My story

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

You can meet Mr. Rizzle this weekend (Saturday, 9/21 from 10a to 5p & Sunday, 9/22 from 10a to 4p) at the Larkspur Autumn Arts and Crafts Fest located at the Larkspur Community Park, 8820 Spruce Mountain Rd, Larkspur, CO 80118.

From Mr. Rizzle's Foster Mom:

"Rizzo, as I call him, is an absolute character. From the minute he gets up in the morning to the time he goes to sleep in his kennel at night he is a constant source of entertainment. He loves people, his foster doggie siblings, toys, running around, and playing with sticks. At 5 months and 25 lbs he may not be the biggest pup out there but makes up for it in personality. I picture him with an adopter who has lots of time to spend with him. He is still very much a puppy and learning boundries, which will need to be enforced. Mr. Rizzle is extremely food motivated and should be easy to train. He does well in a kennel and would make a great best friend for someone living in an apartment. I can see him becoming an avid hiking buddy or champion ball fetcher. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on shots and so ready for a family of his very own. Mr. Rizzle has been an absolute pleasure to foster and will make a wonderful addition to his furever family".

Mr. Rizzle is being fostered in Colorado Springs. Please submit a no obligation adoption application to find out more about this special boy.

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.
