Story
This dog is a courtesy listing and not one of our dogs. Please contact the email listed in this post.   Meet Ben, a 5-year-old Chihuahua and Pit Bull mix who has endured the unimaginable. Despite being tragically shot by a neighbor, Ben's spirit remains unbroken. This courageous canine has a heartwarming blend of loyalty, affection, and resilience that shines through, even in the face of adversity. Ben is currently recovering from his injuries and has partial paralysis. However, his sweet and loving nature remains undeterred. He is a gentle soul who enjoys the company of both humans and other dogs. Ben is up-to-date on his vaccinations and has a history of being kid-friendly. While Ben requires special care, including regular medications and assistance with expressing his bladder, his wheelchair provides him with mobility and independence. We are searching for a compassionate and understanding foster home or adoptive family who can offer Ben the love, patience, and support he needs to thrive. A donation will be offered to the adoptive family to help offset the costs of Ben's ongoing care. If you are interested in providing Ben with a loving home, please reach out to us. Let's give Ben the chance to experience the joy and companionship he deserves. highcountryvet@gmail.com 719.390.7995  December 22, 2024, 10:52 am

Story
  As this statuesque   23 -pound brown beauty grows comfortable in her foster home, her sweet nature shines through. She enjoys cuddling, giving hugs to her foster humans, and playfully asking for love with her paw or by rolling over for belly rubs. Six year old Jasmine Jane loves to burrow under blankets, typical of her Chihuahua breed, and also delights in interactions with her canine foster siblings. Together, they play with toys, fetch balls, and go for walks, where she is honing her leash skills. Highly motivated by food and treats, Jasmine Jane is eager to please and is a quick learner. She has already mastered commands like “come,” “sit,” “stay,” “down,” and “no,” and is nearly fully crate and house-trained. Jasmine Jane will thrive in a loving household, ideally with another playful dog, and patient adopters who can help enhance her socialization with people and other dogs, complete her training, and show her the joy of companionship!   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!

Story
Bella is an approx 2 y/o 10# Chiweenie who was found as a stray in a small rural TX town. No one came in to claim her and she was very frightened at the shelter. She's now in a foster home in CO and is coming out of her shell. She loves to be near her person/people, sit on your lap, and sleep under the covers in the big bed. Bella now loves to play with other dogs but can get snarky if she doesn’t get to be the boss. Bella has a difficult time sharing so we are looking to place her in a home where she is the only dog or with a laid back dog who doesn’t care about her bossiness. Bella needs a secure 6 ft fenced yard as she will be a flight risk for awhile and humans who can take her out frequently. She is potty trained and crate trained. She enjoys walks and is good on the leash but will bark at people, other dogs and unfamiliar things. She had made a lot of progress with her fear barking on walks and will need her new owner to continue with her reward based training. She'd do best with someone (she prefers women over men) home during the day and no small children. She hasn't been overly barky indoors. She was curious about cats but we're not sure how should be be living with them. If interested in meeting Bella, complete our meet and greet application at https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms as the first step. We require the application, home and reference check, and meet with everyone in the home including pets. Bella is spayed, utd on vaccs, chipped, and HW-. Her adoption fee is $375 and we are not doing any out of state adoptions.November 2, 2024, 3:49 pm

Story
Fancy is a Chihuahua and Mini American Shepard mix. She is almost 3 years old and weighs 20 pounds. She has beautiful brindle coloring and has a petite but taller body. Fancy was on the euthanasia list (pregnant) in a shelter in Texas due to space constraints. She had 4 puppies at the end of August right after we sprang her. She is very happy, kind, gentle, and playful. She loves to play with other happy playful dogs. She is very much a puppy at heart and enjoys toys. Now that dhe is done being g a mama, she gets very excited to play with her babies especially when she’s outside! Another favorite past time is chasing squirrels and bunnies. She is completely potty trained and loves going in and out the doggy door on her own. She loves human contact and enjoys curling up on the couch to snuggle, hopefully touching her person. She also loves to cuddle up on the bed at night to sleep. Fancy wants to be wherever her human is. She has a very sweet, laid-back disposition. Fancy enjoys kisses and hugs as well as trying to pull her foster mom’s socks off her feet! She should do well with dog savvy cats but she thinks they are fun to chase and bark at. She loves older kids 10+ and has not been tested around younger children. Fancy would do best with a secure fenced yard. While she appreciates daily walks and is learning to be good on a leash, she loves to run with the zoomies. Fancy is a flight risk due to her curiosity and her love of running; she currently does not have good recall. She needs a secure privacy fence as she can jump over 3 ½ feet high. Fancy wants a home with humans who will include her in their daily activities and talk to her. Fancy is spayed, utd on vaccs, chipped, and HW-. She was infested with ticks while living in Texas and tests slightly positive for Ehrlichia and anaplasmosis but has been asymptomatic.  These are non contagious tick borne diseases. Her new family should monitor her for any signs of lameness, fever, or lethargy. If she exhibits those symptoms she needs an immediate visit to the vet. This is something that will have to be monitored for the rest of her life. She may never have these symptoms, then again, she could; there isn’t any way to predict it. Her veterinarians have stated that there isn’t any reason she can’t live a full happy life regardless. If you’re interested in meeting Fancy, the first step is to complete our meet and greet application at https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms We require the application, home and reference check, and meet with everyone in the home. Fancy’s adoption fee is $375 and we do not adopt outside of Colorado.November 26, 2024, 11:25 pm

Hi, I'm Sherman, an 8 year old Chihuahua mix.  I am well behaved and know sit, come, paw and down, take treats gently, good with kids and other dogs, house-trained, and sleep through the night. I like sniffing everywhere while out for walks, and smile with my lil teefers showing while waiting to harness up for a walk. My very best friend Duke and I have been together our whole lives, and are looking for a forever home together. We’re both friendly to people and other dogs, good with kids, love our walks, and well behaved.  Don't tell Duke I said this, but he is kinda a baby and he looks up (or rather down since I am the little guy) to me.  Come meet us and I assure you, you will fall in love! Their walker adds: Today I walked Duke and Sherman. This bonded-duo are sweet as pie, well mannered, and perfectly “seasoned”! They’ve been through a bit together, and are an amazing duo. Please consider adopting this adorable pair! ********PLEASE READ BELOW PRIOR TO EMAILING IN**********If you are interested in adopting this dog or any other from our rescue, please go to https://www.hobocare.org/adopt to review our home requirements and fill out an application.

Story
Hopper is very endearing- everyone falls in love with him, human and canine! Hopper gets his name from his proclivity to hop around while on leash, which he walks great on by the way. Hopper is a playful boy and likes other dogs, but does have a preference for females because he like to be the boss. Otherwise, Hopper is quite the laid back couch potato and perfect for Netflix and Chill. He will sneak up on the couch and sit there minding his own business. He’s smart and figured out the doggy door quickly. Hopper channels his inner Husky while in the crate and will howl. Good with kids. Elf has made the journey up from San Antonio, Texas, and is being fostered in Denver, Colorado. ##2259675##

Story
Emergency fundraising needed! Little Thumbalina has a hernia on her diaphragm which is very dangerous as it’s fatal if (and when) it ruptures, so requires immediate surgical repair- it’s a ticking timebomb. This means she was definitely hit by a car when she was running the highway. She is also heartworm and anaplasmosis positive because when it rains it pours. Please help if you can and share! https://gofund.me/7b5ed163 Or-Please write THUMBALINA in the notes:Venmo @redfernanimalrescuePayPal redfernanimalrescue@gmail.comCash app $redfernanimalrescue Super sweet and spunky Thumbelina, or Lina for short, was saved from a highway in Texas were she was seen hugging the concrete wall, petrified, as cars sped past at high speeds. Thummbelina managed to squeeze under the drain holes in the concrete and pinned herself between two concrete barriers. We're happy this girl was lucky enough to navigate that situation and that some kind souls got her to the rescue. Thumbalina is very shy upon first meet but she’s a huge lover once she’s comfortable with you. She likes to play outside. She will play bow when she wants to play but sometimes tricks you and will roll over on her back for pets when you get close. And keep those pets coming! If you stop she will nudge you with her head or hit you with her paw into pet submission! She plays very well with other dogs but prefers submissive dogs because she feels threatened by dogs who are more mouthy. Getting cozy in bed is her favorite time of the day, but she must be a hot sleeper because she doesn’t enjoy being under blankets. She's still learning to cuddle properly-  currently she's made it to snuggling right below the back of your knee. We are looking for a family to love and cherish her. We would love to see her go to a home with another dog and children because they help her come out of her shell. Thumbalina is currently being fostered in San Antonio, Texas, patiently waiting for a committed adopter or foster to jump back on the highway, safely, headed to Denver and her new life in Colorado! Not available until the end of February. ##2267702##

Story
Hi, I'm Stormy! I'm a social butterfly- knowing no stranger. I'm a 1 year old Pomeranian/Blue Heeler mix. I was adopted 3 months ago and returned to the shelter (no fault of my own) on my 1 year birthday. I'm sweet, charming, playful and full of energy. Take me home and let's have fun! If you're interested in adopting me, fill out an adoption application online at www.polkcountyhumanesociety.org/adopt where you will also find a link to reserve me for an appointment. Some pets are in foster homes or may already have an appointment scheduled, so the appointment is important to make sure I will be available to meet you when you come. Polk County Humane Society is located in Bolivar, Missouri, but also makes transports to the Denver, CO, Des Moines, IA and St. Louis areas twice monthly. For potential adopters in those areas, we can do a virtual visit using FaceTime or another app. Just request an appointment using the same link, but note that you want the visit to be virtual. We will call you at the time of the visit once it is confirmed. For long distance transports to Colorado and Iowa, there is an additional $100 fee to cover the cost of the transport ($65) and a health certificate from a veterinarian ($35). For transports to St. Louis, the additional fee is $50 to help cover gas. Going that last mile home for our sweet pets! All of our pets are neutered or spayed, have vaccinations appropriate for their age, treated with flea/tick/heartworm prevention, dewormed and dogs are also microchipped. #adoptdontshop ##2204949##
