2 Blondes All Breed Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dog rescue based in the Denver metro area. We are dedicated to saving dogs from overcrowded, high-kill shelters and placing them in loving forever homes. Through partnerships with committed volunteers, accredited veterinarians, trainers, boarding facilities, and shelters, we strive to help achieve a No-Kill Nation.

Since our founding in 2015, we have rescued, fostered, and adopted over 12,000 animals. We primarily serve the Denver, Colorado Springs, and Fort Collins metropolitan areas. Due to our reliance on established veterinary relationships and volunteer support, we do not facilitate out-of-state adoptions or placements outside our general service areas.

As a non-breed-specific rescue, we welcome both purebred and mixed-breed dogs. Because most rescue dogs’ lineage is unknown, breed designations are based on veterinary recommendations and cannot be guaranteed. Additionally, many of the dogs we take in require medical care for conditions such as broken bones, heartworm disease, and skin issues. These treatments are generally completed before adoption, though some medical needs may require ongoing care, which will be fully disclosed to adopters.

Your support enables us to continue rescuing, fostering, and caring for at-risk animals. Thank you for being part of our mission!

Dedicated to saving young puppies and their mama’s.

CPR fosters first opened their homes in 2005, our CPR community has helped us rescue and find homes for over 16,000 puppies. We provide love, safety, and health care for our puppies while we search for their new forever family. A CPR puppy is always a CPR puppy. We adopt exclusively out of our adoption center in Parker and work side by side with trainers and veterinarians to make your adoption experience a good one. Colorado Puppy Rescue’s volunteers are allowed into every aspect of the organization and can attest to our genuine care and love for our puppy’s health and well-being. We value our volunteers, fosters, and adopters tremendously; we could not run the rescue without them. Thank you for considering Colorado Puppy Rescue and helping those who cannot help themselves.

The Colorado Saint Bernard Rescue (CSBR) is a volunteer 501c3 non-profit dedicated to the re-homing of abandoned, abused, and unwanted Saint Bernard and Saint Bernard mixes.  It is our mission to save the world 150 pounds at a time!

CSBR is 100% volunteer-based and we exist solely on donations and rely on fundraising to help these dogs in need.  All of our dogs our fostered in private homes where they are provided extra love, nurturing and training as needed.  Our generous donors and sponsors help provide medical care (big dogs = big vet bills), food and anything else these dogs need, in order to get them ready for their forever homes.  At CSBR, we never turn away a dog because of an expensive medical condition.  We make every effort to ensure that the right dog is placed in the right home.

Ho-Bo Care Boxer Rescue is a non-profit, all volunteer group in Colorado committed to rescuing homeless, abused and unwanted Boxers and Boxer mixes. The Boxers taken in by Ho-Bo Care come from shelters, homes where they can no longer stay, or the streets. Often the dogs are starved, sick, injured, or neglected. They need shelter, food, medicine, medical treatment and sometimes basic training. Mostly, they need owners willing to provide a safe, healthy home and lots of love and attention. The Boxer thrives with human companionship and needs to be included as a family member to be happy. Ho-Bo Care volunteers endeavor to fulfill this need for every dog that enters the rescue.

Ho-Bo Care volunteers spend countless hours on the phone and on the road despite having full-time jobs. Volunteers respond to requests to take dogs in, transport the dogs, arrange medical and foster care, conduct home and reference checks, fundraise, and provide education and resources to adopters and the public. Because Ho-Bo Care is an all-volunteer organization, all money raised and donated goes back to the dogs.

Ho-Bo Care was formed to rescue and be an advocate for the Boxer. That advocacy includes educating adopters about the special characteristics of the breed and the responsibilities of ownership. All rescue dogs are spayed or neutered, fully vetted and micro-chipped. Ho-Bo Care promotes spaying and neutering to avoid irresponsible breeding, which leads to overpopulation. Through education and outreach, Ho-Bo Care endeavors to keep and place more Boxers in loving homes, and keep them out of shelters.

The mission of Karl’s Canine Krew is to help adoptable companion animals find homes through fostering and adoption while helping to relieve overpopulation of shelters through education, spay/neuter, and community outreach.

Karl’s Canine Krew is a 501c3 nonprofit, PACFA licensed, foster based rescue located primarily in Colorado Springs, Colorado. We bring animals that are awaiting euthanasia or struggling to find homes in shelters locally in Colorado as well as shelters out of state in New Mexico, Texas, and Kansas into our foster’s loving homes. All animals receive any necessary medical care, as well as a microchip before they find their fur-ever family!

• Successfully placed approximately 600 dogs a year in forever homes.
• Drastically reduced the number of unwanted litters and homeless animals who were being euthanized
• Provide education on the importance of spaying/neutering and info on local low-cost or free resources
• Went from saving large & giant breeds to taking in all cases who need our help and care 

We want all of our animals in foster homes, thus, we want to consistently increase our number of fosters and volunteers to save more lives. We are always open to support from local businesses & individuals — financial donation, dog/cat food, animal supplies (crates, leashes, collars, etc.) or even sharing us on social media. We operate solely on the donations and support from our community. We are immensely proud of this relationship and hope to increase it as we continue growing as a rescue.

No Kill Colorado’s mission is to help Make Colorado the Safest State for Homeless Pets. Through advocacy, legislation, clinics, adoption and other events, we are working to save every healthy or treatable homeless pet entering the Colorado shelter system.

No Kill Colorado works with organizations across the state.  Our programs and services have reached from the southern border with New Mexico, north to Fort Collins and far west to the Utah border in Grand Junction. In order to do that, the organization embraces and advocates shelters and rescues to utilize the No Kill Equation to save every healthy treatable pet.

The No Kill Equation is made up of 11 programs and services that enable shelter and communities to become No Kill.  These programs and services are equally important and must be implemented comprehensively to prevent the killing of any healthy or treatable homeless pet.

Old Dogs New Digs is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (all-volunteer) organization dedicated to helping homeless and displaced senior dogs and cats. We focus on getting senior animals into loving homes and raise funds to support their health and well-being. ODND partners with animal shelters, rescues, and vet clinics – mostly in Maine, Colorado, and New Mexico.  We assist with foster or forever home placement, make financial contributions toward vet care or special food/medications, and raise awareness about seniors in-need. We also assist those who have fallen on hard times, unable to afford quality food and medical care for their aging dog or cat.  You can learn more about our Community Assistance Program here.  We have a physical location (and volunteers) in Colorado but as the organization started in Maine, we have a strong volunteer presence there as well.

Pawsitive Pathways is a small but mighty nonprofit based in rural Kim, Colorado. We are dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming dogs from underserved, underfunded, and overcrowded Colorado shelters. Many of these dogs face high risk of euthanasia due to limited space, scarce resources, or restrictive municipal codes. Through individualized care, training, and rehabilitation, we give each dog time to decompress, build trust, and develop the social skills needed to thrive as family companions. With 40 acres secured for a future purpose-built rehab facility and statewide outreach through education and advocacy, we aim to create lasting change for all rural Colorado dogs and the communities that care for them.

With just a few volunteer team members and only three years in operation, Pawsitive Pathways has already rescued and placed over 110 dogs into their forever homes and helped save 200+ more from euthanasia, surrender, or abandonment through transport, networking, and resource-sharing. Imagine how many more lives we could change with your support! Join our Relay for Rescue fundraising team and help us make an even bigger impact for rural Colorado dogs.

Sloppy Kisses Animal Rescue is a volunteer-based 501(3)c charitable organization that was founded in 2018 by a group of animal advocates in Colorado.  It was formed to rescue as many stray and homeless animals as possible by partnering with shelters in areas that are inundated with stray and relinquished animals. Sloppy Kisses Animal Rescue works to transport the animals to Colorado, fosters them in temporary homes, provides for their medical needs, brings them up to date on vaccinations, spay/neuters them if they aren’t already, and adopts them to permanent homes.  This is accomplished through working with a network of volunteers, foster caregivers, local veterinarians, animal trainers, and donations!

We also work with our local community to provide assistance with re-homing pets and providing resources such as behavioral and medial to people who are considering surrendering their pet in an effort to keep pets in their homes and out of the shelter system.
