Story
Meet Bill D, a sweet and energetic Australian Shepherd mix who's looking for a special home! He gets along great with other dogs and loves to play, but he can still be a little nervous at times. When startled, he may try to dash away, so he'll need a secure, loving environment where he can feel safe. He would do best in a home with kids aged 14 and up, as he can get jumpy and a bit mouthy when excited. But once he feels comfortable, he absolutely loves being pet and will wiggle with excitement! He's full of potential and ready for a patient family to help him flourish.

Story
We call this gorgeous gal of the Thanksgiving Litter "Mashed Potato." She's as soft as a good whipped mashed potato, with long collie hair and longer legs. She's got a collie nose, too. A dog or kid sibling for her to play with is ideal. But after settling in here, she's become quite a snuggler, too. She's learning to sit and will now sit for treats and sit next to me to be picked up. She's inquisitive and loves to explore the backyard. She may make a good hiking buddy. She's had a bath, feet shave and belly shave and she did fine. She likes to give good hugs, as well. She is spayed and ready for her new home. Her hair is long and will need regular grooming. I put her weight and age into Puppy Calculator and she came out predicting to be 65-75 lbs!! She's going to need a yard and room to roam. She's smart and easily trainable. She is food motivated and is always eager to please us.

Story
Junie, Australian Shepherd/Heeler, 4.5 yrs., 40-45 lbs. Junie is a very loving and loyal dog. She is the boss and loves keeping Cooper in line. She likes to go on walks and explore with him. She gets along with other dogs great, but she will growl when she has had her fill. She will not nip or bite. She is a bit more relaxed and laid back than Cooper, but still loves to play around with him. She also is a bit of an attention hog. She will stare through your soul until you acknowledge her. She is very in tune with human emotion and will snuggle with you when you are sad. She’s a very sweet soul. She also may be more human than dog. Cooper, Blue Heeler, 4.5 yrs., 40-45 lbs. Cooper tends to be shy at first but warms up pretty quick. He has a lot of energy and loves playing with Junie going on walks and exploring with her. He LOVES attention. He is a very loving and loyal dog with the silliest personality. I think he may be more human than dog. He gets along with other dogs but does take a minute to acclimate to them. He loves to give kisses (I think he was a lizard in his past life…hahaha). They are a bonded pair. They have grown up together and I would hate to separate them. They are soulmates and I would love for them to stay together. I understand that this is a lot to ask, but they are so worth it! We are having to re-home them due to a move across the country. This means we will be living out of a small camper and traveling all over the southeast. I don’t feel that this is a fair life for my pups to live. They love to run and play and wouldn't get this freedom if they come with us.

Story
Monkey is a 20 lbs, 1 year old guy. While he looks like a bearded collie, he is actually an Australian Shepherd/Cairn Terrier mix. Monkey likes to monkey around. He doesn’t climb trees though, nope that’s not his style. Monkey climbs fences! He’s a master of it! Although, he tends to do it just to get where his person is. Monkey bonds very hard to his human and would very much appreciate a person looking to bond with him. He’s dog and cat friendly, but little humans and strangers are scary for him. Monkey is working on his leash skills but for now a securely fenced in yard is required because leash cv walks aren’t his jam. At 1 year old, Monkey hasn’t seen much of the world yet. He was raised in the same home as his canine mom, dad, and siblings since birth and is just learning about life outside of his home now that he’s in foster care. Monkey is looking for a patient, affectionate, human that’s home often to spend time with him. Monkey is in foster in Fort Lupton, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/monkey.

Story
Miss Kahlua is ready to get the party started! This high energy, compact, Aussie/Spaniel mix comes in at a whopping 35 lbs at only around 2-3 years old. She knows nothing of the concept of personal space, BUT she has a giant brain and is eager to learn and please her peeps. Kahlua LOVES her humans and is a Velcro dog. She’s affectionate and snuggly. Kahlua will do well in an active, adventurous home. She’s dog friendly after a good introduction, however she’s perfectly content being an only dog, as well. Kahlua seems house trained at her foster home and sleeps quietly in her crate at night. She’s NOT a fan of staying in her crate during the day while her foster parents work and she will verbally complain about that a bit, so she’s best suited in a home without shared walls. A large yard for games of fetch is more her jam. Kahlua is being fostered in Greeley, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/kahlua/.

Story
Ernie has the biggest ear-to-ear smile you’ll ever see! This happy guy has much to smile about, too! Ernie entered MHCR as a transfer from a local CO shelter where he found himself unclaimed after his stray hold. Ernie is a little dude, around 20 lbs, and only a year old. The shelter was a horrifying place to him and exhibited what we, in the dog world, call stranger danger. Due to this behavior, he wasn’t an adoptions candidate for them. So, he came to us in hopes a foster home would be just what he needed. Turns out, it was! Ernie take a beat to warm up to new people, but once he does he’s a very loving, sweet, and affectionate guy. He’s good with dogs and likes to play, but he doesn’t love dogs all up in his business right off the bat. He seems very at ease with kiddos, too! Ernie is crate trained and does well on a leash. His favorite thing is snuggling in blankets and playing with them. He loves to run laps and is quite a high jumper (likely competed in the Olympics in a past life). While it has waned, Ernie does still struggle with stranger danger and will do best in a home patient humans that don’t have a chaotic home with new people in and out. It took him a few days to get used to his foster dad coming and going, but now they’re bffs. He will need a dedicated family that will continue his controlled socialization and acclimation. If you think Ernie could be for you, please apply! Ernie is being fostered in Longmont, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/ernie/.

Story
ADOPTION FEE: $525 Meet the 7 Dwarves! These crazy cute pups are ready to find their forever homes! From his amazing foster: "Bashful Bash is a loveable load. He has the most easy going personality and the sweetest disposition. He's been amazingly patient with and kind to our toddler and preschooler. Nothing is safe from his puppy teething ways (as it is with all puppies), but he is eager to please and working on behaving himself! He is content to be held in your arms, but he has a very playful side and likes to wrestle with his foster brother and sister. He is currently housetraining and is doing well with going potty outside if prompted. He is a handsome loving boy - what else can you ask for?!" We are a foster-based rescue and generally do not have pups available to meet at our office except during adoption events on Saturdays. Not every dog attends every adoption event. Interested in this pup? The first step is to complete our online application by clicking the "Apply for Adoption" button. Please note that we are only able to finalize adoptions at events for approved adopters. The earlier you apply, the better as it takes time to review and approve applications. We host adoption events almost every Saturday from 11:00am to 2:00pm at our rescue office (1721 W Harmony, unit 102, Fort Collins, Co 80526)! Check our Instagram and/or Facebook page for info on where we will be hosting adoptions this weekend! All Aboard Animal Rescue saves dogs and puppies from high-kill shelters in other states. These pups are brought to Colorado, where they are required to be spayed or neutered - breaking the cycle of unwanted litters of puppies who end up as strays! Please consider supporting us in this mission by adopting, fostering, volunteering, or donating.

Story
This sweet and spunky girl is a typical puppy with a heart full of love. Onyx is house-trained, kennel-trained, and already picking up basic commands - she’s as smart as she is adorable! Her favorite things include crinkly toys, chewing on bones, and giving the best hugs to her humans. Onyx also believes that every person and dog she meets is her new best friend - her joyful energy is truly contagious! She has a little mischievous side too and loves to hide under the coffee table when she’s chewing on something she maybe shouldn’t. Onyx is ready to bring her boundless love and charm to her forever home. Onyx is a 5-month-old mixed breed rescued from a high-intake shelter. This dog's adoption fee is $600 and includes up-to-date vaccinations, microchip, 4DX testing, and spay. Onyx is also tested with other dogs, children, kennel trained, and housebroken. She is not tested with cats. We would love for you to meet this dog and see if she might be a good fit for your home. The first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org. Pending approval, your application is valid for 1 year, and you will be eligible to request a hold on an individual animal for the Saturday adoption event. The hold does not require that you take the animal home, but ensures you get to meet and make an adoption decision prior to other applicants. Also pending approval, you will be able to acquire foster home contact information, so you inquire on personalities of specific animals. We do offer midweek private adoption appointments for approved applicants pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Because we are 100% foster-based, private adoption appointments are only offered for individual animals. (If interested in viewing multiple animals at one time, we encourage you to attend our adoption events!) Please note, we do not have the ability to process adoption applications at our adoption events, so please plan accordingly. If an application is submitted past 5pm on Monday-Thursday, it will begin review the following day. If submitted on Friday-Sunday, it will begin review on Monday. It takes approximately 1-2 business days for an application to be processed. Our adoption events take place every Saturday from 10am-Noon at Pet Supplies Plus (Front Range Village, 2912 Council Tree Ave #100, Fort Collins, 80525). *Our annual Deck the Paws adoption event will be held on December 21 from 11am-1pm at Maxline Brewing (2724 McClelland Dr #190, Fort Collins, CO 80525). We will not be hosting an event on Saturday, December 28 and will offer private adoption appointments December 22-31. Happy Holidays!* For additional questions regarding meeting this dog please contact us via text/email at 970.699.6772, or contact@bounceanimalrescue.org. We apologize for any inconvenience, but due to a high volume of inquiries, calls and voicemails regarding adoption will not be returned. Thank you for choosing adoption! If you would like more information on our organization please visit our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org.

It’s your future bestie, Mr. Dae Dae here! I’m a charming six-year-old Australian Kelpie and Border Collie mix! My friendly disposition makes me a delight to be around, and my smarts shine through as I quickly learn new tricks and commands. I thrive in the great outdoors, and hiking is one of my absolute favorite activities! While I’m a social butterfly with people, I’d be happiest as the only dog in the house, where I can be the center of your world. December 2, 2024, 4:48 pm
