My name is Misty!

Making the most of her second chance at life is 2-year-old Misty! Saved by a Good Samaritan who found her underneath a house, nursing her puppies, this brave 37-pound black beauty and her puppies are now thriving. Sweeter than sweet, Misty, with her cute little underbite, adores her foster mom, pawing her for attention because she loves to be loved, petted and snuggled and having her belly rubbed. Still puppylike herself, she’s very friendly, LOVES other dogs her size and larger, playing with toys and going for two walks a day, walking well on leash without pulling. She also loves romping around the backyard, sunbathing and rolling in the grass. Once in the car, she sits quietly and enjoys the ride, and once in the tub, she tolerates being bathed. Fond of bananas and Greenies for treats, Misty especially enjoys chewing on a Nylabone, is both a good listener and a fast learner, is motivated by food and love, knows “come” and “sit,” and answers to her name. Learning not to jump up on people, crate trained and almost fully house-trained, Misty, who’s being treated for a mild case of heartworm, would be paw-fect for a particularly loving home that will complete her training, including her commands, and keep her content, mentally and physically, fur-ever.   See more photos of Misty here.

Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure each pet 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 48 hours (please check your spam folder for our emails).

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 48 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!
