My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Toby is a gentle, shy guy with a heart full of love, just waiting for the right family to accept him. He had a tough start, spending much of his early life in a shelter, alone in a kennel. Because of that, he's a little reserved and enjoys his personal space. But he doesn't let that stop him, he absolutely loves being around our family. He might not ask for pets, but he’ll always want to be close by, checking things out being part of the family. With a wagging tail and a smile on his face too!

Although he gets nervous when approached directly, Toby has never shown any aggression. He has made a lot of progress in the time we've had him but he does still hide and get scared. He simply prefers a soft, patient touch and the treats better be good! He’s still learning that love is unconditional around here.

Toby gets along great with other dogs and cats and is especially fond of our new puppy. His playful side really shines when he's around his furry companions, and he’s been great with all the dogs and cats in our household. We think Toby would thrive in a home with other pets who can help him feel more confident and secure.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who's loving, gentle and happy, Toby might just be the perfect match for you. With a little patience, he’s sure to become a beloved part of your family.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We are doggie and kitty match-makers. We do everything in our power to assure that our dogs or cats will thrive in your environment.

Please start by submitting an application to adopt on our website. We do our best to respond to all applications but do to the number of applications received, this may always not be possible.

If you, your family and your lifestyle look like a good fit for the personality and needs of the animal, there's a phone call to chat and answer any additional questions. From there we will arrange a no-obligation meet and greet, where the animal could then go home with you, provided it is a good fit for all involved! (All this can happen within a week's time!)

A contract is signed at time of adoption. If for ANY reason you are unable to keep your companion, we quite passionately INSIST the animal be returned to us and NOT dropped in a shelter. We would happily take any of our adoptions back if it proves NOT a good fit for your family. :-)

Adoption fees include spay/neuter, microchip, basic vaccinations, (including rabies if old enough), deworming, rescue and transport costs, other medical services as needed (which can include but not limited to skin scrape, fecal exam, x-ray, amputation and hospitalization). Felines additionally receive an felv/fiv test and checked for ringworm with the Woods lamp prior to transport.

Adoption fees may vary due to special health circumstances, but typically start with...adult dogs (1 year and older): $425; puppies: $475; adult cats (1 year and older): $175; kittens: $250.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster based rescue ~ we DO NOT have a physical shelter at the moment. All of our dogs and cats reside in foster homes all throughout the Front Range and the Western Slope of Colorado. We have adoption events regularly at Petsmart stores in Denver, CO. If we do not have an event scheduled, we can arrange a time for you to meet one of our animals available for adoption.

More about this rescue

We relocate dogs and cats from high-intake shelters, animal control facilities, and reservations in the Four Corners area to animal rescue partners and forever homes in Colorado. We provide transportation to foster homes and other partner organizations, offer medical care and low/no cost spay and neuter services, manage a network of foster homes for temporary shelter, and run adoption events so that these animals can find forever homes.

Since March of 2012, we have transported thousands of at-risk dogs and cats to safety, solely on generous donations from caring individuals like you who see how dire the need is in and around the Navajo reservation.
