Story
Meet Duke, the heart-stealing, senior Chihuahua mix who's had quite the journey to find his forever sofa—er, home! This little guy is 16 years young and 18 lbs of pure love, with all of the spirit of a much younger pup (minus the puppy hassles.) Once he’s made himself at home, Duke’s house manners are impeccable — in fact, he’s a bit of a homebody and would prefer to chill on the couch with you than go out. He does enjoy a daily walk, and is a total PRO on a leash.     When it comes to socializing, Duke is a real charmer with a solid gold record with dogs, cats and humans. Oh, and while he's got no interest in guarding resources, he does have a bit of an obsession with his food bowl—and your proximity to it. He’s highly food motivated and extra responsive to vocal commands if there’s a treat involved.   Our boy isn’t much of a barker, but he’ll let you know if someone’s tiptoeing around the yard. And while he might not hear as well as he used to, that just means he's not bothered by loud noises—what a champ! Just a heads up: avoid touching his feet; he's not a fan.   Energy-wise, Duke's all about the easy life. A stroll in the yard or a short walk will do, and then it’s straight back to snuggling up.    The ideal home for Duke? He needs an adult human who's more into relaxing than running and who appreciates the finer, quieter moments in life. While a companion dog isn’t necessary, having someone around most of the time is essential for him. Preferably no - or minimal - stairs.   Ready to let this lovable gentleman into your heart and home?

Story
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 This dog is a courtesy listing and not one of our dogs.

Story
  Tenderness and time are key to winning 4-year-old Jasmine Jane’s trust. The more the shy 19-pound brown beauty settles into her foster home, the more comfortable she feels, revealing her genuine sweetness to her foster mom, cuddling with her, resting her head on her, giving her paw to ask for love and showing her belly for rubs. Fond of burrowing under the covers in typical Chi fashion, Jasmine Jane’s just as fond of engaging with her doggy foster friend, playing with toys and balls, playing fetch and going for walks, honing her leash skills along the way. Highly food and treat motivated, eager to please and learning quickly, she currently knows “come,” “sit,” “stay,” “down” and “no,” and is almost fully crate and house-trained. Now what Jasmine Jane needs is a calm household, preferably with another playful pup, and patient adopters to bolster her confidence, further her socialization with people and other dogs, complete her training, including her commands, and teach her how wonderful JOY feels!   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!
