To provide rescue, behavioral, and adoption services for homeless pets and to work towards a nationwide goal of ensuring a happy, healthy home for every pet!
Animal Rescue of the Rockies is a 501(c)3 non profit Colorado corporation. Organized in 2003 by a group of friends who wanted to provide an alternative to the county shelter, A.R.R. has successfully provided foster homes and subsequent permanent homes to hundreds of dogs and cats to date. Because we don't have a shelter facility, we work exclusively with foster homes to give homeless pets the chance to socialize in a home environment. This gives them the advantage of transitioning to their new forever homes much more easily and quickly.
A.R.R. also works closely with other rescue groups in Colorado. We help with transport, fostering, and adoptions whenever we can. Foster homes are always needed, and there never seem to be enough! If you can open your heart and home temporarily to help save a pet's life, we would love to hear from you!
Our organization is comprised entirely of volunteers. We depend on community support through fundraising, donations, and proceeds from our thrift shop in Breckenridge, "For Pets' Sake," to run our rescue operations.

Hi, I'm Ava! If you are looking for the most adorable and affectionate puppy in the world, that's me!
Why I'm awesome:
๐ I'm 4 months old and I love every adult, child, dog (and even cats!) that I meet.
๐ I am eager to please and easy to teach. I already know some commands and am fully crate trained.
Can you help me find a loving home, either with another playful dog or a family that enjoys walking and hiking? Thank you! โฅ๏ธ
For more information about Ava, go to the link in the bio.

Introducing ARR's 12 Days of Cat-mas, where for the next 12 days we will feature adorable adult cats needing a forever home.
๐SPECIAL GIFT OFFER: Adopters of any of the 12 adult cats featured as part of the 12 Days of Cat-mas will receive a $25 gift card as a thank you for giving a deserving adult cat a second chance!
Day #1 is Sooner
About Sooner:
Sheโs large and in charge. ๐น Sheโs a sassy mama who has suffered a lot of loss in her life but she is doing better every day.
Sooner needs a family with:
๐ A quiet home with no children or rambunctious animals (calm cats are fine).
๐ Someone who will be patient while she decides that they are worthy of her attention.
๐ Someone willing to help her lose weight (sheโs on diet food and eats it with no issue).
๐ Someone who is willing to monitor her mood and decide whether or not to taper her off of her medication.
๐ String toys. Not mice, not crinkly toys, not balls. Sooner is picky about her playthings!
Find more about her or apply to adopt her via the link in the bio.
Please help us find Sooner a forever home for the holidays by sharing this post with anyone who you think would be a good fit for her. (Maybe it's you?!)

Poor Trixie was recently adopted, but then she was returned because it really wasn't a good fit for her. ๐ฅ (What she needs most is a tranquil home with people who are around most of the time.)
We know her perfect forever family is out there somewhere! Will you please help us spread the word about her?
About Trixie:
๐ Sheโs easygoing, submissive and calm. She loves being petted and brushed.
๐ She enjoys going for two daily walks, walking well on her leash without pulling, then happily napping for much of the day.
๐ She's very well-behaved. She gets along with older children and similarly sized dogs, sleeps in her crate at night, and is fully house trained.
To apply to adopt her, go to the link in the bio.

Bear is 60 pounds of sweetness and the only thing cooler than his piercing eyes is how big his heart is. He loves giving and getting attention! Unfortunately, he's been waiting awhile for a family because he needs a family that is active and that has a fenced yard.
If you are someone who can take him for long walks every day, then don't pass up this energetic very good boy. He's a sweetheart!
PS He is housetrained and gets along great with other dogs.
To meet him, please apply to adopt him via the link in the bio!

Marcos is a fun-loving, energetic 3-year old dog that always has a smile on his face. Sadly, he's having a hard time finding a home because he needs a home with no other pets or kids.
If you are someone who just wants one perfect dog to dote on and have the love and loyalty returned in spades, please consider Marcos! You can apply via the link in the bio.
(Or please spread the word about him so this deserving boy can find his forever family!)

Hi I'm Red, a very good girl. Will you please help me find a new family in time for the holidays? I've been waiting for a long time!
About me:
โฅ๏ธI'm 2 years old and I'm a very good girl.
โฅ๏ธ I'm sweet, friendly and frisky--I don't know what I like more: cuddling on the couch with my human or frolicking with other dogs in the yard!
โฅ๏ธ I like going on walks (especially exploring and sniffing everything in sight!)
โฅ๏ธ I'm very smart so I learn commands really fast, especially when there are treats involved!
โฅ๏ธ I would LOVE a family with another dog and I'd even be okay with a child or two if they are calm and nice to me!
I think if you meet me, you will fall in love with me. Let's see if I'm right! Apply to adopt me via the link in the bio!

Have a soft spot in your heart for senior dogs? Please consider adding Pete to your family!
Pete is a friendly and frisky 10-year old that has lots of love and undying loyalty left to give.
He'd love a home with another dog to hang with, and he'd even be fine with cats.
Senior dogs are often overlooked but if you've ever loved one and had one love you, you know how awesome they are! So please spread the word!
Learn more about Pete and apply to adopt him via the link in the bio.
