Story
Meet Shaggy, a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd who’s basically the canine version of—well—Shaggy from Scooby-Doo, man! Like, this fluffy dude starts off a little nervous, especially when things get, you know… spoooooky. New people? Tiny kids zooming around? Ruh-roh—that’s a bit much for him. He’d totally prefer a chill home without little kids, where the vibes are mellow and nobody pops out like a ghost in a haunted mansion. But here’s the good news, man: food is the key to his heart. Got snacks? Suddenly you’re not a stranger—you’re his new best buddy. Offer him a treat and he’ll be like, “Zoinks! I trust you!” Once he warms up, Shaggy is a loyal, goofy companion who sticks close, loves a good mystery (aka sniffing everything), and is always down to share a snack or a snuggly moment on the couch. If you’re looking for a sweet, slightly skittish sidekick with big heart and even bigger Scooby-Doo energy, Shaggy’s your guy, man!

Story
I have tried so hard not to have to rehome her. My husband is extremely allergic to her, he’s tried the allergy shots, I have an automatic vacuum and I get her deshedded. This is the last thing I want to do but I can’t hardly pet her and she has to stay downstairs with my mom. She deserves more and I want to find her a lovely home so all parties are happy. She is super sweet dog, loves walks, and is well behaved. Please consider adopting her. She’ll be an addition to your family and she will love you!

This playful, water-loving goofball is as sweet as she is spirited — the perfect blend of adventure buddy, best friend, and loyal companion. Skipper was sadly surrendered when her previous owner no longer had time for a dog, but she’s ready to set sail toward a brighter future with a family who will make time to love, spoil, and cherish her for once and for all. This housetrained, well-mannered girl is good with kids and other dogs, making her a perfect fit for an active family. She’s a total social butterfly who loves making new dog friends and would thrive in a home with other pups to play with. Skipper’s happiest when she’s near the water — she loves splashing in pools, chasing the water hose, and would absolutely adore having her very own kiddie pool or lake to explore. 💦 She’s treat motivated, eager to please, and knows some basic obedience, making her a smart, fun companion who’s always ready for the next adventure. Whether she’s exploring rivers, hiking trails, or just rolling around with her friends in the backyard, Skipper’s joy for life is contagious. She’s ready to trade her lonely days for a life full of love, laughter, and maybe a few muddy paw prints along the way. With her happy heart and playful spirit, Skipper is ready to chart a new course — straight into her forever home. ⚓🐾💛 Interested in this furry companion?

With a passionate team we are a foster-based animal rescue, partnering with the community to provide shelter and resources prioritizing the animals’ well-being.

We are dedicated to making a difference by providing essential resources and compassionate care to enhance the quality of life for animals. As their voice, we advocate for their well-being by raising awareness about the shelter crisis, promoting responsible pet guardianship, and ensuring the compassionate treatment of all animals. *Our Vision* We envision a world where every animal is understood with empathy, treated with kindness and respect, and where the unique bond between humans and animals is cherished — enriching all lives. *Spay & Neuter is required by law in Colorado, helping to break the cycle of unwanted litters.* Please consider supporting our mission.

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Reggie!   Reggie is a lovable 10-year-old dog weighing in at 55 pounds, and he’s looking for his forever family! He adores being around his people and loves to please, making him a delight to have at home!     Personality:   Reggie is the perfect mix of playful and relaxed. Whether you want to go for a walk or hike or just spend the day lounging around, he’s up for it! His favorite trick is playing hide and seek for treats around the house, and he’s well trained, making him an excellent companion.     Home Life:   Reggie is great with people and has a part border collie heritage, which means he’s intelligent and eager to engage! However, he can see small children as “sheep” and may herd or nip at them when they get too excited, so he’d do best in a home with older kids or no kids at all. He doesn’t interact well with other dogs, so he’s looking for a family who can give him all the love and attention he deserves! If you’re ready for a loving companion who fits into either an active or laid-back lifestyle, Reggie could be your perfect match! July 8, 2025, 4:33 pm

Story
Meet Jennings, the sweet, spirited, and endlessly playful pup who’s ready to steal your heart! This energetic boy has a story as unique as his personality: he was originally found in Texas… on a middle school property! Apparently, the school had a strict “no dogs allowed” policy—Jennings, of course, had no idea and was just trying to enroll in recess. Who could blame him? Jennings is a superstar on a leash, friendly to everyone he meets, and loves to play like there’s no tomorrow. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a romp at the dog park, or an adventurous hike, he’s all in—and when the zoomies finally wear off, he’s the ultimate snuggle bug. If you’re looking for a loyal play partner, adventure buddy, and cozy companion all wrapped into one adorable package, Jennings is the boy for you!
