Story
Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure Kaius 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 48 hours (please check your spam folder for our emails) . Kaius | 2-year-old Pug Mix | A Wiggly Little Charmer Kaius is a 2-year-old, 15-pound pug mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s sweet, playful, and easygoing, and he loves meeting new people. Friendly with strangers and unfazed by everyday noises, Kaius is a happy little companion who enjoys being involved in daily life. He does great on leash and enjoys walks, especially when he can stop and sniff along the way. Kaius has a good amount of playful energy and would benefit from multiple daily walks and dedicated playtime, but once his needs are met, he’s content to relax. He is also very comfortable in his crate, sleeping through the night and settling quickly when left alone for 4–6 hours, particularly with a chew or puzzle toy. Kaius is still mastering his potty routine and is making steady progress with a consistent schedule and lots of positive reinforcement. He’s very treat motivated and eager to learn, which makes continued training a rewarding process. Kaius also loves to chew, and he does best when provided with plenty of appropriate outlets like long-lasting chews and enrichment toys, which help keep him happily occupied. Highly food motivated and affectionate, Kaius thrives on praise and attention. He enjoys yak chews, Kongs with peanut butter, tug toys, and quality time with his people. One of his cutest traits is his wiggly “dance” when his back is scratched, and he loves resting his head in your hands for ear and face rubs. He prefers not to have his paws handled, but does well with a martingale collar. Kaius would thrive in a home with someone who enjoys walks, playtime, and ongoing training. He may do well with another dog companion and would be a wonderful fit for a patient, engaged adopter. In return, Kaius offers endless affection, sweetness, and charm. 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. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives! A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you. The adoption fee for this pet is $350. Our adoption fee covers the following: Spay/neuter Microchip DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption. Please fill out an adoption application by clicking here . Please give us 48 hours to review your application and respond to you. (Remember to check your spam folder for our emails!) We want our pets to go to a lifelong new home, so thank you for your patience during the adoption process! Please email dogs@arrcolorado.org for more information, as we can't accept calls. PLEASE NOTE: The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter. Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets. Here is some interesting info on breed identification: https://arrcolorado.org/category/puppy-dog-tips/ Our adoption process is: 1. Fill out our Adoption Application online. We'll contact you within 48 hours to answer any questions you may have about the pet. 2. If the pet looks like a great match, we'll schedule a meet and greet and ask you to fill out our online Adoption Agreement if you'd like to proceed with adopting. Once you've completed the Adoption Agreement and pay the pet's Adoption Fee, you can arrange to pick up your new furry family member! December 28, 2025, 1:32 pm
