Nation.

Story
Rescue isn’t always soft ears and cute fluffy puppies. Sometimes rescue is a dog who has survived something she never should have had to.Meet Pepper. Pepper was very pregnant when she was found. A rancher roped her with a lariat, and when she panicked — because of course she did — the rope only tightened around her neck. The more she fought for air and safety, the worse it became. You can picture the fear. The confusion. The sheer desperation of a mother about to give birth, dragged and restrained. That memory didn’t just disappear when she was rescued. Pepper still has an aversion to leashes and hands reaching toward her collar. We’ve had her about a month, and only now is she beginning to be comfortable with a leash being clipped on. She is not yet walking on leash yet. Not because she’s stubborn. Because trauma leaves marks you can’t see. Pepper needs more than an adopter. She needs an angel. Despite everything, Pepper is gentle. She is tender. She is trying. She watches quietly from her cozy hideaway, taking it all in. She doesn’t rush. She doesn’t demand. But when she decides you are safe? It’s sacred. She comes when called.She tiptoes over for affection.She curls into you on the couch like she’s been waiting her whole life to exhale. Her love is not loud. It’s earned. And when you earn it, it feels like the greatest gift in the world. Crates are too much for her right now. Confinement reminds her of fear. She deserves space, softness, choice. With other dogs? She’s different. Light. Silly. Spunky. She currently lives with a male Hound mix and adores him — they nap together, play together, move through the house side by side. She previously lived peacefully with four adult dogs of all sizes. Other dogs bring out the version of Pepper that we know and love. She's relaxed, joyful, playful. With new people, she is still shy. Careful .Pepper is intelligent. She wants to learn. You can see her thinking through her fear. With patience, gentle encouragement, and especially a confident canine companion to show her the ropes, she will continue to blossom. Slowly. Beautifully. Pepper is looking for: A patient, deeply kind adopter A home with another friendly, confident dog Someone who understands that healing isn’t linear A family who sees the beauty in sensitive souls This is not a “plug and play” dog. Pepper will not march into your life on a leash with instant confidence. But if you have ever wanted to be someone’s safe place — the one they choose, the one they trust, the one who rewrites their story — Pepper is waiting. She survived.She protected her babies.She is still here. Now she just needs someone who will never tighten the rope again. About Pepper:• Approximately 2 years old• 37 pounds — the perfect in-between size• House mannered and respectful in the home• Dog-friendly and happiest with a canine companion Pepper needs someone to believe in her.   YOU CAN SEE MORE PICS & VIDEOS ON OUR WEBSITE: https://www.circle2rescue.com/available-pets/  Petfinder limits the number of pics & videos.
