Story
*We will not be hosting an adoption event on Saturday, August 29. We are offering private adoption appointments August 23-30 to pre-approved applicants. Contact us to learn more!*
Meet Chief! Chief is a playful, adventurous pup with the perfect balance of energy and affection. He loves greeting his people with enthusiasm, chasing a ball during a game of fetch, and then settling in for snuggles once he's burned off some energy.
Chief is eager to please, highly food motivated, and a quick learner, making him a great candidate for continued training. He's already making excellent progress with his house training and is working on his leash manners and kennel training. Like many young dogs, he's still learning that hands aren't toys and is practicing polite manners such as "no mouth" and "down."
Chief has done wonderfully with children and enjoys the company of other playful dogs. His foster family's 4-year-old is one of his favorite playmates! He's generally a quiet pup, though he may bark when separated from his people as he continues building confidence with alone time. At night, he settles in nicely and sleeps well in either his dog bed or alongside his people. If you're looking for a smart, affectionate companion who's ready for adventure by day and cuddles by night, Chief may be the perfect addition to your family.
Chief is a 3-month-old mixed breed who was rescued from a high-intake shelter. This dog's adoption fee is $500 and includes up-to-date vaccinations, microchip, and neuter. Chief is also tested with other dogs, cats, and children. He is working on potty and kennel training in foster care. We would love for you to meet this dog and see if he might be a good fit for your home.
The first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org. Pending approval, your application is valid for 1 year, and you will be eligible to request a hold on an individual animal for the Saturday adoption event. The hold does not require that you take the animal home, but ensures you get to meet and make an adoption decision prior to other applicants. Also pending approval, you will be able to acquire foster home contact information, so you inquire on personalities of specific animals.
We do offer midweek private adoption appointments for approved applicants pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Because we are 100% foster-based, private adoption appointments are only offered for individual animals. (If interested in viewing multiple animals at one time, we encourage you to attend our adoption events!)
Please note, adoption applications are processed within 1–2 business days. Adoption applications cannot be processed onsite at adoption events.
Our adoption events take place every Saturday from 10am-Noon at Pet Supplies Plus (Front Range Village, 2912 Council Tree Ave #100, Fort Collins, 80525).
For additional questions regarding meeting this dog please contact us via text/email at 970.699.6772 or contact@bounceanimalrescue.org. We apologize for any inconvenience, but due to a high volume of inquiries, calls and voicemails regarding adoption will not be returned.
