Story
If you're searching for your new best friend, look no further!  Reggie is a 2 year old pit mix who found himself set to be euthanized at a Texas shelter because of his weight.  Thankfully, a good samaritan saw just how wonderful this guy is and decided to give him a second chance.  Reggie is SO grateful and can't wait to have a family of his very own.  He loves people, especially kids, and can't seem to get enough belly rubs!   Reggie has since been recovering at a foster home in TX and they cannot say enough great things about this boy.  He rides the elevator in their apartment building and enjoys going to the dog park to socialize with other pups!  We would love to get Reggie to Colorado, so if you can open your heart to adopt Reggie, please apply!  If you would like to adopt/foster please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $250 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip. Please note, Circle 2 Rescue cannot guarantee the breed, composition or ages of our dogs as we usually have limited history prior to them entering the rescue. ##2153716##

If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a sweet, goofy puppy, Reef is eager to meet you.

Shelter visiting hours are 12 pm to 4 pm - Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays Please fill out an adoption application at mamcorescue.org or attend one of our Saturday adoption event. Events are held each Saturday from 12 pm to 5 pm at our office: 2721 W Oxford Ave., Suite 6 Englewood, CO 80110 *In order to protect our puppies, we do not allow puppies to attend open events until they have a minimum of two vaccinations. Puppies who are available, but not listed on our weekly Facebook event, are considered "deposit only" puppies. These puppies will only attend the event IF they are reserved through a deposit. You can check the list of puppies attending the open event by checking the event: https://www.facebook.com/MAMCORescue  At MAMCO we understand that in order to continue rescuing moms and babies, we must stretch our finances as far as we are able. For this reason we use variable adoption pricing. By assigning higher adoption fees to high demand moms and puppies, we are able to rescue more families in need.The money raised through these adoptions acts as a benefactor to moms and puppies in our care who require expensive veterinary treatments, have behavioral issues, or need more time to find a home. We often reduce the adoption fees on these harder-to-place moms and puppies to help them find forever families. Adoption fees vary. Applications can be filled out at mamcorescue.org. Unless otherwise stated, all of our dogs are mixed breeds. We never guarantee the size, breed, or temperment of any of our puppies.  ##2215486##

Hello, My name is Dwight and I am a pit mix. Not exactly sure with what as my parents have never tested. What I know is I am a good boy with lots of love to give! I am between 6 and 8 years old and I come with a clean bill of health. I have some good years ahead of me. I need a new place to live with people that will love me like my parents would. I have gotten along with most dogs but my current situation at home with small sisters has stressed me out and I have become reactive. I bit one of my sisters and I need to be in a place without small kids. I love to cuddle with my big humans and I love to go for walks. I will play toss and fetch for a hard few throws and I will go anywhere with you in the car. My parents are devastated but we feel this is the best thing to do for everyone. Please give me a look, I would love to meet you!

Story
Blocky headed cutie pie! Meet Rufus! A fun loving boy looking forward to settling down after the numerous transitions in his life recently. Rufus enjoys playing with toys, going on long walks and hikes, and opportunities for casual recreation with other dogs! Once settled down and comfortable in his routine, Rufus is likely to be a couch potato -- after a long day of fun, he can't wait to pile on the couch for movie nights with his new family!Our walkers tell us that when they enter his kennel to leash him up, he will greet them energetically and enthusiastically. Once outside, he may alternate between pulling hard because the smells are just so darn enticing and then relaxing and walking calmly. When they take him into one of the play yards, they better have a good supply of tennis balls because he LOVES a good game of fetch and when the weather is warm, a nice dip (well actually a lot of splashing) in one of the play pools.Rufus will only be rehomed to a family with children 10 years of age and older and is recommended for a home without other dogs at this time. Meet with him today! Primary Color: Brown Weight: 73.2 Age: 2yrs 2mths 1wks

Story
Brutis is hoping for a calm and stable home where he can feel his best. This sweet boy can take some time to become comfortable, so he'll appreciate a gentle and patient adopter. Life in the shelter has been a bit hard for Brutis but he is ready to start down the road to feeling better and is working closely with our behavior team to develop skills that will aid him in learning to relax or bounce back with greater resilience.Brutis may not have the greatest kennel presence, but don't let that stop you from meeting him. We anticipate Brutis may take a bit of time to adjust to a new routine. We've heard from our volunteers that on his walks he becomes confident, attentive to them, enjoys taking his time to stop and sniff, and will politely show you his gentlemanly sits and paw shakes.Brutis deserves a home where he can be loved and cherished, where his gentle spirit can shine. He will only be rehomed to a family with children 10 years of age or older. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 41.2 Age: 3yrs 2mths 0wks

Lexi is a ball of sunshine! She's hearing impaired, so she's hoping for a thoughtful adopter who can help her navigate the world.

Story
Luna is a five-year-old boxer with lots of love to give! She is a very energetic and playful dog. Luna has been previously attacked on a walk, so other dogs make her nervous. She is potty trained, goofy, loves humans, loves pets, play, and learning, and would do best an only dog with loving caretakers. Luna is allergic to poultry and needs anti-itch shots every 3 months or daily pills to avoid her getting red, inflamed, burning, itchy, and very irritated spots all over her body. Due to Luna's breed, she also needs antiacid medication. When she is on both, she feels so much better and enjoys her life so much more. Luna likes to spend her days playing, receiving pets, and taking naps. She is very smart and trainable, and definitely wants to bond with her person. Her cleverness can sometimes lead to her being a little mischievous, but with her new trainer, we are working on self-control, calmness, enrichment, and making good choices. Luna's mom just passed and is now hoping to find her next loving home. Luna will come with some free training sessions with her behavior specialist. Her owner's family is waiving the adoption fee. This is a courtesy post for them. If you would like to adopt please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  ##2204779##

Meet Penny! Her foster parents call her Sweet P for a reason - she is the cuddliest, most loving girl you'll ever meet. Her favorite things are playing fetch, zoomies around the yard, and snuggling with her foster parents on the sofa. She absolutely adores being around her humans. She can also display some leash reactivity but her foster parents are working on it with her and it's quickly improving! Penny demonstrated some resource guarding behaviors in the past so would likely do best in a home without other pets. ##1528906##
