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.
