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: Single male transferred from Tulia Animal Control Advocates in Texas. Surrendered to the shelter with two siblings, one was sadly killed by coyotes overnight in Texas foster and one was held back for further medical care and will come to CPR at a later date if not adopted. From the foster: Petey is a literal ball of sunshine! He’s always so happy and playful and absolutely cannot get enough scratches! He will do really well in a home where he can get lots of love, attention and togetherness time! He’s still working on crate training due some nerves around being separated from his caregiver, but has not had any accidents in his crate! He is super eager to cuddle up and give kisses and would love to sleep in bed if given the chance. Petey loves being outside and playing with other dogs, and enjoys going on walks. He’s almost potty trained and sticks to his toys and bones really well! He’s great with redirection, and is ready to give a lot of love! www.coloradopuppy.org/how-to-adopt

What we know: Transferred from Espanola Humane in Santa Fe, New Mexico - Mama Pepita and her 8 puppies (5F, 3M). Shelter separated them at 6 weeks old and Pepita came to CPR first to avoid needing to be boarded. Puppies came 2 weeks later. Jojo was adopted in January and in September his adopters requested to return him. CPR replied yes, we are looking for a foster. The next day, we received notification that he was at the shelter. Adopters reported after-the-fact that their need to surrender was so urgent because they lost their housing and could not live in their car with Jojo.

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 Skiatook Paws and Claws in Oklahoma at four months old, fixed, UTD on vaccines. *Casey had a series of cluster seizures in foster that resulted in her initially being pulled for medical evaluation. After visits to the ER and a neurologist, she has been diagnosed with an ongoing seizure disorder that requires strict medication administration every 12 hours. It is possible with medication that she will still have breakthrough seizures and potential adopters need to be prepared for more medical needs and financial commitments than the average puppy.* *Casey has been experiencing increased agitation that triggers seizures. Our vet has decided that Casey will need a home without other dogs or children to reduce this agitation and, in turn, reduce seizure frequency. She can absolutely encounter them in her day-to-day, she just cannot live with them.* From the foster: Hi! I’m Casey, and I’m a sweet, easygoing girl who believes life is better when you’re with your people! I love following my humans around, curling up at their feet, or snuggling beside them on the couch. Basically, wherever you are, that’s where I want to be! I’m also a social butterfly! I love meeting people of all ages, from toddlers to seniors, and I enjoy meeting other dogs, too. I have a playful side and love romping with my foster dog sibling, although sometimes I get a little carried away and need a reminder to take a break. I’m a smart cookie and already know sit, down, sit pretty, shake, and come I’m working on place and stay, and I even know not to dash through the gate when I’m told to stay in the yard. I’m still working on my house training and puppy nibbling, but I’m making great progress with both! Walks? Absolutely! I’m a dream on leash and love exploring the world with my foster family. When we’re home, you can usually find me having a blast playing fetch with my squeaky ball. A good game of fetch followed by some couch cuddles sounds like the perfect day to me! I do have one important medical need my forever family will need to understand. I have a history of seizures, which are currently well controlled with medication twice a day. I will need this medication for the rest of my life. My family will need to be committed to my ongoing care, and in return, I promise to fill their lives with plenty of love, laughs, walks, squeaky-ball games, and cuddles. My dream home would be a calm household—preferably with older children, if any, because I’m still working on my puppy nibbling. A mature, calm doggy sibling would be wonderful, but I’d be happiest being your one-and-only. If you’re looking for a loving little shadow with a playful heart, a passion for walks and squeaky-ball fetch, and LOTS of love to give, I just might be your girl! I’m Casey. Come meet me—I think we could be pretty great together! www.coloradopuppy.org/how-to-adopt

Story
  Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure Fenway 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) .   Fenway | 8-year-old mixed breed | The Goofy Gentleman Fenway is an 8-year-old, 40-pound mix with the perfect balance of gentlemanly manners and goofy charm. He’s mellow, low-to-medium energy, and loves lounging, short walks, and couch snuggles—ideal for quiet mornings, Netflix marathons, and road trips. Fenway is almost fully house trained, crate trained (though he prefers free roam), and generally good on leash. Fenway does require very slow, thoughtful introductions to both people and other dogs. While he can politely coexist with other dogs in public, he prefers to keep his castle to himself and would do best as the only dog in his home. Recently, Fenway has started showing behaviors that suggest he may feel more comfortable with men than women, though with patience, consistency, and calm energy, he can continue building trust. He appreciates gentle approaches, predictable routines, and being allowed to move at his own pace. Kids and cats haven’t been tested yet, but he would likely thrive in a quiet, low-traffic home without a lot of hustle and bustle. He’s affectionate, food motivated (salmon is a favorite!), and full of endearing quirks: soft “songs” when content, pawing for attention, belly rub flops, and his signature “seal pose.” Fenway is adjusting beautifully after a previous ear infection and is learning to trust gentle, predictable handling. Fenway’s ideal home is patient, calm, and steady—somewhere he can feel safe, loved, and appreciated for the loyal, snuggly companion he is.   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 $375. 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 72 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!

Story
Squish is a wonderful sweet boy who we took in as a foster the day after Halloween. He has massive anxiety about being kenneled, he is house broken, and knows his basic commands. He sits when he has your attention, gives hugs and paw taps for attention. He loves squeaky toys, and REALLY loves fuzzy toys, and fetch. He startles easily and runs away sometimes but has shown zero aggression towards people or kids, and does well with other dogs in social settings like hardware store, lake and dog parks. We have introduced him to children as young as 4, as old as 13 as well as other dogs in multiple settings. He really needs a home without another dog at this time so he can settle in and feel safe. We thought to keep him after all this time but one of our other dogs has gotten too aggressive with him. We are willing to travel to get him to the best home because he deserves all the love and cuddles. <3

This dog is a courtesy listing and not one of our dogs. Please contact the email listed in this post. For more information about Roscoe, contact  Autriana Crowley at  Autriana@outlook.com  or  720-252-0327    Hi! My name's Roscoe and I am estimated to be around 2 years old. I have been though somewhat of a hard time for my first 2 years of life, but I don't let that get me down! I am hoping a loving and patient person can take me in and give me all the love and cuddles I want to give to them! I am gentle and friendly/safe with puppies, dogs, and babies. I am a love bug who just wants to cuddle and stay besides my favorite people. I would love to be in a home where positive reinforcement is the rule, and no physical corrections or yelling is frequently used as my past has made me a little sensitive to those things. I am fully vaxed neutered and chipped. Shoot my foster a message if you're interested in meeting me!   * Roscoe has a past of heavy neglect so households where he will be left alone for long periods of time are not optimal. Roscoe is also very ractive to other dogs when on walks. Roscoe would either need very heavy training to handle this reactivity, or he would most likely do best where he has free access to a yard and can alert when he sees people nearby.  March 7, 2026, 10:10 am

Story
This dog is a courtesy listing and not one of our dogs. Please contact the email listed in this post. If you are interested in this dog, please contact Cate at 970-471-0963   Snacks (short for Saranac) is a 6–7 year old, 100 lb Pitbull mix with a heart as big as he is. Rescued from a shelter in Kansas when he was about a year old, he’s grown into the most loyal, goofy, and gentle companion. His favorite things in the world are cuddles on the couch, spending time with his humans, and enjoying quiet outdoor adventures. Snacks is neutered, fully vaccinated, house-trained, and knows his basic commands. He’s healthy (despite having lost some teeth in a run-in with a rock on a hike!) and has so much love left to give.   Unfortunately, he has gotten out of his yard a few times and had several altercations with neighbor dogs. These incidents have made it clear that he needs an environment where he won’t be stressed by frequent dog encounters. His current family is heartbroken, but know that finding him the right home is the best choice for Snacks and for everyone’s safety.   Why You’ll Love Him: ·        Loves all humans — strangers included ·        Amazing with kids (currently lives with a 1 & 4 year old) ·        Big cuddlebug and total couch potato ·        Enjoys the outdoors, quiet walks, and being by your side   What He Needs: ·        Experienced owner who can manage his leash reactivity (he struggles walking past other dogs and because of this walks are easier in calm or rural areas) ·        Secure fenced yard where he can safely enjoy outside time ·        A home where he won’t be constantly triggered by dogs passing by ·        Gets along with dog-friendly pups only after an experienced owner can give a proper intro. He lived with a dog for several years. ·        No cats Snacks is located in Breckenridge, CO, but his current family is willing to travel to help Snacks find his perfect home.March 7, 2026, 10:10 am

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: Single female, estimated to be 6 years old, transferred from Aurora Animal Shelter. She was reportedly abandoned at a veterinary clinic by her owner in April but was ultimately picked back up from the shelter. In June, she was found as a stray and brought to Aurora Animal Shelter where attempts to reach the owner throughout the stray hold were unsuccessful. *Medical note: Clover has been experiencing some incontinence while in our care, primarily when she relaxes after consuming water or something super exciting happens after consuming water.* From the foster: If you're looking for the perfect family dog, look no further. Clover is one of the sweetest dogs you'll ever meet. Her favorite thing in the world is simply being with her people. Whether you're heading out for a walk, taking a drive, or relaxing at home, she's happiest when she's by your side. She absolutely adores children and has a special way of checking in on them throughout the day, making sure everyone is where they're supposed to be. Despite living around kids and their toys, she's incredibly respectful and never bothers their things. She loves car rides, enjoys going for walks, and is always up for an adventure. But she's just as content curling up nearby and spending quiet time with her family. Clover has a gentle, loving personality that makes her easy to adore. She's the kind of dog who wants to be included in your life, not because she needs constant attention, but because she genuinely loves being part of the family. If you're looking for a loyal companion, a wonderful family dog, and a best friend who will always want to be close, Clover may be the perfect match. ❤️ "Some dogs want a home.Clover wants a family." 🐕💕 www.coloradopuppy.org/how-to-adopt

Story
Poe is a 6 year old husky mix. He was born February 2020. I’ve had him since he was a puppy. He is genuinely a great a dog. He has helped me through some very difficult times. He’s very in tune with emotions and offers great support. We have started a family and learned he isn’t comfortable with young children. He would thrive in a household where he is the only pet and no children are present. He doesn’t get along with other animals but is leash trained and loves going for walks. We are devastated to have to rehome him and know it’s best to let him be in an environment he’s most comfortable in.
