My story

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

End Zone was the shyest of the group on intake, but she has made so much progress.  I can approach her and she no longer hisses and runs.  Instead, she will stay and let me pet her.   She has started to lean into my touch and purr.   Endzone is more cautious than her foster mates.   She likes to let one of her friends go first in a new situation unless it involves bird watching.  She loves to watch birds and is happiest looking out a window.   She also loves to play around with her foster mates but will take a little time to join in, just watching and taking it in at first.  You can see in her eyes that she is ready to be open to trust and affection, she just needs a little more time and encouragement.   Endzone enjoys running around in a tunnel and chasing her foster mates around.   She has really connected with our 5 year old male cats; she follows them around and seemed to gain confidence learning from them.    End Zone has recently moved to our  EAPL Cat Adoption Center at Chow Down Pet Supplies in Bergan Park.  Be sure to give all the cats some love when visiting.  Complete a cat application on the rescue's website - www.eapl.com - once approved, you can take home the cat meant for you.  (Don't let her hiss frighten you off - she's just setting her boundaries,)

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

THE FIRST STEP to adopting an EAPL animal is to fill out a DOG ADOPTION APPLICATION.

EAPL is a foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter facility where applicants can come look at multiple animals at one time. All of our animals are in foster homes that range from Denver, to Evergreen, to Northeast Colorado - where they are loved and cared for until they are placed in a forever home.

The adoption process begins when you complete an online Adoption Application, naming either one or a few of our Available Animals or providing a description of the type of animal you hope to adopt. Completing an application does not restrict you to a specific animal, nor does it obligate you to adopt.

Once we have received your application and determined that you are a good match for the requested animal, we will contact you. The foster parent will then contact you to arrange a time for you to meet the animal, at which time you can decide if you would like to complete the adoption. You may be asked to visit the animal more than once before taking it home. After your initial meeting with the animal, one of our volunteers will conduct a home visit. This may occur before you take the animal home or when the animal is delivered to you.

Once the adoption is approved, you will need to complete our Preliminary Adoption Agreement and pay the adoption fee. We will keep in contact over the next few days to make sure everyone is happy. If so, we will mail out an official Adoption Contract for you to sign and mail back. At that point, your adoption fee will be deposited.

IF AT ANY TIME AFTER ADOPTION, YOU DECIDE YOU CAN NOT KEEP THE PET FOR ANY REASON, THE ANIMAL MUST BE RETURNED TO EAPL.

Our animals are our clients.
Our job is to find each of out animals the right home. Rejected applications are not necessarily a reflection on the applicant’s home, but rather based on the determination that the home is not the right match. Before adopting, keep in mind that many of our animals have never lived inside a home. Some dogs may never have been walked on a leash, socialized, house trained or spent time with other animals. All, even those who previously have been in loving homes, will need patience and understanding as they learn to adapt to a new life and family. Rescued animals need adopters who will not give up on them if they have accidents in the house, pull on the leash, dig in the yard or act nervous or frightened.

Because of the work done in our foster homes and the care we take in matching animals with the right home, most of our animals will fit in their new homes immediately. But some will not. Many will need some form of training.

An adoption will be successful only if the adopter is committed to seeing the animal through the adjustment period. The rewards are the unconditional love and loyalty of a wonderful companion and the satisfaction of knowing you have given a rescued animal a better life. EAPL wants to support you with resources, education, and encouragement for the lifetime of your pet. Please contact us at any time following adoption for assistance.

Adult dogs $125 (1yr and older) - includes Distemper/Parvo vaccine and Spay/Neuter. Pit Bulls receive a microchip.

Puppies $175 (under 1yr) - includes age appropriate Distemper/Parvo vaccines and Spay/Neuter at our assigned vet. Pit Bull puppies will receive a microchip. Spay/Neuter deposit of $50 is required if not altered at time of adoption due to age.

Adult cats $75 - includes vaccines (does not include Rabies) and Spay/Neuter.

Kittens $75 - includes first vaccines (does not include Rabies). Spay/Neuter deposit required if not altered.

Spay/Neuter Deposit $50 - Per Department of Agriculture's requirement, EAPL will collect a $50 deposit for any animal unaltered at time of adoption due to age. The $50 deposit will be refunded once adopter has shown sufficient proof of alter.

**Microchip info - Microchips will be registered to both EAPL and adopter. EAPL will register the microchip. If animal is lost/found, both parties will be notified. If any changes need to be made to the microchip, adopter must contact EAPLwestminster@yahoo.com

Then you will be on your way to your new life with your new family member!

More about this rescue

EAPL - Westminster Location is an animal rescue organization based in Westminster, Colorado. Our mission is to rescue, care for, and adopt out abandoned or stray animals in need of loving homes.


We are dedicated to promoting the spaying or neutering of all pets while providing the best medical and nutritional care available. All animals are spayed or neutered and vaccinated before they are adopted.



EAPL saves animals from several shelters in the region, most who are in danger of being euthanized, and finds temporary living situations for them until they are adopted. All EAPL animals are living in boarding facilities or foster homes. If you are interested in an EAPL animal, please send an email to eaplevergreen@eapl or submit an application.
