Story
Adoption Fee: $475 When available, all animals are fixed in accordance with Colorado law, up to date on vaccines (may need boosters), and microchipped! What we know: Transferred from Operation Kindness, originated from Dallas Animal Services, Dallas, TX. Pup came into shelter believed to be 10 years old, Upon intake pup had a dental done and found that 28 teeth were missing and 3 had to be extracted. Pup has some vision problems and was given eye drops that are to be continued for the remainder of his life. Pup came to CPR neutered and with rabies vaccine. From the foster: Mr. Miso is supposed to be a senior dog but nobody told him! He has a zest for life now that he is living his best life. He is 10yrs young and a total lovebug. He’s great with our dogs. He is playful with one of them and even likes playing with a stuffed toy. His most favorite thing to do other than eating….is going for walks! He loves being able to run around the field at the park! He has a healthy appetite and will let you know if you are taking too long making his meal :) He will require eye medication for the rest if his life as he does have some visual impairment. He is a really good boy when applying the medication. He can comfortably go up stairs but it took him a little longer to feel comfortable to go down the stairs. With some help and encouragement he will be able to do it again in his new home. He loves to snuggle with his people and receiving belly rubs. Mr. Miso would make a wonderful addition to anyone who is looking for a sweet senior dog with lots of love to give still :) www.coloradopuppy.org/how-to-adopt

Story
Halo is a 4 year old, 20lb Shih Tzu.  Halo was surrendered from his owners becayse she had a lot of dogs and wanted to downsize.  Halo is the cutest little boy who is missing half his jaw, so his little tongue hangs out of his mouth all the time - it might be the cutest thing ever! Halo is the cutest little man with a big personality.  Halo loves to snuggle and hang out with his foster Momma.  He gets along with other dogs and is great on a leash.  He is pretty well trained and listens well.  Halo is also a pretty stubborn little man.   For some people this big personality is hilarous and they adore everything about him, everybody who meets him laughs at him and falls in love instantly.  He loves to cuddle and hang out and go for walks/wander around the back yard.  He is a non shedding dog so he will need someone who can get him regular grooming appointments.  If you are looking for an adorable little dog, with a tongue hanging out all the time, and a big personality Halo is your man! If you are interested in adopting little Halo, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2234207##

Story
Meet Kiwi — a gentle, loving soul who thrives on companionship. He’s happiest when he’s close to his person, whether it’s sitting quietly at your feet or snuggled in your lap for hours. Kiwi’s heart is full of affection, and he’s always eager to make you smile. As a young puppy, Kiwi bravely battled a severe case of parvo. He doesn’t always recognize or communicate when he needs to go outside, and sometimes he can’t hold it in time. He’s making progress as he grows, and with patience, consistency, and loving guidance, we’re convinced he’ll continue to improve even more. Kiwi’s sweetness, loyalty, and loving nature make every bit of extra care more than worthwhile. He will need a securely fenced yard where he can safely play and stretch his legs. His adoption fee of $375 includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccinations. We’re located in the Colorado Springs area and require a home visit as part of the adoption process. If you think you might be the right match for Kiwi, please apply at www.whimperstowags.org under the “Forms” section. Thank you for considering giving this special boy the home he truly deserves!May 7, 2025, 12:11 am
