My story

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

Juniper is a terrific girl who knows all her manners and likes to show off what she knows! She’s potty trained and walks great on and off leash. She plays fetch and is a terrific hiking partner!
Juniper’s issues stem from her breed tendencies; she can be reactive while on leash and she tries to herd things. Her reactivity mainly presents as impulse-control: barking which she can be verbally interrupted during. She’ll bark at a dog on leash or from inside a car. She also struggles in the kennel environment. The lack of exercise and the constant dog presence has caused her to redirect. She lived at pranaDOGS for 5mo and lived with 4 other dogs in a group setting without issue. She doesn’t enjoy playing with other dogs but she cohabitated with them without issue.
She should not live with a cat. Juniper isn’t thriving in the kennel environment and needs to be placed through a foster-home or another avenue. Juniper would do best in a home in a rural setting, or in an area without a lot going on. She would do best in a home where walking on leash isn’t her only means of exercise. And where she can be a dog and work some of her heeler tendencies.

Currently in Durango, CO.

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): $450; puppies: $500; adult cats (1 year and older): $200; kittens: $275.

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.
