Collie puppies and dogs in Brighton, Colorado

  Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure Sassy #7 finds the best possible home, we ask you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application in the order submitted and will contact you within 72 hours  (please check your spam folder for our emails) .   Sassy #7 | 15-year-old Pomeranian/Corgi mix | A whole lot of love in a little, fluffy package Meet Sassy, a 17-pound bundle of sweetness with a big personality and an even bigger heart! Her shelter paperwork lists her as a Collie, but one look at this fluffy little lady and you’ll likely agree she’s much more of a Pomgi (Pomeranian/Corgi mix)! At 15 years young, Sassy has perfected the art of enjoying the good life: snuggling with her people, collecting affection, enjoying her favorite treats, and taking in the neighborhood from her stroller. She may be a little chunky, but she’s absolutely adorable and has plenty of love left to give! Sassy is a low-energy girl who would much rather relax beside her favorite person than run marathons. She enjoys short strolls, car rides, itty-bitty stuffed toys, and all the treats she’s allowed to have. While she’s definitely not looking to become a fitness influencer, she does need to get some steps in each day to help her shed a few pounds and stay healthy. Her signature move is resting her whole body on you and giving you a thousand kisses. She’s also a bit of a mama’s girl and will do her best to keep you in sight, even if navigating the stairs takes a little extra effort. Sassy is also the PERFECT brewery dog, if that’s your thing! This girl will charm the pants off everyone she meets! With her adorable face and friendly personality, she’ll have everyone wrapped around her little paw in no time. She’s happy to hang out with her person and make new friends along the way. Just be prepared for her to steal the show! Sassy gets along well with dogs of all sizes and seems especially fond of puppies, although she isn’t afraid to speak her mind when a younger pup gets too enthusiastic or another dog invades her personal space. She’s also perfectly fine with cats and generally ignores them. She hasn’t met children in her foster home, but her sweet, easygoing nature suggests she could do well with kids of any age who know how to treat an older dog gently and respectfully. Sassy has some significant medical needs, including severe hip dysplasia, advanced arthritis, mobility challenges, and chronic ear infections. She’s receiving medication to help manage her pain and keep her comfortable, and she has shown improvement with treatment. She also has some hearing loss, so she likely won't respond when you call her name. She appears to be mostly housetrained, though she occasionally uses a potty pad indoors. She does well when left home with other dogs for several hours and doesn't need a crate; a comfortable, safe space to relax is much more her style. Sassy needs a mellow, loving home where she can enjoy her golden years in comfort. With her mobility limitations, a home without lots of stairs would be ideal, but she still wants to be included in her people's daily activities. A cozy bed, gentle strolls, and someone committed to managing her medical needs will go a long way toward keeping her happy. Her foster family has even installed a bed rail to prevent her from accidentally falling off the bed at night! Sassy may be a little bit of a hot mess, but she's a happy one! She has so much love to give and deserves to spend her remaining years surrounded by people who adore her. If you're looking for a sweet senior companion who can enjoy a quiet afternoon at home just as much as a brewery patio full of new admirers, Sassy might be your perfect little sidekick.   Click here to see more photos and videos of Sassy #7!   If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth.

Despy is an adorable youngster with perfectly pointy ears! He is a bit overwhelmed by life in the shelter and he is looking for a gentle and patient adopter that can help him gain confidence around new places and new people. Despy might also appreciate living with an older, more confident canine that can help show him the ropes! At this time, HSBV will only rehome him to a family either without children or with children over the age of 10.

Sadie is a 4MO adorable Mutt.  Sadie and her 3 siblings were found abandoned on the side of the road in Texas.  We are guessing she will be about 35-45lbs when full grown. We don't know how many of them there were originally, but unfortunately it's safe to assume there were others that didn't make it.  Once they were rescued they were brought to a local vet to get the proper care and support they needed since they were emaciated and dehydrated.  Once sadie and her siblings were healthy and stable, they made their way to our rescue here in CO where we are hoping they find families of their very own.  Here is what Sadie's foster Momma has to say about her: "This little pup is a bit shy at first but with treats and a few good belly rubs she’ll become your best friend! Once she’s comfortable with you, she won’t leave your side! Sadie’s a quick learner and is very treat motivated. She’s already learned sit and is doing really well with potty training. She sleeps through the night in her crate. We highly recommend having a crate for her at her new home. While she’d love to sleep with you, she has a very positive tie to her crate and we can tell it’s a place of security for her. Sadie is incredibly sweet and does well with other dogs. We’re working on walking a leash but she's doing great so far! She is loving and snuggly and it's been so fun to watch her learn how great humans and life can be when she isn't trying to survive on the side of the road." If you are interested in adopting Sadie, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2850528##

Poppy is a gentle soul with a very shy and timid temperament, but once she feels safe, her playful side starts to shine. Poppy will thrive in a home with a fenced yard and plenty of room to play. Having her own secure space helps her build confidence and gives her the freedom to explore without feeling overwhelmed. She’s a tender, sensitive girl who just needs the right environment to blossom — and she’ll reward her family with soft affection, sweet moments, and a loyal heart.
